It seems squid just misinterpreted the intent of the first comment. I doubt they were just trying to shit on your joke.
It happens sometimes.
It's not about being "butt hurt" it's about consequences for abusive behaviors. I don't think people who abuse their moderation powers and status should be rewarded with free advertisement on the place they committed their abuse.
I think that this community needs to change its displayed rules, since it seems that it does not apply to the moderators:
Please be nice to other members. Anyone not being nice will be banned. Keep it fun, respectful and just be awesome to each other.
Calling me a grammar Nazi is not necessary.
I was merely voicing my frustration with the title that lacked information and I felt I had to go into the article to find.
I wasn't berating anyone in particular, like you are trying to do to me right now.
They could have just not responded with an asshole comment. They could have not done anything and ignored me.
What did they do instead? Lash out at me like I was making a personal attack.
That's not very "adult" behavior.
I made one comment because the title was lacking a key piece of information which was frustrating, and provided an explanation on why it was frustrating.
They responded with a childish and asshole response, which breaks the rules by the way. I'm not sure how that makes them "the adult in the room".
They deleted my comments that broke no rules and the reason for it was "annoying". Not to mention they broke the rules themselves by being an asshole. That's far from "unfounded". At best, you can disagree.
The owner of this gamingonlinux site used to be a mod on this Lemmy community until they got caught abusing mod powers because they didn't realize mod actions were public. They deleted their account and complained about the public moderation aspect on Lemmy on their mastodon account.
Can we just not link to that site here?
Here's a somewhat better version of this image. Can't seem to find the original on their site.
Here's a nicer formatted image.

If lightsabers were real they would cause the matter you stab them with to heat so quickly they would explode.
He was easily taken over by a few bugs? He couldn't just force pull the light off his back?
This whole show has just been pretty lackluster, IMO
Ur mom giving birth to you

Kidding, of course. I felt like someone had to make the dumb low-hanging fruit joke.
Happy birthday!
You make Lemmy a more pleasant place to be, not just with your many contributions of great memes, but more importantly with your overall friendly manner. You make a real difference. Thank you.
It's mostly just general life stuff happening, like getting bumped by my dog while playing, but sometimes it's just a mistake.
All in all, there's tons of reasons it could happen outside of your control, like if you have fine motor control issues. I think an optional feature to select and confirm a movement or something like that would greatly help reduce that possibility and make it more accessible as well.
Though, the cracks between the menu buttons should absolutely not be clickable.
Playing on mobile has a fatal flaw
The number of times a run gets ruined or I just die outright because I accidentally tap the wrong place or just accidentally tap the screen at all is making me want to stop playing entirely.
Nearly every time it's entirely out of my control and something causes it to happen.
That gap between the search and quick slots? You can click there and your character will move. Many times I will be trying to search and my character will go kill themselves instead. !
I desperately need to be able to select a tile and confirm the action to move or attack.
Edit: Another small thing this would resolve is when I intend on examining something and I thought I hit the examine button but apparently missed, then I end up doing something I did not intend on doing. This literally just happened to me where I was trying to examine the two crystal chests in a room to determine what kind of items are inside, and instead of examining one of them I just opened the chest.
"No more posts were loaded" is so frustrating
This little notification blocks my ability to click things and cannot be dismissed, so I have to wait for it to go away. And sometimes it just doesn't go away. When scrolled to the bottom I can't click on the post to view the comments.
Show Modlogs
Assuming I am not just unable to find the button for it, can we get a button to view the mod logs?
