Well it seems like we have very different opinions regarding post deletion.
Not having a right to free speech is understandable, that's not the problem. In this case censorship isn't a problem because it violates free speech, it's a problem because this thread is explicitly meant for the explicit purpose of explicitly giving feedback to moderators. Removing that feedback is, pardon the 'impolite' word, retarded. And then you go and tell him "I'm sorry if your feedback was ignored, you are very valued. Now I'm going to make it so literally no one can see your ****, haha. Tough luck loser! That's what you get for DARING to defy me!"
I have now seen the post arc made that was deleted, and it seems to me that you are literally the only person that had a problem with it, based on what I have seen. It sure as hell did not deserve the reaction that it got from you. But what else is new? Yeah, I know, I don't have a red flag under my name, but you asked for feedback and you're getting it.
You know what posts make sense to delete or censor? Posts that link porn. Posts spewing archaic racial theory. Posts spewing hate speech. Go ahead, delete that stuff, I don't want to read it any more than anyone else does. But you know what I do want to read? What everyone else wants to read? Maybe, just maybe, we might want to read the criticism of our community manager, in the forum moderation feedback thread. Evidently, you didn't want us to.
Do you really not see the problem with deleting a post that gave you feedback because you didn't like the feedback? Do you not see what deleting a post did, and how it would have been worse than literally any other approach? It was literally all fun and games and derpy memes, and it would have stayed that way for 24 hours tops, but now it's caused a ****storm. Again. ****storm means more people come to the thread, the post (which arc saved btw) gets shown to more people. All you have done by deleting a post is create an uncalm atmosphere and make fewer people respect you. It takes a real genius to make a place less calm by trying to force it to calm down by senselessly deleting harmless posts.
If you'd like them to be addressed, your best bet would be to send him a nice PM asking him to be more polite!
No. That is not my best bet. My best bet should be that a moderator who is presumably an adult will behave like one and address points being made. No one in any world I've been born in legitimately believes that my best bet in this situation would be to go tell people they're being too mean and should respect you more. Respect is earned, bro.
Also, way to completely ignore Ev's question bro. Talking about sex =/= posting pornography. If you want to make it a separate rule, fine, but then you better go take care of all the sex talk that happens outside the sex thread now that it's gone.
