Does the, or can the, automated moderation tools privately message the user and let them know why their post was moderated? Even if it just said the post was removed because it didn't meet the rules, here's a link please read??



It can, and I've set it up to do that with some of the obvious stuff. Also working on reorganizing things to make it easier for AutoModerator to detect those things.

But even then it's an impersonal deletion with a "copypasta message", which is what the parent comment was complaining is unacceptable.
