MODERATORS
 

I have been uploading comic art images by Moebius for several weeks almost daily to the !eurographicnovels@lemm.ee community, where I´m a moderator myself. All those images have disappeared. Modlog says the images have been deleted by "admin". Modlog gives no reason for this but says the images were later restored by "admin" but that is not true. All my comic art posts have been destroyed and are empty posts now. I was not even contacted a single time about this and honestly can´t think of a reason because I had uploaded exclusively "safe for work" and apolitical material. We are trying to build a community for european graphic novels like "Tintin", "Lucky Luke" and "The Incal" and I put a lot of love in those posts because I want to help make our community interesting and grow. However - I have been stongly discouraged to contribute content now that I have seen it gets arbitrarily wiped by anonymus admins. How can I find out what happened, who deleted my stuff and why they did so? How can I avoid this happeing to my posts in the future?

If you filter modlog by username you will discover that one lemmy.world admin banned you most likely using the "remove content" option thinking you were a spammer and a second lemmy.world admin restored your posts however the images most likely were lost even though the post wasd restored.

That would be really fucked up. Do you know if this is this a common "practice" on lemmy? They obviously did not even look at my posts before deleting them because they where clearly comic art images posted in a community dedicated to exactly this kind of material. I put quite some work and time into those posts and I won´t continue contributing if ~~abusive~~ admins ~~on a power trip~~ will just arbitralily wipe my stuff accidentially ~~whenever they feel like~~.

I just hope the posts can be restored, this has really damaged our community ...
