Ummm..... I think you may be an example of the "We" the OP was talking about. I've noticed that after multiple attempts from veterans and long standing members to help correct your claims of two-word domains being long-tails, that you continue to mislead new members in your articles by claiming that two-word domains are long-tails still. (And that's just 1 example)

I can only assume, at this point, that:

1. You refuse to learn from others (Not sure why)
2. You aren't reviewing and editing what your AI chat is outputting and just publishing what ever it says

A little helpful advice (Again):

• Long-Tails are 3 or more words or sequences
• ALWAYS fact-check and edit AI chat outputs before you publish them to avoid misinformation

AI makes a lot of mistakes. From personal experience using AI, it can take 1 to 2 hours just fact-checking, correcting, researching and editing AI output of a single article or analysis. It should ONLY be used as an assistant to research (Treated like an Intern that makes mistakes). That means you have to actually take the time to correct those mistakes before publishing what your intern/AI assistant claimed.

IMPORTANT: If you don't do the above, your credibility takes a big hit as people identify all the errors and misinformation. Adding just a bit of human touch with your editorial efforts can go a long way. Don't rush it and cut corners. Take the time to correct your intern/ai assistant.

I apologize if my comment feels like an attack, but I can assure you it's not. Many members, including myself have just exhausted a lot of efforts to try to help you over the last several months, but it appears that our efforts are being ignored.

With that in mind, the timing of your comment agreeing with the OP on this topic and a last ditch effort to help you, I figured I would give it one more shot to help.

I sincerely wish you the best and hope that you start taking seasoned members advice moving forward.

Remember, the best way to genuinely help newer members, is to provide accurate information without misleading them (Even if sometimes it seems harshly direct).

Hello,

Please provide references of a rule violation:

1. A link to a post that violated one of the rules we outlined above
2. A link to a thread that violated one of the rules we outlined above

The post you quoted does not have any links to rule violating posts in it for us to look at.

A rule reminder has been issued to the member for publishing instructionally formatted misinformation.

It's our hopes that they will do some more research prior to instructing others.

It should be noted that their post does not technically violate policy as it's written in their own opinion, so a 0 point rule reminder was used to help steer them in the right direction moving forward.

We hope that helps.

Is that a full blanket clearance? If not, could you outline the specific limitations?

Is that a full blanket clearance? If not, could you outline the specific limitations?

No, it's not. It really depends on the context. Each instance is investigated individually to determine if a rule was violated.

We can't go around infracting everyone for expressing their opinions, even if they were a bit off-course. I doubt you would want any of your personal opinions to result in an infraction.

I'm sure you can agree that tasking moderators with opinion accuracy enforcement is a bit extreme and a waste of time that could be dedicated to something more important, like spam and scam enforcement and investigation.

It would be difficult to outline every scenario, since each instance could have completely different context and intent

A few basic things to keep in mind would be:

• Does the post or thread violate the rules? - (Moderators can get involved in blatant rule violations)
• Is the member profiting off blatant intentional misinformation? - (Further investigating needed)
• Is the member simply expressing their opinion, even though adamant about it? - (Not a rule violation)
• Does the opinion encourage the breaking of a law or unethical business dealings? - (Further investigating needed)

The best thing to do is to report each potential rule violation so a moderator team can investigate and get more involved (When applicable). Unfortunately, there's no way to blanket all the different scenarios into one, single category.

We hope that information helps.
