Some guy I've never spoken to sent me a message threatening that he would never speak to me again and that he would excommunicate me from his dull and unpopular subreddit.

https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/42712477/22936485 @atomicpoet@piefed.social @atomicpoet@atomicpoet.org This friendly warning really has me rattled. He primarily talks about the fediverse. If he never talks to me again, it would be really bad. Unless I can find a way to make amends for my wrongs, I'll have to face the consequences. What do I do?

That is just bonkers.If you don't like it, you don't like it, but that's not someone else's problem. I had a young female co-worker for a while. Who came from a large female dominated family. Starting stories with girl this or girl that. I wasn't a girl, it didn't hurt my feelings. I always enjoyed talking with her.

Hell I'm from Missouri, where people have been known to use the word dude like they were smurfs.

My favorite is when you, OP, banned me from c/news for posting a non-right leaning article. Bro.

Isnt that exactly the point? It is an unpopular small community because it has a unique behaviour/conduct culture.

Just like Beehaw has a different culture from .world or .ml, this specific community has a unique culture and doesn't fit well with mainstream lemmy. That's atompoet's thing, if he wants it that way it is his community.

We don't call them subreddits here man

qrstuv@lemmy.sdf.org · 3 pts · 363d (1 reply)

Subreddit.

Bro!

funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 363d (5 replies)

you're saying I'm receiving this message because you find the word "subreddit" to be offensive?

njm1314@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 363d (4 replies)

What message? Who are you? You arent the OP so I don't know why on Earth you would think anything's directed at you. Unless you are him and this is your alt account that you forgot to log out of...

funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 363d (3 replies)

it was a joke. it's a reference to the post this thread is about.

Valmond@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 363d (1 reply)

Ha ha he even downvoted you (I rectified). What a humourless person.

funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 363d

thank you, that's kind - but I will say one of the reasons I prefer this place to r@?!&t is that the voting system has virtually no impact beyond comment order.

njm1314@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 363d

...sure.

Empricorn@feddit.nl · 10 pts · 364d

You're receiving this message because I consider

Stop.

I don't know you, and I wouldn't tolerate this intrusion from someone in public, at my door, or in an email. What you chose to be offended by is irrelevant...

webadict@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 363d

It's the same fucking guy who was abusing their mod powers before doing it again. They were banning people for "brigading" last week when called out for mod abuse.

So, I guess "brogading" will be a bannable offense now.

CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org · 8 pts · 363d

This is the second post I've seen about that. I'm starting to wonder if I should go downvote it as an experiment.

partial_accumen@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 364d (3 replies)

A ban for voting in a certain way? WTF is this reddit?

chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 11 pts · 364d (2 replies)

Mods can't see votes on reddit afaik, otherwise I'm sure they would

partial_accumen@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 364d (1 reply)

There was some reddit drama blow up a year or two ago where admins were banning if you upvoted people that used a banned word or phrase. I don't reddit anymore but I saw some posts here about it.

chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 363d

Fair point, that did happen and likely still does, I guess I was mostly just thinking about mods getting offended at people who downvote them and retaliating.

CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 364d

Me too. Told him to go ahead and ban me then as I don’t want to engage with some exclusionist bullshit.

nocturne@slrpnk.net · 5 pts · 364d (1 reply)

I got one too.
