So I try to make heads or tails of this situation. I got randomly banned from a community where I posted a youtube video showing something from a Convention. Then I wanted to post a question today but realised that I couldn't since I was banned. That community is sadly the biggest of all Star Citizen communities (the next one would be from lemmy.world)

I took a look at the Mod log and see the following line in it:

So no clean up of violating comments or posts, just a strict out ban.

The community has a pretty standard ruleset:

further, the moderator @Rumblestiltskin@lemmy.ml hasn't posted anything since a year, so what gives here, or was it some other mod that was able to declare the ban?

Broaden your mind.

There is more than one Lemmy.ml admin:-).

There's a whole bunch of them for sure. Just wanted to ping the fucker.

If you want to ping them you have to do it as a link like this @Dasus@lemmy.world Just @ing their username doesn't work yet. You'll also have to do it as a new comment since edits won't notify them.

I think it's somehow bugged sometimes it does it as a hyperlink sometimes not.

This is what it looked like to me on mobile since I wrote it

Mobile apps may do it differently, but Lemmy-UI doesn't do it, and the Lemmy backend won't notify people with a plain mention without an embedded link.

This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.

Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.

Rules

Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.

Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.


Some acronyms you might see.
