I'm all happy because I bought my pan pre-seasoned about two years ago and now it has that perfect black non-stick coating on the bottom that will last forever! I've only had to re-season a pan once, because someone wanted to be "helpful" and brillo padded the shit out of it. Plenty good reason to never have people stay over ever again!

The answer to the question is found in a Village People song.

You should read the Lemmy Code of Conduct, which I am not bothering linking to because you should have already read it. The answer to your question is there. You can be banned, but if a mod bans you, there's a time limit on the ban. Mods can, however, ban you for a very long time. Using that slur on Lemmy would probably inspire most mods to delete the comment or post you used it in and not much more, unless you come back and repeat the offense. I'd also like to ask you if you have the intelligence to find and read the Lemmy Code of Conduct for yourself. It's quite clear on this. Also, I would also like all people who take the time to read my comment to know this: Lemmy is not a magical alternative to Reddit. People on here insult each other in comments and it's sad. I'd like to know why people can't calmly discuss any topic. People on the internet use slurs for topics of conversation as diverse (and apparently innocuous) as cross stitch and baking blueberry muffins. Why? Anonymity. Why are people not holding themselves up to better standards when they are anonymous? These people could be working in the cubicle (or dungeon) next to yours, every day, nine to five, and you'd never know what kind of real person they are and the attitudes they keep to themselves only to unleash said attitudes with anonymous abandon on the internet. This guy or woman could be your cousin, husband, wife, grandpa, grandma... It blows the mind.

 

The preference of locale is to cover global time zones to fit lemmy world's guidelines for moderators. I'm in Spain, Siyah is from Pakistan. The history community is growing to the tune of 100 new subscribers per month, so I, as the head moderator, am responsible for making certain all bases are covered for "large communities number undefined" under lemmy world's ever evolving guidelines for mods. It's an easy gig, as I've said before. Nothing too strenuous. You would need to familiarize yourself with the community rules (not hard) and the lemmy world Code of Conduct I'm always available to consult with if you have a question when in doubt about historical accuracy / inaccuracy. I can't say enough about how much of an easy gig moderating this community is. It's also fun because you discover new things about the past you never knew about before with every post from community subscribers. There is activity, and it's usually high quality activity, whether it be posting or commenting. If you happen to live in Antarctica, you would really be helpful here, because then the time zones would all be covered! We allow all things about the past here, so no need to be picky about what counts as "pre-history before writing" and time periods after writing was invented.

That's where you're wrong, when you're on the whole "it's their work" thing. They shared a link. The link is out there. Somebody else created the content on the link. I'm still actively searching for the link, which I shall share all on my lonesome when I find it. The author did nothing more than share a link. Not much work there on the part of the author. What got up your ass, anyway? As I said in my post, I would love to have the opportunity to retrieve the link the user shared. The user didn't create the content available on the link. The link disappeared with the post deletion. Also, let's not credit people with content creation they didn't create. You're not really too smart or something and you're harassing me. Would be really nice if there was some decent moderation around here. In my community, you would have already been shut down for being belligerent when unnecessary. Also, I will share the link here for you when I fucking find it, because I am going to find this goddamn link on my own with no help from that user. Know why? Other mod is from Pakistan and studies anthropology and loves criticizing colonialism just as much as I do. And you? You're a major troll making outrageous accusations that are unfounded. I just want my URL to post again, because we loved it over there in our community. The URL. That's it. We just want our MTV and our URL.

It saves it if a moderator acted on it. In this case, the user acted on it, and everything was lost. The only way the full content of something shows up in the modlog is if a mod deleted. The user deleted. I just wish I could recover the link that the user shared so I can share the link again, because I think with all my heart it's significant. I've been spending a lot of time looking for it now to just post it to my community myself. Such an impact. Historically important photos from the colonial era of India as well as present-day Pakistan and other places. Anyway, my point is that there is a difference between what the mod deletes and what the user deletes. If the mod deletes it, it's there in full in the log. If the user deletes it, no trace. Which is weird. Ever try to delete your account on here? Still can't without begging an admin for that.

I'm not trying to do anything. I don't know how to do it. The ethics of it is beyond my small mind. Really nice post that, on the ethics front, criticized British colonizing of India and other parts of Asia. I think you really need to discuss your ethics issue with the British Empire that is no more or something. I'd really love to recuperate the link that the user shared and just share it myself, nothing more. Your ethics radar is really off here. I guess you haven't heard of external links? Criticisms of colonization by Western Powers in the past? What compass guides your ethics? The one up your anus?

thank you for thinking of that. that makes sense.

 

Over in the community I moderate here on Lemmy world, which is history, a user posted a link about photos from India when it was colonized by Great Britain. All of us over there were like enthusiastic to the brim, then the user deleted his or her post. When the user deleted their post, there's nothing to click on for a link, and what they posted was actually a really good link. Is there a way for me to recover the link to force it to be available again? It was really good. I navigated to the link before the user deleted the post, but it isn't available now in my history in my web browser, probably due to a sync fail from Firefox. Is there any way to recover this post so my community can continue to enjoy it? Is there a way for moderators to not only see that the user deleted their post, but also interact with the deleted post to copy the link?

I really think it would be a great movie plot. Could even be a slasher film.

Yeah, it's very similar, but at home in the US I can think of a few situations where it might be ok to say it looks bad from my personal life.
