Why did these get taken down?

{quoted}

You created a discussion about whether or not Chris Brown's music was sufficient to ignore accusations of assault in his private life.

You continued that discussion by concluding the physical assault was justified.

I'm sorry, it's difficult to take you as an honest broker here when you interpret my conclusion, "Mr. Brown shouldn't have beat her up, that's not cool," as justification of Chris Brown beating up Rihanna. How did you interpret that as justification?

edit: Furthermore, what rule did I break? That was my question, not, "What is your fallacious interpretation."

{quoted} This was two months ago:

You then launched into an extended promotion for a product based on the idea the product was "alpha" enough for you.

Weird interpretation, but the question is, what rule was broken?

Wait, if product promotion is against the rukes; are my posts about free games via something like humblebundle/gog against the rules?

This was taken down as a promotion of a product to boost testosterone. Also two months ago.

So I posted a thread with lil Jon's song Get Low and I wrote:

Hey guys! My rap name is Low T? Do you know why? Because I have low testosterone! I'm sure a lot of posters here definitely, definitely have low T just like me.

Then once we fix your low T we can buy you some gold grills like the cool guy you know you are!

Did you really take this seriously? How do you read this thread and say to yourself, "Man, this guy must really be selling testosterone over the lol client. Lets get him!"

This was removed as a promotion for Viagra.

You're welcome to that opinion, but you should know that product promotion... ...never been permitted. Ever.

That's not the question, the question is why you're so heavily moderating the board now. Back when it was Riot employees, I would write clearly satirical posts about Viagra regularly. I can pull them up right now and show you they weren't moderated at the time. But now, you guys just moderate everything. Why?

This was removed as a promotion for Viagra.

Funny, because none of the threads I asked about had anything to do with Viagra or ED.

You were banned for breaking the rules three times in one day.

I don't think so. I don't post new threads on the boards frequently enough to have three threads in one day. If that's the case, can you show me the time stamps?

Do note that readers won't have any idea what this thread is about until mods come in and explain it, because no one but they and you can see the deleted links. If you only wanted to hear from the mods, you could talk to them privately on Discord. They have a decent amount of patience if they think a conversation is going somewhere.

I don't know how to use discord and I don't think I should have to learn how to talk to the mods.

Part 2:

This content was removed for precisely the same reason as the first, with the added problem of attempting to justify a physical assault. You may have opinions on whether or not that behavior was acceptable, but that is also not appropriate for the Boards.

What part of the post justifies physical assault? How can I be justifying something when I specifically say he shouldn't have done it?

None of the posts were about ignoring that Chris Brown as a bad guy, the post you ignored I even spelled that out for you.

So let me ask you. Does my clear intent for the post matter at all in moderation or is it what the mods think the only thing that matters?

Part 3:

https://i.imgur.com/nKUbiJh.png[/img] (I've removed the product link)

This was the third of the removals from July. It was escalated on the basis of repeat offenses and for trolling with mention of sexuality and masculinity.

When I said explain the rules I broke, I didn't mean relist vague ideas here.

First off, it wasn't a troll comment, renpure is great!, second it didn't attack anyone's sexuality, and masculinity isn't a rule is it? What does that even mean. Like I said before, you guys come up with vague rules and just remove the content you don't like.

Part 4:

https://i.imgur.com/vwyZnhe.png[/img]

This was removed for product promotion. No suspension was applied. This content was removed three days prior to Part 3.

This is a clear solicitation, even if it was intended in jest.

In what way?

Part 5:

This was removed for product promotion. No suspension was applied. This content was also removed three days prior to Part 3.

I really hope you don't need to have that explained to you.

I don't. I also didn't ask and agree it would vaguely fall under the guidelines. The other posts -don't- fall under breaking the rules which is why you're having such a hard time directly answering my questions.

As always, if you continue to have questions or concerns about this action please visit us in the Moderation Discord here, but this will be my last response to this thread, as I consider the matter settled.

BTW, do you want me to link you to all of the posts of this I've done in the past that the mods haven't done anything about? Because you dismissed my question of why you guys are moderating so heavily right now. Given I have proof this exact same post style was never moderated in the past, would you directly answer the question, why are you guys moderating so heavily?

Like I said at the beginning of the post. I don't know how to use discord and I don't see why I would need to use a third party program to resolve and issue here, unless you wanted to specifically keep the contents private.

You look oddly familiar.

Always blaming the mods, huh?
