Putting a Mod on “Ignore” on another forum

    So…..

    I post an opinion in a non political forum, but politically highly contentious thread. Basically “a national (general position) movement has taken an interest in (local instance) because it’s their greatest example of success.”

    A Political mod tells me to “eff off with your conspiracy theory BS”. I define “movement” as “a grouping of all the people who share a certain position on a topic, and are active in promoting that position, be that coordinated with each other or independently”. He doubles down on me defining it as an “unseen cabal pulling strings”.

    I am now ignoring him. I don’t know how reporting works in the new system.

    that’s the background. What I want to ask here is….

    What happens when I post on the forum he mods? I presume there’d be third party mods who’d oversee my posts, right?

    Moved from DRP, since this isn't DRP related.

    If you put a mod on ignore and miss a mod instruction, the consequences are entirely upon you. Mods can't see if you have them on ignore, ignore lists are private. Equally they can't accept a defence that you had them on ignore, as anyone could make that claim to excuse any rule breaking.
