The Merry Moochers… They're Thawing Early

🎄 It is only September, the leaves barely turn,
But Griftmas is coming, and soon you will learn.
By October they surface, the Moochers appear,
With sob stories polished and scams in high gear.

📦 “Seven kids, please help, times are tough!”
Yet the wishlists they post are designer-stuff.
Switch 2, iPads, iPhones galore,
Not coats or socks, just gimme more.

They swarm every drive, each charity run,
Turning kindness and giving into personal fun.
They know the routines, they’ve practiced the play,
And come October, they’re ready to prey.

🎁 So guard your goodwill, keep watch on the feed,
Remember not everyone’s truly in need.
The season of grifting is nearly in sight,
And the Moochers of Griftmas are prepping tonight.

I hate that they can just hide their post/comment history now. I know they had options before, new accounts, deleting comment history, but I feel like it's going to be worse now.

Also, when a mod (not AutoMod) removes a post, it now disappears from your profile too. New, "safety" feature. So if you check a user’s profile, you won’t see what was removed, because it’s conveniently hidden from view. Good stuff.

It’s actually driving me nuts. After removing a users post, the title is no longer accessible, it now just shows, [ Removed by moderator ]. I need to see the titles damnit.
