so i just saw this post in the new all feed … was deleted the moment i wanted to open it for being “off topic”.
pls, everyone, be nice to new users. don’t just remove their first post for being “off topic”. we’re already having a problem of not getting enough new users (link)
That post is just setting off all kinds of alarm bells.
What are the odds that something could impersonate them in a way that gets their account banned? And if that really did happen, why on earth would they not be able to talk about it?
Shady AF.
Off topic is off topic. Removing a post for violating rules isn’t mean, it’s maintaining the integrity of the communities people come here for.
yeah actually now that i look at it again, you might be right.
i kinda just saw “oh hey new user” and went into auto “treat them nicely” mode. didn’t actually note much what they wrote on their backstory
It’s a tell for delusional thinking/paranoia.
I think it’s more indicative of pathological lying
