![Auto-banned from 2 communities I definitly haven't posted on recently. [solved!]](https://ani.social/pictrs/image/af3442fa-6ecf-4bc7-8365-2a75acb9a7ff.webp){kind=link}
I really have no idea why I was banned from those two communities specifically. I don’t think I’ve interacted with any of them (apart from reading/voting) for weeks. It’s not an instance ban.
If there is a better place to post this, please tell me.
EDIT:
I posted a link that was falsely flagged as malicious, have been unbanned! See comments for more details!
Are you banned from sh.itjust.works fully? And those are the only two communities you have interacted?
No, it’s not an instance ban, there are still sh.itjust.works communities I’m subscribed to and not banned from.
They might be the two communites I’ve interacted with most (but it’s mostly voting, it’s been weeks since I’ve left a comment on either one).
yes it is an instance ban: https://sh.itjust.works/u/remon@ani.socia https://sh.itjust.works/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&userId=14537229
nobody from SJW will see this post, as you’re currently banned from their instance. mentions of their admins in this thread won’t work, nor will any of your pms make it over there.
you were also banned by our LW automod for a minute until i reversed it: https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&userId=10371316
I’ve shared this thread directly with SJW admins on other channels for a review.
Oh wow. Any idea why?
Hi,
You were indeed site banned from SJW about 7 hours ago, which has now been reverted.
Sorry about that.
We manually review the stuff the automod does, but sometimes it can take a bit until we get to it.
And yes that domain was used by SEO spam bots. I’ll tweak it to be less harsh for this particular one.
Peace ✌️
PS: Lemmy currently issues community bans whenever a site ban happens, which is somewhat confusing and is often subject of discussion here because people think they were community banned.
No worries, glad it got all cleared up!
the domain on the link you shared was previously used by spam bots
I see … well, that was totally random then. It was just the first kind of useful article I could find regarding that topic and I didn’t think anything else off it.
Thanks for your help!
