Hello u/Flaux454, thanks for your submission, but we've had to remove it for the following reason(s):


RULE 5 - Smite relevancy

Tangentially related content (such as real-life photos, statues, carvings, paintings, tattoos etc.) which are not directly related to Smite as a game are not allowed.


If you have any questions or concerns, please message the moderators. Direct replies to official mod comments will most likely be ignored.

RULE 8\*

It is in fact, rule 5.

Also, please don't follow me around like this, it's weird.

No, I think I'll keep doing it. Normal users are not prohibited from doing so, nor are they properly recognized when they do. You don't get special treatment.

I wasn't prohibiting you as a mod, I was asking nicely as a person because it's very annoying to deal with someone following you and spamming.

However, since we're obviously having a miscommunication error here, I'd just like to kindly remind you of Reddit's spam and harassment policies which also prohibit "following someone around the site". Now, I'm sure you definitely didn't want to say that you were doing exactly that with your "No, I think I'll keep doing it" comment given that you care about rules so much, but if you do fail to abide by those same rules, you might receive appropriate penalties due to your breaking of said rules now, and in the past. Have a great day!

Maybe we are having a miscommunication, because if I didn't know any better, I might think you threatened me just now.

You seem to readily ignore said rules when it benefits you, and even persecute people who are victims of said abuse. So don't talk to me about rules when you have a very clear double standard. And if you don't like it, then you should step down, but we both know you won't because you enjoy the power.

In short, you're a dick and you will never command the respect of this community.

You can be petty now and ban me for standing up to a bully.

Okay let's discuss it out in the clear. I don't know where you got the idea of me following people around the site to spam them from, but I've NEVER done that, and it's frankly confusing to me. Furthermore, why would I persecute people for being harassed? Every single one of my bans of active users was because they were abusive to others, I'm putting my word behind it. I don't need you to trust me, but you obviously seem to have a completely different idea of me.

About stepping down... Yea I won't? I'm prepared to leave at any moment if need be, I'm not too attached to my mod spot and it isn't my life, it's just a side thing I do so yes, I could step down and I'd be fine, but I won't because I want to help make /r/Smite a nicer place.

This brings me to my last point. I mod because I wanna clear the sub and make it nicer, not to have petty squabbles over the internet. What a waste of time that would be. So I will be clear now. Knock it off or you will get banned. This isn't a hidden threat, this is me saying to leave me alone. The same rules that apply to everyone apply to you and me both, and I will not be bothered by someone who doesn't have better stuff to do. You're obviously welcome to comment on me like any regular user, but stop haunting me on the website.

Also, for an account that is a year old but only is active 20 something days at this point, you strangely quickly started with the hate on me, in your first few days if we're precise. Couple that with the fact how you're saying I've "persecuted" people in the past, something that's not publicly visible... You wouldn't happen to be ban evading, would you?

Don't like what I just said? Send a modmail instead of pointlessly replying here. Maybe other mods agree with you.
