I’m now starting to wonder if it’s a bug, but kind of astounded that I am seemingly the only person impacted. I only see myself added once. However, I have not been able to get any response from @VerbFlow@lemmy.world

Had a similar issue on db0 instance like ~8-10 months back. I had to contact admin to remove my position and it worked.
Thank you I will try that!
You can check out any time you like . . .
. . . but you can never leave!

You can escalate to LW admins
Thank you I will try that!
Clear case of AI trying to get back at you.
I’m apparently a mod as well. I was one of the first. Not that I’ve exercised my power any. But if I saw something that clearly needed deleted or had a flag to respond to, I’d do my best to address whatever issue had come up.
Also, I don’t know precisely how I became a mod. I assumed VerbFlow just added me one day. (Edit: The modlog makes it seem that way.)
I can try removing you if I can figure out how. Heh… Though I doubt that’ll prevent you from just being re-added.
Sounds like you’re talking to the LW admins, which is probably a good idea.
I was about to say that maybe VerbFlow had a bot that was adding people as mods, but you’d think if a buggy bot readding you as mod was the issue, the bot readding you would show up as activity in the mod log. So, 🤷.
Edit: Ok. I figured out how to remove you as a mod. On Lemmy-UI, it’s the “more” link on the post. The bottom option for me was “remove as mod.” We’ll see how long that lasts.
Edit2: Also, @octopus_ink@lemmy.ml, could you link me to the modlog view you’ve got in the screenshot? In case more folks have this issue, I’d like to see if I can get a better understanding of what’s going haywire so hopefully I as a mod can fix it without bugging the admins (if possible.) In looking at the modlog myself, so far I haven’t found the instances of you trying to remove yourself as a mod that you have in the screenshot.
Oddly the modlog is no longer showing me usernames, only “mod”. But this is the link I’ve used unless I’m going nuts somehow:
No this link: https://lemmy.ml/modlog/535853 Though it does come up in the other also if you filter it.
I haven’t reached out to admin yet - didn’t occur to me until it was suggested earlier and I’ve been multitasking. :)
Ok. I figured out how to remove you as a mod.
I don’t think I’ve been removed by another mod before - so maybe somehow this time it will stick? When I do it, it does seem to work, then a day or so later I notice I’m a mod again.
In any case, thank you!
Glad to help! Hopefully it sticks this time. Heh.
You know, I wonder if the issue isn’t that the removing-yourself-as-mod action that you did on lemmy.ml maybe didn’t properly federate back to lemmy.world . That at least makes sense in my brain.
Anyway, I’ll keep my fingers crossed. :)

I could totally see that. Thanks again!
That seems to have been the problem because I’m still not a moderator. Yay! Thanks again!
That’s what I see in the modlog too, searching your username:
You got be-modded 19 days ago:
https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&userId=5427727
But other than removing yourself today, it doesn’t show any other adds or removals.
