News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Spamming a live chat is just being a nuisance. Nobody's been annoyed into listening to a spammer.

From the image, I don't see how this was spamming, though.

[–] ech@lemm.ee -2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

We can't see much of anything. The image shows all of 4 comments. But I can guess, considering the all capital username and copy-paste format - I would bet money that they posted that same thing over and over again. Also, I know this platform is understandably anti-Reddit, but I really doubt they're banning people for a single comment about Lemmy.

I can confirm while I like the message they did spam it.

Nobody’s been annoyed into listening to a spammer.

It was just the comment with most "thumbs up" while I was there LOL.

i can imagine an infinite number of live chats where spamming as a nuisance is positive. spez, scientology, MLMs, i don't even have to be political

[–] ech@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm not defending the Spez stream. I'm saying spamming a chat with JOINLEMMY is just going to make Lemmy look bad and associate it to new people as an annoyance rather an interesting alternative.
