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!
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.
