A post like this only makes the mods look bad. Every day you (the mods) are digging yourselves deeper and deeper. It is NOT normal for a mod to start a thread calling good people 'cunts' for some silly excuse for a fight. That is what Crensch did, and now Srayzie is confirming that she things some users are 'cunts'.

People are not stupid. They will come here and work it out. They will see mods undermining those they have power over, mods abusing people by calling them disgusting names and mods accusing users of nonsensical stuff.

I don't know what game the mods are playing at, but this tactic of starting threads making personal attacks on users, many they've never even interacted with, makes them look like idiots. There is clearly one rule for the mods, who can and do call users 'cunts', and another rule for users, who get some of their pretty pertinent and relevant threads taken down.

It's a pity what the mods have done to Voat.

Piscina, in the off chance that you are trying to be a legit v/pizzagate citizen, you should know that Voat is not like Facebook or Reddit, where users expect moderators to govern the language people use in order to maintain so-called civil discourse. Voat is about anyone being able to say anything they please, and other users being able to up or downvote as they please, and say whatever they desire in reply. The culture of Voat -- outside of v/pizzagate -- doesn't just accept offensive speech, it revels in it, because it's one of the few places left where there is liberty to sling in around.

Which is why it's the only place folks can post their research into the pedo elite and know it won't be buried, shadowbanned or otherwise shut down.

Furthermore, because anyone can say anything, if you want respect on Voat, you need to be able to defend what you say with supporting material.

v/pizzagate mods are attacked on a regular basis, and no supporting evidence is given in support. Just about every member of this community who is an open-minded, critical thinking contributor with a solid account history has been asked to join the mod team at one point or another over the past almost two years. 90% of them have turned us down because they have witnessed numerous episodes like the one you contributed enthusiastically to last week, in which moderators are lied about, attacked, slandered, blamed and accused of all manner of nasty, immoral motives and behaviors simply for doing their jobs. It is incredibly hard to recruit good moderators for v/pizzagate as a result. In fact, the bashing @srayzie got over researching QAnon's intriguing leaks about VIPedos in v/pizzagate is what led her to create a separate subverse.

As the only active Owner of v/pizzagate, which gets more shilling than anywhere on Voat and requires mods to thin out the shitposts and disinfo to prevent valuable content from being buried, @Crensch is therefore completely within the realm of what is both reasonable and necessary to make the thread he made and demand that those who want to hurt the reputations of mods provide evidence for their claims.

And frankly, what word would you use to describe someone who used the large following they cultivated by posting freely on Voat to tell numerous users that Voat mods gave their IP address to the Cabal so they could send men to her house to assault her? Jem777 took advantage of the safe and focused forum protected 24/7/365 by us mods to make baseless accusations designed to instill fear, distrust and discord in minds of those we serve.

If that isn't cuntish, I don't know what is.

There is clearly one rule for the mods, who can and do call users 'cunts', and another rule for users, who get some of their pretty pertinent and relevant threads taken down.

Evidence, babe, or GTFO. You'll never have anything removed for bad language, so long as the post follows the rules. And there are far more rules limiting moderators than there are limiting submitters.

Stellar comment. Useful as a reference for quite a few situations that pop up rather often here, I think.
