Post in question
@Millennial_Falcon cited rule 3 for removal, so I'm going to operate as if that's the litmus test here.
All titles must adequately describe post content and must establish direct relevance to pizzagate.
All the title does is list 4 things, one being pizzagate. It insinuates a link, but does not say for sure, or how, or through what new source or info.
Still, possibly acceptable on its own merits if we take the insinuation into account.
EACH link in your post must include a description of content and how the link relates to the post
I rest my case.

I actually think the rules are pretty good. I think its the interpreter of the rules that is the problem. The lead mod does not fit in. I think its that simple. If that does not solve it then maybe tinker with the rules? But the rules actually look decent to me. And to be honest with you I don't know if there are enough interested parties left in the sub to have a rules discussion that would be very meaningful, its that bad.

Do you know where to find other 'interested parties' and see if they'd be interested in coming back for a new rules/moderation discussion?

And to add, even if the board owners go, and the mods, the only way I think people would come back here is if some known users were put in charge that they thought would do a good job. Changing the names in the sidebar and keeping the same people won't work, too late for those games. This place is blowed the fuck up and there probably is no repair at this point, and to be straight up truthful, a lot of people think that was the goal all along, to blow this place up and stop the investigation. It is perfectly reasonable to people to be suspicious too.

Is vindicator no good also? I thought he seemed more well-liked.
Personally, I think the community does quite a lot on its own to divide itself. I think it's also rather possible that the mods (I'm talking specifically about the day-to-day mods) are trying to fight of what they see as shills, too.
I don't think anyone would be involved with PG if they didn't have a suspicious mind.

Yes, he is well-liked by the community. Some might beg to differ with me, but that's only natural - you'll never find a mod everybody will agree with.
I think what people appreciate the most is that he's sensitive in a good way, and that he's got emotional intelligence - two essentials if you're modding. Being smart is not enough.
Also, he's patient and takes the time to explain and to help people.

A much better mod than falcon. I disagree with vindicator on letting Q into the sub because it has created a lot of division in the sub and lets face it an anonymous person on the internet that claims Soros got kidnapped and locked up in Camp David, and then only to show up and heckle Trump at Davos, is not worthy to be in a sub that deals with child abuse. That is v/conspiracy or v/politics tier stuff. Soros isn't the only huge bag of lies to come out of the Q bag of lies. It does not belong here but to answer the question yes vindicator is a much better mod.

I don't really follow the Q stuff, so I can't verify or deny your specific claims.
This may be a good thing to put in the rules discussion, if you're going to add to that.
Were you around when PG first moved to Voat?

I watched it as it happened but at the time I was not posting here.
