That may be true, but you have some semblance of a chance to put out an engine fire with a fire extinguisher. Aint nothing stopping a battery fire and the whole vehicle will be fully involved in like 20 seconds.

You get in a serious wreck in an EV where the battery is compromised and you are trapped, you are just 100% fucked.

Edit: EV simps out hard today. Battery fires are very aggressive and fire departments have been struggling to extinguish them with full equipment. You can't deny that there is an inherent danger to EV battery fires. You can simp all you want for them, but it's a challenge that will need to be overcome with more and more EVs on the road.

I brought it up after we had that conversation and there wasn't much feedback on actually moving forward with it. I can't really change the rules on my own, so they stayed the same.

It was something along the lines of "Seth is a dope."

Wasn't really conducive to any conversation and was removed. I wasn't the one to remove it, but I think the removal itself is fine.

That response is one of the default responses you can choose in the app. They are kind of a pain in the ass to change so I usually just don't bother using them, and they aren't even accessible (to my knowledge) in the browser version if you use RES like I do.

To put it in context, probably about 90-95% of the comments we remove are for breaking Rule 2. Tends to most commonly be on political posts because people can't behave.

The remainder is mostly Rule 1 and Rule 4 removals. The others are pretty rare.
