Dear VitaDAO Community, I am writing to draw your attention to my recent ban from the VitaDAO Discord server. I believe this ban was unfair and goes against the very principles of our community. On September 19th, I joined the Discord server and posted an introduction, which was unfortunately flagged by the automod. I then sent a direct message to a moderator but received no response. Shortly after, I was banned from the server. This ban raises serious questions. Questions about fairness, about community, and about the very principles of decentralization that VitaDAO stands for. If a contributor can be silenced without reason, what’s to stop it from happening again? What kind of future are we building if voices are stifled? I would like to request the following: - That a different moderator review my case. - That I be given a chance to rejoin the community. - That I receive an explanation for why I was banned. Thank you for your time and consideration. * * * **Attached: My Previous Self-Introduction and DM Drafts** **Self-Introduction:** Hello everyone, I’m Joe, and I’m very excited to join the VitaDAO community! As a full-stack developer, I’m currently deeply interested in the DeSci field. I’m also the founder of a previous decentralized technology community, which has given me firsthand experience in building and growing a Web3 group. I’m a huge fan of VitaDAO’s unique model and hope to contribute my technical skills to the DeSci space. I’ve already taken a look at the onboarding process on your forum and am excited to get started. Here’s how I plan to contribute: - I plan to join a pod and become a builder. - I’ll help fix some of the bugs and form issues on the website to ensure a smooth user experience. - I will attend calls to understand the technical needs of the community and the broader DeSci field, and explore building products like Arbrai that use technology to empower scientific research. - My professional background is in DeFi, but I’m much more passionate about DeSci. While I acknowledge my limitations, I believe a positive attitude and proactive action can effectively make up for any gaps in experience. More importantly, I’m confident that our shared consensus on VitaDAO will always transcend individual differences. I look forward to growing with this community in the DeSci field. **DM:** My name is Joe. I apologize for sending this direct message, but my previous self-introduction was caught by the automod. As a full-stack developer, I am currently focusing on DeSci (Decentralized Science). I’m actively looking for an opportunity to join a pod to contribute my skills in web development and AI/LLM applications. I’m very excited about the work being done here and hope to contribute to the community’s mission. ---
