I don’t even know what to think about this one. I’m not angry, more confused than anything. There’s only one mod there so i asked them, and they said “It’s against policy. It’s the abbreviations policy.”

I see no such policy anywhere, so who knows what’s going on. Is it only the NYT that can’t be abbreviated? What about the US? Is LOL forbidden too? And if so, why are we forbidden from laughing there!

They didn’t even remove the comment.
The mod is user qrstuv. Maybe the only abbreviation allowed is when they say one? That’s a power trip!

    To be clear, if you want to come in here and comment because you were mentioned, I have no problem.

    You coming in here and telling me I did something wrong by mentioning you and playing some bullshit game pretending to be someone different is the problem.

      I normally wouldn’t even patronize this community, because I see it as being in direct competition with my own, Mod Abuse Hotline. There we actually try to constructively discuss our grievances, instead of paging people, and then telling them that children are to be seen, not heard.

          Please note I am not trying to scalp members from this community, because I’m not that kind of person. I’m only offering this information because you asked explicitly, and I feel morally obligated to… oblige.
