what counts as giving attention to alts? The rule is shit. You're giving attention to alts by making this post and mentioning them.

it's when some troll comes and some users think they're doing good by making a post about it and telling everyone about it... like no doofus you're just doing what the troll wants

Tha isn't clarified in the rules. It just says any posts funny or otherwise giving attention to them will be disapproved.

That leaves it open for mods to take down ANY post connected to troll alts, like this, even though there aren't any troll alt follows going on right now.

maybe bad wording because what I said is literally why the rule was added

Bad wording is why everyone calls this mod abuse. They need to clarify it more like they did with the NSFW rule, so people stop saying mod abuse, and mods stop abusing. You've probably done it before as well so I see why you don't see a problem, but I can assure you it's there and it needs to fixed

but I've only disapproved posts that are "telling everybody about troll alts" and they said it's mod abuse. in fact at some point I was known for "abusing mod" and this was all I had done

you said what makes the rule is stupid is that it "leaves it open for mods to take down ANY post connected to troll alts", I said I don't do that and I only disapprove ones that need to be disapproved so by your logic I'm not mod abusing.

I also said it leaves it open for you to be able to take down any post connected to troll alts. So if you wanted to you could mod abuse without losing your mod, and some mods do in fact do this, specifically acid_freak. Thats the problem and thats why it needs to be adjusted

So if you don't do it then you're not the one I'm talking about? Im talking about people who do, I thought people who act this way are the people were talking about. I haven't directly accused you of anything this whole time, infact the only the time I mentioned you was when I tied your post to mod abusers.

tldr if you are innocent then I don't care

I recall msmg talked about the rule for several days when it was just added so I think we had made clear what it was really about

There's a difference between "telling everybody about troll alts" and simply mentioning them indirectly.

in my opinion, the "giving attention to troll alts" rule applies if you are directly mentioning the trolls (like their username)

exactly bro it's literally in the go***amn rules
