Current Events > Mods deleted my pokimane n-word topic

(+) Yeah! (+)

For the OP video

Guess she really did say it then

I only read ~15-20 posts but one of them said she was talking to someone named "Nico" which is a pretty common name in the gaming sphere for some reason, so I will assume it was deleted because that's what actually happened and thus it was removed for being "clickbait" (even though that probably wasn't your intention)

A lock would've been more appropriate most likely if that's what happened.

What was the mod note? "trolling?"

Offensive material / hate speech

Heeey Nico, wanna go bowling?

Gamefaqs confirms that she said the n-word

You should confirm things instead assuming something that's clearly not true.

Do tell, what happened then? I really didn't want to read 200 posts on a streamer I don't watch.

Even if it turned out the word she said was "Nico", there was another post that showed her saying the N word at an earlier point. So she's wrong regardless.

(I'm 99% sure she said the n word in the example listed in that topic's op as well)

So wait, does that mean we cant post a clip from Boondocks or Chappelle Show if they say the N-word in it?

I think that was either always not allowed, or very risky to do.

Ive posted Boondocks clips before and got away with it, but yeah I wouldnt in the current mod climate.

People get modded for posting rap songs that have the word in it. It isn't very often but if someone wants to report it, it can get taken down from what I've seen in the past.

Generally the rule is that you're not allowed to link to material that violates the ToU. I would guess the argument is that even if she didn't say it, you posted the OP under the assumption that she did thus meaning it violates the ToU because she said it.

I find it pretty questionable that someone actually marked it though.

Probably for the best. There was a dude in there simping hella hard and giving people negative reviews on their game guides based on what they were saying in there.

Also some drunk German dude that was stretching the character limit in each post cause he really really wanted to defend his right to say the nword.

lmao wat

It's just a question of if anyone is going to mark you or not. But feels like there's some rule-stickler mods hanging around the boards, lately, who are more likely to mark a post if it breaks the rules, rather than the spirit.

Swear to God a woman could literally be the resurrected soul of Hitler and you'd still have some users here going "I'd still hit it!" if she was conventionally attractive.

And yet this is even sadder

Welp that makes it official. She said it

I'm sorry you got modded for it, TC.

I posted the tweet where she dropped the bomb twice yet got away scot-free and now I feel sort of guilty lol.

Yeah, I feel this is the reason. It didn't sound like she said it to me, but the context OP gave made it suspicious.

The mod is probably a tier 3 sub /s
