This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.
Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.
All posts should follow this basic structure:
Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.
Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.
YPTB matrix channel: For real-time discussions about bastards or to appeal mod actions in YPTB itself.
Some acronyms you might see.
Relevant comms
As you can see they edited their original comment and added a comment to try to justify their behavior after they had banned me when I couldn’t defend myself.
I did make a mistake and thought that flatworm and db0 voted to refederate with hexbear and not lemmygrad but voting to refederate with lemmygrad doesn’t help disprove the claim that db0 is anti-tankie.

Your comment started a fight and you continued it. Flatworm seems to agree it was a poor choice of words, since they changed the comment.
What kind of energy did you bring to that conversation? It looks like Flatworm was barely meeting you where you were at.
A two day ban looks fair to me.
They ignored a pm trying to clear up the lying and trolling allegations and edited their comment and added justification for their ableism know I was banned (because they banned me.)
That’s power tripping bastard behavior.
People should be able to handle civil discourse on the internet without resorting to personal insults.
Uh, if you're trying to continue an argument into DMs (which you're then publicly posting screenshots of) then I think you push yourself solidly into YDI. Honestly great call by the mod.
Why do you think this is continuing an argument and not providing the proof that the mod requested?
I could not post it in the thread to defend myself at that point because after the mod insulted me they banned me.

You can't parse this? If they didn't respond to a DM, they were letting you have the final word, which is usually the most important thing, right? Since, you know, you needed to screenshot it and make that public. Which makes this about more about continuing the fight that triggered the ban...
Well that's one way to view this.
I think when you create a persona based on trolling, you have to expect that your serious comments won't be taken seriously
Not that you precisely deserved it, but this shouldn't be a shocking outcome
BPR at best. Delusion, which you used yourself in your opening line is a medical term and that also muddies the waters, but mostly its just obvious you came in for a fight. I would probably ban you for like a week myself.
I mean the whole interaction feels like spoiling for a fight, but reacting like an internet comment is a 'diagnosis' seems like intentionally perpetuating conflict.
Trolling is too subjective to be used a justification for banning. I will die on this hill.
The tankies have been working on db0 for a while but I think it isn't taking as well as they would like. The vote (a year ago) was overwhelmingly against refederation, and I've seen a reasonable amount of pushback to their bullshit recently as well.
