I noticed Violentlight used an old post for the last mod conversation. I was confused at why at first, then I noticed that the discuss button was not available, only the link one. So I fixed/switched that.
I wasn't around yesterday, but caught up on the Treddit issue. The guy is just trying hard to be a martyr and frame us as bad guys. He failed though, and is a non-issue. Good job handling it politely but firmly.
Did anyone respond to AOUs spam reports? I have given him the spam definition we use in past, and asked him to not make false reports. Doesn't look like he listened.
You've had this explained to you multiple times already. But I will do it once more.
This is the definition we use for spam:
Spam being defined as irrelevant posts, chronic reposting, or advertising is not allowed in any capacity.
You know that, but keep making false reports anyway.
We enforce rules that are approved by the community. If you don't like the rules, and want to see them changed, do not harass and play games with us. That will not gain you anything. Instead, convince the community. You can make a post in /v/videosModTalk, or in /v/whatever, or anywhere else appropriate and try a discussion.
If others felt the same, we would listen. But we have spoken with the community about exactly this multiple times in past. We also just had a feedback sticky post.
You do not speak for Voat.
We listen to the community, not a solitary user that thinks playing games is a reasonable way to get what they want.
Threatening the admins? Bluff called. Do it.
They won't care any more than we do. As long as the community is happy, we are content. I am certainly not going to start deleting things you feel should go, even though they don't break a rule.

If you guys keep protecting spammers and helping them to reach voat's front page, you will get reported to admins.
I'm not the only one noticing that you willingly ignore blatant and obvious youtube and dailymotion channel spam.
Is there a financial reason behind this behaviour? :)
