This guy is clearly snooping the downvoters as an instance admin and retaliating against them. Wouldn’t even have noticed if I didn’t stumble onto the modlog in Voyager by accident.

I might be of course wrong in my assumption. But I don’t remember ever interacting with anyone from that instance, I’m not subscribed to those communities and the dates correlate.

    The admin was downvoted 3 times, across one discussion. In a community not on their server, and not their post. Calling that ‘brigading’ is ridiculous. From other comments in this post, it’s happened to others too. Somebody mentioned getting banned for 5 downvotes spread across several weeks. It sounds like any criticism of the admin would merit a ban. Regardless of where your individual borders lie for defining power tripping, I don’t see how this would fail to qualify.

      I mean, great, you can rant about it if you want. Feel free, it doesn’t hurt anything.

      I already gave my criteria in the first comment. Feel free to use your own in making a top level comment too. Heck, make a post about, it if you like.

      But, I gotta say, that if you’re just looking to argue about it, you’re wasting your time. I gave my opinion, stated the grounds for that opinion, and see no reason to change it to satisfy some internet rando that can’t be bothered to answer a direct and clear question.
