Please don’t expect the community to give you answers to your questions which you then delete right afterwards. Those of us who put time into answering your questions are not doing so just to serve your personal needs, we are here to help build a community knowledge base that others can search and reference.
This has become a chronic issue with Lemmy and its starting to feel like it’s a waste of time to answer questions.
Eh… IMO there’s a big difference between disagreeing about something reasonable, and disagreeing about the most basic tenets of what makes a community a community.
Kinda’ just making room for the sort of hypocritical ilk that ruin so many things. I can think of so many political and religious examples these days but I’ll refrain from fully describing such depressing things.
I’d re-read what I said then - again, it was not users deleting their content, but the former moderator. People downvoting were likely responding to the blame being placed on the users - aka, the members of this community - when they were not to blame. The people you just referred to as moronic leeches with the reading comprehension of a potato who were, again, not to blame.
Who is downvoting a post based on what’s not in the post title or body? Besides, there are far more downvotes now than when I made my original comment, so it’s clearly not people being fooled by previous, now removed comments.
Also, I said or. It’s Either they’re against a community of answering questions openly, or have the reading comprehension of a potato…
Whats in the post title is blaming users. Its incorrect.
I’d recommend you reconsider who needs to work on their reading comprehension, as well as the attitude coming in here. This is a community, and one where we don’t need to come in and attack/name call, especially when you’ve fundamentally misunderstood the issue.
lol I’ve understood the issue. The original post is not exactly nuanced. I’m sorry you feel so offended by my opinion that people who do not understand what a community of questions and answers should look like should not be welcome to people who understand what publicly answered questions should look like, but you do you.
Its also entirely wrong, as I’ve noted to you now many times.
I’m also letting you know politely that coming in with an attitude like that will not be accepted here.
I replied to you because your comment was reported for rule #1. Just because the last mod was lax with managing comments and overzealous with their interpretation of rule #3 doesn’t mean I will be.
To put it bluntly - be civil or don’t be here.
