It's not an uncommon issue.
- dang 10y agoBecause it was an off-topic, snarky one-liner. If you're concerned about judicial inebriation, there are other ways to raise the subject.

Inconsistency is annoying, especially in the dubious business of policing tone. Then again, I suppose it's the result of a well moderated community that you're left with idle hands to bother me with. :)
- lomnakkus 10y agoI posit that the simple explanation is that two(?) mods can't see everything. My suggestion: Don't take it personally.
- Aelinsaar 10y agoI'd humbly suggest that two mods worry about something more critical to the integrity of an online community than tone.
- dang 10y agoYour expectation of consistency is impossible. If you're asking about https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12285576 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12285576, that wasn't off-topic, and it was substantive because it alluded to a historical fact (assuming that fact is true—I haven't checked). It was a one liner, but not overly snarky. I don't see a need for moderation there.
