So I was browsing, and found this. On the front page. Hours old.
I went to look for it again and it was gone. Luckily I had left a comment so I could find it. When messages, the mods said that it violated the subreddit rules because it was a screenshot.
I think reddit works best when people vote on content. This post had made the front page and had thousands of votes, a robust conversation in the comments, cool links in the comments, etc... and was deleted HOURS after its posted for supposedly violating a subreddit rule.
Is everyone cool with this? Doesn't this take good, fun content thousands of people liked and delete it because a half dozen people think it doesn't fit? How is this congruent with how Reddit is supposed to work: as a platform for voting on cool content and having good conversation?
