Removed - not a news source (blog)

I actually made one a few months ago it is linked in the https://lemmy.world/c/politics and https://lemmy.world/c/world sidebar: https://lemmy.world/c/globalpolitics

Please make sure that your voice is heard in the pinned post: lemmy.world/post/10102462

We are using this as a way to understand user’s feeling on the current rules and how they can be changed.

For example a proposal is to remove the MBFC requirement

Thanks, I really appreciate that. Happy New Year!

While I did not ban you I may have removed some of the posts or comments in the past that were reported for rule violations.

I apologize if the process for appealing is unclear or if any of your posts or comments were removed in error.

Above all else I apologize if you were made to feel unwelcome here as it has been important for me the past 6 months moderating this community to try and develop a place for discussion from many sides on topics around the world.

Before the most recent additions to the mod team we had a practice of using a 1 day temp ban, 3 day temp ban, 7 day temp ban, and then permanent ban for many rule violations. (the exception being clearly racist trolling type of users) I think it would be good to return to a standardized structure as well as removing the MBFC requirements as the best way to fight misinformation is to prove its bias in comments rather than being the arbiters of good journalism.

There are members of the mod team from the U.S, U.K, and E.U

I am a Catholic Woman from Southern Europe and have always thought of this community as one where we can come together to learn and discuss current events. I try not to engage much in comments as to me the role of moderator should be one that facilitates the user’s discussions above all else.

I removed the comment for publically posting direct messages of a moderator which is in violation of rule 6 but as things are now changing I did not realize that rule was changing. So I am very sorry for deleting your comment we had been told many months ago that appealing a comment or post that was removed is for the meta communities like lemmy.world/c/moderators or lemmy.world/c/support however many times a user will send me a message to talk about it and i have often gone back and restored.

Going forward I won’t be deleting comments regarding moderators and hope that we can have a great community to discuss current events

because I am from Europe? I’m sorry that doesn’t make sense

https://lemmy.world/c/globalpolitics

already exists! I’m the creator/mod of that but there isn’t really much engagement there other than my posts :) so I’m happy about the idea of working together with the lemmy.world/c/politics mods (if they want me) to take the level of article and discussion quality to the next level!

I am from the E.U and have been a mod in this community and was a top mod here for many months, there is a diverse and motivated mod team here!

Welcome!

Rule 1

The previous had a post title that did not match the article title

Hamas is using Turkish drones https://www.yenisafak.com/teknoloji/turk-sirketi-gelistirdi-dunyada-lidar-teknolojisini-kullanan-ilk-drone-3524472

I have constantly had timely response to reports they can look at my mod actions or actions on reports for that. The sidebar is currently as I had last changed it, so you can see that posting full articles or using a means to by-pass paywalls are forbidden. I personally have removed posts that violated that rule. As far as I knew the /c/world community was in sync with the us focused c/news and c/politics communities and was never told of anything that was wrong. A large part of why this was so upsetting to me as I had no communication or warning, just I wake up to be removed from moderation and removed from the discord. Thank you for acting as an intermediary.

thank you, I don’t really care about top mod and if i made some big mistake to be demoted from that i only wish to know so i can do better. If the admins don’t want me to be a moderator any more i would appreciate knowing what I did wrong for closure. I have been removed from the discord when removed from being a moderator so can only communicate here.

I don’t really have much choice but thank you

would you be willing to add me back to the team? I did nothing wrong and care about the world news community?

Really quite sad that I was removed without any sort of communication or a chance to respond, I have spent months removing posts and comments that were against the code of conduct. I have responded to criticism regarding the moderation of the community in the past and the way this has occurred has broken my heart about a community i cared about.

I’ll share some recent quotes from messages I’ve sent to other mods and admins:

“Hello I wanted to send a message to say that I am interested in helping more. I really like lemmy.world and want the platform to succeed and want to help.”

“Even if another is chosen for these roles I would be happy to help as a community moderator to help lemmy.world grow and continue to be the best lemmy instance! Thanks for everything you and the admin team do 🙂”
