Ender, enough with the assumptions, please.
I admit that it wasn’t my first thought. If it can get moved then I’d like to request it get moved to the appropriate section.
Wouldn’t it just be better to report all these posts you’re concerned about?
And yes, I let myself get wrongly caught up in it instead of reporting it.
I have sent Jay and Silverwook a personal message about the thread to see if they would come and help clear up some of the confusion. THAT is all I wanted besides taking the discussion out of inappropriate threads so that they didn’t get cluttered up with this.
I do think that Fo had intentions of clearing up some confusion on the rules but it did kind of turn into “lets pick on warb”. No problem for me considering that I do think Jetrell has proven he is obviously guilty of back seat modding but reporting his posts would probably be a smarter way of going around it.
You would be correct. I only wanted to clear up the confusion. The posts of warblers I chose were because of his “warning” post and then his open frustration posts about the mods not responding to his open complaints. Nothing more. It’s the comments of others in-between that turned the intention of this thread in to something it isn’t.
This forum is not a rose garden of splendid angelic beings of light, LOL.
Thank you for some sensible posting.
😃
How is telling someone to knock off certain behavior the same thing as baiting them to engage in such behavior?
Look, I get it, you think it’s harmless fun. Using the name of two members and the words “warning” and “report you” in the same sentence doesn’t really speak “hey silly guys, could you just not do that anymore.”.
No, I think Alderaan is annoying and Warbler interpreted his posts as conspiratorial in nature, and generalfrievious was genuinely violating the thread rules, and since he does it every time he enters the politics thread, Warb warned him instead of immediately reporting him. I don’t think it’s fun at all. I reported generalfrievious and didn’t even warn him.
I think you’re a bit of a paranoid individual yourself, if you want me to be honest. Warbler is not a bully, and is often the victim of bullying. I cannot understand your perception of the world, my friend. You miss the obvious and yet read maliciousness in the benign.
This forum is not a rose garden of splendid angelic beings of light, LOL. This kind of stuff has gone on for like ever and warbler is not the only one to “insinuate” things through verbiage without actually saying it.
…and then…
I am not paranoid although you are entitled to your own opinion.
In the inappropriately overused words of Jetrell Fo, “LOL.”
Heckling aside, LOL has been designated as “fake news” recently.
Alright, I’m sorry. That’s honestly how I read the situation, but I’ll bow out of this thread now. I’m sure Jay does not want us fighting again.
I don’t want to fight with you either. I even complimented you in the “say something nice thread” and I meant it. I don’t want that trouble anymore.
Alright, so you’re mad at the mods for ignoring you so you’ll post it here instead. Like I said, I can’t believe this thread will remain open much longer.
STOP TWISTING MY FUCKING WORDS.
😦
And I’m curious how I’m wrong here:
Wouldn’t it just be better to report all these posts you’re concerned about?
This thread is not about whether you are right or wrong.
I know what the thread is about. That doesn’t answer the question of why you won’t just report the Warbler posts that you think break the rules.
I believe it’s fairly safe for me to say that simple reports like this I might make will go unheard. Just like you wouldn’t take anything I said serious even if it was actually serious.

He is no more a victim than me, you, Frink, the Mod’s, and anyone else here. I am not paranoid although you are entitled to your own opinion.
I am merely trying to understand, why warbler complained about the mods not doing as he asked publicly, instead of just reporting things quietly. Why does it need to be a public show? If others have been told to knock it off for less is warbler immune because he warned people openly? Since no-one has done anything about warblers public complaints does that mean the two people he mentioned didn’t do anything wrong?
And I’m curious how I’m wrong here:

This thread is not about whether you are right or wrong. People told warbler the same and he kept up for a bit until it got mentioned again.
So…this is just a thread to attack Warbler? Wouldn’t it just be better to report all these posts you’re concerned about?
I assume this thread will be locked shortly.
It is NOT a thread to attack warbler, lol. His comments in 2 different threads started the discussion. It is a thread to keep such discussions out of other threads. Had you read the title and the opening instead of just throwing this out there we’d be good.
I’m basing my assumption on posts 2, 5, and 7.
You know what they say about assuming? It is NOT a thread to attack anyone so please don’t start that rumor to start trouble.
Thank you.
I really don’t wanna get involved in this, but I just gotta say:
Telling someone to “Knock it off” is in no way baiting them to continue that behavior. It’s literally the exact opposite.
Stop signs don’t encourage people to drive past as fast as they can.
This is why I’d like to know how the rules interpret this since it seems a gray area but happens. Why is that wrong?

