Moderators, what is your policy?

Look at all the moderator's posts over the last 6 months or so. Just about everyone has been the moderator using a copy/pasta script telling people the post is off topic and for them to email Cox. I would understand that, even expect it. if the post involved personal info but many times it's not that. Look at this post;
"Need help with internet" was all the OP said. Rather then doing basic troubleshooting here, you tell them to email Cox. Why? Given that OP didn't even say what was wrong, how could you know it's a issue outside of scope? This screams a lack of transparency with Cox. Also, it seems that Cox don't know how moderators work. They are like umpires. They keep everyone following the rules. They DON"T give their own input unless someone asks. There is another reason you are doing this and I think it has a lot to do with controlling PR. If your grandma came up to you asking to help with their internet, would you forward them to Cox, or talk to them like a actual humane being. Don't get mad being called a bot when that is exactly how you sound like.
