Specifically a made up and false reason. None of what was banned in those screenshots were remotely homophobic. This particular mod is extremely ban happy and has resorted to using BS reasons to report those he doesn’t like.
I realize they’re allowed to ban people from their own communities, but shouldn’t their listed reasons at least be accurate?
But you have to remember here that there is no pre screening of mental and emotional acuity to be a moderate.
Nor are their behaviors held to account because most admins do the same.
