I'm OK with us banning certain topics if we as a collective, with weight on long-term members, wish for that even if I personally disagree.
I'm not OK with the fact that we were never consulted as a community when Dom copy-and-pasted the rules. This is a stance that I've held from the beginning, btw, it's not a new reaction.
Originally it was stuck in a pinned thread, and then copied over the sidebar when newcomers had problems with it.
He has been becoming very heavy-handed for months and months (over a year? would have to check receipts), and some recent removals are far more objectionable than the past.
So we actually know (for sure) that Dom is one person, and not, like, multiple people using the account at different times..?
Because I’ve never been sure about that, and it sure as shit would explain… The sort of “split personality” we sometimes see, at least in the “mod space”…

We don't, but then the same could be said about every single poster on here and it just leads to conspiracy spirals where everyone online is a dog a bot or shill and discourse breaks down completely.

a doga bot or shill and discourse breaks down completely.I have never had any reason to believe that Dom is more than 1 person, be it on Reddit or WIN.
Faggot at times - a lot in the last year - sure, but multiple personalities? No.
What if unknown scored/.win superbeings can get into any login (ex. Spez) including moderators? Surely that seems quite possible.
Sure, but we put our faith in the platform when choosing it over SaidIt, Poal, and other alternatives in the 1st place.
They have been transparent with GlobalFilter - which you can apparently ban - as noted in mod logs, and the presence of "C" under Moderators.
If WIN has or later goes rogue, not much to do other than to realize it and select a new platform.
Nothing so far has convinced me that this isn't just Dom being retarded though. I mean, it's not like some didn't raise the same concerns within the sticky - https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/GIJF3rpD/welcome-ashore/
Interesting idea I hadn't thought of. You're on to something and upvoted.
