Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

if someone is banned from the community why does their post stay up or did they get banned for saying the n word and not the post?
Ok, so if they made good posts, but they did something bad and got banned.
Are we supposed to just un-person them? Pretend they didn't exist? What if they made actually useful posts?
Seems dumb to me.
A ban isn't "un-personing" someone, it's a temporary restriction on their engagement with one particular community, as a consequence for bad behavior. If that restriction doesn't actually happen though, it doesn't seem like a very effective consequence.
Either way, best to just follow the community rules, blend in, occasionally say what you need to, and never get too comfortable or used to any one community, or human comodity.
Wow you're telling me that a lazy, microsoft bootlicking, carnist is also a racist? I'm shocked.

Why are you calling OP lazy?
Why did you latch onto the insinuation that racism is involved at all?
Some other person speculates and then you accept it as fact?
Why are you employing zero critical thinking skills and assuming OP
is a Microsoft bootlicker? Have you been to c/linuxmemes ? Linux users make fun
of their community all the time. In addition, OP could be a BSD or MacOS user.
And Crossfitters and Vegans can make fun of themselves too.
