    Yeah. I figured you weren’t aware (same for a lot of people who downvoted the original comment).

    Op is not consistent about cropping signatures or removing credits. A lot of their older posts didn’t have credits removed.

    I’d like to think there’s a possibility that their post was a joke for April Fools but posts before April 1st and after it kind of refute that. They also continue to double down or feign ignorance like I’ve seen on other posts to avoid being called out or to try to shout down people who call them out for their own behavior. Both their post and comment history are telling.

      You figured correctly. In fact I just looked and while I had seen the ‘motion’ post, I just gave it a vote and went on my merry way. Didn’t notice there was an upheaval going on.

      I skimmed through a fair amount of the offender’s comments, and I could sort of see someone making a mistake and lashing out in refusal to admit they messed up, but as you say, the doubling down makes it seem they actually believe it.

      The community mod sure is in for a surprise when they return. Hopefully it gets sorted out quickly.

      Thank you for the additional detail.
