Soap is soap - Body Wash / Shampoo are just soap.

When the soap is gone, break out the water rinsed soap bottle

When that is gone, break out the dish soap

When that is gone, just jump into the swimming pool until you have time to go shopping.

Would I prefer not to have fufu fancy soap? Sure, but i’m not going to waste money by ignoring it.

I’m still half way through a bottle of industrial hand soap i use in the shower… it’s lasted over a year at this point. None of my tinder dates have complained

I’ve done it. It works.

You can pee first, the poop without peeing as a separate transaction

Nothing is stopping you from making the post to continue the argument elsewhere. Or making a community to have that argument.

If a gardener doesn’t want to have people fighting in their garden I see no problem with that.

Disinformation is often a term thrown about when there is some fundamental disagreement. It’s so overused as to be meaningless to talk about actual astroturfing

In my experience, yes it removes all the need for paper.

As a bum gun user, this. Never need the paper unless you want to pat to dry, and then the paper is clean anyway.

Toilet paper is for sneezing, picking up bugs, or dinner table napkins.

It’s not accurate. If you browse hexbear from a different instance you can still down vote, and the downvotes will be seen by all instances other then hexbear.

I’m happy for you to ask questions, even questions people would already have seen elsewhere. The conversation is good for everyone.

Plus a question about carnivore, being a subset of keto, gets to birds with one stone!

I really like to dig into the science, what is well researched, what can be demonstrated. Heck, I even spent a bunch of time figuring out why the Rice/Potato/McDougall diet works (its inhibition of the Randell cycle (not a cycle)).

I’ve seen your interactions in that community as skeptical but polite. You never attacked a user, or insulted anyone. You contributed occasionally.

Would I have preferred your downvotes also have a question/comment with your concerns? Sure

My guiding metric is to make a safe space where others feel comfortable participating in - and your interactions were inline with that.

I checked my script, that wasn’t me. You are not banned on my non-dubvee communities. ([email protected], [email protected])

That was a instance ban https://lemmy.dubvee.org/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&userId=171320

Exactly. It’s not about fake internet points it’s about making a safe space where the lurkers feel comfortable to contribute and participate without getting dogpiled.

It’s very much like growing a garden, it has to be tended to, weeded, and protected from local varmints for the young plants to flourish

The script doesn’t run on my personal community [email protected] because im the only poster and I know internet points aren’t real. I don’t need to encourage others to participate.

No one.

Oh I’m sorry, yes, the ban only applies if the account never comments, posts, or upvotes. A strictly negative interaction signal.

I did notice a few accounts upvote something really old before they started to downvote, so my secret sauce has already been guessed

Currently it does not, if someone really dislikes a community enough to down vote a post and then go through the effort to open it and also downvote the only comment, it’s a strong signal they are not a good fit for the community

This is only helpful for very small niche communities that get lots of negative attention.

I’m sure it was [email protected], the other comms don’t draw so much ire. There are 3-5 active posters and commenters in that community, we haven’t even reached dozens yet. There are 75 active vegen communities on Lemmy, and 1 carnivore community. So, is it helpful for the 75:1 group to remind the minority group they don’t like them very much every post?

When I was tuning in the behavior, anyone who opened posts to downvote comments would repeat the behavior every new post, and many went through the backlog of posts to do the same. So I took that as a very strong signal it’s a bad community mismatch. Pruning optimization

So far zero people have asked to have the moderator action reversed so they can contribute, or debate… the only feedback has been like this one where a angry person is angry they aren’t allowed to continue to be angry at a tiny community

didn’t know they did anything wrong

They are not doing anything wrong, but helping people disengage from a bad situation is healthy for Lemmy

I would like better vocabulary around it, instead of a ban, we should have a community unsubscribe, or community block vocabulary

I tried to soften the vocabulary in the mod message. This is not the right community for you

I’m not a great programmer,

This ban message only happens when someone downvotes a post then opens the post and downvotes all the comments.

Is there a bug? Sure, lots! I haven’t double checked the logs against this user yet. After work

Notice the one thing this user didnt ask for - to get unbanned so they could contribute to any of those communities

downvote everything from a certain community while browsing c/all

If somebody consistently does that, they are not having a great Lemmy experience and they should block the community

Does it do any good for all the atheists to down vote every catholic post? Nobody is benefiting from that behavior

To be fair - Hexbear has blocked a community I moderate… So that bear still has claws.

I wrote the script. You opened a post in a community and downvoted every comment. That’s what the message is telling you

That means you really don’t like the community, fair enough.

It became assumed.
