God there are so many idiots in that thread. KennyC, Thomas Eshuis, Theropod, Metatron, Skinny Puppy... the list goes on.

Hi rEv

Thanks for the kind mention... I feel honoured.

Hey, I have an idea, why don’t you come and join us in that most interesting discussion and you could help to get us back onto the right track?

Oh wait!

[pErvinalia]

When I find the motivation to fire up another sock, I might just do that...

Poor Mike. Why is it that almost everyone understands them just fine, but you have such a hard time of it?

Everybody does understand me just fine, what are you talking about? You're the one not making sense.

Whilst you're here though, let's try to hash this out like adults. The mods seem to have a problem with me - I currently don't know why. You explain to me what I've done which is so horrible that the mods don't reply to my PMs asking for clarifications, all my reports get closed almost immediately without action, and my feedback threads just get locked without being answered.

What have I done which is so bad that any pretense of professionalism is just thrown out of the door by the mods?

Here are your previous 10 threads. I think it’s a fair sample.

1st: You were suspended for an FUA violation.
2nd: It’s still open
3rd: Is still waiting to be reviewed
4th: Received quite a lengthy answer to your query
5th: Received a really lengthy answer to your query
6th: Received an answer to your query
7th: Was answered (albeit it only required a short answer)
8th: Received an answer to your query
9th: Received an answer to your query
10th: Received an answer to your query

and my feedback threads just get locked without being answered.

They do, do they?

Have a look at the dates of the ones still open, they aren't being "reviewed". And as for "answered my query", read my question and then read the answer given, they don't answer things. It's like Beatsong's "Mr Samsa: Pineapple?" thread where he asks how my comments deserved an advisory and the mods replied by saying that my comments were against the rules and then reminded members how the suspension system works.

Clutching at straws here, Skinny, as you always do when you're out of your depth. Shit sorry, "out of your depth" is a personal attack - suspend me mods.

Well I take no offense at all.

You and I rarely agree on anything, but that’s okay.

How ‘bout we amend your statement to this:

and my feedback threads get locked and answered but not to my satisfaction

That would be accurate and fair... wouldn’t you agree?

[piscator]

lookatmelookatme! mewmewmew

Shut the fuck up, and get the fuck out.

[tattuchu]

Here's how the suspension system works:

Good.

Now, bye.

[Skinny Puppy]

[piscator]

don't make me get drastic on your ass...

[Skinny Puppy]

don't make me get drastic on your ass...

Be careful what you wish for.

[piscator]

Be sure to shut the fuck up before you go fetch up someplace else.

No, because "answered" means to answer a question. If you like, we'll amend it to: "and my feedback threads get locked and even though they are responded to, the response has nothing to do with the question asked".

It's dishonest to make it sound like I'm demanding a particular answer or that what I'm looking for is unreasonable to expect. I just want an answer at this point, I don't care if it's "satisfactory" or not, just something relevant to what I ask would be a godsend. For example, how many threads now have I (and multiple other people) started asking how the mods are interpreting the "inflammatory" rule and why is "intention" included in the rule when they've explicitly said that they don't take intention into account, and had no answer? Countless. If you disagree, dig through the threads and see if you can find them describing how they interpret the inflammatory rule.

Seriously, just go through some of the feedback threads (of myself or anyone else), look at what the question was and what the official response is and most of the time you'll find they give vague politiciany sounding non-answers to the questions. Don't you remember the big issue with Fallible's feedback threads a while ago where she asked if the advisory that explicitly stated she hadn't broken the rules was added to her usernotes and it took 4 feedback threads for them to not answer the question - and they still haven't, as far as I know.

Even people like Beatsong is starting to question the justification that the mods use and he always given the mods the benefit of the doubt and defended them when he thought they were in the right. Now that he's questioned them, you get assholes like Metatron following him around the forum insulting him.

Since we're focusing on the feedback thread issue, how do you feel about the mods only responding to my PMs asking for clarification on issues with template responses that don't answer the question or closing my reports immediately without bothering to check them out?

Bah, serves me right for chopping and changing my posts without reading it over at the end. Thanks for telling me after the time to edit it has elapsed...
