Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

There's an automated bot in LW that sends users the reason for why their content got removed or why they got banned, etc. Not only that, but every communities modlogs are public. You either could have received a reason by the bot or you could have checked the modlogs. And also, the title or the content is not the only factor I take into account when I remove someone's post. I, for example, also consider how the OP behaves in the comments section to determine if the post is made just for the OP to troll people or not. I might also lock the post if the post gets too many reports or there's too much drama going on in the comments section.
And by the way, the reason why I deleted it for rule 3 is very obvious:
Hi, I never received a bot message that I was aware of. I thought that the links I posted in the comments were providing examples of what I meant and helping to describe the question. I don't really understand why it was removed. I can see that this post was also locked and then unlocked seemingly.
I see, I guess the bot also has its own problems sometimes. Anyways, the problem indeed was your spam in the comments section. As I mentioned in the parent comment, I don't only take the title and the body of the post into account, but the behaviour in the comments section as well, which wasn't well as you can see in the photo above. This was ultimately spam or nonsense, therefore I decided to remove the whole post. In further posts, make sure to include them in the body of your post instead of spamming the articles in the comments section, editing a post is a feature in Lemmy. As for the lock, that was a missclick.
Hello,
Thanks for jumping in, seems reasonable
