About a month ago, a certain user was banned from all the heavy-hitting threads—stuff like child support, domestic issues, divorce proceedings, etc. She pulled it off by leveraging her circle of friends, both online and in her actual life, to get the moderator to issue a permanent ban on those topics
after four long years
And I was never disrespectful. I didn't swear, and I certainly wasn't trolling. Yet, because the moderators lean so heavily into certain feminist biases, they declared me guilty without cause, acting solely on the intervention of "friends"
The reason she did this? She simply didn't like my comment regarding her announcement about her own divorce... she treats this forum like a private messaging tool for communicating with her family, husband, and kids
She actually kicked her current husband out using the exact same tactic. It seems the moderator's vow to her friends takes precedence over truth or reality
and???
Just as I predicted, now that I'm blocked from offering advice on these tragic, serious matters, I’ve watched as any meaningful discussion or useful exchange of ideas simply withers away,,,
Come on, rustydrifter10, take a look at your posting and reading stats for Zuck since I've been gone...
Between the day before yesterday and yesterday morning, there have been three pointless posts... some ridiculous thread about pornography
And that's it
Not even mentioning the view counts
So what is the point of this forum if it's just going to shut down these topics???
Not to mention the legal and life-alteringly bad advice that same group has been giving on serious questions about alimony after they forced me out
🐔
And please, don't insult my intelligence by replying with something like "trolling" or "offensive content"
Privatizing the forum is clearly leading to its downfall, especially on such vital topics that could be incredibly helpful to people facing difficult life situations
And why?

Because her virtual and real-life friend was afraid that my reactions to her posts wouldn't sit well with her family members, whom she’s been addressing through this forum for years... so she had to protect herself...
Finding a new phone or using a different computer isn't an issue, especially since I have access to several throughout the day... I just wish you would realize that this style of moderation leads to the death of serious discourse on a forum...
By turning this place into an echo chamber for like-minded people, it loses its purpose, doesn't it?
Respectfully submitted
