Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.


Rule: You must post before you leave.



Other rules

Behavior rules:

Posting rules:

NSFW: NSFW content is permitted but it must be tagged and have content warnings. Anything that doesn't adhere to this will be removed. Content warnings should be added like: [penis], [explicit description of sex]. Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact us on our matrix channel or email.

MODERATORS
 

Heads up, We are mostly moving this community over to Lemmy.world. If you're wondering where most of the funny went, go to !196@lemmy.world! If you're wondering why we did this, click here.

==please incorporate the word rule in your post titles==
Here are the things that get you banned:
-saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad or hexbear account
-tankie behaviour
-nazi behaviour
-authoritarian behaviour
-genocide denial
-prejudice of any kind
-anything else that is clearly bad

Things that get your post/comment removed:
-AI generated content
-anything in the banlist
-posts that are so off topic that they don't fit on 196 at all
-moldy memes (old memes, crusty memes, irrelevant memes. The type of things you'd see on your aunt's Facebook page or Elon musk's Twitter account with a laughing emoji as the caption)
-corpoposting

Ban length varies, and is mostly based off of whether or not I think you will change your behavior. I have baned certain people for upwards of 2000 days.

---------EDIT:NSFW RULES---------
NSFW Content is now fully permitted BUT it must be tagged. Any NSFW content that has not been tagged and blurred will be removed. Content warnings should also be added to the title in brackets. Example: [penis] or: [explicit description of sex].
Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged. Yes, even female breasts.

IRL GORE IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER ANY CONDITION.

JAN 2025 UPDATE: One Hundred Ninety Six
Following our mishandling of the lemmy.world migration, a group of dissenting users founded onehundredninteysix, here on lemmy.blahaj.zone. We are not affiliated with this group. Please direct any complaints related to that community to their mod team and/or Ada.

If you have any issues, please reach us at 196mods@protonmail.com. PLEASE do not dm me, as I am not consistently available and tend to step away from the mantle for weeks to months at a time.

saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad account

based

[–] Sheeple@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Unfathomably based

Literally the only thing on this entire account, posts about how a Nazi bar would love this, and then nothing else. I wonder which of the many alts from MWoG this was.

how tankies are still surprised that fascist apologia gets them banned in an antifascist community is beyond me

[–] darcy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 years ago (2 children)

Why are they even allowed to federate here

[–] curiosityLynx@beehaw.org 1 points 3 years ago (2 children)

The main dev of lemmy is one of them, that's how.

[–] ReveredOxygen@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 years ago (1 children)

this instance isn't associated with the devs

[–] darkwing_duck@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Other than being hosted at the same ip as lemmy.ml

[–] katve@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 years ago

This instance is blahaj.zone, hosted by the folks at blahaj.zone?

Blahaj.zone isn't run by the Devs of Lemmy, they could easily block both Lemmygrad and lemmy.ml if they wanted. They just choose not to for some reason.

Probably because banning people based purely on political ideology is kind of facist 😝

[–] lasandra@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Reminds me exactly on the wise words of Sir Karl Popper about the 'paradox of tolerance':

"Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them.—In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be most unwise. But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force;"

Seems like a scarecrow argument to me.

[–] fkn@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Not very based.

[–] dsmaster7173@lemmy.world 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

An authoritarian communist that is supportive of Russia, China or other repressive eegimes.

Can you please ban me for 5 days so that I know what it looks like on this platform?

[–] moss@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

I'll ban you for one day because you didn't do anything against the rules

[–] bandario@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 3 years ago

It was fine. Thanks.

[–] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Because of the Reddit migration, 196 is coming up in my Lemmy feed a lot, I have no idea what it is (because you haven't made a description).

This could be your chance to gain more community members if you update your description

[–] Silverstrings@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 years ago

Well sort of the point of 196 is that you can post almost anything, the only rule is that you have to post each time before leaving. This rule isn't enforced for obvious reasons, unlike the ban against tankies.
