1. Thicker skin has nothing to do with it as I’ve long established that Lounge and Sewers are for that kind of low brow, unproductive, juvenile, shitposting NOT incel discussions or the ban appeals board or ban discussions thread.
Users know they can insult eachother or myself and the rest of the staff freely 24/7 if they want calling me, the rest of the mods or eachother the worst names you can think of and I nor the rest of the mod team will ever ban them for it.
You're being pedantic. If there's a serious thread that's bound to have emotionally charged responses, then having posters swear or cuss in outrage isn't defiling the sanctity of ID or whatever, it's par for the course. The insults aren't coming out of left field. The mods deleted a damning thread and post (why, again? remind us, please), and people rightly got pissed off. The modding response was disproportionate to the offence here.
2. Asking for more than two giant boards of the site for this sort of shitposting is not only what is truly “petty” as well reaching but its also simply being greedy and agenda driven as if you personally enjoy the idea of serious discussions being undermined or derailed or taken needlessly into the gutter in such ways?
Not only are you misunderstanding me, but now your accusing me of having an agenda of undermining ID? WTF, bro? I resent that. What I want is not for ID to degenerate into shitposting - quite the reverse, in fact, and you know that, so stop with the hyperbole. What I'm asking for here is to not go overboard with the reactionary modding.
I asked
@Komesarj89 to give me just a single discord screenshot of what he accused gymletethnicel of, but no dice. If anyone's being petty here, it's him for his exchange with gymletethnicel when he accused komersar of lying about him and had an outburst. What's next? Somebody else makes shit up about one of us because we got on their nerves, then we get the axe too? Anyone can see that my worry here is reasonable.
Two guys got banned for "misinformation." What was the misinformation? Was it about the deleted thread?
What’s truly disgraceful is your promotion of shitposting as being some be all end all type of speech that belongs absolutely everywhere else the sky should be falling.
This is borderline slander, brocel. I've never
promoted shitposting. I was the loudest motherfucker speaking out against postmaxxing (the lowest form of shitposting), in case you've forgotten.
We don’t need it here on ban discussions and there’s no abuse of power in this stance taking place either, as I’m not stooping to these shitposters level and calling them similar names here, whether they can or cannot respond, because again as I’ve just stated, that type of rhetoric has its time and place but serves no valid or honest purpose here in ban discussions.
Bro, what are you talking about? Did you lose the plot? We're not talking about ban discussions, we're talking about this thread:
....which is also now deleted.
Incredible.
