I need advice. I'm not sure what to do anymore. I have a problem with a mod. I am also a mod in a few different subs.
I am posting on an alt from my account that mods a few communities and usually participates in this sub. One, because I want to keep the sub and the mod I'm talking about a secret per sub rules, and for myself. Also, because I don't want this mod to recognize me if they are in this sub.
Anyway, I've been having an issue with a mod. We had a small argument where I didn't realize they were a mod. I don't really want to get into why there was an argument, but I ended up having to file a code of conduct complaint because there was a serious issue in public and in modmail against me. I know that was successful.
Later, I ended up having comments repeatedly deleted for breaking rules when no one else in the post was deleted for breaking the same rule. After this happened several times I decided I was definitely being targeted and filed another code of conduct complaint. Not sure how that went as of course the admins don't tell you what happens, but the mods have been leaving me alone.
Until today. They deleted a comment of mine for a rule that in no way fits what I said. What I said did not break any rules at all. I've been very careful not to break any rules since the last issue because I do not want to be the cause of anymore problems.
It's just one incident, but now I'm paranoid that the targeting is going to start again. I really really do not want to stop posting in this sub. I guess I could use an alt, but that would be a pain to change accounts whenever I post there, and honestly I know I will screw it up eventually. Plus, is that against sitewide rules?
I don't even know if this question belongs here. If it doesn't I'm sorry. I don't know what else to do or where to get advice.
