Isn't Calvin a communist?

They nerfed the ALT button and I uninstalled it. They didn't even add a toggle, they just decided using the extra info mode with your mouse is bad and removed it.

I didn't say it doesn't add functionality. I said it removes functionality. It can do both. You're treating this like an argument, but I don't see any disagreement except that we have differing personal preferences. A toggle would make us both happy.

Which mod is queerphobic? Can I see the evidence?

I couldn't get much out of Wikipedia, but I've been reading Reddit, and one person suggested that Jesus only said to give to the poor and trust in the lord. That He didn't say that the way to salvation is to worship Jesus; Paul said that, and James and Peter said Paul was full of shit. If Jesus is the physical incarnation of the lord, and people worship that physical incarnation, is that idolatry? I mean, the golden calf was a physical representation of the lord, right? Isn't Jesus a physical representation too? If Jesus says it's okay then that's that, but if it was only Paul saying to worship Jesus rather than just to respect Him as a teacher, then it's idolatry, right?

I don't like bringing up the scoreboard just to upgrade my abilities, it's too much visual clutter. We had functionality and the developers removed it. They didn't even add a toggle, they just decided that the way I play the game is wrong. I don't like taking options away from players, especially when it comes to UI, which can be very important when it comes to visual disorders such as colourblindness or autism.

If you were never a member of the community, then you've lost nothing from being banned, and the mod was right to decide that your comment wasn't a good faith contribution from a member of the community.

[–] MindTraveller@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 days ago

It does. You've opened the conversation about voting as participation and helped us reach some new ideas on moderation practice. It's dialectics. As I said in another comment in this thread, I think the existence of posts like this is good even if this ban wasn't a problem.

Participating in a conversation ain't homework. And if you don't want to have a conversation, don't bother replying.

I wanna add that I like your community, I like how you stood up to that rogue admin, I like when you annoy carnists, I like your ban of OP, and I also like that c/fediverselore has posts like this. This community is a tool for calling out mod decisions, and some of those decisions will be good ones that don't need calling out. It's still better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

Justified ban imo. You weren't there to discuss veganism as a vegan, you were there for drama. It's not spam when they make a lot of posts to their own community. Unless the content is hateful, the correct response is to block.

Users cannot vote in a community that has banned them. If the mod wants to restrict voting only to people who vote in good faith, that's their prerogative. It's probably a good idea, it prevents downvote spam from bots and the like. When you have a community that has very different values from /all, maybe kicking the /all people who vote against the sub's values out is good. Voting is participation.
