that's what I got, the link that was sent doesn't even work

but here's

"Specifically, the golden rule of don't be a jerk and hate speech. "

So he called me a jerk, and he took a term out of context and attributed it to hate speech, which is also false. It was self referencing and therefore not hate speech

as defined on wikipedia "Hate speech is speech which attacks a person or group on the basis of attributes such as race, religion, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, disability, or gender.[1][2] In the law of some countries, hate speech is described as speech, gesture or conduct, writing, or display which is forbidden because it incites violence or prejudicial action against a protected group, or individual on the basis of their membership of the group, or because it disparages or intimidates a protected group, or individual on the basis of their membership of the group. The law may identify a protected group by certain characteristics.[3][4][5] In some countries, hate speech is not a legal term[6] and in some it is constitutionally protected.[7]"

Since i referenced myself with the term, Which is a term used by people of my S.O. (want my grindr snapshot?) I fully find him to be at fault for misrepresentation of my character

The mod in question wrote below, with an incomplete and contextually inaccurate reply.

You attacked Ulan with your post calling him a kid, insulting his intelligence, and being a jerk. You also used the word "%%%got" which is against the board rules. I'm not wrong here when I deleted your comment and I would appreciate if you gave everybody context in the future. Thank you.

Hello, do you have a link to the post in which he said this?

Hey all,

I'm locking this thread as it seems to be going in two separate directions, neither of which is constructive. Please remember to create your own thread if you wish to discuss something other than what the OP of a thread is discussing so as to not derail the thread. Further, the action has been explained by the moderator involved. I, quite frankly, agree with the action taken and the reasons given.

It does not matter who the hate speech is directed at, words that are considered hate speech have no place on these boards whatsoever (except in the very limited case of discussing an in game punishment due to said words). It does not matter if you consider yourself to be a member of the class being disparaged by the term, the vast majority of society considers such words to be inappropriate and offensive. Further, on the internet, nobody knows you're a dog - as such, all they see is you using an offensive word and you don't know who you may offend or hurt by using the hate speech.

Considering the action has been explained, further discussion of this should take place in the Boards Moderation Discord server where we are able to discuss one on one with an individual in real time why something is removed, and where it's easier to get a second opinion if someone feels it necessary. For this reason, I will be locking this thread.

The Moderation discord is open to all to discuss general topics. While we won't discuss actions taken against someone else's account, we are happy to discuss the rules and the application thereof with any of the Boards community. Please feel free to join us there if you ever have any questions or concerns about moderation :)
