btw, I am not the head moderator, droog_uk is. As far I know, he is the only one with full mod privileges on that site. I only relatively recently got the ability to ban people.

May I suggest Gatsy? He thoroughly rejected my offer today, you have no competition.

Thanks @Melvin- Moderator what you wrote was well written. Please DM me anything you have a problem with on Reddit because I don't go here as frequently. But I will absolutely take a look at anything you share with me

Gatsby, thank you so much for taking the time to find that! Now for the explanation: That's not me. That's another moderator named FUEUF. Look at the top of the chat, it's a completely different user name. There's 4 moderator, the head mod Droog_uk, gokiburi_sandwhich, the one in your chat, and me. This is why it's so important to go to the link of the source so that we can establish a factual timeline. There was a mixup between me and another moderator. Thanks god it turned this way. It really seemed that you were ready to never speak to me again. This resolution almost didn't happen.

Quick update, I was wondering if there are multiple private threads possible for the same user. It would explain the DM disconnect between me and Gatsby but not the other stuff. But it would be start. I just went back three months of my messages, when Gatsby first made his comment, and I don't see any other thread from him. Again, the only thing that was in there was what he posted a screen shot of.

I do not like being on your bad side, but anything that we can do to find the source of our interactions. I feel that there is a big disconnect. I would like to clarify things. But yeah, like you posted the screen shot of, my 3 messages to you are the only thing in our chat history. Perhaps there are other DMs, and if you reply to one of them, it will appear on the whole thing. I appreciate your attitude toward hair mills. For those out of the loop, on Reddit, a moderator can not delete comments, just remove them from their own subreddit. Mods are always able to see a copy of the comments, and well as the users. If you go to Gastby's reddit profile, he only has a single comment. Furthermore, you can can use tools like unddit, removeddit and others to see any mod removed comments directly on the subreddit, so you get moderator view. Again, no removed comments from Gatsy's profile in the thread he commented on. Don't need to take my word for it, any other subreddit will verify.

I'm saying I haven't been able to find anything. Like you saw in our chat, there's only the four messages I sent you. Just in case somehow somewhere there are other messages, can you send me a message. It might push the chain through and we might be able to see everthing. But I'm looking at our chat box, and there's only the 3 messages I send you.

I really don't have a strong opinion on Bicer. Again, if you could just link me where the issue occurred, I would love to wrap my head around where you are coming from. But at the moment, so you seem to be coming from a different reality, and you probably perceive that way about my comments too. Lets link where the issue occurred, so that we can resolve the disconnect. But it's impossible without going to the facts and source. You have looked at your account and seen what's there. It seems that you are in a state of mind where you are not believing anything I say, but maybe I can convince that I definitely 100% can not delete chat messages. It's totally impossible I believe on any platform.

Yeah, like I mentioned, the only messages I see in our chat are the ones I sent you, and that you posted a screen shot of. I am unable to find any DMs like what you describe to me. That doesn't sound familiar to me. Can you link where I said that? I am not familiar with Bicer one way or another. I'm having a hard time imagining any context where I would say that. Again, can you link me the discussion? Evidence for what? That doesn't sound like anything I would do. Can you link to me where you think this happened? Mods can't delete comments, only remove them. Anything that was removed can be re instated. Perhaps it was another moderator. Please send me a link so that we can get to the bottom of this. But even though mods can remove comments, they still appear in your user profile. When I got to your user profile, your only single comment that you linked are there. So no moderator on any subreddit has every removed your comment. Also, I don't believe lopsided is a moderator, like, anywhere. He can't delete your comments. Okay thank you for your consideration. There seems to be a disconnect between what you're saying. It seems to me you may have gotten mixed up at some point. Stalking?? I have great respect for you, you have a high volume of helpful and informative comments, and I appreciate every hour you put into the community. I understand that you have too many good things going on to spend more time on this. I appreciate the efforts to bring things to my attention but so far my guess is that you got mixed up at some point.

I just put out a statement clarifying that rule 2 protections have extended to all non-public members of the hair transplant community. Thank you Melvin for bringing this up to my attention, which led to the rule improvement of my subreddit. Although I can be criticized for banning someone about a rule before it's even created, I have given a 1 week temp ban to this user, and considering longer. I rarely ban, if you follow the thread on reddit I posted in the modsupport subreddit, you can some of the justifications why I don't ban often and if I do it's temp bans. The vast majority of the time they correct their behavior. But I also wanted to send a message that we should approach each other with empathy. I can also be criticized for not going far enough. I know Melvin will be one of those people, and I will take in that criticism but I'll also say, look inwards. Thank you Melvin for providing additional details of the IP reveal, it'll inform my statement, and if I do put out a statement, I provide that statement in it's full context, and like all statements about HRN, HRN will always be allowed to provide a statement that I'll gladly edit into my post.

Hi Gatsby, Yup, that pretty much aligns with my experience. In my chat those are the only messages on there. And yeah, that's the only comment I see from you on there. Did you say that we had a long chat before? If so, I'm not sure why they aren't showing up on chat but this is the first time hearing that you tried to contact me.

I removed the comment, he edited, and then I re-approved it. I will be making a statement shortly. I may need to make one as well if you did indeed expose one of your users IP address at some point in time. I have a link to the post in question, you wrote " I removed the IP, but confirmed this is definitely the same person and banned him for duplicate accounts. " Which indicates to me that you did expose it at some point in time. Please provide any additional details you can about this situation.

Qui bono, linked me the thread, it appears Melvin took it down a long time ago. It was still messed up that you published his IP in the first place.

I'm trying to get to the bottom of the disconnect. You said we shared private messages? But when I look at the chat history from your account, I just see the msgs I send you yesterday

I found comment and took care it. The screen shot he shared has both the IP address and general location.
