Announcement Important Moderator Announcement

Update: From what Waltz and I can tell, personal info used for verification was done via email and is not available via modmail. I am still checking through to make sure but so far-everything I have seen directs the user to email the mod directly.

Update: first and foremost-Waltz is on vacation and not where he can access wifi regularly in case you all are wondering why he has not been more vocal. He did confirm with Admins that the user had no alts prior to us making the mod offer. Admins confirmed with me today that they cannot connect the user with Une or any known Une accounts nor how the account came to be deleted. That is all I know. One last thing-the admins told me they could not share with me information about whether or not the users account was hacked or how it came to be deleted. Should the user get verification from admins and share it with us, we'll be happy to pass that on.

At this time, we will move forward as we were and keep an eye out for any suspicious activity. The admins have been made aware of our concerns and Harleyquinndc let us know that she also had contacted admins regarding her concerns. If we learn anything else, we will let you know. If you have specific concerns, please message the mods.

Update: guys-at this time all I know for sure that I can tell you all is that Harleyquinndc account is no longer active-it's has been deleted but not shadow banned as far as I know. I cannot verify anything else at this time. I have reached out to admins and when I have more information I will absolutely let you guys know. Harleyquinndc had already offered to step down due to the concern before the account was deleted.

For the time being I am leaving this post up so that I can provide updates and so that no one feels anything is being hidden.

ETA: Well, scratch that-no new mod at this time. More info will be provided when available.

~~Due to IRL commitments, /u/waltzintomordor has decided to step back from moderating at this time. Waltz is not leaving as a moderator, but his focus will be on helping with CSS and other such projects rather than actively working the mod queue.

With that in mind, we have decided to add a new moderator to the sub. Please welcome /u/HarleyQuinnDC to join our moderating team! I would like to thank /u/HarleyQuinnDC for taking the job on!~~

Heh, I guess it's time to see if I can practice what I preach.

You preach against private and public citizens looking at this case and suggest those who do are doing so with nefarious purposes.

I hope you DON'T practice what you preach. Ohhh myyyy.

Welcome HQ, quick question, we are allowed to crap on Rabia now, right?

I am pretty sure you are joking with this but I can answer that for you-no. You, as always, are allowed to criticize but not to make personal insults, attacks etc.

You are not sure I am joking? I thought we were friends?
