   Someone is posting a toxic comment about JMCs repeatedly. There is nothing of value on that thread, best option is to delete it:

   https://www.econjobrumors.com/topic/official-thread-for-brazilian-economists/page/50

   Kirk, your lazy mods are ruining the Official Thread for Brazilian Economists. They are deleting everything that gets reported even once and even if it's clearly not against any rule. I've reported posts saying just "okay" to see what happens and they get deleted. I understand they don't speak Portuguese and can't moderate everything, but even when we started posting in English this didn't stop. At least get them to not delete stuff in English, please.

   1) Toxic comment or not the fact remains: mods are deleting posts mindlessly

   2) The post mentioned is not toxic. It's just a silly joke about which JMCs will end up flipping burgers (a classic ejmr joke) and which ones will get top jobs. Names are not even mentioned. It's the usual econ twitter crowd hysteria.

   3) If you see nothing of value in the thread you can just GTFO and leave it to those who do

   Mods: Delete mindlessly
   You: Post Mindlessly

   Seems fair.

   I don't give a rat's ass to that specific joke, that's just a protest. The problem is getting posts deleted whenever 1 (one) easily offended idiot reports them even though the post is not against any rule. What's the purpose of EJMR if not discussing topics that may be too controversial to discuss in other platforms such as facebook or twitter? This moderation policy defeats the purpose of EJMR.

   The posts are getting deleted because the site has given you temporary mod powers.

   So you are the one deleting some of them. But keep blaming the mods, dumbass.

   Yes, I am crazy. I delete my own posts and complain. That’s clearly what’s happening, I am the dumbass not you.

   code for "mods are too lazy and dumb and delete everything that gets reported once". I wonder what's the IQ threshold necessary to see that a thread where everyone has mod powers would never work. I guess around 80 but that's clearly double the IQ of a mod. What kind of joke of man becomes a mod on EJMR anyway

   As I said, I reported a post with harmless content such as “okay” and it got deleted. If you understand the logic behind that your welcome to explain.

    Reporting alone is enough for automated deletions in some circumstances (which I won't divulge for obvious reasons)

    I like how mods hang out here gooding their dumb and lazy friends' comments. It is very satisfying to see how much of a losers you guys are. I also really like the inferiority complex showing (oh wow you don't understand the mod policy lololol you guys are deleting your own comments lol so silly).

    Do you guys feel depressed for being such a failure in life or are you so dumb that you don't realize that?

    I think you misunderstand the issue. This is an econ PhD forum, not a politics forum. We don't want you polluting our forum because in the past whenever you got 1 political thread you would soon enough get 100 political threads polluting the front page and there are no econ PhD job market threads. So f**k off to whatever troll farm you come from.

    If it makes you feel any better I report any political thread from any side of the spectrum just because I don't want troll farm employees wasting our time here.

    Imagine thinking that what you post here matters. Just imagine being that dumb. Now imagine being angry about it. That’s a special kind of dumb.
