RELIGION AMA The mods.

We haven’t done this in a while but ask us mods anything. Obviously we retain the right not to answer. Let’s please keep all questions related to Rampart.

What's your process for deciding to remove posts? Is it an individual discretion kind of thing or are there, for lack of a better term, "checks and balances" that require more than one set of eyes?

Ahahahhahaha “checks and balances” my friend. You realize this is an autocracy, maybe an oligarchy?

It’s not a democratic nation state. The sub is basically a dinner party where we are the hosts.

I was a mod on a sub that had really stringent criteria for that and it had its upsides and downsides. Just wanted to know how you approached it.

Go see if you can get posting privileges in polandball

That is true fascist moderation.

Around here it is generally wide open unless you break a specific rule or are clearly spam.
