I personally don’t mind the cookies and tracking, but thanks for the alt link!

I don’t know what it is. If you are so sure of yourself, please reach out to the authors of the article.

Could be!

Then they can feel free to block me and not deal with me. I am totally ok with that. Not everyone has to agree on everything.

But this is a fitness community and I don’t feel politics or name-calling is appropriate here, so I removed the political comments and name-calling.

The wonderful thing about Lemmy is if people don’t like how a certain community is ran, they can start their own. The more communities and diversity on Lemmy, the better. :)

Not my problem. Length of time someone is on Lemmy is of no importance to this community or this conversation.

This is a fitness community, not a politics community. Rule 1 is in the sidebar.

Again, please follow Rule 1: Kindly be empathetic and kind to others. Trolling and spamming will not be tolerated.

Please take a day off and think about your negativity and you’re welcome back here as long as your posts stay fitness focused. Thank you!

Some people, for some strange reason, brought politics into this community today and I had to remove their comments. This is a fitness community, not a politics community.

The removed comments are in the public modlog: https://lemmy.today/modlog/12240

Now they’re mad at me and they decided to go on a downvote binge.

The types of Lemmy users who do that usually do it for a week or so, then realize that it doesn’t accomplish anything, and move on. lol

I don’t have to think on it. This is a fitness community. Please stay on topic. Thank you!

Not sure why you are talking about Nazi stuff in a fitness community. That seems…weird. Please keep topics to fitness. Thank you!

I don’t engage in political targeting though, and I don’t support that kind of behavior either.

This is a fitness-focused community, and politics don’t belong here. Regardless of usernames, personal beliefs, or what other communities users post in.

If some users feel the need to bring political grudges into this space, that reflects more on them than anyone else.

I’m here to contribute positively and stay focused on fitness. Let’s keep this community respectful and on-topic.

Thanks for your support and feel free to add your own posts to this community if you want to.

No, you didn’t see that at all. You saw me saving a dead community and bringing it back to life, while making sure that the existing community guidelines are being followed.

This is a great instance, with great admins, and I took over this unmodded community so that it could live up to the standards that the rest of the instance has.

The temp-banned poster brought politics and name-calling into a fitness community that is non-political. The poster repeatedly broke the rules. Hopefully they can take the time to reflect and calm down.

For proof of what they said, the modlog is public.

Moving foward, please keep comments in line with a fitness focus. Off-topic posts will be removed.

Thanks for your support and let’s keep Lemmy awesome!

have fun with a perspective from the sewer

Thank you!

Well was he really fictional though?! :)

Temp ban for repeated name calling. Please take time and reflect. You’re welcome to come back to the community after temp ban as long as the discussion stays focused on fitness.

Cool!

I don’t what that means, but thank you, I guess. :)

I don’t know if it counts as universal, since I don’t think Lemmy is quite that serious of a platform just yet, but people should follow the rules the communities they’re in.

And one of the rules here is: Kindly be empathetic and kind to others. Trolling and spamming will not be tolerated. Making the community a friendly & supportive place is our goal. All of us are here for a short lifetime. Hope u have a nice time here :)

Which is a great rule!

But thanks for your support and hopefully everyone can stay on topic now.

Definitely gonna try this! Thank you!!

I’m not a monk or religious at all. I haven’t posted any religious news articles, so I have no idea why you would think I’m religious. You seem to be confused about where you are. Calisthenics is a body workout. It has nothing to do with religion.

You broke multiple rules for this community and you brought politics (and now religion) into it, even tho this community is just about calisthenics. There’s just no reason for you to bring your politics to this non-political, non-religious community.

Name calling again. Breaking the rules of this community again. Ignoring that this is a calisthentics community again.

Reported for trolling.
