no downvoting for specific communities? - SOLVED
no downvoting for specific communities? - SOLVED
I've recently noticed that downvotes don't stick for the community Greentext@sh.itjust.works.
Bug or design choice? Is there a work around? My account is with lemmy.world - do I need to log into a different instance to have full downvote capability?
SOLVED - they banned me for downvoting their fascist frogs

You're banned, happened 3 days ago

Looks like you got one from 30rock too, that's how I figured it out when it happened to me.
Some communities ban you if you down vote posts but aren't subscribed...
Especially if a mod made the post.
It's incredibly childish, but they do it because they're mad their post got downvoted

lol, thank you

Yeah, just block the sub so you stop seeing it, and if the mod has a bunch of other ones, just block the mod or it'll probably keep happening for their other subs.
But the ones who tend to do this, only care about their own posts. So if you don't see their posts, they won't ban you from anything else.

I have a question can mods see your votes. Can they see which subs you have and which communities you have blocked?
-
I'm not sure if instance matters, but yeah they can see how people vote in their sub and if they're subscribed. It's not like they can see anything outside of their subs tho.
That being said I got asked to mod a sub and it didn't exactly come with a handbook. I've just never put any effort into finding out how to do that stuff because it seems incredibly pointless.
Lemmy is small enough that a shit ton of people browse by all.

How are you sûre downvotes don't stick? They might take some time to arrive, but they should stick

Permanently Deleted

It's literally not that tho...
They got banned for down voting and not being subscribed (which is bullshit) but is verifiably what happened.
