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!
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.
Ahoy matey. How can I get in contact with the hotline? I need a mod abusing, and I don’t want to have to do it myself.
If you experience any abuse at the hands of a moderator anywhere on the fediverse, you’re welcome to file a ticket and receive support.
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.
Thanks for the house call, Dr. Wesker!
dr wesker and i are completely different people
I like that about you.
How is this obvious bullshit trolling allowed?
If anyone in this post had taken 60 seconds to check out the accused PTB mod in this case, they would have immediately seen it shouldn’t have been taken seriously. AFAIK that news community only exists so the mod can ban people for random reasons. It’s clearly just for the lulz. That’s why I’m not taking the trolling seriously in this case.
