Fun fact, this website has a weird way of treating you when you get banned. Because the only thing that will happen is that trying to post a comment or anything will result in an infinite loading screen that will not allow you to get anything on the sub.

I checked this by trying to post stuff on other subs, and it worked perfectly.

I came here after the fiasco of dndmemes and the invasion of goblin porn we used against reddit administrators. When posts stopped getting uploaded, I took my bow and left for here, a website advertised by mods that were themselves banned from reddit for allowing the 18 + content to exist.

This is context for me to you for a simple reason : I was banned after posting an alignment chart that included 18 + content. Something I thought was funny and hot and wanted to share it around.

The thing is, I marked it as NSFW and there aren't really any strict rules about the sub. Either I was banned by mods without warning, or enough people reported the post and it was enough. I tried contacting the mods, to no avail.

And so again, I will leave this website, disgusting by how bad the moderation here is. But not without leaving you a warning. Apparently, if you post something that will offend enough people (even if you mark it NSFW and is still RPG content) you will get your head chopped off.

I do not intend to use this account to even check any answer you would leave me. I no longer care. Just like I no longer cared about reddit.

Be careful and do not trust the rules, the mob of chaperones will get you to never be allowed to load a new post in.

May your 20s be natural.

You are confusing a few things.

The "mods" you are taking about are actually the developers. They develop the software and run one instance, but they aren't the ones running this instance and this community.

This instance is ttrpg.network. It's run by the admins of this instance, which are in no way affiliated with the developers.

And this community (RPGmemes) is run by the mods of this community, who got chosen by being the first ones to open this community.

The admins can remove moderators, but most of the time the moderators do their own thing unless they do something to damage the instance.

The mods in many communites are new and/or not used to run a community with a lot of members, so rules and punishments aren't always consistent. You are not on a commercial site with long-standing moderation.
