    I personally don’t think they were a troll but I am also not sure I agree with banning people for not remembering or wanting to use their unusual pronouns.

    But I am not well-educated on the topic of neopronouns so if someone feels like educating me or suggesting some readings I am open to it.

      No one was banned for not rembering drags pronouns or for accidentally getting them wrong.

      People were banned for dismissing the validity of neopronouns or for deliberately and repeatedly getting pronouns wrong.

        Absolute bullshit. I called drag out and ONLY drag. I made no mention of neopronouns or even said anything remotely dismissive of pronouns as I am a huge supporter of all of it.

        Yet I was banned because I called drag a shit tier troll that was making a mockery of the trans community.

            Community banned as I recall. And even removing the comments because I called them a troll and accused them of mocking the trans community was bullshit in light of the recent acknowledgment that they are- in fact, a troll.

            They went to where they knew they could take advantage of the rules that protect the trans community- and then weaponized it to create drama and get shit removed.

              I’m an instance admin. I don’t issue community bans. I issue instance bans. If someone community banned you, it wasn’t me.

                I can’t check because blahaj modlogs won’t even load for me without timing out, but my point remains. I was banned/had comments removed for calling out a troll. Who did it is irrelevant.

                You guys circled the wagons around a known troll and went scorched-earth on anyone that so much as said they weren’t being genuine.

                  The policy came from me. It’s an instance level policy that you were never banned for.

                  I did remove some of your comments, and I will do that again if I become aware of misgendering, even if it’s accidental. But it didn’t get you banned then, and unless you start deliberately misgendering folk, it won’t get you banned now either.
