So, apparently shit post mods will just remove posts with positive upvotes without any mod mail or explanation. - eviltoast

As per title, submitted a post here that as far as I’m aware met all the rules, it had positive momentum before I went to bed, wake up and no post and no messages or notification that it was removed or why except that it’s just gone. Discuss.

    Hi. I am the mod who removed your initial post. Frankly, It didn’t fit the content of this sub. Allowing it to stay would set a bad precedent for future posts. There has to be quality control in a place. As Aer said below, we want to keep a light hearted atmosphere around here.

    Positive momentum doesn’t factor for posts that do not fit. If anything, it only encourages sooner action because leaving it up will have more people making similar posts.

    I stand by my decision to remove your post. I hope you understand. There’s other places where you can post it.

      That’s fine, I’m absolutely OK with that decision. It would have been nice to have some sort of notification of the mod action that I could see and access from Jerboa to prevent confusion, and I’m now aware that it’s a limitation or oversight of the current state of development of the fediverse.

      It just would have just been nice if all this information was made more readily available rather than having to go through having a post removed and left in the dark as a new user.
