TL:DR - Voat has moderator logs for every subverse, many months ago I placed links to these on the sidebars of all the subverses I moderate because I support moderation transparency (Edit: I've removed my own links as Voat now includes these links on the sidebars of all subverses). I will remove all types of spam content but I will not remove peoples views or opinions. If you see something I've removed you don't agree with then let me know, feedback is welcome. I'm here to clean up, I'm not here set a narrative.
I really hate this kind of pointless meta drama but I feel like I have to respond to the following with facts.

BashCo (Moderator of /r/Bitcoin) was removed for being inactive (Done within the rules of Voat) - https://voat.co/v/subverserequest/comments/597334 - Never mind that BashCo along with other reddit /r/Bitcoin moderators have been responsible for massive amounts of censorship, lies and FUD. None of them can be trusted to moderate impartially on Voat. Reddit moderators have already tried to destroy other subverses, I won't let that happen to /v/bitcoin.

AvatarX was removed for abusing moderator tools making it impossible for me to trust them moving forward, details below.
AvatarX removed two of my comments without warning.

You can see them in the mod log - https://voat.co/v/bitcoin/modlog/deletedcomments
Days later I discovered AvatarX had been continually abusing the moderator distinguish button to make his own personal posts (Comments and submissions) more visible. Only posts which involve moderation should be distinguished.
When I asked AvatarX to stop abusing the moderator distinguish button they essentially said no - https://voat.co/v/bitcoin/comments/853814/4247297/4248092#4248092
AvatarX has always been free to contribute to Voat about any topic but has barely done anything with only 4 links, 4 discussions and 46 comments compared to my currently 2149 links, 30 discussions and 698 comments (348 submissions to bitcoin).
AvatarX has continually claimed to have "brought over a few hundreds new users" and "it only started getting active again because of me bringing people over." but I've seen little to no evidence of this.

1.- You pushing me out cowardly is fact. Meaning without messaging me first you were thinking of doing it. Which is as close as telling it to my face given the medium. Even if it that don't takes away that being a weak move I never would have done once. Much less twice like you.
2.- You don't liking that a mod distinguishes his own comments mostly on his own posts is your butthurt problem. It a matter of style and gasp flair. The fact you think something is wrong with a default function that is a personal choice on how to use it is just hilarious.
3.- You pushing me out just as I started posting support for Bitcoin Core is a fact. A crazy one since I was mild about it and you happen to be blatant on your support of Bitcoin Classic.
4.- I erased comments on a post of mine that became cluttered and later erase the actual post. My post.
5.- I didn't contributed more because when started doing it you started throwing hissy fits. And because you were leading it. Oh how rude of me.
6.- When I came over here the subverse was at 4500 members and it was mostly you talking to yourself. From then I promoted it on my accounts. I linked it from TGPBC. Posted about it in TFBBG. And it even got featured along myself in a Bitcoinist article. But you keep playing blind bruh.
Anyway, that is that.
