Moderators can see votes on posts in communities they mod.
Edit: Take a look at this user's modlog, they are an actual transphobe.

MODERATORS
You got banned from trans friendly communities for making transphobic comments, then upvoting other transphobic comments. The rest of your removed comments speak volumes about your character, so I suspect the rest of the bans are preemptive. I don't blame them. Reddit is probably a better choice for you.

Edit: Choice "I'm not against LGBT" comment quote -
So... People who couldn't keep from shouting about their "pronouns" irritated bystanders so much that they were ready to vote even for Trump just to shut up those crazy pronouns-bearers :)
Right.
Edit2: mein Gott, there's more! Totally no LGBT issues here.
Your response to this pro-Trans meme about the world being a better place with Trans folk in it:
BUT WITHOUT YOU IT WOULD BE EXCELLENT!
Right^2^. Did you not realize mod logs are public?
Thank you for documenting
oh yea, I remember your name! someone posted a pro trans meme saying "the world is better with you in it." and you responded something like, 'it would be even better without you'. I hope you get banned again.
Yeah man seems like the problem is you. Maybe you just suck.
That most likely wasn't a moderator, but an administrator. ~~The ability to view votes in communities for mods is not available in the latest release of Lemmy yet. That will come in the next release, 1.0.0.~~
Though I can't see any modlog entries for your account. Did you get instance banned and created a new account here?
It is
Adding ability for mods to view votes. (#3027)

Oh, didn't notice that. Thanks for the info. Regardless, it wasn't a ban from a moderator.
Yes, this is a new account.
Okay.
I assume your previous account was @Lembot_[email protected], which was instance banned from lemmy.ml. The administrator was davel. You can try and ask him if it bothers you, maybe even appeal your ban. Your new account most likely will be instance banned again if you try and engage in lemmy.ml communities again, given your username is pretty much the same.
Honestly, we got lots of active alternatives to lemmy.ml communities, as the majority here hates lemmy.ml. Don't be surprised if you get banned from lemmy.ml again. Check out [email protected]
account was @Lembot_[email protected]
Yes, it was.
The administrator was davel. You can try and ask him
Arguing with moderators/administrators is mostly just a humiliating waste of time. I'll pass :)
Lemmy.ml has been known for arbitrary bans for a while; https://feddit.nl/post/16246531
~~You'll be fine on lemm.ee~~
That said, seems like you're a transphobe, so you'll probably get banned from lemm.ee as well
You know what? I'm gonna use this opportunity to preemptively block you. Bye.
Yes banning people for votes, fraudulent, excessive, or made seeminly in bad faith is a thing. Mods can view votes these days but also admins have been able to view them for a long time.
This must have been with an alt account of yours? I don’t see any actions taken against your account in the mod log.
Yeah, looking up the modlog for Lembot_0001 on lemmy.ml it seems there was more going on than just upvotes, and they got in trouble with programming.dev, europe@feddit and more as well.
Oof… yeah, that sort of tea kettle of targeted rage and violence seems more like a 4chan user. They also happened to find themself on some of the instances that have reputations of their own (I’m not referring to either of the two instances that you mentioned). Should I pre-emptively type Lembot_0003 to 9999 into my blocked accounts list?
being banned on .ml communities for "rule 1" is extremely vague though, since they'll call you a xenophobe for criticising China.
Yeah, and those aren't tied to a comment or anything it's harder to make an opinion of our own. But for the communities I mentioned there are visible comments, and … I think OP wouldn't have a good time at lemmy.ml, hexbear or blahaj, or even any instance where some common decency is expected.
Yes, I deleted the previous account. It was banned from the half of the communities I cared about anyway.
I was curious to see who the offending mods/admins were. [email protected] is a good place to post about Lemmy authorities overstepping their bounds, especially if you feel it was particularly unjust.
It seems to be davel from lemmy.ml.
.ml is notorious for arbitrary bans so I wouldn't think too much about it. There are active alternatives for most (but probably not all) communities hosted there. Criticizing Russia there is also a great way to get in trouble with the admins because they're explicitly tankies.
