No. But some users seem to have limited understanding and self awareness in regards to how their posts often fail to contribute anything worthwhile.
If you don’t like the mods of this community, go make your own (blackjack and hookers optional), instead of posting whiny questions because a mod (me) removed your post once upon a time.
Your attitude is actually rather common, unfortunately. Might makes right etc. It’s probably built into our monkey brains.
If you’re finding attitude common, you may want to check your own shoes.
