Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
Rimu
What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
Kicking from all Matrix PieFed rooms
Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
Rimu has been manufacturing non-stop drama for weeks. He ignores multiple offers from multiple parties to de-escalate, and now he bans someone for trying to promote non-discriminatory language. He has also now cut off a PieFed admin from any and all support and ability to contribute to the software.
Oh and the real kicker ? Rimu did all this after his big grand post about how he is stepping back from drama and hiding away from users.
The unfortunate truth is people who are enamored with programming find it so enticing because it’s a part of the universe that works exactly the way you tell it (for better or worse). Kind of like how kids who are traumatized build forts to hide in or something.
If code doesn’t do what you want there’s a way to fix it and make it behave. There seems to be a correlation where the best programmers can’t tolerate the unpredictability of other human beings or reality…
To be clear, yes I’m a programmer too, and yes I built forts as a kid so this is speaking from experience from talking to other IT/programmer people 😂 it’s a common theme I’ve noticed.
