Ok I had a thread that I posted that I was sent something on Facebook that I wanted to get others views on the validity of it
and I didn’t notice that at the bottom it said “like and repost” and it got cornfieled for spam… is that the only reason it was reported? and if so might i get a reconsideration?
This is how you appeal.
That wasn’t the only reason it was reported and then moved.
I’m going to stay out of the decision making on that as the mod that made the first decision.
I will say that reposting something a friend sent you is hardly what Great Debates or P&E are suppose to be. It was a lot of old retread stuff that has already been debated ad nauseum and yes, that last piece made it pretty much spam.
The full time GD & P&E mods are @Hari_Seldon@raventhief they can of course overrule me. I’m just helping out this week.
I would have done the same. Thank you to What Exit for taking the action.
This was a re-post of something you apparently have no opinion on (or at least, not enough to comment on it in the OP). It’s a retread of things that have been covered a lot already here.
“Here’s what some random person somewhere thinks, what do you think” is not really a great conversation starter.
IANA Mod but by way of friendly advice let me note that, as with YouTube videos, just plonking in something someone else made with nothing more than a “What do you think?” doesn’t really work here. It’s always best to offer up what you think and why you’re sharing it here (by which I mean something more than “I wanted to know what you thought”). Sometimes a summary may be warranted as well, especially for videos.
If you want engagement, actively engage. Otherwise it’s just spamming.
