    Moved to Helpdesk, as DRP only covers bans and infractions, nothing else.

    I've just had a look at the thread

    The mod edited your OP 13 minutes after it was posted (and before you started this thread). He removed all the narrative with the comment "gibberish removed"

    Having looked at what you posted, I think gibberish is a fair summation

    The mod's name is clearly stated as the person who did the edit (full site, not Touch) -Zzippy. I'm not sure you will get much further information by discussing it with the mod via PM, but please feel free to try if you wish

    I think what you say in these replies is gibberish and that summation is more than fair.

    1. Course he modified the thread after I initiated the it because if he had done it before hand then he would be a time traveller.

    2. I only made the complaint because it was removed, ie, after the fact

    3. He didn't remove the narrative "gibberish removed" because it still there, perhaps you meant replaced.

    4. This whole thing poses a follow up question, which you undoubtedly won't answer in a straight forward manner. If mods can act so fast on things. why don't they act when a racist slur is flung or a thread is baited for instance, perhaps the mods not impartial as I said before.

    I have no issue with what the mod did here and how he did it.

    If you do not like the "gibberish removed" comment I will delete the thread altogether
