LET MY PEOPLE GO

You’re just stirring up **** because your mate got banned.

I missed this gem. Yeah, rafiki and I go way back. Rolleyes.

It's ironic that your post is a lie while mine wasn't, yet I'm labeled the liar by the pitchforks.

And of course no issues here with either you or Trolly, because of course.

Ironically it’s you trying to rile up the mob by making allusions to private messages and then not wanting to post the contents of the messages.


Let it go, move on. Either rafiki comes back, or he doesn't. Whatever.

Um, I don't care about the mob. Especially ones who write "let’s be real, it is utterly scummy to talk about PM’s in an ominous way and then not leak them."

LOL at "ominous" (is doom coming for some reason????) and LOL at me leaking a PM. Why? So "Checkraisdraw" can be satisfied. That's rich.

Fine with me. But I can do without being called a liar.


I mean, Rafiki threatened over PM that he had already “taken steps” in the event that I banned him. “ You just have to say sorry and life goes on.”

I don’t negotiate with terrorists, so I guess we’ll have to wait and see what he meant by all his cryptic overtures.

I’m not going to be subjugated by some random angry man on the internet.

Another one of those super fragile individuals who can dish it but get extremely triggered when someone else criticizes them. saaaaaaad

Hahaha, I bet that sent him into meltdown. No wonder he wanted a perma.


by Crossnerd m

Lol what on earth

What on Earth what? It’s unsurprising. He PM’ed me expressing frustration that you were deleting his posts. He PM’ed me because he noted that my posts were being deleted as well.

So you bait him with a troll post about multi-accounting, then ban him and then call him a terrorist.

You are abjectly terrible at moderating a discussion forum.


by Crossnerd m

I’d like to just briefly acknowledge these two posts. I think in retrospect the above is correct, and I wish I hadn’t done it. Sorry, guys…

From rafiki (part of his PM):

"Yesterday in the moderation thread, she accused me in front of everyone (out of the blue) of using a second account. She thought I was the BLUE dude in the Israel thread.

Naturally I laughed and asked for the evidence, because lord knows that isn't me. Been on here since 2006, not resorting to a second account now."

Natediggity now speaking....you think "in retrospect the above is correct and wish you hadn't done it?" CN that's absurd. I mean, really really bad. And if you IP checked the BLUE dude against rafiki that's kinda nuts.

I won't spill the rest of the PM because it will turn into a (literal) he said she said. But mods picking fights and then banning is something else.


by natediggity m

It was a PM. I wouldn't share it without his permission.

I'd imagine the truth lies somewhere in between his and your stories.

So you have his permission to share it now or your principles changed within the last 12 hours


The funny thing is I wasn’t joking that he was multiaccounting; I was joking that he was account sharing his own account. That was the joke lol.

I never checked two accounts against each other. In fact, those two IP checks were made days apart and for completely different reasons.

I have no idea how he made the leap that he did.

And yes, of course I am deleting abusive posts.

Now we're talking. The rest of this discussion seems really silly.


And also of course if Rafiki had reached out to me in any sort of reasonable way, then we would have had a rational discussion about it.

For example, Rickroll once sent me furious PMs after a moderation decision I made, and he was listened to, addressed respectfully, and somehow wound up with a new Undertitle from it all.

What’s not going to happen is for someone to PM with threats and aggression. That I will not respond to, and absolutely nobody made Rafiki behave the way he did in private.

Trolly post accusing me of being a liar is still up. One thing I learned from you modding the IP thread is that people can't be called liars. Just an FYI.

Oh, hilarious


And just to be clear, I would not tolerate being spoken to the way Rafiki spoke to me by anyone in any capacity, especially as a grown woman.


Anyway, I’ve explained as much as I’m going to about this. Hopefully we can revisit it in the future with better results.


by natediggity m

Oh, hilarious

For someone who is apparently letting this go, you're doing a lot of shitposting and not much at all shutting the **** up.

tbh i got a 1 month ban, and a 15 days ban, without breaking any forum rule so i kinda disagree with the bold.Latest ban was because i lacked empathy toward a group of people and i dared to say i couldn't care if they died because of their actions, which is something which is an incredibly normal political position by many people and that doesn't break any rule at all.It's not

It's impossible to speak your mind in this day and age. People are becoming more and more emotionally fragile. Society is becoming more fake in order to coddle the weak. I got a 3 day ban for saying something that is 100% correct. Somehow it was deemed "harmful". Harmful to who? Are people really this easily offended? Do people really contact the MOD's because they got their feelings hurt? I couldn't imagine a grown man needing to be protected by the MOD's.
