I would kill the rule that lets mods delete a post for being "off-topic" when half the mod team does not work with their hands and does not know what matters to people who do. I have seen good conversations about wage theft get nuked because somebody decided it belonged in r/labor instead, and then nobody posts it again because they are tired. The rules should be simple enough that a foreman can read them once and know where he stands — right now it is like a contract written by lawyers who get paid by the word. If a post is spam or hurting somebody, delete it. If it is just something the mod does not want to read, that is a different problem and it is yours, not the forum's. Keep the rules tight or do not bother.
