My post got removed and I don't feel it was justified

Long story short my post got removed under "Don't be a jerk". But how exactly was this "being a jerk"?

Hey R107 Games,

We've recently removed your post for violating the Golden Rule on the Boards: "Don't be a jerk: Always be respectful to players, community members, moderators, and Rioters. Harassment and insults will not be tolerated". Removed for bickering with another commenter.

Your removed content:

**> Classic R107 Games. Cant move on from the past, never gonna change. Cant grow as a person. You wonder why your old account cant get unbanned? Its your tragedy bro. Every comment you made here is a reflection of that. Projecting this “anti-sensitivity” when you are probably the most sensitive. Bringing up one day of my trolly posts cause it affected you so much, so personally.

This is why I love your comments.**

Now your resorting to ad-hominems? [...]

While we aren't taking any actions against your account at this time, please keep in mind that continued violation of the Boards Universal Rules and sub-board guidelines may result in future punishments.

If you have any questions about this moderation action, don't hesitate to reach out to the Boards Moderation Team via:

"Now your resorting to ad-hominems? Coolstorybro". That's litteraly all i said.

First of all. Where in the rules does it say I can't "bicker" with someone? And all I did was defend myself here, litteraly didn't even insult him. I held my tongue so fucking hard, but i guess it doesn't matter. Even post like this can't escape terrible moderation.

I mean the moderation was so bad the "Don't be a jerk" reason didn't even make sense because i wasn't being a jerk...

I'm not sure I'd have personally moderated this comment, but I do think that if your entire comment comes down to, effectively "Oh, you're being bad at arguing? Cool" then it is inherently a bit rude.

Had a punishment been issued here, I would almost certainly reverse it. As the removal was done in the interest of cleaning up rude behavior, however, and the comment in question does not add anything especially meaningful to said discussion other than an attack on another individual's debate style (something I see multiple times in that thread, and I would request that you and others avoid), I do not see a benefit to restoring the post in question.
