@thewebofslime, are you out of your minds?

You are going around now, claiming the v/pizzagate lead mod hacked your website, and launched a DDOS attack?

I can't believe it.

I read your v/thewebofslime submission, the convo you had with @Vindicator on your v/GreatAwakening submission, and parts of your convo with @Vindicator on your v/pizzagate submission.

I meant to take a break for one or two days, and am just here to check my PMs, so I will say this only here in this one comment:

If you think that someone hacked your computer, and launched a DDOS attack, then present evidence. I mean, actual evidence, with proof that a specific person did it.

Going around, and smearing someone as a potential hacker without any proof is not ok.

You can be pissed off by @Vindicator because he required edits for your recent v/pizzagate post, you don't have to like him, whatever. But smearing him with this accusation is definitely a no-go, both in general, and also regarding his position as a v/pizzagate mod. It smells of a shill attack. (And please note I am trying to stay ladylike regarding my wording.)

You see, I helped you because you did a couple of good posts in the past - these (here, here, and here) come to mind.

I wasn't able to understand why you were not able to adhere to the v/pizzagate submission rules, although you're obviously smart. I don't know who you are, and what you are up to, but I gave you the benefit of the doubt.

I will tell you what I have told numerous other users who tried the 'muh v/pizzagate is compromised' narrative:

1) v/pizzagate is not compromised. I was a mod for ten months, and nobody offered me any money, ever, or tried to influence the way I modded.

@Vindicator asked me whether I would like to become a mod, although he knew that I am non-partisan, not an ardent Trump supporter, and not a Q follower. He could easily have asked someone else. The same applies to @kevdude, when he sent me a mod invitation some time later, when Millennial_Falcon was demodded, and they were looking for a new M mod.

@Vindicator and me might have had disagreements recently, but he was a good friend. I know him very well. He is 100% legit, and he has worked his ass off the past two+ years for this sub.

Trying to portray him as a compromised operative, and a hacker bangs head on table is mean and malicious.

2) The rules of v/pizzagate were made by the community. Not the mods.

@kevdude wrote them at the time, discussing them with the community, due to the flooding of the sub with cp and shill posts. We had regular rules discussions within the community, and they were adjusted accordingly; the recent major change was the introduction of Rule 6, since the majority of users felt they wanted to have some info before clicking on a link.

If you don't like v/pizzagate and its rules, you are free to post whereever you want. The rules are transparent, they were known by you before you came to the sub, it is your decision whether you want to post there or not, or create your own pizzagate research sub. If you don't like a specific rule, or would like to propose an additional rule, you can always start a discussion on v/pizzagatemods, and invite the community over for a discussion.

@Vindicator is not the villain mod you are trying to paint him as. He actually gave one of your posts the 'Share!' flair recently, and he didn't even flair the post, although it didn't adhere to Rule 2 - you posted pngs and jpgs, but without any links.

A Non Nonsense Summary of Pizzagate

That's what he wrote in his mod comment:

Great summary thread, Web. I'll give it the Share flair. :-)

Here's another recent post submitted by you which he obviously appreciated, see his comments on the thread:

Edible Schoolyard Project. $167,000 Solstice Fundraiser. James Alefantis. Jim Comey's Personal Email. A Serious Woman.

And again, he was lenient, and didn't flair the post, although some of the jpgs would have required links. If you had submitted the post in my modding shift, I would have flaired it.

On a side note, that's a further proof that your recent allegations that your posts were targeted by the mods are definitely not true. Quite to the contrary, @Vindicator was very lenient.

I asked you whether you might want to crosspost your recent v/thewebofslime post to v/pizzagate. I do that frequently (asking for crossposts) when I see good posts on v/pizzagatewhatever, or v/news.

I already found it disingeneous that you wrote that I had asked you to crosspost your post to v/pizzagate, when the v/pizzagate post looked totally different from the original post with the three chan links. But I tried to help you editing it, since I think it was a good post, and I disagree with @Vindicator here; I can see how you took the three chan links as a starting point, and then added content confirming the research in the chan links. Imo the post is totally different from the 'links in links in links' 'Sarah' shill posts we had; your post made sense and is coherent imo, especially since it was meant to be a Pizzagate summary post (see headline).

Now I feel like a total idiot, since I supported you, and now get associated with someone who obviously has malicious intentions by trying to smear the v/pizzagate mods.

Thank you so much.
