You can even see from cgis example posts that if he was to post that 2nd thread today it would be full with the same console fans that always invade my threads and turn them into console vs pc arguments. Im also tired of you mods using a blind eye to it and then acting like its me thats doing it or some other pc fan. I still see that the user who used a bunch of personal attacks on me in this very thread still wasnt warned or banned that shows me alot about where you mods stand on this..... I can go into the past and pull out a bunch of my old PC threads too from before the users that seem to like following me around joined and you can see they never had any problems too just like cgis old threads. Its not my fault if some users here are looking to my avatar and then stright away using that as an excuse to derail my threads into console vs pc arguments maybe you mods should have a rule against that.. |
There is one thing I'll have to note on this and I have seen over the times where one person gets outright banned for obscene usage of swears and insults but petty and veiled jabs tend to get ignored, with me for an example I've noticed "balance" judgements were being made time and time again despite the differences in others interacting with me or someone else. It felt for a time that if I ever said something towards someone and they said something just as bad or something of a jab, then I;m to have dirt found on me to make said "balanced" judgement (basically when one cannot come to a consensus and judge the one person to be judged and instead tries to force a balance to let the other person off in the longrun).
I've also noticed that in another recent PC thread there were jabs all over the place, but I found out as soon as you claim you have a PC and take photos of it then you're perfectly alright and in the clear from any and all judgement, though int he end I am no doubt going to be told that this is not my place to say such things but I'll also point out that we still have no general place to talk openly about judgements and moderation as usual, we can only message individually to an email address like any other big name company and then hope everyone around the round table is summoned to listen to what is being asked/said.
Note that I am in no way afraid of speaking my mind on this issue but I do definitely strongly feel that not being allowed to talk anywhere about moderation issues or judgements effectively kills making the community a better and more healthier in the longrun, no matter what a mod might say, they know it to be true, outside of this site they are just as human and as normal as any other, they must accept criticism regardless, hiding behind a title does not grant you godlike diplomatic immunity to being criticized for making bad calls and this is something I believe all moderators should focus on. (I also talk to a mod on skype from time to time and I know there are definite issues to be worked among them that should be focused on and not ignored).
As a last note I really must point out that making a judgement based on ones avatar to a platform shouldn't be allowed and yet in your case it somehow is. I remember seeing someone get banned for such a remark a while back.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
