Is FACT CHECKING something new being done on this site or has it always been done?

Just wondering!

That fact checking was in regards to saying something that an admin said and not having proof to back it up.

Basically don’t go around saying the admin said “xyz” without having proof or it will be fact checked.

@iamonfire696 And another who was fact checked for a poll with a question asking for opinions?

@iamonfire696 I'm not mentioning names, but again...got a notice in my notifications that the user had gotten fact checked and more... and later...poof! it disappeared along with things being changed.... things really stink on this site... more than usual.

@SW-User I saw a poll about fact checking but it’s still up.

I got 3 notifications yesterday about fact checking.

@iamonfire696 If someone were truly seen as posting things seen as illegal a crime in society, why would the admins still have any user with that on their site? This is on the newest one today. The polls one was a week or two ago.

@iamonfire696 The poll was about the new users on this site and using up all of our blocks and such and needing VIP. It was too hilarious how fast it was attacked as spreading false information. The poll you saw was nothing really that admins would mind since it didn't reference their new users, the feed or something as touchy. Ahahahahaha!!!

@SW-User okay well what I was referring to was a user who said Admin said something to him about pedophiles and when they fact checked it there was no record of admin saying it.

I didn’t know anything about a poll about the new users.

@iamonfire696 I know what you are referring to. I have nothing against you or you voicing your opinion.
I'm just not sure things were really exactly as put forward. I missed the whole thing.
As for admin.... I do know some things admin did on that poll one were deleted and redone. I can't prove it, but I saw the changes.
This is not my idea of a site I'd like to stay on.
Those notices showing up in my notifications makes no sense except admin want's to shame people they are not happy with.

@SW-User I understand where you are coming from.
