heuristic is being disingenuous and fairly faggoty here.
I was extremely clear and open about this entire process.
I even reached out to you via PM last month or so to let you know I was inviting Heuristic as [O] mod here.
In fact, I left the invite up for 2 weeks and not only did heuristic not accept, but he didn't respond to my PMs either.
And here we are now...heuristic is trying to raise a fuss over something that I didn't do.
Not only have I not deleted a single comment or post since the last debacle, but I did everything people wanted: I nuked all the old mods, I held an election, and after proper vetting I invited heuristic as co-owner of the sub.
After 2 weeks of silence, I got concerned and rescinded the invitation and I sent heuristic another PM to ask if he was still interested.
And yet here we are.
Everything I've just stated here should be very well documented and I'm extremely disappointed that this larp of a witch hunt is happening again.
This entire post is disingenuous at best, and I say that after developing considerable respect for OP over a number of years.
I didn't write the rules of /v/conspiracy. As a mod, it's my job to enforce them.
Here's my version of events:
About a month ago, I received a PM from a user that claimed they were being harassed, and they linked the offending comment.
After seeing that the comment had been reported multiple times and that it violated rule 2 of our sub, I opted to delete it.
FTR, in several years of moderating /v/conspiracy, it was the second or third comment I've ever removed, and it was only because a respected user of the sub personally reached out.
For those who may be unaware, until this incident /v/conspiracy has had negligible moderation.
Fast forward to OP noticing (or being informed about) this single deletion.
While reading a thread where I was being accused of improper moderation and being a reddit shill, I sarcastically referred to /v/conspiracy as a "subreddit" in an attempt at tongue-and-cheekery.
The resulting drama has been so reddit-like that my subtle jab has become practically prophetic.
Now that my "name" has been proverbially dragged through the mud, I don't really have any reason to attempt to defend my "honor".
Because of this drama (which although misguided I actually do believe is rooted in a genuine desire to protect free speech on voat and the internet in general), I've decided to remove our rule 2 (which again I didn't write!!), and I've adjusted rule 1 to target just spam.
And for the naysayers, we do get literal spam to porn sites etc. There has to be some sense of decorum, even on a voat conspiracy forum.
I will always love voat and I will always be a conspiracy theorist.
Please contribute to our sub in a positive way.
I will offer my resignation if anything non-spam gets removed from /v/conspiracy in the future.
I've been here since the beginning and I'm proud of every single contribution I've made to this site.
Fuck no. And fuck Israel. Tired of getting censored over their small ass corrupt country. Haha this will probably be deleted. So I’ll say it again. Fuck Israel and their corrupt motherfucking agents. I. E. The mother duckers cheering on 911 as witnessed and reported, but widely dismissed.
I suppose it's inevitable that as Voat grows in size and importance, we're going to get Reddit-style censorship creeping in. The liberal fags are like bitter old spinsters -- they can't rest until they control our lives and put themselves into a place where they get to tell us what to say and do. They naturally gravitate to the moderator positions. Once moderators, they can't help themselves -- they have to impose their social and political views on everybody else. Give them power and they will abuse it ... always. That's what the people of Russia discovered after their communist revolution.
They can do whatever they want. Users have the ability to call the mods out on their bullshit by linking to the moderation log. The moderation log is what separates voat from eddit where we have proof that the mods are pushing an agenda.
When a sub is being (((controlled))) we should just create a new sub in its place and put a V after the name of the sub(example: ConspiracyV) to show that it is a sub created because the old sub was censoring, then migrate the good users to the new sub and sticky it for a while on the main to help. Fuck these censoring kikes

You don’t speak for me, stfu with "the community wants it" bullshit.
So yes...OP actually originated the niggerfaggot soap opera, and yes he did express interest in being a mod here.
Guessing this all started 2 months ago ?
Yes.
Is he a regular poster or commenter ?
No.
Also, I have the PMs to prove that I invited him to be a mod here (as co-owner!) over a month ago, as well as proof that he didn't respond for over 2 weeks before I rescinded the invite.
I got pissed the other day when retardsMossad shills kept spaming blog bullshit right after a good submission was made, and then if got buried real fast.
It is much harder to bury submissions when you have to make original content, and it keeps plebeians from spreading stupid crap.
Atarian ago
Isn't that what our downvoats are for?
The communidee can decide what it wants to see by downvoating shill content into oblivion.

The algorithm is simple:
Is it spam?
Yes: delete it.
No: delete it and say it was spam until you get called out on your bullshit.

Well you know the current and only mod in this sub is part of the r/conspiracy hijacking on Reddit with the Cuck and Hypocrite https://www.reddit.com/user/AssuredlyAThrowAway

senpaithatignoresyou ago
OR
You make a sub based on each thing censored.
Like a "Jewish conspiracy" or a negro conspiracy sub. If they go to the trouble of shutting it down, then we should take a closer look at it.

Hell No!

community asked, even demanded it. the community wants the only mod removed or another mod added, that is community appointed: http://archive.fo/VExDL http://archive.fo/D3MfB

Heuristic is being an EXTREME faggot with this entire post.
I INVITED OP TO BE MOD HERE LAST MONTH, KEPT THE INVITE UP FOR 2 WEEKS, AND HE NEVER RESPONDED OR ACCEPTED.
Total, 100% faggotry.
Rotteuxx ago
Is that so... so since I'm new to this niggerfaggot soap opera, did he ever show interest in being on the mod team ?
Guessing this all started 2 months ago ?
Is he a regular poster or commenter ?

So yes...OP actually originated the niggerfaggot soap opera, and yes he did express interest in being a mod here.

not at all
senpaithatignoresyou ago
No.
If they keep doing it, we will take our ball and go elsewhere.
I have been contemplating creating a conspiracy sub that will have a "no links to blogs or youtube rule"
Too many psyop, data slurp, tracking cookie government agents spaming this sub.

the current mod was a main player in stealing the reddit sub and owns this one. he is known for deleting and censoring.

KosherHiveKicker ago
Didn't /v/conspiracy go through this same problem with moderators a few months ago?
axolotl__peyotl ago
Yes. At the community's insistence, I removed all the other mods and then invited OP here as co-owner.
He never accepted and now he's bitching.
It's actually pretty pathetic.
SpazeDendy ago
And before that too. Hence /v/realconspiracy was created.

yes. he promised to appoint a mod, voated on by us.
