He’s been banned and (most) of the comments removed.

I mean, modlogs on LW are publicly viewable, feel free to check mine out where you’ll see I did not ban you from anything.

I didn’t ban you, an admin did, but you can go on making yourself look stupid.

If enforcing instance-wide rules is an issue for you, I have bad news about any forums you choose to join in the future.

Not only is it against instance rules, but the comment was reported multiple times for being hateful and offensive, if it doesn’t personally offend you that is wonderful, it doesn’t change the bigoted nature of the word, and that it does offend some people. I gave OP 3 hours to edit the comment before I removed it, if anything that’s quite the opposite of Reddit moderation, where you’d simply have a comment removed and receive a ban instantly.

Can you reword your comment to remove the word “retarded” please? Otherwise, I have to remove it as the admins have made it clear that this word is not welcome here due to its bigoted, hateful, and potentially offensive nature, and the use of the word as an insult is discouraged.

Because the way communities came to be moderated on Reddit created horrible echo chambers between banning people for disagreeing views or forcing their own opinions/views down people’s throats via content removal, I wanted to grab them before the same terrible mods from Reddit did.

> You are moderating both “Democrat” and “Republican”… lol…

It’s almost like you don’t have to have entirely one-sided views and can moderate content without bias and without creating hate-filled echo chambers.

If you’d like to participate in either of those feel free to ask, I’m not here to “power trip”.

I am currently the only moderator, I don’t want to spam my own posts to any community though. I would rather them develop on their own and hope the community and posts come/grow organically.
