My thread was deleted for being off-topic but it was clearly related to league

"Mostly, that means stay away from stuff like religion, sex, politics, and social issues, **though some exceptions may be appropriate **(e.g., internet legislation)." is what the rules say.

I'm pretty sure talking about gender equality regarding League skins is one of those exceptions, I remember reading once on the rules page that those topics are allowed if they are related to League or video games.

The deletion message says "maybe another website or another forum community is a better place to discuss this topic". Really? So you want me to discuss League skins on another forum rather than a League forum? Literally makes no sense.

Seriously, this moderation literally went from helpful moderation like it was just 5 or 6 months ago to straight up censorship like it is now.

http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/player-behavior-moderation/4LgZ2EwM-universal-rules Tell me where talking about gender equality in League skins breaks any of these rules.

What board did you put it under? Personally I would put it under either concepts and creations, or under story, art, and sound. I don't think gender equality in skins would be against the rules, but then again I'm not an expert here.

It's an over-done topic that at this point is guaranteed to quickly divulge into pointless arguments. Basically, it's a bait topic.

The bolded part is why your post was removed. Your discussion was titled "I identify as a feminist and I have no issue with sexy champs." Social issues such as feminism are best discussed in other online forums. If you'd like to discuss skin disparities between the sexes in Story Art & Sound, there have been many discussions there you can join that have been discussing that topic that didn't start out focusing on social issues as their key point like yours was deemed to.
