Someone on Reddit has been saying someone has been able to report new members without proof and remove their threads by claiming to be the people they’ve reported. Out of curiosity, I tested this out. Turns out it checks out. For some reason, admins have allowed it to be possible. I found out my threads have been removed this way, so beware if you’re banned from somewhere or your threads are removed. This is the same person who thinks she can compete with Fedilore on Tumblr after being banned from Fedilore’s instance for signing up for KiwiFarms in order to prevent her friends from being backbitten on there before going on YouTube to complain about it.

    OP’s referring to this and modlogs say it’s their alt. I read OP’s post multiple times and from what I gather, OP is boasting about getting other people’s threads removed out of spite for the Fediverse because they got banned from the lemmy.ca instance on their Call Me Leni account.

      I’m not seeing any post or comment removals in that modlog other than the usual stuff and things due to other specific reasons. It doesn’t seem to be connected to what OP is referring to. At least I can’t see it. Also I’m not sure about that being another alt account. Maybe true, IDK. The writing style isn’t the same. If it’s one of the alts, that’s done well.

        It isn’t true. I’m yet another person mistaken for them, right after it happened to one of the other Ask Lemmy mods (go ask mod Candyman337, he will tell you about this).

          You claimed in this comment that Leni was banned from multiple instances for being autistic, which I have proven to be a lie here. I don’t understand why you would lie about this. If you’re interested in a honest discussion here, I strongly advise you to not make claims which can easily be proven to be false.

          Leni was banned from multiple instances for being a KiwiFarms user with a history of abusing people, bigotry, and Nazi apologia.

              True, that’s why on Lemmy, users can’t as easily lie about the reason they’re banned as they can on other sites. It’s also possible to see which mod banned whom.
