extreme bias towards known posters on GD & Gameplay

I will not specify who but there have been obvious biases among some of the moderators and "visible" posters. I do not care whether you duo Q every night or shitpost in memes & games together, I want absolutely no bias in moderation. If I say something against the rules within a comment, delete the portion that is unacceptable, NOT the entire comment. I am tired of debating someone with light banter to have it completely removed because of the buddy buddy system. Moderation was a terrible idea

So, I looked at recent actions taken against your account, and as a neutral third party who has no clue who you are, I agree with the removals (both the one a few days ago and the one today). It is up to the moderator to determine if a comment will have enough content left after removal of inappropriate content to justify editing versus deletion. There is no requirement for a comment with inappropriate material to be edited - if the moderator feels the comment should be deleted outright they are free to do so if the comment violates the Universal Rules. If you think a moderator is showing bias in electing to edit certain players' comments versus deleting others, please come talk to us in the Boards Moderation Discord server so we can investigate your concerns further.

Meh, I could see some bias being justified just based on reputation. But yeah, obviously there can be unreasonable bias. Maybe there should be NONE at all, but in my opinion, having a good reputation could lend itself to leniency.
