Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

That seems like a very narrow definition. Are you sure you're not just spouting your opinion?
Do you think definitions are vetted based on broadness?
Vetted by whom?
I just asked you that, pumpkin
No you didn't.
Can you not answer the question? I didnt think it was very hard. Did you not understand what you were asked?
No. You haven't explained who is doing the vetting you're asking about, which is critical to answering.
I asked you, pumpkin. Youre the one who answers. If I was answering my own questions, I wouldnt be talking to you.
Do you need a pad of paper? Maybe some crayons? This isnt normally a difficult question.
You're not making any sense.
I literally cannot dumb down my question any further for you. Its insanely simple.
It doesn't need to be simpler, it needs to make sense.
Lol fuckin everyone else got it just fine on the first pass.
Kinda sounds like you are hiding from the question bud
I'm not sure how you determined that but it doesn't make any difference to our communication. You're not making sense to me. If you want to communicate with me, I need to understand you.
I don't think you want to communicate.
I dont know how else to communicate with you beside plain english using simple sentences.
If you cant answer the question, just say that. Dont try and pretend your issue is the worlds fault.
That much is clear.
Interesting.
Its odd that you became so stumped by a single question multiple other people understood, after running such a barrage of questions yourself.
But if things children know confuse you, perhaps it makes sense you are so lost
LOL
Provide a definition if you think my very broad description with a single example out of many possible examples is inaccurate.
What do you mean?
You questioned whether I was just spouting an opinion, which would imply that it was inaccurate.
Feel free to provide a definition.
Would imply what was inaccurate?
Imagine if you contributed to the discussion rather than did a poor attempt at the Socratic Method...
