you banned three times more people in a matter of days on your single sub, than i did on my 30-ish subs in over a year and you are calling me sensitive? :-))

and there is nothing as relevant than to reveal criminals with fake names pushing violent agendas on a public forum. you are busted, pocket-fuhrer!

What does that have to do with the argument at hand? You're just as bad as any leftwing redditor. ad hominem and logical fallacy is smeared all over your face

you are not respecting the pyramid of debate. it applies to mods too. and guess what, even the admins are respecting it.

i already said what i think, lets see what the others have to say:

I think you are correct and he's simply deleting opinions of those he disagrees with, based on what I'm seeing in the modlog. He's been told to quit doing this, or lose mod privileges. I brought back all the deleted comments and un-muted the users

Haha that is ironic (or perhaps descriptive)... and in the thread about saidit he was complaining the mods don't have enough power on saidit. Hopefully he can now be a mod without censoring the opinions of others, but if not then he'll lose his mod privileges.

This is the reason we have mod rules on saidit, and if we let this continue unchecked then we're basically back to the reddit echo-chambers that made the site so unbearable to use. The mod fiefdoms that create echo-chambers gets old really fast, it's one of the things that I most dislike about reddit. Each subreddit is its own little minefield because of rampant mod power-grabbing, trying to control the information flow in a biased way. I'm also glad we have open mod logs to help expose bad and censoring mod behavior. Maybe in the future we could made a sub like "ModeratorCourt" or something where we can specifically have posts like the OP.

The sub is private now.

So it is. He's censoring everyone on his sub, and is blaming it on "the admin situation" even though we're the ones un-censoring people...

Talk about not acting in good faith... I'm giving him one more chance
