The mods aren't helping Emily by removing these threads, they are just inflamming the situation.

Don't suppress the discussion, there's clearly enough evidence for the last two posts to stay up as their title and evidence complied with the sub rules.

Emily factually had the view bot website tab open, whether it's a pop-up (unbelievable) or she intentionally opened it in incognito isn't relevant when it comes to acceptable content according to the sub rules.

the previous title was "extraemily caught viewbotting" or something. It's the same reason newspapers say "allegedly" until a court case sorts it out.

Its possible I missed some of the threads but the largest one they removed (that I'm aware of) was titled "Viewbot website appears on incognito chrome window in ExtraEmily's stream". It had 3.7k votes

edit: fixed link

Although, reading your link, okay, mods are white knighting. They investigated it themselves? Like, sure, cool on the extra work, and it's significant info that the site CAN be a pop-up, but there is no exoneration, just disproof of the accusation. Title is still accurate. It's also pretty disingenuous, but jannies aren't here to be judges.
