Just in case people were wondering, how it looks when a post is removed by a mod vs when a user just deleted it -- the user deleted will show [deleted] for the user name and the post content.

Mod removed posts will still show the user name, post content and show "this post was removed by the mods". Posts can then be deleted by the original poster, but the post is mostly saved in its entirety -- it can be restored just as is, it is not truly "deleted". Only a user can completely erase a post.

Also, this means when a post or comment is removed and someone else doesn't agree, there is quite literally nothing stopping them from just re-approving it and having it reposted -- it is not deleted or "lost" just removed. It still exists, unless the user deletes it.

Just in case there were any questions about reddit UI, mod permisisons and BTS stuff 🥰

ETA -- the first post was removed for breaking fight club, and crossposting from a sub that has requested to not be crossposted, not anything to do with the content being discussed.

I can't say that this is from a redditor from here but it is word for word from comments on a post made here, on a FB post with relatively small reach long after the FB post was made (vs yesterday when the sales post was made).

But in case it's not clear, this shit is unacceptable.

We can discuss, we can argue, we can bullshit, we can rubberneck on the internet -- whatever. But do not bring that into other people's pages, interact with them, and otherwise disrupt someone else's business.

If someone doesn't pull AQHA panels for a horse they want to spend 30k on, or check their show record, or you know, have a conversation with the seller or trainer about the horse in question so all those things are unknown -- that is a complete lack of research and the buyers issue. Not your issue to provide 'clarity' on.

The only reason this horse got posted is because of a distant connection to KVS -- if there wasn't that connection, would anyone care to post clarity or comment like this?

No. This is parasocial. Get out of people's business.

As a reminder, touching the poop/going IRL is an insta-ban. And until further notice, sales ads that are pending sales are not allowed because we can't have nice things.

Knox has a soft appointment in the fall (when it's cooler, so less flies when there's a wound healing) to make someone a terrific gelding.

She said in the video that he is softly for sale even though they intend on keeping him until he is under saddle.

I don't think this is a huge surprise -- I'm in the very small Knox fan club, and even I'm ok with him being a great gelding for some one. I'm interested to see where he ends up! I think he's super cute and could make someone very happy, even if he's a little... Awkward right now 😂

Ironwood shared yesterday, Moose had a catastrophic pasture accident resulting in a broken front leg. He was able to be splinted very quickly by a vet, and go in for scans but it was determined that the break was severe enough that it would be extremely unlikely that he would even be pasture sound (5% chance).

With those odds, they let him go.

Horses are fast, and heavy and powerful-- which can be devastating in just the wrong moment with physics get involved.

This should be a solemn reminder that *even with the best of everything*, shit can happen that *no one* expects and it is no one's fault.

The mod team wishes good thoughts and warm feelings for everyone at RS and Ironwood who loved Moose and knew him.
