A WorldNews mod removed this comment and banned me from WorldNews, claimed in the modlog for ‘trolling, islamophobia’. An admin then restored the comment, but the ban is apparently still in place.
Does this mod’s summary judgement of this comment mean I’m forever banned from WorldNews?
EDIT: I realized you can filter by mods to find out who banned me. It was @Newsman, but I looked about a couple hours later and they’re no longer mods in World News, but looks like I’m still banned. Oh well, at least they’ve been shown the door. That’s progress.
I think bans are permanent, at least for now. I saw a post a few weeks ago from a mod complaining they couldn’t unban someone. There’s a lot of work being done on Lemmy mod tools, hopefully unbanning will be possible soon.
I don’t see why its not like blocking. List of users that have engaged on the site with little circles with a slash that can be white or red.
bans can be reverted on Lemmy, I’ve seen that happen in modlogs
