It has been suggested that I moderate and I have a invite from the owner @kingkongwaswrong. The reason for this is not to step on toes but to advise on this deleted fiasco. Many don't understand the way voat works in that we don't delete things. We let it be up to the community and voat that shit out.
Now one exception is ckear spam. We no like the spam. You want to advertise buy a slot. You want to be a troll then get some negative ccp and have restrictions. Simple as that. Now this clearing out the new list like a Hillary Clinton server isn't cool.
Before I accept this I want to ask you if this is acceptable because this is your community and your subverse. I don't want to make anyone here pissed off.
So please discuss and leave comments I will answer as I can.
Forgot to add.
I am at work so all comments will be answered at around 6am est.

tbh I've dropped out of moderating the sub intelligently, I'm hoping the new mods can pick it up a bit. My energy;s been sapped and I can't process things correctly.
its a hard topic because you need to be up to date to be able to figure out whats going on and classify. We havent even figured out what our flair system is.
So much of my time and energy has gone into this political mess tbh. I understand you guys are interested in protecting free speech but I've been following the guides you set (aside from the mods I added deleting comments which I can't do anything about), and I still get tonnes of bricks on my head and massive pr cleanups.
rip am of half a mind to just abandon ship. You guys have made it really hard for me to integrate, with such an important and critical subject matter. There was no reach out, there was no talk to discuss the needs of the sub, there was nothing but judgement from afar and pouncing on every mistake/issue. All I've had is people trying to take the sub off me since day 1.
I think I would have literally deleted my account rather than weather the shitstorm if it wasnt for the support of some key people.
