Do you have any sources for this?

Deleted comment:

I called them out for not following their own community rules:

Please be nice to other members. Anyone not being nice will be banned. Keep it fun, respectful and just be awesome to each other.

and they deleted their account.

What was wrong with them removing your comment? You were being annoying 🤷‍♂️

Their response seemed perfectly measured to someone being needlessly pedantic.

Edit: And also Shuts down? Did you miss the 'down'? Was the title edited after the fact? What does the rest of that modlog say? The screenshot is cropped.

My perspective is you were being annoying, got downvoted/called out, feigned shock, got your comments removed, and now you're on a bitter smear campaign.

This is the weakest accusation of mod abuse I've seen. Good grief.

Whether you consider it whining, depends upon the tone you read it in.

I just read that comment and didn't feel annoyed enough to even give a downvote and the mod's reply seemed far too annoying.

The username on the other hand...
