Your ban expires in 11 days, and is limited to this one community.
Your post wasn't only NSFW, it was full on rule34 choking on dicks.
Idk what to tell you if you can't read the room.

MODERATORS
You are confusing a few things.
The "mods" you are taking about are actually the developers. They develop the software and run one instance, but they aren't the ones running this instance and this community.
This instance is ttrpg.network. It's run by the admins of this instance, which are in no way affiliated with the developers.
And this community (RPGmemes) is run by the mods of this community, who got chosen by being the first ones to open this community.
The admins can remove moderators, but most of the time the moderators do their own thing unless they do something to damage the instance.
The mods in many communites are new and/or not used to run a community with a lot of members, so rules and punishments aren't always consistent. You are not on a commercial site with long-standing moderation.
I don't understand, they got temp banned from one sub and quit Lemmy?
Typical rage-quit. They could message the mod, apologizing and asking them to update the rules - but then they couldn't use the free speech narrative.
Of course they all demand they should be able to upload whatever vile shit they want and completely forget that these are individuals who have to host their shit. As a server admin myself I am very open with the bans. I can't just be hosting whatever they decide to upload
Bye bye!
User posted porn, got temp banned for it and is consequently malding.
my man posted hog
chaperones
Like the drug dealer?
Let's see this alleged horny alignment chart. If it isn't hot enough then ill agree with mods giving you the boot.
Yeah I've found most of the time people getting banned for being "too risque" don't realize that it's only them who finds it funny. 2 week ban is a pretty heavy thing... but I didn't see the meme either.

Anyway, I'm an onlooker and have no affiliation with ttrpg.network - I just like sticking my nose in places where it doesn't belong.
I agree that the ban on NSFW content should be disclaimed in the sidebar, but at the same time, I think that's the community moderator's choice. IIRC DNDMemes on Reddit also blocked NSFW stuff.
However, I'd like to point out that ttrpg.network has open community creation and an explicit NSFW allowed stance. You could easily just create /c/spicydndmemes or something and designate it as where to put all your snitty pics. Although there are moderation concerns and potential drama with NSFW communities which have to be considered.
I'm all for having NSFW friendly places, but at the same time, if people want two separate communities for NSFW and SFW stuff, that makes sense to me. Nothing stopping people from subscribing to both of them.
Based on the only recently removed user and their visible posts I'd say it's fair to call it not suitable for the community and also that they had a raw deal - should have been given a warning or something before the ban. I'd be happy to see content like that but likely would need a dedicated community for spicy memes.
I definitely think the community should call out the limits.
Thanks for sharing the mod log and your views!
