Hey mods, ya think you might get around to removing that CSAM that's been up for hours?

Mario_Dies.wav@lemmy.dbzer0.com to Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world – 75 points –

Probably wise to block this community. This ain't the first time this has happened. I'd suggest leaving for your own good.

Why does a bot outrank you lol

Thanks for getting rid of it so I never had to see it.

Because while I am a lemmy.world mod, I'm not a mod for lemmyshitpost.

I see all the reports for Politics and World News and a few other TINY communities (hello Comic Books!) but I wouldn't ordinarily see the reports for lemmyshitpost.

That's where the bot comes in. Multiple reports happening really quickly get reported to Discord and then all of us can go "Whoah, what's going on?"

If we click the link and it's legit bad, there's a Perma Ban button that any of us can use even if we aren't a mod on that community.

In my case, I clicked the link in Discord and the post didn't load and I was like "Cool! Already done! One less thing to worry about!"

But that wasn't because it was resolved, it was because I had blocked lemmyshitpost from my personal feed. :(

I realized what had happened when I saw the discussion this morning, ran down the post and used all the bots to unleash hell. ;)
