well I got suspended from Bluesky for three days, and appealed it as per below;

My email states that I "posted content that violates our Community Guidelines related to Respectful Discourse," but I have no idea what that could be. I haven't THREATENED anyone, and the closest thing I can think of is mentioning having suicidal thoughts then bypassing them, so I ask that you please either re-enstate my account or tell me what I supposedly did wrong.

@chimerror well on the one hand; if I had an IDEA of why they suspended me, it would help.

On the other hand I'm pretty sure they're fucking power-swinging Republican wannabees hopped up on their own self-assigned authority.

@Leucrotta yep

I moved over to blacksky because I saw that, but even that's not completely safe

@chimerror AHA! I think I know what I got wrong.

I posted a drawing with a ghast trying to choke an adventurer after he'd obviously sliced into her arm with a sword, so I labeled it for graphic violence, AND apparently I shouldn't have done so.

@Leucrotta that makes sense, but what the hell, that sounds exactly the type of stuff you should have tagged as that

Follow

@chimerror This is the most reasonable conjecture I have - but I figure maybe since it's DRAWN violence, it's not like the possibly-altered war zone photos the rule's supposed to prohibit.
