Yes.

Yes I’m a mod, and thank you ;]

I’m not sure where this is rude or off-topic to your question, it is direct but on-topic:

You can do pretty much whatever you want man…

Like “vegan” isn’t even a century old yet, it was made up in the 1940s by some guy who thought vegetarians weren’t good enough, and he set whatever rules he wanted to.

You can just keep using his word, but not care about his rules.

Or you can make up your own name and rules.

People searching for labels they like and then conforming to every fucking aspect of that label and nothing else, doesn’t work out well.

So please, if you want to eat roadkill just do it.

And then this is your rude reply to that comment, which violates the rules:

Cool comment but did you want to answer the question, or just bitch about nothing?

They didn’t break a rule, you did and so your comment was removed. Not to even mention, none of this follows what you claim in this post. Nowhere did they say the question was stupid, and they did stay on-topic.

Thank you!

Just because that one is pretty old we are going to leave it, but in the future reports help us catch these. All of us have jobs and families outside of the community, we do this for the enjoyment of others, so reports are heavily relied on and appreciated.

Acronyms are typically uppercase, so TOR makes sense, even if they (Tor) don’t format it that way.

Either way is fine though, what a strange thing to correct someone on tbh.

Not going to argue with you about it here

This has all been ridiculous.

Have a good one.

Not an excuse.

Not going to argue with you about it here, but the short is: if that’s true, when I messaged you, you should have just had a conversation with me about it instead of all of this.

Have a good one.

Well thanks for understanding. The question itself was not a problem, hopefully that helps as well.

Because as the mod that removed the post, I’d like to give you my perspective if you’ll let me.

• OP made a post that seemed to break rule 5 (we had multiple reports on it), and did not seem like a good-faith question breaking rule 1, so I removed the post
• OP then makes a second post being fairly passive towards me, further showing that they were not posting in good-faith. So once again, removed the post for rule 1 and 5, messaged OP as well explaining this. This could have been a temp ban, I was being nice here, and reaching out to give OP the chance to explain they were not posting in bad faith.
• OP then posts 13 times about the above in other communities, breaking some of the rules in those communities.

As mods it’s mayhem if you don’t enforce your rules, which is all I was trying to do, we have each rule to keep the community from getting out of control and offtopic. If we had no rules, the community would be filled with a bunch of trolls and offtopic posts.

IMO OP has proved multiple times now that their question was not in good-faith, and they were seeking out arguments (check their other comments) and drama (see the 13 posts).

Icing on the cake: we left their rephrased question up to avoid more of this drama, OP still kept posting the screenshots.

Just want to make sure I understand, you blocked a community because they removed a post that broke their rules?

Are you?

Hey, I appreciate that!

Stop reporting people who are answering your question with an answer you don’t like, we only remove rule breaking comments/posts here, not stuff you don’t like.

Your submission in “wtf” was removed for Rule 1.

Specifically the name calling, without that your comment would have been fine.
