Greetings dear lemm.ee folks,
I have noticed an increasing number of lemm.ee users dissatisfied with Hexbearians. Reading through the modlogs on hexbear.net, I have observed truckloads of lemm.ee users being banned on hexbear.net, meaning that they won’t see any Hexbearian’s reply to them since Hexbearians aren’t able to see their comments. Despite this, I have yet to see the complaints from lemm.ee die down. May I politely ask, what is it that makes so many lemm.ee users hate us? And, how can we improve? Thanks!
I humbly request that all parties involved in the comments refrain from using slurs or name-calling to reduce the workload on mods and admins.
I'm sorry, but your post makes it sound like that's what you're saying. Either that or you consider pithy, dismissive responses (ie "cope and seethe" or PPB) to be trolling, which I also disagree with.
I know you won't see this, but how are the pithy, dismissive responses not trolling? Those replies are exactly trolling.
I don't know how to break it to you that like 99% of people think using pithy, dismissive responses is bonafide asshole behaviour, and that's why nobody wants to talk to you guys.
Your "instance culture" is just being a bunch of assholes. This is why everyone defederates you.
What? Ppb, rent free stuff is absolutely trolling.
" In slang, a troll is a person who posts or makes inflammatory, insincere, digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages online or in real life, with the intent of provoking others into displaying emotional responses, or manipulating others' perception, thus acting as a bully or a provocateur. "
It's literally trying to dismiss or detail the conversation, or illicit frustration out of the recipient. It's used when they don't care for the discussion.
