I thought you could flame people who aren't users like a person in a news article?

When was it changed so you couldn't flame non-users?

ID is 14711445 if a mod is around. I'm really confused since I'd like to know if we cannot flame non-site users so I know how to proceed from now on.

The mods are inconsistent about that.

Trump is a racist piece of shit. His no tolerance policy is inhumane and wasteful.

I'd ask on MBH/ATM but both boards delete it and going to HH is just asking to get trolled.
So I'm kinda confused

Flaming

Don't insult other users, either individually ("You're an idiot") or as a group ("Everybody who posts on this board is an idiot"). This also includes implied insults ("Are you stupid or something?"). Once an argument degenerates into name-calling, it's time to either step back or clear out.

Is there an update of this? I'm really curious when Allen decided to change it to "anyone" instead of what's written officially.

It wasn't as far as I know, otherwise half of CE would go down after a Boogie thread.

That's what I'm wondering which if it wasn't changed then the only answer is the mod misread and thought I was quoting the user instead of the article the user posted which is obviously not a good thing to have a mod do so I can't explain that as it was a nkl.
But the mod said

Using "REDACTED" in this context can be viewed as insulting, please refrain from doing so in the future.

Your first mistake was expecting the ToS to actually be relevant. Its not. The mods make up their own rules and they are encouraged to make up different rules on a per-moderator and even per-moderation basis. And they never have to explain why you are modded or what part of your post broke any rule (existent or non-existent). If you go to dispute, expect it to be upheld with no explanation. If you ask about it on say, HH, expect to be suspended. You should also expect this topic to be locked in the near future.

When was it changed so you couldn't flame non-users?

It depends on which politician you insulted and the mod in question's political stance. Take note most of the staff seems to lean left.

Yup. Mods have no rules. They become the rules.....the soulless...soulless rules.

Just as a quick clarification, insults towards non-users are 'usually' fine (I say usually because they might be offensive or alike).
Regarding your moderation, if you read the post as a stand-alone, you can probably see why it got hit - you didn't mean it like that and it's just an NWD if I'm not mistaken, so I wouldn't sweat it.
Hope that helps!
