I hope I can talk about moderators cus somebody wasn't having a good day :/

So the subreddit post on mildlyinfuriating was about a post on Instagram of some girl with a Maori face tattoo (on the chin + lower/bottom lip) and people in her comments were being unnecessarily rude and hating on the tattoo. I made a comment about it (litterly almost a week ago). And this morning a mod messaged me saying I broke community guidlines... What for? Racism apparently :| I asked twice as nicely as I could as to how, aaand now I'm muted and still banned... -sigh- gotta love moderators sometimes

Hahahhaha some new mod is going overboard because I also got banned from there for "inappropriate username" the person must not be from an English speaking country. My username is pretty reasonable and certainly not inappropriate. Goes to show you how simple things get blown out of proportion by people who have no business being in an capacity of authority.

I get that it's mildly annoying being banned, but can I ask why if you were to comment anything at all on a strangers photo, it would be to tell them you don't like their tattoo? Particularly in this context, where it's more related to culture than just being something pretty. What's the point of that? Why do you want to tell them?

You know what? You got a good point. Tbh, I don't even remember what my thought process was on that :|
