And it got modded for being offensive.

Holy shit there are so many snowflakes on this board. I'm not directing that at everybody, and if you're not a snowflake, there's no reason to get offended; if you're offended by me saying that, then you're probably one of the snowflakes. I made a claim that it was a false-flag operation. I didn't take a jab at any single one of you. Not even at someone who called me an idiot and a troll.

But whatever-- let's continue the left/right shouting matches, bitch about statues, and continue arguing about why skin colors are still relevant in the 21st century. I don't understand why people continue to argue and dwell in the bullshit that our bought-out media feeds us all instead of discussing the topics that really matter. I wish we could all just get along the way that neighborhood kids do, yet discuss the serious topics like adults.

Perhaps I could understand a moderation if the way I'd posted it was tasteless, but I pointed the finger at my own government instead of pointing it at groups of people, political affiliations, religion, ethnicities, or in any kind of way that would have negatively affected anyone on this board. If my family had been affected by 9/11 directly, I would want people to know what really might have happened. Speculation is healthy. Logic, deductive reasoning, and critical thinking are healthy.

I said RIP in my post pertaining to the victims. I really don't understand how I am at fault here, and I cannot wait for Allen's GameFAQs revamp to take effect.

I'm noticing a very disturbing trend lately-- if we don't understand someone's way of thinking, we attack it instead of trying to see their perspective. I refuse to take part in it. This is how they keep us divided. They have conditioned us into that way of thinking.

Called 9/11 a false-flag operation, got attacked for being a conspiracy nut.

9/11 didn't happen and the mods are right to shut you down for spreading misinformation.

Actually, those were separate people. Although technically half were calling you idiot and the other half were calling you troll.

It's extremely tasteless and these conspiracy claims are often used as an extremely offensive way of trolling, whether it's pretending that the government was behind 9/11 or the Sandy Hook Massacre. Not to mention it's probably the most tone-deaf day to post that claim on.

You're deliberately spreading misinformation. While there will always be legitimate points of contention on a great number of issues, batshit insane conspiracy theories which belittle tragedies are something else entirely whether it's claiming that the US government's weather machine has been used to trigger hurricanes and tsunamis or that one of the least competent administrations in history somehow pulled off what would be the most impressive scheme in history without anybody except some cranks in their mothers' basements noticing.

I didn't do anything. If I get warned for this, I'll probably just leave. I enjoy most of the users on this board but I'm done with the baby stuff. Getting modded for reasons other than attacking other users is dumb and I don't understand it.

If every crank woke up and started asking questions, there'd be a lot less hate going on within communities and a more watchful eye on the people who more than likely mean to do us harm rather than good.

What's your problem with me? I was never rude to you. Just pointing out that we're adults and shouldn't get modded like babies. Or do people here prefer that?

I was prepared to if people seemed interested, but knowing many on this board, I'd rather test the waters before compiling an essay. Glad I did, too.

That's not what you agreed to when you made an account. It has nothing to do with being a baby and everything to do with the ToS. Content posted can have consequences.

You didn't post a conspiracy because you didn't want 3000 lives to be forgotten. You posted a conspiracy because you wanted to post a conspiracy. Memorializing the victims and conspiracy theories are two wholly separate entities.

No, it was both. Please don't put words like that in my mouth.

Such as Jen's posts about periods, perhaps? She just accepts her fate that she was offensive? I thought that was bullshit too. And you're right about ToS, but those are meant to keep order. Not abusing it for the sake of power. But you're not wrong at all.

Did you not read any of Jen's posts in that topic? She was posting about how ridiculous and funny it was.

And before you get all defensive, I didn't think your topic did anything wrong. But then I don't even remember what you put in the OP of that topic.

Are conspiracy theories against the ToS? Will I get modded if I say the moon is made of cheese?

There is a world of a difference between your silly example and stating that thousands of lives lost (probably some friends or relatives of other users here) were at the hands of a government plotting a terrorist attack. It's seen as offensive and trolling, depending on how it's framed. Hell, I only saw the title of TC's topic and knew it'd get deleted eventually.
