How do people ban people who've never visited their community? Tho not OP's exact situation, I've been banned from communities that I have never even posted in.
And I'd like to repay the favor to the mods who did it, but I don't see an option on how to do that.
I don't think it's possible. They must participate before they can be banned
So how have I been banned from communites that I've never visited or heard of?
!pleasantpolitics@slrpnk.net. has a bot that just bans people based on downvotes on other instances. and it's people who have never been to his community. Go read the modlog there, it's crazy lmao https://lemm.ee/modlog/1068967
I'm not sure but it may do with you being on your own instance? I personally have no idea
Maybe I'll put in the question to the main support community. Because this guy isn't admin and he has bots that scour other instances and bans you based on how many downvotes you've received every day: https://lemm.ee/modlog/1068967
!pleasantpolitics@slrpnk.net
Which makes the name ironic, since that's not very pleasant to do. But I guess he only allows "pleasant" people in his community! lmao
