This particular mod is ChucklestheClown who is well known to remove comments that they can’t refute or to protect their buddies.

I thought conservatives were about freedom of speech not censoring people with nitpicky interpretations of the rules.

    This is both PTB and YDI

    While your comment didn’t deserve to be removed on its own merit, you were in what amounts to a slap fight. The mods were definitely over the line, yes. But, if they’d nuked the thread instead of playing favorites, it would be all YDI.

    It’s never a good thing to stir shit, without being prepared to accept the inevitable intervention of a mod or admin. When someone goes into a political or religious space, and joins in a slap fight full personal attacks and off topic nonsense, their comments are going to be removed. You don’t seem to have started the slap fight, but you jumped in.

    ROFL. So in a community about power tripping mods, a comment illustrating provable abusive mods is removed for being off topic….

    yet was very much ON topic as it has everything to do with the discussion OP was in that got them removed as well. In fact, there’s screen shots showing my removed comments posted right in the comments here.

      For the record.

      Your comments were off topic because the post is about the mod [email protected], and nothing to do with Universal Monk. If you think Universal Monk is a PTB then make a post about that. Otherwise this is not the place for you to complain about random users, even if you suspect them of using alts.

      If you are insisting it’s relevant then please clearly articulate WHY its relevant. The topic under discussion is whether the mod ChucklestheClown was a PTB for removing OPs comments. How do your removed comments add to that?

        I did articulate in the post WHY it’s relevant. That specific mod ALSO removed my comments and allowed that troll to accuse me of being autistic.

        Is that not the definition a PTB? Because it’s pretty much on par with OP’s experience. I’m Basically saying “Right? It happened to me too. Here’s how.” And it happens in the same fucking thread of conversation.

        Maybe check it again.

          What you articulated above is a misrepresentation of what your comments said. Your removed comments were mostly about you accusing Universal Monk of being that troll (using an alt) based on nothing but vibes, which he denies, and then calling the whole instance a joke because they didn’t side with you. I’m not defending the mod in question by the way, I just feel you are going on wild tangents here. If you’d stuck to what you described above then that would have been useful info.

          spoiler
          1. Removed Comment So I got into it yesterday with one of Universal Monk’s many alts, accusing them- with evidence- that they are ban evading in other instances. They reported every comment I made, and simultaneously, every comment I made- got removed. Monk eventually accused me of being “autistic” and the mod in question left that up, while removing my comments that called attention to it. (After my comment was removed, Monk made an edit to remove the accusation, but the mod saw it as I reported it a while before it was changed) A bit later, that specific mod, and the later on- an admin of the instance and I were in private message where I explained to them that this was UM trolling people- (UM isn’t even a conservative, which is funny because these clowns think they’re protecting one of their own)… neither of them could be bothered to even hear me out. The point? That community is a joke. And the instance it’s in is run buy an even bigger one. Just block it and enjoy being better off.
          2. Removed Comment It’s one of Universal Monk’s many ban evading alts. Admins don’t give a shit about it.

            I was explaining what led up to dealing with the mods for context, but whatever.

            It’s your community. Lord over it as you wish.
