Shot in the dark, but, so far as I can tell, at least one element of the anti-mod campaign(regardless of the mod targeted) is to deliberately make shit submissions and ultimately create a need for swift and excessive submission removal at times - multiply this by the course of a few months, a year, so on, it makes sense that some are going to eventually develop an itchy trigger finger when it comes to identifying and stamping out shitposting as quickly as possible.
@Millennial_Falcon has been one of the more active moderators and as such, it makes sense that he's sifted through a lot of bs and probably has a list of identifiers a mile long - sometimes the desire to be efficient can lead to mistakes in judgement, but, I firmly believe that MF's intent is to help.
Unfortunately, in order to help, he has to be willing to enforce the rules as consistently as possible - which DOES include taking down potentially legit submissions, if they don't meet the rules initially (I believe in giving time to edit, of course). It can be morbidly discouraging, but, it really is just a push to clarify/flesh-out what you're presenting - if you take it as less of a "we are censoring you" and more of a "help us to understand what you mean", it's easier to go back over your post to see what might have caused the rule breach.
All of that said, if you consider that there is a blatant effort to sew dissent around here and to undermine/usurp the mods/subverse rules, to cave in and remove MF or even @Crensch, would be a 'win' for the anti-mod crowd, it would foster further attacks on other mods, which already happen anyway - they're testing the boundaries to see if they can get an ACTUAL pedo supporter into the mod team - gotta wonder who...
