I've noticed a lot of really benign comments have been getting screened lately. As a flat memer, I'd see nothing that violated meme rules but the comment count would go down. Have there been new, unofficial rules added recently that explain the uptick in censorship?
We haven't added any new rules, but if we're screening a comment, we have a reason. If you have a question about a specific comment, I can try and answer that.
Do keep in mind that we have IP logging on right now and could be responding to suspicious IPs, people responding multiple times to the same comment as if they're different people, etc. that might not be obvious to flat memers.
Again, if there's a specific comment and you don't understand why it was screened, we're happy to explain. I can't respond to a broad inquiry about "censorship" except to say that if we're screening it, we probably don't think it's benign.
