It depends and is case-sensitive.
As I stated long time ago I don't want each decision be discussed in public,
especially no hundred questions why posts were deleted. Hard to handle I know.
There is certainly no solution everybody will be confident with.

CCC members, Steve and the other 2 moderators can act. E.g. if one moderator
goes out of control the other 2 can stop him. At least in the last period it was
agreed and I want to keep it.

He should mark his joke as one if expressions can be misunderstood.

Who is everyone? Must there be 10, 20 or more follow-ups jumping on the joke?
Deleting posts with dubious contents happens to avoid that one or more members
may feel offended.

A question of agreement between the moderators.
