Please consider adding that Lemmy.ml will ban users for comments made with other accounts on other instances.

Posting for conversation sake. Interesting thread went on about my alt account over at lemmy.

I honestly don’t know how to deal with some of these accusations.

I’m not sure how not banning people for offering contrarian opinions some how makes us

There is not a moderation policy that doesn’t ban any contrary viewpoints that some people will accept.

    “I think there is a good case for banning people even if it’s not in the rules.”

    What?

    The whole point of rules is to document what you are willing to ban for. Arguing that something shouldn’t be a rule, but should still lead to a ban defies the basic foundations of language. I guess they do that quite a lot.
