You probably did on account of the way Beaver (likely) banned you. Effectively, Beaver targeted downvoters with temp-bans, even though they didn’t have any comments or posts here. This goes against the typical ban process (I’m guessing she used an API request directly instead of the UI or an app that lets you do that), and the only means of unbanning I know of is to click the dropdown menu of a post/comment. So for most bans, I just had to accept whatever duration Beaver set since there was no comment to click, and no comment could be made due to the ban.
I could be wrong here, but I don’t think we as mods are allowed to view a list of banned users, which I think is a bit ridiculous on Lemmy’s part. Honestly, in general, I’ve found mod tools on Lemmy to be extremely disorganized, incomplete, and unintuitive.
Yeah, trying to figure out what Beaver did via the mod log and reach out to those affected was kind of a nightmare to a point where I just gave up (she banned so many people for ‘Rule 5’ because she was using MBin/KBin to view who voted on what).
I’d suggest changing rule 5 anyway. There’s a lot of vegan individuals on here that give off the perception that they think they’re free to argue and criticize, but shouldn’t be criticized themselves. Even using the word “carnist” and calling it a rhetoric is critical. It opens you guys up to hypocrisy

There is the mod logs, but I can only view my most recent on page 1. Any subsequent page won’t load
