reason: Admitting to being a troll: “I’m an agent of chaos.”
Absolutely the limpest reason to temp ban someone from a shitposting community. From the context it was obviously an offhanded joke, not an actual admission of someone trying to disrupt the community.
What they said was “I’m a shitlord”, and they did attack people in the comments who disagreed with them in an exceptionally trollish way.
- Then the mods should be honest about why he’s being banned in the modlog.
- Him (charitably) being an overzealous meanie in defense of an honest brand of feminism does not make him a shitlord.
- Sometimes people need to be dunked on for both their own good and the good of the community, obviously myself included. A perfectly appropriate venue for some gentle dunking is a shitposting community.
It’s a shame that the thread got locked. It was getting heated, but IMO that’s a good sign that what you’re talking about actually needs to be debated.
Him being an overzealous meanie in defense of
an honest brand of feminismassuming anyone who says men should be treated better is expecting complete deference from women does not make him a shitlord.Perhaps not, but saying the words “I am a shitlord” does.
The mods were actually very clear about it in the thread. Pinned comment.
That’s pretty funny actually.
From the context it was obviously an offhanded joke,
Ah so that’s the thread in question. Was wondering what post it was and honestly, I suspected that one of being rage bait.
The original image seemed like it was missing context so I figured OP was gonna come swinging in later against any comments saying it was extreme with the additional context.
And yes, out of context I thought it was a bit extreme. I don’t necessarily agree with what the first person in the image said although that’s a complex topic that deserves a much lengthier discussion, but just randomly having someone tell them that they’re a creep who deserves to be tased is fairly extreme without any additional context. Keep in mind, I have no idea who the individual is or what they’ve done.
The fuckin essays that generated. Jesus christ. We’re failures as shitposters when a shitpost generates that much drama.

Hard disagree lol, I love when a shitpost actually gets people to debate about important things. So many people would just never think about that stuff otherwise.
I was wondering where that post went, shame on the mods.
How am I supposed to furiously mastrubate to dramatic comments now? This is basically kink shaming.
/s means sarcasm right? Should this be sarcasm? Or was the sarcasm the friends we made along the way?
/s means sex
I’m happy and having lots of sex /s
Can’t wait to wet my willy. /s
I have no idea about any of the context but this comment was a delight to read
I’m here to help.
Weird looking hydration bladder but I’d drink from it.
I suspect I’ll regret asking, but what is this?
Literal douche bag.
Dude! Wtf?! They just asked a question. Jesus Christ, why so mean?
Some people can’t help it they have to jump at you for asking a question
I’m not sure if you two are serious or not, and that just makes this even better.
Surely we can’t be serious?
I am serious, and don’t call me Shirley.
It’s honestly hard to tell sometimes

The enema/douche bag at your service.
Hey kings, queens, and inbetweens, don’t you ever, and I mean EVER, shitpost in my Christian shitposting community
I agree with the mods here, that person sounds like a toxic sexist pos
I think the main reason they should be banned is because their posts are mid
A shit leopard can’t change its spots
Lemmy clients need to make it easier to find the mod logs for communities and specific mods.
Yeah idk people kinda get mad when you shitpost in !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world
What’s going on exactly, a user is a agent of chaos but (shrugs)
I’m an agent of shit. I’m the shitnami that’ll wash away your little shithuts from the shitbeach.
I’ll have you know I graduated top of my shit class in the Shitting Acadamey, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Public Toliets, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in sewage warfare and I’m the top shitter in the entire US Sewage System. You are nothing to me but just another target.
I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can shit in over seven ways, and that’s just with my bare butt with my hands and feet planted.
Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed shitting, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Sewage Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable shit stain off the face of the side of the toilet.
If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn dolt. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it.
You’re a dead man walking, and I’m the one holding the trigger. You can’t hide, you can’t run, and you can’t escape. I’ll find you, and I’ll make you wish you were never born. You’re a pathetic little worm, and I’m part of the Sewage Aligators, and I’ll crush you like the insignificant insect you are.
You’re Fucking Dead, Kiddo
Hard /s
Will you wash away the shit apples from the shit tree?
They don’t fall far.
To be fair it was getting pretty toxic… But then again I’m ok with that.
While shit is a renewable resource, only so much shit can exist at any one time.
Shitpost mods need to walk a fine line of laxitives, costives, gas station sushi, big mac meals, and dilators. Sometimes they get it wrong.
It’d be nice to have some kind of recourse of a mod gets out of hand and wrecks a community.
Like a way to either vote out mods (dangerous in case of bot voting), or to fork communities such that community members are made aware of the forking (potential spam/troll vector), or something like that.
Idk if that’s needed here, but just in general.
Not needed. Admins create their own policy on removing mods and purging communities. Everything else you vote with your feet.
Squid isn’t as awful as people play like he is, but he’s a provocative troll himself half the time and if he used the metric he used to ban this guy he’d have to ban himself.
The voting with your feet only works if people know there is another (viable) option, which is what I was getting at with the forking idea.
Idk much about the mod or really the op in the referenced post, I was taking more generally; I’ve seen a few small communities turn into little fiefdoms.
he’s a mall cop still bitter about failing out of the police academy.
I tangled with him once, he’s response when I said he was being pendentic about something, was “don’t you see I’m a mod?”
That tells you everything you need to know about him.
Some sort of shitpostception, gears within gears, and at the center of it all, somehow, Palpatine has returned.
Jeez man, people got some PTSD about reddit power mods or something?? Why ya’ll gotta be so shitty to the mods??
That thread was definitely getting toxic af, specifically the troll that posted. I agree with ya’ll saying it makes sense to encourage discussion, esp on topics that’re controversial, but like go read some of that OP’s comments on that thread! They were being shitty to people just to be shitty - I think the mod made the right call for sure.
Even if the mod were off base, no excuse to treat 'em like shit!
