    If you can read you can probably find a written review yourself instead of commenting on a video essay that you don’t like videos

            He is not. But he is a regular, who posts hight quality content most of the time, and is well known for that.

            So which side would we chose? A random guy trying to gatekeep for some personal reason a valid content, or someone who consistently post high quality content, participate in the community while, with some exception, consistently respecting the rules?

            Such a difficult question…

            I realized I probably badly explained my point here. I will not act differently for someone well known in the community or someone new. The rules are the rules.

            The unwelcome behaviour here is the gatekeeping. Videos are welcome, as are links to article or plain text posts.

                You break a rule, we remove the offending content, that our role. Same goes for him, he insults you, he got his comment removed.

                  This mod comment is in contrast to your previous mod comment, where you were publicly weighing the commentors status in the community to gauge whether to take fair action.

                  While I agree with OP, I’m glad to see “if yoire a dick, you get treated equally” win out.

                    You are right, I shouldn’t have put it this way. The most important is for all to be equal before the rules.

                    But I agree with simple, the act of gatekeeping because of what kind of content is shared is not welcome.

            Are you surprised your aggressive comment got removed after I reported it?
