The post in question, if interested:
Also, I don’t know how to see which mod/admin banned me, so if you know how to in the modlog, definitely let me know.
Banned for 7 days, so I’m not super mad or anything - I just thought it was funny.
Honestly I don’t blame them - I’d be embarrassed about people finding out my community was on .ml too.
Wow, that’s the real reason why the deleted comment isn’t quoted in the original post. That’s clear YDI case, the moderator did a good job by kicking out the bad faith troll.
BPR & YDI. It’s perfectly reasonable to disklike .ml’s moderation practices, but you effectively went into their community just to troll them about it. What did you expect to happen? 7 days seems reasonable to me, and it’s only a community ban.
YDI + BPR. Yup, both.
You didn’t just say what instance the comm is in; you were clearly implying that it’s pointless to engage in good faith there. It falls squarely into rule #2 (be respectful, specially when disagreeing).
At the same time we know how poorly the .ml admin team reacts to things they disagree with. And, even if you were making the comm less welcoming, odds are that you weren’t banned for that, but because you rubbed off the admins the wrong way.
EDIT: it’s relevant to note that I’m often criticising the .ml admin team, as anyone can see here, here, here, here, here. As such, if I’m blaming the OP in this specific case, it’s because I genuinely believe that OP dun goofed. Is this clear?
YDI + BPR
