Lemmy.world Rammy Statement

lwadmin@lemmy.worldmod to Lemmy.World Announcements@lemmy.world – 816 points –

We recently received a message from a concerned Rammy user regarding their instance not having an active admin team.

We have made attempts to contact the Rammy admins, which other instance admins have tried as well, to determine their current status. Due to their admins being absent and their unmoderated content growing in numbers, we will defederate from Rammy. If and when this situation changes, we will be happy to reevaluate our approach. It should be noted that any instances that have abandoned admin teams will be defederated.

The host is on vacation and has no backup admin.

Damn, not sure if this is a joke or speculation, but imagine the shit storm they're gonna come back to. I kinda feel bad for them if they didn't intend for this to happen and the cleanup they'll have to do, but at the same time, they kinda shoulda made sure they had a backup, or at least closed sign-ups while they were gone (assuming it wasn't a medical emergency).

They could be in the hospital or anything if there's only one.

Definitely a nightmare to come back if that's the case.

Brings back bad memories of so much work on Ark being undone by griefers...
