Check the modlog for proof, a discussion post about moving this instance to an instance that shan’t be named now got removed for “linking to instance featuring pedo content”.
Ironically that exact possibility was reason for the discussion in the first place so seeing it happen this quickly is a bit funny.
Not sure how best to go about linking to said instance since it seems to get your content removed. DM’s would be the only solution I guess but not sure if those are checked as well.
I saw that post yesterday. It’s true but it says “mods” for me:
Kinda crazy when its linked at the sidebar.
here a link to the photon UI of my instance: https://photon.bookwormstory.social/modlog?community=18. It shows the names of moderators even to non moderators and admins. Feel free to double check yourself. I have no idea why it displays as a mod action for some but unless proven otherwise I’ll just adsume it’s buggy and not malicious
These actions are being taken by
.ml
site admin Arthur Besse / cypherpunks. There’s nothing I can do as a mere community mod ^^I can see that you downvoted besse’s comment asking for volunteers with three different accounts of yours. This downvote manipulation viewer is already proving useful.
It was incidental tbh. I keep seeing it on different accounts and just click the appropriate button. If I’d actually wanted to manipulate it, I wouldn’t have used 3 accounts named “ram” given kbin can see it, right? lmao
this comment was deleted by someone else for disclosing the identity behind a mod action, but since it was my identity being revealed i am choosing to reply to it.
As a moderator, you could and imo definitely should remove the links to that instance from the sidebar, and in their place put a note mentioning that sexualized drawings of children are not allowed here. I’m not really into anime but I have enjoyed some and I would rather that we could have a community for it here than not. But, that requires moderators who are willing to delete things like that (not to mention not link to it themselves).
Any volunteers?
