>>244380>>243778>>243772>>243759>>243756Because you’ve left such an impression on me, I’ll grace you with an even more in-depth answer.
Take a look at your own post,
>>243756. I don’t know if you can see how entitled and arrogant it is, but it
oozes with “mods haven’t already done something I want them to so they are bad.” I have tried to explain to you, many, many times that whatever posts were made, were made after 9 PM on a work night. I had to go to sleep within a couple hours of the posts being made, and it’s entirely possible that they were made
after I went to sleep. Then I work, and while I was at work, this post whining about “why haven’t the mods already banned him” was made. Do you not see how this is unreasonable? Furthermore, Scruffy
was awake during that time, probably until 2 AM, and I think that he
did see it. He is far harsher than me with regular posters, and he’s deleted posts he finds objectionable, so if he saw it and did nothing,
I trust his judgement. Contrast your post against
>>243748, which also wanted something done about vril anon, but didn’t include entitled whining about something not already having been done before he asked. Notice how there is no negative response.
So I made a response to the entitled post in a half-joking, half serious manner, explaining exactly why I had not already done the thing that you wanted me to do while I was sleeping and working, and were now pitching a fit about me not doing while I was asleep and at work. That’d be this post
>>243757. And what is the response? More entitlements. Something something about “I’ve been here since before the site existed” or whatever. Like how the actual fuck would that entitle you to have staff do the thing you want while they are asleep and at work? And further more, you know you can
report posts that violate rules? I have never seen a report by anyone one the rule violating posts. I grant that it’s possible that Scruffy or someone else dismissed them before I saw them, or I simply didn’t see the reports, but given that I stated many times there were no reports and I haven’t been corrected, it’s looking like you didn’t put forth even an iota of effort to alert staff to what you were upset about. You bitching about us not doing anything is the same as bitching about the police not intervening in a domestic fight when you didn’t bother to call the police or file a report. No shit you’re not getting the help you never asked for.
You call your entitled whining “grilling.” Really? When you or any other person bitch about moderator action or inaction in a way that is unreasonable, we can either ignore it, leave a single post that tries to be calm and professional, or we can explain in excruciating detail what a petulant child the poster is and why what they are demanding is unreasonable and keep responding until they realize that I have more energy than they. I’ve tried ignoring the whining posters and giving a single, detached, professional response, but that really hasn’t worked. So I’m going to do something different. I’m going to grill
you. I’m going to let
you explain your position, draw it out, and left you have the joy of discovering that you were indeed being unreasonable in sticking to that position, and let you defend it, if you feel you need to for your pride. I have explained myself here repeatedly. I know that my explanations will never, ever, under any circumstances be sufficient for you, and I understand that the reason for that isn’t really because you think you were right, but because you think that if you admit error you’ll look like an idiot. So I’ll let you keep talking, and I’ll let other people see you make an idiot of yourself, in the hopes that you’ll learn a lesson from all of this, and not do it again.
