Hi AlgoFam,
I have been banned from Telegram group “Algorand Foundation Announcements”.
Also, now I am unable to read the comments in group “Algorand Foundation Announcements (Official)”
Chain of events:
Today, two hours ago I posted two links from this forum into the Telegram group called “Algorand Foundation Announcements”. This group is for discussion, not only announcements.
My forum threads were:
What the King Safety paper should include
Some questions regarding economic sustainability of Algorand
After posting these links, I was deleted from that group within minutes. Not only banned – the group disappeared for me like I never was there. Also now I cannot read comments in the other group “Algorand Foundation Announcements (Official)”. I only see the announcements, not the comments.
I wrote to an admin called Millie. My message: “I have been removed from ‘Algorand Foundation Announcements’. This is an anti-democratic move. Please explain the reason, and put me back into this group. Thank you!” I haven’t got any answer yet.
My questions to AF employees, and especially to @SilentRhetoric whom I happen to know personally:
- Which specific rule did I break?
- Why was I banned without any warning?
- Why I cannot read comments even in the official group?
- Who is responsible for Telegram moderation and how can a normal community member appeal a ban?
I ask for a public or private answer. Silence will be understood as: “We do not want to explain.”
Yours truly,
a long time Algo supporter,
