I made this post yesterday:

https://poal.co/s/TellPoal/238852

Was level 11, had no mark at all and had something like 7 downvotes ever versus something like 1000 upvotes. I noticed they had marked and banned somebody who had made a brand new account with 0 downvotes ever. I remembered the mods saying how it was an algorithm that automatically labeled you with the tag I now have and then nukes you account. The same exact thing happened to . I wanted to be able to trust the mods here but after knowing for a fact they are just straight up lying it’s sad. I went to bed some time after making that thread above, had not made a single downvote in days and definitely not since making that thread. So not only do I know that an account with 0 downvotes can get the mark but now an account like mine that hasn’t downvoted in days and not since I made that thread can also get it. It just proves the mods are doing it. It’s not an algorithm at all, they just mark and nuke whoever they don’t like. And then I’m being accused of having alts. No, this is literally the only account I have ever made on this website and the mods know this but just do not care. I don’t know why they would lie like this. Just straight up say “yeah we don’t like you so we mark people we don’t like and nuke their accounts.” It’s that simple. Don’t just lie and say it’s an algorithm when it’s not. It’s just pathetic. I now know for absolute certain it has nothing to do with downvotes and everything to do with mod discretion. It’s funny. AOU literally marked my thread with the flair “fake news” and then nuked my account proving me right.

Lol you people and your “let’s see what he has to say.” Look at his behavior dude. Go look at his post history. He’s a piece of shit. He was caught lying and now is acting like a toddler. People are lemmings. I am not lying and I fucking hate liars to an autistic degree. He is a power hungry child blaming his actions on an algorithm. That is the truth. If not I who convinces people it will be somebody else.

Dude, I get it. All I am saying is that we don't know for sure 100% and if he is doing what you say then giving him time to reply wont change anything. If he is not guilty for some reason that we don't know then you could be creating a real shit show for him and this site. You wouldn't want that to happen if you knew you made a mistake.

I am not suggesting you are lying or that he is lying. I'm saying give him a day or two. Perhaps he is looking at logs right now trying to understand why he thought you were someone that needed this. Maybe he mistook you for someone else and tonight after work, he figures that out. We don't know and there is no harm in giving him a little time.

No, both he and I know 100%. You don’t know 100% but you will end up trusting him because he holds a position of power and humans are lemmings. Just remember this in the future when the same shit happens again okay?

And lol dude mistook me for somebody? He logged in at 5 am, saw the pings, didn’t like that he was being called out, marked my thread and nuked me. It’s that simple. Those are the facts of the matter. He has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt to be a liar who nukes accounts and then says “it’s the algorithm!”

Correct. I do not know. I also know that there have been times I was 100% sure and it turned out I was wrong. He might have got pissed off and nuked your account. If so not cool and depending on how he deals with it will determine what I do. I'd bet a dollar ex-goats will be watching too. This could take all ex-goats off the the site as well as who knows how many native bears. But we, not you, just don't know yet.

I can't speak for everyone but I would like to see you post to him about this where you are reasonable and non confrontational in a way that promotes ill feelings. It serves no one and clouds judgement. Who knows, maybe you are right about all of it but go to him in a respectful way he might say "yep, I fucked up. Sorry. I fixed it and here is my idea on what we can do to keep me or anyone in my position from doing it again. Do you have any ideas?" If that happens... I would have much respect for both of you and love for this site.

We just have to see.

AOU isn't doing any of that though. He's been here all day, on mobile, calling people names and acting like a typical faggot.

Yeah for even a neural observer he comes off as a guilty retard. If you actually know what he does? There’s no way you could respect him again.
