I'm sure I am not the only one who knows what a mod log is. Surely a mod would know...
I ask because I've seen you cry shadowban before, I believe. At that time it was also explained to you that mods can't shadow ban. Just ban, either permanently or with a time period. So it's either a glitch, or you deleted it yourself.
Apparently there is a difference between what mods and many of us conspiracy posters believe it is. To me and many others if an author's post or comment disappears to everyone but the author it is a shadow ban. Wether you agree or not, that's how we see it.
This time I'm complaining about something else. When the mod deleted my post a message showed up (for everyone other than me) saying I deleted it. That's a bunch of crap.
There is no option to do that in the mod tools. If we delete something it just says "comment deleted'. Unless something has changed with the new website. But I'm using the new one and the mod tools are the same as the old as far as I can see.
As to when a mod deletes a comment and you can still see it but no one else can - that was the same on reddit. I agree it sucks. That's why some bright spark made that reveddit extension that notified you when it happened. Maybe we'll have something like that here one day.
The screen shot above is the message I get when I look where the post once was.
Edit: that's what I see when I'm logged off this site.
