Reddit Moderation Removing Comments

Reddit is running an automated AI that previously was flagging comments to be reviewed by mods. Now it seems like it's automatically removing comments as "threatening violence."

In most other subreddits they'd probably be right, but mma training has a way of saying "you need to grab her neck and put your weight on until you're in a position to throw elbows" and it not be domestic violence related.

I approve the comment and reverse the removal when I see them. If you think something has been unfairly removed send us a modmail and know that it's probably reddit itself and not the r/MMA_Academy mods. Unless you're doxxing, spamming, suggesting illegal advice (telling a kid to bring a knife to school to defend himself) or just shouting racial slurs we probably won't remove it, relying on downvotes instead.

Also, watch your hyperlinks. I've had to remove some pretty great comments because they linked to a site that has malware. For some reason fitness sites have more of that than you'd think.
