Free Mets 2024

Repeating this achieves nothing other than making you look childish, IMO. Not saying you shouldn't make your argument or whatever, just that signing off with this line is dumb.


I want Mets to know we care about him.

I’m just saying I don’t think a mod that makes those comments should be modding Mets’ posts. That’s all basically.

Free Mets 2024

It seems like only yesterday you were saying I shouldn’t mod that thread because you thought I was Jewish.


I don’t think any Jewish people SHOULD mod that thread unless a Palestinian person is also modding it


How do you feel about a tall woman modding the thread? Does that also disqualify me?


Is the thread tall women vs short women?

Asking for equal representation isn’t the same as disqualifying someone.

Ofc it’s impossible rn but that’s why I said SHOULD


by holmfries m

Right, to me that is the issue. You have people in the thread who have referred to Jews as Nazis, characterized them as people who use dogs to commit rape, baby killers and worse. I didn’t agree with or particularly care for Mets posts, but banning him clearly isn’t due to some sort of standard of behavior in that thread. The result of this sort of suppression is just that f

if you want a thread that celebrates everything going on in Gaza and bans all information about the criminal misdeeds then I am sure you can find plenty of places on the internet.

Jesus, you're a donkey. For the 10th time, she's not jewish. And judging by her last post, probably not tall either.

ya it proly seems unfair for a newcomer to just waltz into a place and start pulling the trigger on locals and acting like they own the place.

She is the typical new person on the job who over does it but is trying to do a good job. Hopefully she learns to significantly dial it back. Perhaps I will rejoin this forum when I no longer have to walk on egg shells.

Also, anybody who reports a post is a fragile little person.

Don't rush bro. Although it would be nice for you to show up in November so we can pelt you with rotten tomatoes after your boy gets sent packing.


The party of **** YOUR FEELINGS feeling it today.

I was calling out Donk for his lie about Mets being required to grovel, but great effort trying to follow a simple conversation. You'll get there next time.

To do that, there was no need for you to emphasize (twice, mistakenly ) that Mets could not put CN on ignore when she arrived with insults.

And THIS is one of the examples of people being allowed to insult others based on lies. Any mod following the conversation can surely see what Trolly has done here. He likely just made a comprehension mistake the first time, but instead of admitting it, or even simply ignoring it, he then
doubles down in attack mode, then finally he makes some post like this implying that the mistake never happened, and insulting others for their lack of understanding.

Why is this kind of thing allowed? ? Trolly makes FAR more personal attacks than does Mets, while hardly ever contributing actual content.

Could any mod actually answer my question for once? Why is this exact kind of post allowed?


by Crossnerd m

We’ve been through this already several times. Others are being punished. Most of them reform their behavior and you hear nothing more of it. Others push back and are then subject to escalating moderation. Still others push back both privately and publicly AND personally attack the moderators. It’s a fairly trivial task for anyone to deduce which posters fall into w

No, I'm sorry, friend, but this is delusional.
You have banned Mets indefinitely, which has never been done for worse posters like Trolly and Victor. Anyone can see this, the charitable way to look at it is that something is blinding you to that fact. The other possibility is that you are just lying.


by Victor m

I mean, its not like he goes around calling other people pedophiles repeatedly

Or baby killers.


by Crossnerd m

When I took over the moderation of the I/P thread, I took it upon myself to personally reach out to Mets to address any unresolved issues. These were my messages (I will not post his replies).Furthermore, the first person to receive a timeout and the first person to receive a ban in the I/P thread under my moderation were posters who insulted Mets. If anything, I have treated M

Huh, someone who personally knows (and dislikes) a poster has now outed his real name without consent. Is doxing by mods allowed here?

What are you accomplishing with this?


He said "any mod". I accomplished answering, per his request to "any mod".

I assume he meant any mod of this subforum who has authority here. That isn’t you. But thanks for your help.

We all know what happens when someone assumes.

And Thanks for selectively replying to my posts
