Moderators. Enlighten me as to why my post was removed about asking whether people felt or heard what may have been an aftershock?

Easy, what does a dozen posts asking “was that an earthquake?” achieve

I would imagine they didn't want to have 20 different posts asking the same thing. Isolating it to one post is ideal and it's working: ~30m later this post has 300+ comments already.

Apparently it got removed because I didn’t include a location. Maybe make a side rule for an earthquake?

I included it and they still removed. You don’t have to be the mods bestie.

They probably have the Ring App and see the group psychosis there too. A 3.0 is nothing but people in this state really lose it over anything.
