Its a shame because they’re prominent voice on lemmy. Good on the admins for not tolerating this. I don’t understand the point of targeting a person you don’t like on the internet just because they said something that upset you and spamming their post with downvotes. If you don’t like someone block their ass and be done with it. I agree with the perspective that its harassment (and an incredibly petty ineffective form of it at that)

    Yes, mass downvoting things for no reason is different from downvoting things you disagree with. If you go down a page and downvote every artifact there, and then illustrations, and then ruins, at some point it becomes apparent that it’s not because of a very eclectic and specific aesthetic preference. I’m sorry if that’s too complex for you to understand.

      I mean, if you’re downvoting everybody’s page, and claiming that you just disagree with everything they post, then yeah, I can see why they would ban you.

      Unfortunately for you, you’re not exactlu sunshine and rainbows, so I can imagine people aren’t exactly willing to just take you at your word.

      I don’t care, I am just pointing out the hypocrisy of the situation.

        Except it wasn’t everything they posted, even by their own admission, in this very comment thread, no less:

        Unfortunately for you, you’re not exactlu sunshine and rainbows, so I can imagine people aren’t exactly willing to just take you at your word.

        That’s legitimate.

        I don’t care, I am just pointing out the hypocrisy of the situation.

        But as pointed out, the two situations are different - including by the account of the ‘harassed’ user I’m being accused of victimizing.

            I kinda think you made your own bed.

            I apologize for the crime of downvoting comments that I disagree with. I’m sure this is from a place of utter detachment, ‘just pointing out the hypocrisy’ of something you can no longer claim to be hypocrisy. Now it’s just a generic “You deserved it”, lmao.

              Nah, I just read through the screenshot you posted a little more carefully and noticed how you were going from tiny communities with less than 50 users that you were not a part of and were downvoting that person’s posts, which is a direct violation of the spirit of the communities and the way the voting system on Lemmy is supposed to work.

              I went from thinking the admin’s a little heavy-handed to thinking you earned it. 👍

                YePowerTrippingBastards is not small, and 0 Governance is a comm I literally frequent and have voted in and commented in before.

                Sorry that you’re so desperately grasping at something to justify your original conclusion.

                But you don’t care, I’m sure. :)

                  No, I don’t care.

                  The person mentioned that there were numerous other places. I don’t know what they are. I’m not gonna sit here and go after them

                  I just think it’s funny you’re having a total meltdown about this.

                  It’s even better that you went out and made your own community in pifed.

                  What was Philip telling me that I need to go do? Oh, yeah, that I should go touch some grass. I wonder if I’m actually the person that needs to touch that grass.

                    No, I don’t care.

                    What are we on? 15 comments of “don’t care”, all of them peddling the same point despite it being repeatedly disproven?

                    The person mentioned that there were numerous other places. I don’t know what they are. I’m not gonna sit here and go after them

                    lmao

                    “The person mentioned there were numerous other places” than the ones I just mentioned to you, despite the other commenter having not made any comment since? What, are you linked by telepathy?

                    Trumpian level ‘thought’.
