Some SE and other online Forums are run by dictators

and some Reddit SUBs have quirky rules and moderators.


Here (below) is an example!

I once saw a post on Reddit advertising novabbs, just saying "Check this
out, it's a Usenet web forum"

That thread got locked and the mod comment was something like "Don't post
links to sites that are illegal. The admin is breaking the TOS of his news
server by letting people post on his site.

I posted that I'm the admin of novabbs and I'm also the admin of the news
server, so I'm not breaking any rules.

That got me banned, lol :)
