I’ve notice that posts in this community tend to get deleted, even ones with multiple comments and/or useful information. Even worse is when they get posted again by some other user a few days later.

What’s going on? What’s the policy around here?

    re: Gnome and professional shaman – that one was pointed out pretty quickly as being misinformation (known troll with an archive.org post dated an hour before their “prank”)

      Can you explain how exactly the evidence was created? Did some people create fake pages months in advance?

        from the post debunking it, it was that it wasn’t “months in advance” that was the giveaway – for a website that she was supposed to have been using for several years for her business, the only snapshot archive.org had was dated an hour before the accusations started getting posted

          Ah, I was thinking about the claimed social media pages though. I’m currently at “work” so I can’t verify yet.

      Could you link to information on this -specifically on any work debunking it. I can’t seem to find any in the usual places, in fact googling shows stuff like https://youtu.be/NrzseZQotu4?si=1rQtbo9mwfAEt4sL which seems to corroborate the weirder claims. I suppose the channel might be part of it.

      Having said that, this sure feels like a troll and it would be pretty funny if it were. Thanks!
