I was reading a comment section and I saw that some people were banned, but the comment wasn’t removed. This got me to thinking: how are banned and removed treates on the threadiverse?
When a moderator bans someone, do they choose whether to remove the comment, or leave it up for all to see if that is better?
Is it that some clients autoremove banned users, and some don’t?
Do some clients allow banned users to still poat in the community they’re bannes from, and it is up to the client to decide whether to show it or not?
What is going on?
When a moderator bans someone they have the choice to remove that person’s posts and comments too
In the communities I moderate I usually leave comments intact unless they are offensive, I’m happy enough to let people see me trying to reason with the person and then being unreasonable before banning them
You can often still see the person’s deleted comment or post of you look at their profile
I don’t think a banned person can vote on a community, as we banned serial down voters from one community the down votes reduced
Thanks for the explanation!
