Great investigative work Head Office! I do have some questions that either the HO or Er can answer though:
1) Who deleted YoloSwag420's post? (Er knows this if he erased their mod log)
2) Why was YoloSwag420's post deleted?
3) Who's moderator logs were deleted? Why were they deleted?
4) Is there any acceptable reason for moderator logs to ever be deleted?
5) Other than YoloSwag420's missing "Same IP" post, have any other posts been found to have been deleted and then covered up through deletion of moderator logs?
Like others have mentioned, I find the punishment to be extremely light. Er tampered with an on-going investigation. That is a fact. If he didn't delete the YoloSwag420 post, he knows who did, and assisted in covering up their deletion. At the very least he is a witting accomplice to whatever is going on. For all we know that now deleted post contained an IP address or other evidence that would have linked a current user to YoloSwag420. However, now only Er and whoever deleted the post know this information. I appreciate all that the HO has done, I know this wasnt an easy investigation or an easy decision. Thank you. However, I implore you to keep going there are definitely more questions that need to be answered.
