Reposting cause mods didn’t let me know title needed to be changed from less charged title DNC Delegate Attacked for Gaza Protest Banner Supports Harris

Follow own rules for comm

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.

Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

      Still. All you had to do was repost; complying with the rule you broke, that was pointed out to you via the removal message. It’s not like you were punished for it.

      You chose to draw further attention to your rule breaking. Mods aren’t babysitters; they’re volunteers with limited time and lots of work to do.

      Also; I’ve never seen an [active] automod on Lemmy, and given the pinned post about the other bot(s), they don’t seem to be working as intended/very well. Not all that surprised it didn’t notify you.

        There was no messages.

        My point is to draw attention to that and the fact they aren’t even following their own rules for situations like this

          Once again:

          It’s right there in the mod log. As lemmy doesn’t notify users of mod actions; it’s your job to go look at it when you notice your post/comment was removed.

          I agree that part of the software should be improved, but that’s where we’re at now. Gotta work with what you have.

          My point is to draw attention to… …the fact they aren’t even following their own rules for situations like this

          Then you should have made a [meta] post talking about it and requesting change; not added passive aggressive notes to an otherwise unrelated news article.
