- IndySun 5y agoIt was a test, appreciate you pointing it out. Stemming from a conversation about different net censorship approaches. It had to be basic (and deliberately crude, hence wording) to compare forum responses to such inappropriate and unsuitable posts. The hard part was that one couldn't use a burner account. The YC response is wonderfully effective, yet almost muted. One place banned/terminated outright (though not everyone), muted for varying days, or suggested the post was deleted. I will not do it again here.