Also this …
We were told not to call anyone trolls anymore (especially without actual proof) and that new users suspected of being one should be reported immediately.
Then there is this …
All republicans are clinical sociopaths. They do not deserve any fucking sympathy. We are in the worst period in human history and it’s all their fault.
Mods, how long are you going to let this crap continue?
… and this.
I’m glad the AHCA failed miserably; I still think the Republican party are just a bunch of subhuman scum that doesn’t deserve to live, but then that’s just my frustration blowing off steam.
I don’t think you can excuse calling for genocide by saying you’re “just blowing off steam.”
Republicans hate every single human being that isn’t white, male, straight, christian, and/or unborn. They have done everything in their power to shove their delusional vision of America down our throats, even when 90% of the country opposes their policies. They believe the wealthiest of the wealthy should be protected from taxation at any cost, even if 24 MILLION PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE to achieve that goal. They are infinitely worse than every single evil political party that has ever existed in the last 100 years. They are beyond dangerous, and they are headed by one of the most evil men in history, Donald Trump.

Ridiculous doom saying.
Understatement of the eon.
Which I was under the impression was against the rules in this thread, but mods don’t seem to be doing anything.
I’m concerned that it’s baiting people which is not good. If others can get told to knock it off for less there is no reason warbler or anyone else would be immune.
Or am I wrong?

A reminder to generalfrevious and Alderaan:
- No crazy conspiracy theories (aliens killed JFK, Elvis did 911, Moon Landing was faked, 911 was an inside job)
- No ridiculous doom saying (like all non-Trump supporters will be rounded up and executed)
The next time I see either of you violate those rules, I will report you.
The above post by warbler is what kind of got this ball rolling. Could it be read as back-seat modding? Could it be interpreted as hostile and provoking? It seems that we have a number of folks that tend to use verbiage in an attempt to mask their intentions and evade the rules related to such behavior. Though I’m not surprised it happens I don’t think this behavior should be ignored. It’s not that hard to just report what you see and be done.
JEDIT:
I’d like to add that this thread should be a “report free” one. Everyone should get a free pass in here as long as they keep civil and discuss.
Not sure how. I’m not enforcing any rules. Just pointing out annoying behavior.
As was I.
This is a thread to keep rule interpretation and discussion out of the other threads. MODS and ADMIN are encouraged to drop in and help answer questions or clear up misconceptions about the rules that now moderate off-topic.
The rules of this thread are as follows …
No harassment/badgering of fellow members.
No taking discussions from here to other threads.
I’d like to see this be a helpful thread and not a shitty one.
Double standard much ender?
😉
You apparently did not read my post very well. You “warned” two specific members here on the board that you’d report them if they broke the rules. You didn’t even answer that question you just made it about you.
😦
I’m not doing this in this here anymore. It belongs in a different thread.

I’m asking this question out of curiosity only.
How is your impression of the rules more accurate than someone else’s? Over the last few days you’ve been “warning” specific people outright about the rules, claiming that you weren’t violating any rules, and here you’re now complaining mods aren’t enforcing said rules at a pace that satisfies you.
What gives with you and the rules, all of a sudden, against 2 people in particular?
😦
JEDIT: And before Frink drops his usual “RIC” response, I realize there is more than one question.
😃 (notice the smile here.)
He later claimed he was joking himself. It may or may not be true, either way I think you’re looking for friendship in Alderaan places.
Wookin pa nub … wait, did I just implicate Silverwook in something?
😉
I don’t want Obamacare repealed, I want it fixed.
How so?
People not losing their choice of doctors, none of this penalty crap, premiums and good care being affordable and available for everyone. If it is going to get repealed they NEED to take care of the premiums and penalty issues in the first phase. Prescription prices also need to be brought back to the people so folks can afford to take care of themselves instead of dying alone because they can’t get the medication that helps them survive.
