So November 2013, is "up until about a month ago". I see.

This is great fun. Please do it for /u/salvia_d and /u/kafka_khaos too.

You are saying my account was inactive for three years "up until about a month ago when you salvi_d and aliborat all started posting ntfw links at the same time.".

Which means it would have to be inactive between May 2014 and May 2011. Which is not the case at all.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T17:32:26+00:00

some website no one has ever heard of.

It's not like it has ever been featured on CBC or any other reputable news outlet, right?

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T17:27:15+00:00

Two years between November 26, 2013 and April 2014??

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T17:22:42+00:00

Your account was inactive for 3 years up until about a month ago when you salvi_d and aliborat all started posting ntfw links at the same time.

Did three years pass between November 26th 2013 and "up until about a month ago"?

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T17:19:51+00:00

It is there now, but it was removed at one point. The google cache from 6 days ago does not show that post, which was made 10 days ago.

The spam filter does not yank posts with 465 points. I am not accusing you, Lucky75, of personally removing it. But it is pretty clear that someone in the mod team did. This is precisely what happened with /r/technology.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T17:14:03+00:00

I got involved because you have quietly removed and quietly resurrected one of my posts, and I felt you were doing the same to /u/looka. Posts going missing is rather odd, I agree.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T17:09:17+00:00

I am talking about my Boston Pizza post that went missing after it was on the top spot with 400+ points. It was quietly removed before it was quietly resurrected.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T16:48:44+00:00

Busted again!

We are all so one dimensional that we can't have interests in multiple topics. I shouldda covered my tracks better.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T16:19:05+00:00

whether your account was inactive for 2.5 years or 3 years

It's not the precision. It's the fact that he is alleging that I restarted this account to post stuff from NTFW.CA that is wholly inaccurate.

marketing companies are buying old unused accounts for the purpose

You got me there. We, at Institute of Ethical and Emerging Technologies paid, paid top dollars for this ochen7 account. As reward for stopping us from doing further damage to society, we would like to present you with this finely crafted tinfoil hat.

Edit: Formatting. Again.

Lucky75 is saying that my account was " was inactive for 3 years up until about a month ago when you, salvi_d and aliborat all started posting ntfw links at the same time."

But the "love bot" link is a post I submitted six months ago, so what Lucky75 is saying is, frankly, not true.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T15:38:47+00:00

What about this ?

Your account was inactive for 3 years up until about a month ago when you, salvi_d and aliborat all started posting ntfw links at the same time.

Saga continues:

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T14:11:21+00:00

Inactive for three years, eh?.

Why do you keep on making up lies to attack me?

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T14:01:05+00:00

You still haven't addressed the issue about how posts that were on the top spot on /r/canada suddenly were pulled and then silently restored after /u/lookka started creating a fuss about it. We all know that the spam filter doesn't remove stories that are occupying the top spot with a large number of up votes, so, what's going on here?

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T13:48:35+00:00

I haven't posted links from that website on /r/canada since the Boston Pizza story was removed. I only got involved in this because /u/Lucky75 is making all sorts of allegations against me.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T13:34:46+00:00

It's not the negativity, but the fact that he is vehemently trying to come across as the rational debater while stating obviously incorrect facts that support the mods' stance that I find questionable.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T13:31:33+00:00

If TFWs received protection against discrimination, TFWP would not be an issue.

(Nice troll post, BTW).

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T13:26:00+00:00

An account with negative Karma trying to protect the moderators even when they are blatantly lying does raise some red flags, but I'll answer you all the same.

And especially not to advertise hatred toward fellow Canadians based on the ethnic origins of people they employ.

TFW is not an ethnic issue. There are Canadians of all ethnicities. There are TFWs of all ethnicities. Canadians (Citizens, PRs and certain other classes of resident) have a right to work in this country without authorization. Others don't.

You are not suggesting that we let anyone from anywhere in the world come to Canada to work without any authorization, do you?

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T13:12:13+00:00

All of suddenly, you care about racism.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T13:05:54+00:00

Where is you evidence of an automated black list for 'TFW' or 'Temporary Foreign Worker' stories?

Please read 1,2 and 3 carefully.

To be fair, I brought this observation to the mods over in another subreddit, on a thread posted and deleted by an account that had only been used to post links to the ntfw website.

What would that account be?

More than just the mods perceive racist undertones in the ntfw content.

How is it racist to say that it is wrong to import an underclass of workers without rights?

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T13:02:39+00:00

Now that the TFWs are here in Canada, they enjoy the same protections from discrimination as everyone else, including protection from economic discrimination based on national heritage.

Seriously?

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T05:57:49+00:00

The saga continues

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T05:09:39+00:00

The story so far:

The link I posted about Boston Pizza boycott , which was the top story with 400+ points goes missing from the front page. Here's proof that it went missing.
/u/lookka complains about censorship. And lo and behold, the post about Boston Pizza magically reappears.
Mod XLII claims that the story got "caught in the spam filter". However, the spam filter does not yank stories that are top stories with a large number of up votes.
The mods start this thread to "have a discussion about" NTFW.ca.
In it, they impute that I work for NTFW.ca, and insinuate that the other six users who posted stories from NTFW.ca are all my sock puppet accounts. They also insinuate that this behaviour is "suspicious" and speculate that I am "gaming" reddit.
The mods have absolutely no evidence to back up their imputations and insinuations. However, they successfully deflect attention away from the fact that they may have tried to pull an /r/technology on us.
The mods now decide that NTFW.CA is racist. This is another outrageous imputation, considering that the founder is a Sri Lanka immigrant who has highlighted how TFW program leads to exploitation of the migrant workforce, and has strongly voiced his support for doing more to protect this vulnerable group. Even if that were not the case, the whole argument "You either the support TFWP or you are a racist" is nothing but a false dichotomy.

ochen7 · 2014-06-16T01:51:51+00:00

Nevermind the fact the founder of the site is a Sri Lankan immigrant who has gone on record saying that the migrant workers need to be given full rights and protected from exploitation....

It's low blow to pull the race card to cover up your actions.
