Moderator: fonemf (unfairly deleted link from signature)

The signature didn't violate any of the specific rules regarding signatures listed in the guidelines...☕

This was the link included in the signature:

ftp://killuminati.dnsalias.org/

And right underneath it were the credentials—username and password: killuminati. It looked exactly like this:

Illuminati&NWO
Username: killuminati
Password: killuminati

I was told that links to Reddit, news sites, or other web pages aren't allowed. I followed that, because as you can see, this link doesn't lead to a forum, a news site, or a webpage...

It’s just an FTP server where you can download files about the Illuminati and the New World Order... info that's actually relevant to threads like this one: http://www.reddit.com/showthread.php?t=456448 and a few others on alternative boards...

I guess I won't complain when the "rules" explicitly state that links to downloadable content or FTP servers are prohibited... ☕

I don't believe I broke any of the actual rules posted in the guidelines, so I feel unfairly targeted by this moderator...☕

I could probably name at least 10 users right now who violate this rule because they have links to various websites in their signatures, yet nobody says anything to them... even though those links have been there for months...☕

Anyway, when I suggested to @feralgardener362 that she might want to check what's actually at the link before deleting it, she basically said she had no intention of typing in a password to see what was there...🙄 Well, fine. Just deleting things blindly without knowing what they are... 🙄

Though, I suppose I can guess which user is behind all of this...☕ 🙄

I'm honestly curious to see which one it would be. 😬

fine, so can I get permission to link to my own FTP server then??? ☕

Regarding the font size thing, I guess that was my mistake... I thought it was set to 1 by default...😬

You aren't allowed to post links to anything other than Reddit, Politico, or our own blog.
The stuff Laura Evans3 was quoting? I already quoted that back to you.

No, you can't use that link.

Look, I checked out what you sent, and honestly, I’m still not touching it. There's no way I'm typing in my passwords just because you asked. It's pretty simple: if the link isn't one of those three approved sites, it's a no-go. Plus, we don't even allow YouTube or anything else like it here.

As for people using other people's signatures, just report them to any moderator. If they're breaking the rules, they'll get taken down.

Look, we’ve got another massive headache brewing with this FTP server link situation, because honestly, none of us have the slightest clue if what you're dumping in there for download is even legal. It's one thing to host files, but it's another thing entirely to be flying blind on whether we're walking straight into a copyright lawsuit or some federal investigation by uploading stuff that might not actually belong to us. 🤷 Honestly, I just can't face staring down that mountain of files again; the thought of grinding through that endless pile of paperwork day after day is enough to make me want to pull my hair out. 🙂

We'll see about that... there are still plenty of ways to go about this...☕

Everything can be found on YouTube, I suppose...☕

everything I’m keeping there is just stuff about the Illuminati and the New World Order...☕

Anyway, what if I just link to a blog, and then put the FTP link on the blog? ☕

A lot of users include links to their own blogs in their signatures. For instance, is a great example.

I actually removed mine after an admin suggested it, but I did suggest using it as a resource in a specific thread to help someone out. There isn't any unverified or offensive junk on there; it sticks strictly to its niche, interior design http://elegantindesign.blogspot.com//. Half the links people recommend for info are just blogs. A blog isn't some money-making scheme or ad platform—it’s just a place to share info and exchange ideas. The only REASON my link was pulled was because they labeled it ADVERTISING!!!! 😂

Why does this one moderator have such a vendetta against my blog? And can we get a little moderation applied to her behavior too?

A lot of people try to play the system by linking out to their blogs, where they can hide links that would normally break the rules right here on Reddit... just like Melissa Watson4 pointed out earlier... 😬
It’s really just a handful of specific moderators tasked with cleaning up signatures, so if it feels like you're being singled out, it might just be a coincidence. 😁

The link wasn't even in a signature this time; it was right in the thread where it belongs. It’s pretty obvious the same people have a habit of picking on the exact same users. 🙄

And of course, all this random banning... it would be nice if someone actually corrected them and wiped our warnings from the record. 🤷

So why are you even weighing in on a thread about signatures? 🤷

Hey, granitecrane72,

I’m assuming you make some decent money from your column, especially since you always drop links to the site where it's published—including that one site you tried to promote before deleting it. Just so we're clear, I could have called you out on it, but I didn't. And just like I didn't give you a red card back then, I'm choosing not to hit you with one now either.

I suppose we've finally settled this whole "rule-breaking" nonsense regarding my signatures.... the link leads to my blog...☕ 😛

Note the emphasis on I ASSUME. Just like most of your other downvotes, it’s completely baseless, let alone intelligent. 🙄

Your job isn't to play detective; it's to keep things orderly... which is probably why they gave you a broom... not to spend your time making GUESSES!!!! 🤣

Laura Evans3 said:So why are you even weighing in on a thread about signatures? 🤷

Because it was in my signature at first. I removed it after getting warned, but apparently, it was just *my* link that was "problematic"... let's take a look at user Elon Musk and his multiple links in his signature... why is that, I'd love to know.

I know why now... because someone is making ASSUMPTIONS. 😂

granitecrane72, you’re seriously hijacking someone else's thread here. 🙂

But since you’re already digging into your own signature—and I honestly have no clue why you’d even drag Elon Musk into this conversation—let me clear something up: links to Blogspot are perfectly fine, but we don't allow just any random blogging service. If you take a second to actually look at your own signature, and then look at Elon Musk's, you'll see exactly where the disconnect is.

Consider this matter closed. 🙂
