New moderator Mr. Smith is on a power trip

Amy Rogers6 said:Just keep going, you're doing fantastic....😁

You're doing absolutely fantastic, dear. I have no intention of taking any credit that isn't mine to claim; you were my true inspiration, and honestly, I wouldn't be where I am today without you! 🙂

Since the moderator Casey Bennett has very successfully and quite unnecessarily spammed this thread, I have to ask the new/old moderation team once again:

Why was my post containing this link deleted?

EXPERT ASSESSMENT
FDA declined to approve a third vaccine dose for everyone: 'Yes, antibody counts are dropping, but B cells are right there...'

Which specific Reddit rules exactly does my post with the link above violate?

While we're at it, let's clear up this whole situation:

driftingtinker said:Since everyone’s out here playing teacher today, I guess I’ll grab my crayons and join the fun: You can't even add the moderator to your ignore list. Just thought you should know.

So, I guess putting this new mod on that legendary list is just another one of those absolutely brilliant moves. Real genius stuff right there.

The real issue here is that I can't actually ignore you, so I constantly have to warn Kae that I have no intention of debating him.

Why is it like this? It’s as if we had a few posts of discussion, and then he retroactively handed out several warnings and ordered me to end the "stupid" debate. That guy has zero issues with that, and since then, I've had absolutely no desire to engage with him.

I suppose he thinks some 'mysterious' bench reserve will save him.😁

Is it even worth mentioning that the site admins actually have the right to do that?

It was explicitly stated and explained that moderators have the discretionary power to go back and dig through old posts—not just from yesterday or last week, but indefinitely—to slap you with a penalty for something you wrote a year ago, claiming they somehow "missed" it.

Pure class, isn't it? 🤣

The US Government is probably going to adopt you as their official subreddit. 😍

That’s not true, I think they can only go back a maximum of 15 days.

A-ha, let's just wait for Nica to show up and repeat exactly what she said—and how she explained it to some random guy in a DM. It was made explicitly clear to him that moderators can dig through the archives as much as they want; that's their right. But sure, they're the good guys, so they definitely won't 😍

I honestly don't know how anyone manages to moderate this entire collection of anti-universe paranoid delusions and hyper-frustrated people lacking basic emotional regulation without a clone. It makes total sense why they use a moderator buffer 🤷

I'm really not sure why Doduse is even allowed to post here, but hey, I guess they’re being pretty liberal over there 😳

just like how some random person gets stuck moderating Alternative Health or whatever else falls under the alternative umbrella

Goebbels was definitely a weird one.....☕

But seriously, do you actually have something useful to say about the rule violations, or did you just drop by to grace us with your profound wisdom?

Not really, there aren't any.

Man, you guys are seriously losing your minds over four guys dressed like they walked straight out of Reservoir Dogs, and they've been around since this forum's inception

Honestly, they used to rock purple, so switching to all black is basically just a step down for them

I’ve been a mod for exactly 24 hours and this thread is already sitting at over 150 posts. Just a little observation: only two other threads this year have hit those numbers on Reddit. 🙂

Wow! Thanks for the attention and the warm welcome, everyone! Special shoutout to Casey Bennett! 🙏 And big thanks to the OP.

Your humble servant.

But wait—which character am I actually talking to right now? People on Reddit can be a bit schizophrenic... you never really know who's on the other end of the screen. 🐔

You still have a bug, though. It shows you only have 6 posts from the 23rd. Fix it so we can all have a good laugh. 😬

even the Lawyer guy (who's totally right) shows "500 posts" and not a single one actually shows up!!

It seems a woman can't enjoy even a tiny shred of satisfaction in her life without being immediately attacked from every conceivable angle.
Just keep grinding away: wash, iron, cook, help the needy (well, we all know I love doing that, but there just aren't enough hours in the day...), vacuum, sweep, plaster the walls, chop wood in the forest, or try to tame some wild stallion...
And then, squeezed right between painting the house and scrubbing the kitchen counters, I come here to unwind and have a bit of fun with such refined, cultured, and profoundly intelligent people.
But when even that is off the table! How much longer can this go on? I want freedom! I want to breathe!
Nobody is going to tell me how to live my life! Am I right? 😬

Congrats on making moderator. So—did you get the shot?

Exactly. And while you're at it, feel free to start your own dedicated thread about yourself, but just let me add you to my Ignore list 20 first. 🤣

Oh, don't start with me! I rarely engage in trolling, I swear on my life. This thread just possesses a certain quality that compelled me and sparked my interest.
It has opened up entirely new perspectives and realizations for me—somewhat narrow and claustrophobic, perhaps, but new nonetheless. 😁

Fine, I won't do it anymore. 😉

Look, I know you're just feeling nostalgic. It's a shame what this Reddit has turned into.

What a blast—honestly feels just like 1945 Berlin. Between the heavy-handed censorship and you guys self-censoring until your brains turned to mush, you haven't the slightest clue what’s actually happening globally. https://staronormalno.com/u-francusk...kolovoza-2021/ In France, they’ve got court-ordered vaccine freezes happening right now, and the trial kicks off on October 21st, led by Charles Albert Bruce...

Meanwhile, over in Germany, the lawsuit filed back in July by Reiner Fuellmich is finally moving forward. It starts November 9th, 2021. The target? PCR testing. Once that falls, everything else follows suit... I wouldn't want to be in your shoes when it all hits home here in the States, and trust me, the media platforms are going to get their comeuppance too....

But hey, clearly you don't give a damn. 😁 You're out there dancing like Eva Braun in a bunker scene from *Downfall*—it's honestly impressive how clueless you are. Are you really that incapable? We'll talk again late spring or early summer—I'm dying to see how you're all breathing then. My guess? Through a straw. We'll see.....☕
