Is this mod being for real? Or is this BS? Is it possible for mods to get threatened to take shit down?

@djklbd, this is probably true. r/pizzagate -- the whole entire subverse with more than 20,000 subscribers and numerous threads -- was completely scrubbed from Reddit under the same logic -- that it violated the Reddit TOS about personal information.
Voat's standards are different -- you can share any legal public information, as long as you don't dox another Voat user. The difference in TOS between the two platforms could be a problem for Reddit moderators.
On the other hand, they are basically saying that an offsite link to where information about people can be found is the same thing as a Reddit user posting the information directly, which seems a bit overzealous to me. They are not responsible for what is said on other sites. Under this logic, no links should be shared on Reddit at all, since anyone, anywhere that allows comment (Breitbard, Facebook, etc.) could comment in a way that violates Reddit rules.
