Question, if someone pinged an admin to ban someone for being something dbzer0 doesn't want/like, would that be a step too far?

You want me to ban Kerfuffled?

I just got banned from blahaj for mistrademarking you, hope you're happy.

I'm happy I called dibs and that's definitely how trademarks work.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

No, just asking as they are my admin.

Why does this feel like a gotcha?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's not. If someone pinged you or the admins for violating the instance rules, would that be accepted?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Well it's one way to do it, but a report is usually preferable imo.

It would be bizarre on the part of the pinger, at the very least.
