You gave your reason as that it would be good for you and the community as a whole to do so. That is different from that you now say that you do not respond to those notifications from me because you consider the outcomes by me to be unlikely.

You wrote,[...a deputy did sanction that post...].
I say not. I have a rational basis to think that the post was not sanctioned by the deputy because it is my understanding that for something to be a sanction, there needs to be a threatened penalty, of which there is not by the deputy. The deputy did not follow the script in the allowing of the anti-Semitism to be seen in a link, {provided that the deputy asks for the post to be revised}, of which there is no request from the deputy to revise the link. And worse, there are numerous anti-Semitic statements in the link, not just verse 16. By the deputy not following the venue that you created for the poster to post links with anti-Semitic content, the poster could continue with impunity to post more links with antisemitic propaganda which had the link to Matt 27 to follow, which had no request at all from you or a deputy to revise the link.
And worse, by the deputy telling the poster not to post such type of statements in a link, the poster went ahead and did it anyway.
A subset of readers could think that your TOS/FAQ is a sham by having a rational basis to think that because your TOS states that you use the Golden Rule in what you do and that you try to be fair, which those readers consider to include equal treatment and equal protection provided by your rules here which I am denied by you by your not responding to my notifications which allows the posts with anti-Semitic content that I have alerted you about, to be archived where you give them by your self- made rule,impunity from sanction.
Let there be no misunderstanding here. The forum is for support, and anti-Semitism posted here is not supportive by me. You could open that post and type in something like:
Operator's note:
Be advised that we do not validate the antisemitic propaganda seen in the link to John 5 as in verse 16 and others. We will be removing all of the anti-Semitic content posted here and it will be an undertaking requiring some time. If you could help us to do the removing, please send us the link to the post and we will appreciate it.
