I posted 2 normal PoB's on the forums. I post nothing in the way of self-promotion. I was following the rules.

PS.. Do you think other poe youtuber content creators get treated this way ?

PS...2 - There is no issues with my build at ALL at ALL !!!

You were given criticism of your builds, and treated the critics as though they knew nothing about your build/the game.

At a glance, the above seems to have been your only engagement with the community so far, which isn't a good look for you. I'm not a content creator, but I think it takes a special type of person to truly engage with a community while insulting them, and you don't fit that mold.

But wait! You're on at least your 4th reddit account for posting builds! Two were suspended, and one was deleted.

And yet, there seems to be no reflection going on here. To you, it's other people's fault you aren't getting the recognition you so rightly deserve. Any criticism of your build isn't because the build has a flaw, but because others don't recognize it's brilliance.



No, it doesn't look like you broke any rules. But it does look like you have no intention of participating in the community other than to post your build videos, and insult people who criticize them.



Additional context: Using a third-party site to try and view the deleted post, it doesn't seem like it was removed by a moderator. The site is suggesting that your post was removed seconds after it went up, likely due to a spam filter or automod.

Meaning, it wasn't a human moderator's active decision to remove your post after it went up, it was removed by an automated system.

I'm not worried about recognition at all. I'm being blocked out of my views and thoughts on path of exile. They are making up rules to block my content.

How would you know if any of my accounts where banned ?

The mod even said he removed it. Omg..


PS.. If someone slaps you are you going to just stand there and take it ? Do i look like a punching bag to you ?

What's wrong with my build smarty pants ?

I challenge anyone to talk to me about my build on stream and tell me something is wrong with it.

Hell, i'll do it in discord too or even person.

Bring that shit on.. I'm ready to take it to the next level!!!

Okay, last post in this topic (hopefully) because otherwise I'm gonna be here all day.

Very simple question:

Did you or did you not participate in at least 10 other posts or discussions ON the PoE subreddit (Not here, or on a different subreddit, or on youtube) before self-advertising your own content?

Yes or no answer only please.

And before you start going on about "only 2 self-advertisement posts per week" being contradictory, you have to follow BOTH of those rules. 10 unrelated posts or comments on r/pathofexile AND a maximum of 2 self-advertisement posts per week.

It does not say i need to follow both them.

Another guideline is to post no more than two self-promotion posts in a week

guideline - any guide or indication of a future course of action

It clearly states guideline in rules.

I wish I could choose one random rule from PoE ToS and ignore the rest because "it does not explicitly say I have to follow all of them at once" :)

They put it in the rules. It clearly states another guideline. I'm not the one that made it.

you don't need to care

The path of exile subreddit is bluntly taking some of our civil liberties away from us.

Preface: Look, I am not saying the Path of Exile sub-reddit isn't moderated by knuckle draggers, but that is going a bit far.

Response: Reddit is a privately held company, your ability to post there is predicated on whether some Moderator wants to let you post there. The actual problem is that Path of Exile, like most game sub-reddits are heavily influenced by the people who run the game itself. So if you post negative things on that sub-reddit, a boot licker will remove it on the request of someone at GGG.

They also selectively enforce guidelines there. There can be negative discourse between users on that sub, and if you are not the white knight, you will get suspended from the sub-reddit and the white knight won't. You can post negative meme's about garbage design and it will be called fluff, or something else, and removed. But you can have people posting about how they found two mirrors in one drop, and it will go to the front page. That sub is heavily curated to look favorable for PoE, as anyone should already be aware.

Now you have to understand GGG's side of it. They can not let negativity completely infiltrate the mediums they control. They are a business and have PR they need to up-hold to try to keep sales up. So if you piss them off, you will get nailed, I mean look at ParrotOfMath (or what ever his name is) and how he got treated for talking smack about Chris Wilson in a largely public area.

TLDR: You do not have free speech when it comes to privately held companies.
