I’m aware of that (I’m a moderator of another subreddit), but every comment I have posted (or older comments that I have edited) on the sub since Jan 12 has been deleted instantly, so there is simply no other explanation. The last comment of mine that has not been deleted was https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/1hxmcct/comment/m6e9yuv/?context=3

A couple of great ideas here, DNA is a new theory, and I did see someone else mention the holograms, but I don’t think anyone has actually checked them out (added to my list of things to do this weekend) :)

The note sheet idea has already been explored somewhat (I’ve linked to this in another comment below) - no real promising results on that lead yet, but I don’t think the investigation has been exhausted and would definitely appreciate anyone else with some musical/audio talent taking a look :)

reveddit is partially broken - checking a user profile works, but using it to check a subreddit doesn’t. Checking a thread partially works, but may miss some deleted posts and attempting to restore deleted posts is only partially successful. unddit was working all last week, though right at the moment I’m not getting any results with it, but I assume that is probably just a temporary outage.

This is one of the lines of investigation that was sparked from the original post on Reddit. See this sub-thread and discussions on the Ghost Giraffe discord. CMDR Mookie Markova attempted to transcribe it into a music editor which sounded like this, but definitely read the reddit thread for more details.

I am on their discord, and it looks like someone else there picked it up after my original post on Reddit, though I guess I’ll tag them into the new thread. We’ve also got some investigations happening on the Ghost Giraffe discord.

Yeah, morse was my first thought, but the problem with that theory is that the dashes are all different lengths which isn’t the case for morse - it could be something else along the same lines though. I also thought of Braille, but AFAIK Braille doesn’t have any dashes.

Which would be fine, if they had cited a removal reason stating as much, which they didn’t.

So I don’t really want to whinge too much about the moderators who clearly lack the self reflection or humility to try to improve themselves, but anyone still using the Subreddit - if you haven’t got any replies lately you might want to run your account through reveddit and make sure you aren’t also shadow banned - looking at recent posts on unddit shows an alarming number of posts + comments getting deleted too quickly for it to log, which may indicate they hit a spam filter, or that moderators have shadow banned more people. I very much appreciate that lemmy.world appears to have a public mod log, meaning it is actually accountable.
