please review what you have just said ,
its the same thing you are putting on opposite sides in your statement.
obviously something offensive always sparks fights,
( at-least 99% of the time)
a post being offensive
or a post sparking fights is the same thing indeed.
i dont challenge the rule.
but i do challenge its abuse. A MOD should follow the LOGIC and REASON behind this rule , which you have just admitted your self ,is that , it sparks fights.
so if a post is not sparking fights.
or has no potential to turn into a HEAT debate.
it should not be deleted.
this is the reason this rule exists , ( according to you) and thus this is the reason which should be taken into consideration before taking an action.
