  • It’s a pretty tame thread all things considered. You wanna discuss this with them, they don’t, take the hint.

    They edited the comment, that’s not what it said originally, which is the only reason I reported and they added the stuff about not wanting to interact later to avoid a penalty. I would never report the latter. And why would someone who doesn’t want to interact keep being nasty until they realize they had nothing? All they had to say was berate me on what I think and not respecting MY wishes to not elaborate further, which is only two messages above that one. I was very clear on how fed up I was. Why is that not respected if I’m expected to respect someone else? Instaed they berated me further. But please, tell me where I was “horrifically rude and unnecessarily aggressive” when that person had been doing it to me first and out of nowhere. Nobody has bothered besides one person. You don’t look at that, you got your blinders on for when I had enough with the mod straight-up ignoring my request. Do you think that’s fair to me? Would YOU want to be treated that way by a mod? Not a trick question.

    Yes, we’ve noticed.

    Thank you for noticing! I wish you’d notice the way people have been treating me in that other thread and in this one. It’s pretty obvious that the only thing you care about is piling on even more. Go ahead, do it to your heart’s content as you do. You talk so much about human beings but I don’t see you empathizing. I also wish you’d notice that the reason for the ban had nothing to do with my participation but only my reaction at them being a twat without even bothering with it. If that had happened to you I bet you would also have been upset at being treated like dirt by mods on top of having to endure the pissy replies out of the blue. Notice that instead.

    You keep mentioning people attacking you over there and I didn’t see it.

    Yeah, figured you’d turn a blind eye to that too. Just selectively finding reasons to blame it all on me, barely glancing elsewhere. Like I said, you have yet to put yourself in my shoes and I know you won’t.

    Move. The. Fuck. On.

    I. Will. Not. And. I. Don’t. Have. To. You move the fuck on because all you got is being nasty too. Set the example of when someone replies and you’re told to bottle up after everything that happened.

    Just so we’re clear: I don’t wish to interact further. Respect that. Bottle it up, kid.




  • I wasn’t gonna bother but it’s bothering me that you got a few things wrong while basing your arguments on those and are being overly prescriptive.

    Seeing as you’re evidently not banned
    recipients can’t delete DMs, ever, only senders

    I don’t know where you got these ideas but I invite you to take a look at the modlog first. There’s my ban and all my comments deleted, so we can stop pretending that I did something that I did not. You’re the third/fourth person in this thread accusing me of random things.

    I don’t think you were banned for the comments, but for that DM

    I was gonna be banned regardless and they were extremely clear about that. So instead of quoting my DM, why didn’t you also quote the mod’s. I feel like that one was just as if not more incriminating. Did they delete it? Because that was a reply to something I received that I can’t find in my inbox anymore.

    But I want to know why all my comments were deleted and not the other people harassing me. Check the mod logs.

    If people abuse you here, do report it.

    Why, so they can do whatever besides enforcing the rules? Do you think this event leaves me with any trust in this system to rely on it again? Have you put yourself in my shoes?

    When I have an unpopular opinion, I take the loss and move on.

    Good for you, but I don’t have to. I’m fine with explaining why I think the things I do and take many Ls in the process. I’m just weird out that you are focusing on downvotes when I have not even mentioned them. But I am complaining about the disrespect, the rude comments, and the accusations that you’ve largely ignored. You don’t even mention them.

    Instead, a tumblr meme has somehow escalated into this shitting-beans level drama.

    Yeah, because the people in that thread jumped over to this thread. How is that on me, honestly? The topic of this thread is divorced from the comments. The only drama here is from the instigators. I invite you to read the entire thread if you haven’t.

    Like, I don’t even know why you’re focusing on the thread itself if you think it’s “beanshit”. I’m on board with that. The topic here is the misconduct of the mod that you and everyone else have largely ignored as well.

    Instead of moving on, this got mods involved?

    Yes, because of the outright insults and people getting nasty on that other thread. Again, how is their behavior on me when they come out of the blue swinging because they disagree? I’m not responsible for their comments, especially when I was nothing but civil and sincere. How come I don’t get credit for that?

    You mention you didn’t care about the ban, but here we are

    I can not care about the ban and at the same time care about misconduct. Those two ideas are mutually exclusive. I don’t know why you’re conflating them to drive some point.

    you’re still not having fun discussing

    Again, I don’t know where you got that. I’m a fairly argumentative person by nature, as you can see. I’m having a blast.

    Forget about this for a second. Go do something fun.

    Again, I don’t know where you got that. I just got back from a board game night with friends. There were 12 of us in a tiny apartment. You don’t need to paint me in a certain light and on top of that be this dismissive.

    All this said, “as a fellow human being” the very least you can do for another human being is to stop assuming things about them and focus on the things that matter. You can give me the benefit of the doubt and look at the sources like the modlog. That is, if you really mean what you say.







  • 3 or 4 out of a possible 10 in intensity

    Which is weird because the person I reported was at about a 7 and I’m the one who got clapped. They even edited their comment after to tone it down but I got the full brunt of of it without consequences.

    ask yourself if something you posted could make someone else upset

    I always do. But in this particular thread, I think the main culprit was a clash of spiritual/fundamental views of the world that seemed to ruffle feathers since I got a fair share of feisty replies right from the start that weren’t necessarily responding to my tone until much later. My demeanor alone doesn’t explain why I was suddenly the Big Bad Wolf in the thread. It’s not the first time I get clowned on for expressing a different pov, but that’s fine.



  • Defending my ideas is something I enjoy doing and it’s a way I like to spend some of my downtime and I’m not alone in this. And I like to do this respectfully. If you think it’s a waste of time, that’s fine, but I don’t need to hear about it.

    But I want to know why you choose to scold me as if I’m doing something wrong for participating in a forum like it’s meant to instead of the people being disrespectful and breaking the rules who are also here in this thread.
