Too many rule 3 breaking comments, locking this post. Let's be excellent to eachother please!

Typically no, that wouldn't get it removed.

Only removed because the user is getting harassed elsewhere for the signature, and the comment was border-line rule 3.

Hey OP, how can I help? We are here for you

I didn't avoid your point, I actually answered it: rules are rules and exist for a reason, if you break a communities rules they will remove your post or comment.

To put it more simply for you, no, it is not immoral - especially when you look at the context of your question.

Just to be transparent, I'm the mod who removed your posts.

We get a lot of rule breaking posts between the multiple communities I moderate, some of them get upvoted heavily and still get removed.

For example, someone posted a scientific post that had nothing to do with technology in /c/[email protected], it had a decent amount of upvotes and comments. It was still removed for rule 2 of that community, as it was off topic for that community and there are ones that exists for that content.

Sorry that it upset you, but if I could give you advise: just follow the community rules and you won't have these issues

I don't see this in the mod log, what was the title? It most likely was removed for not being tech related, which makes sense based off this article.

Been rocking a Z-Fold 3 since it came out and love it, came from a Pixel 3xl. IMO the way Samsung polishes the Android OS makes it superior, and having the ability to fold out to a tablet at any time is awesome.

Will most likely upgrade to the 5 once it comes out, pretty excited to see this!

Heyo @[email protected], could you adjust your title to be a question, this is required per rule# 1

100% agree, no way it'll be $40k. Still crazy that as of 2021 there were 1.5M orders, which means they've been holding and most likely making interest on $150,000,000+

I agree, and have realized it's there for this reason. The bot button is checked on L4s.

In the comment above I was getting frustrated, as I'm doing something to try and help in my spare time and felt the work I've put in was being diminished. I let that get the best of me, and I shouldn't have.

Edit: I've realized my mistake and will just leave it on, my bot is not above any other, and my goal doesn't justify not checking the box.

That's a fair point, and seeing that a lot of people would prefer it be on, I will probably reconsider my stance regardless of what the admins say.

Edit: I've realized I'm wrong below. A bot is a bot, and mine is no exception. Sorry to anyone who felt deceived, that was not my intention.

@[email protected] my apologies for not replying, I read your message while updating a bunch of code for the bot and forgot to reply.

When I made L4s I had gone through Lemmy’s Code of Conduct, and didn’t see where that was required for bots? If I misunderstood the Code of Conduct I will gladly mark it as a bot, or if the admins of lemmy.world clarify to me they want it to be done. Please let me know if you are aware of where it is required, as I want to abide by the the rules here, and don't want to annoy anyone. Maybe @[email protected] could clear this up for me, I know he is extremely busy though.

The goal of L4s is to help jump-start communities and content, and I felt 99% of people uncheck “show bot accounts” since they don’t want what would be the equivalent of “automod”, spellchecker bots, etc to show up - not something that's bringing them content they subscribed to or previously enjoyed on reddit.

So far it’s helped multiple communities that way (see [email protected] prior to its posts, and a few days after, it’s now the largest "active users" community on all instances), and has sparked a lot of conversations in the posts. The reason I bring that up is most have not complained about the fact it’s not checked, even though I do not hide that it’s a bot in any way, and most enjoy seeing the content it posts. Checking that would mean that those who don't quite understand there are content bots, would no longer see these posts.

Also, yes, I'm a mod here. My role irl is very deeply technology related, that is what I enjoy. In my free-time I have been trying to make Lemmy.World one of the best instances as far as content, and helping keep [email protected] on-topic and toxic free.
