Whatever happened to the mod who wanted to delete /r/IAmA?

They needed to clarify that mocking someone isn't harassment

This is something that really, really irks me. People, many people were/are still saying "FPH was banned because of harassment, they were mocking fat people, that's harassment". NO! THAT IS NOT WHAT HARASSMENT MEANS! "But they even put a picture of the Imgur staff, that's personal information that can led to a witch hunt that can harm them, they could have been potentially harassed." NO, FUCKING NO! First of all, those shots can be extremely easy to find by doing a stupidly basic two-term google search. They are on a public website to be displayed publicly. Secondly, I've been though various archive.is links taken right before the sub was nuked and I never saw anything on the front page nor the infamous last mod post that explicitly told the users "go harass these people".

"But some of them did it, or that's what I heard, but also some members got into fights with other redditors in the Keto subreddit, and they WERE harassed, there's proof of that!" Okay, why not ban those people? If the mods allowed and encouraged it, why not ban them as well? Why not punish individuals instead of a "punishing" a site? That doesn't even make sense. All those who harmed others can be out there, enjoying impunity. Instead, all the admins did was destroy their hideout. That doesn't solve the problem, if you ask me.

And now, the admins are doing nothing but banning "FPH clones". Go fucking figure! Many of those clones survived for like minutes. Did any member of those clones go on to a harassment movement in such little time? Seems very unlikely but let's say I buy it: evidence of that hasn't even been provided.

"We ban behaviors, not ideas", my ass.

Sorry for the off-topic rant. I've been busy since this exploded and hadn't have the time to post my stupid, "no-one cares" tl;dr opinion, but here it is.
