I want to give my side of the story.

I removed one of person’s comment on the political community because it was reported, from what I can recall, it was a very long, borderline QAnon level rant that was antagonizing other users for essentially not buying into their conspiracy theory, which we took very seriously here.

This person was not even banned, and the modlog can confirm that.

I have had literally zero interaction with this person in any form other than this single comment removal. I have never sent this person a single DM or reply, and I think our admins can confirm that.

When I woke up the next morning, I saw 4 already removed reply to my comments from this person, and it appears that this person has already purged their own account.

Let it be known that I personally despise Fox News.

But as a moderator, I don’t see why this would be removed just because it came from Fox News, since it is factual info they got from the AP.

I’ve restored the post, OP, if you are Oak with people in the comments downvoting you for submitting Fox News, that’s your own business.

Elephant-Sized Apes That Once Roamed the Land Mysteriously Vanished. Now, Scientists Have an Answer. (www.vice.com)

Some 330,000 years ago, giant apes the size of elephants roamed the forests of southern China. Their massive teeth—once sold as a “dragon tooth” by a Hong Kong apothecary—gnawed tough leaves and devoured fruit. Then suddenly, while other primates were thriving, these supersized orangutan-like creatures vanished with...

Since we still ask submission title to match that of the article as part of the rule, please update your title.

Does this apply to Donetsk and Luhansk as well?

Want to make sure you are internally consistent here.

That’s a reasonable and well thought out answer, I can accept that.

Please update your submission title to reflect a potential change in the article title, as current rule does ask that they match.

Thank you.

This is not a news article, it’s a picture of a graph.

In the interest of discussion here, I’ll leave it up this time.

Please report this to us earlier, or, if you think our rule about articles only is unfair, I would like to hear your thoughts on if this should be allowed in the future.

There are many potential reasons that could be, such as relative lack of societal experience in a different country, trust in fellow countrymen due to language barrier, as well as loneliness due the lack of local support structure.

However, to suggest there is a “cultural tendency toward deference to authority” for the Chinese as if they are some kind of hive mind instead of individual people is discriminatory stereotyping. Please refrain from this in the future.

This article would be more appropriate for the politics community, since it is an opinion article from the interview of Peter Simi regarding Trump.

I would not consider this as news.

Note that Ukrinform is Ukranian state media.

MightBe OP ,

I apologize, and I do think changes are needed here.

As a first step, I have unbanned @naturalgasbad, as from the conversation detailed below, what he has done does not warrant a permanent ban at all.

I do take feedback extremely seriously, however, please allow us some time to figure out our next steps.

MightBe OP ,

I don’t think it is needed, considering !world is still relatively slow compared to many similar comms, and the latest lemmy.ml’s Israel Palestine megathread did not get much traction and sat at 0 comments for a very long time.

MightBe OP ,

Noted. I would suggest that you use an archive link in not as a replacement but in addition to the link submission to ensure the article in question can be seen in the future.

Let’s see if we can make this place better.
