      Thanks for replying. I’d also like to suggest:

      1. Moderators MUST point out in any ban or deletion message what rule was broken and copy the comment in it if it was deleted.
      2. There needs to be a contact that admins moderators (mod for mods) for appealing misbehavior by mods
      3. Group rules must comply with Lemmy’s terms of service
      4. Repeated moderator abuse, after warnings, should result in the loss of mod privileges
      5. Bots cannot be used to ban users. A person needs to put some thought into it. For instance, a bot might ban based on forbidden words but the comment may be quoting someone using them.
