Read my edit. They can send an appeal to [email protected]
The community was not even active, so there is no one maybe to send an appeal. If you look at the upvote, and downvote ratio of this post, you can see that there is no unanimous opinion on this case, and the decision should be taken more carefully on this one. If you don't want to push your other users out of the instance.
They have a rule in the sidebar that clearly goes against the instance rules. They can appeal and if they don't have anyone to do that there is another problem because that goes against the moderation rules on this instance.
You could delete the rule and then put a post in the community asking for someone to step up to moderate.
I'm glad to see rules being enforced in the face of bigotry instead of the constant leniency to which bigots have become accustomed and to which they regard themselves as entitled.
And then there would be people complaining that we as admins go around changing community rules behind moderator's backs. You can't please everyone.
We leave the door open for the moderators of that community to sort things out.
Maybe to clarify when we delete a community, all posts are still there. They are just "invisible" so nothing is lost.
If it's against the rules to be unmoderated, there should be a way to add mods, since there's obviously no way for the current non-existent mod to do so.
Yes which can be done by contacting the admins by posting in [email protected] or [email protected] or sending a mail to [email protected] which will create a support ticket
It's not as if we're hard to reach right?
