You apparently glossed over reasoning that was included in that post---> "because I waited 22 days for you to post #2 in 'this one time,'
Although I did skim (what do you expect if you reply to who knows how many threads in long formats on a single post?), I did notice your complaint. I deemed your nr 2 post as not making sense, so I did not approve it. I did not disapprove it either, I thought who knows maybe I will suddenly have an epiphany, but that did not happen. Your very important nr 2 post is what?
I would not be upset if this never showed up. It made no sense whatsoever. I am not sure why this is so important to you, be glad someone else even had a look at it and decided to approve it - it sure wasnt me
. It brought nothing to a thread that had nothing in it anyway (imo).
Stop whining.
.
I'm not looking all over the place for things of mine that don't even show up."
maybe you should. You might actually get a hint of why some things are approved and others not. It could help you see what we find belongs here and what does not.
.
Find one person on the forum besides yourself that considers 22 days a reasonable time frame for, from when I post a reply to the actual appearance on that thread.
I just answered that.
Moreover (even if it were to happen that no one had gone over your post in 3 weeks), I am under no obligation to drop everything when you decide to post. You can wait... You got yourself into this pickle and you could have already gotten yourself out of it (I never saw this approval post thingy as something that would last this long). The fact that it does also shows that you are not willing to cooperate with us.
Either way, the waiting period is just part of the mod queue aspect of posting and it is your own fault that you are in this situation in the first place.
Paying attention to the fuller context, you would have garnered that neither Le_Regard or Pixie Dust earnestly objected to ANY material in my Seer section.
It was not about the objections, but because of the content you posted (the objections just alert us to go check it out). You yourself knew you are crossing a line. And you wrote that you don't care if you get banned for it. Why the change of heart?
.
And, when I exercised common sense each time to delete the mutual banter between Pixie and me, you intervened by threatening to close my section down for my erasures.
I did not threaten to close your section down due to you erasing some of your content - it is part of my idea for the new seers that the users can edit and delete in their own section. The fact that your section was empty of content was what did the trick. Once your section became a magnet for trouble, it made even more sense to get rid of it. And yet.... it's still there...
.
My responses to subject matter in other threads were so untimely (moving through 'filters') as to be obsolete or/and nonsensical when finally posted. So, I posted responses in my section (harming no one). Of course it made no sense to preserve those replies because they were floating abstractions, disconnected from context in time. Thus, I deleted those after allowing a day for reading.
The reason for changing your rights was the banter in the threads. And the reason for wanting to close down your place was because you deleted all of its content. No need for a place with no content. You do not need a special forum to post your replies - you can post them where they belong (and dont give me that 22 day bs reason, you yourself wrote that it takes about 2 days for your posts to be approved - that is about what I noticed too. If it doesnt get approved within a few days it means there was some issue).
Did you not notice that the fast moving discussions are usually the ones where you do some faux pas? It is better for you when it takes a couple of days to post
. You know that you do not have to hurry and do not have to rush your post. Discussions that are actually deeper have a slower pace too. A pace where your mod queue delay does not pose much of an issue. You chose to participate in threads like "this one time" instead of actually discussing sorceric stuff. You are sending a signal that your posting is of very low interest to the intent of this site.
.
I essentially confined myself to my little corner, but that wasn't good enough. You seem very controlling. I urge you to consider allowing me back in my confined space as things were. You 'fixed' something that wasn't broken.
I urged you to take our rules and guidelines more seriously.
You did not confine yourself ... You naturally posted where you had more control...
I understand that it seems controlling to you. It is somewhat funny to me how people, who are insensitive to others, are actually very sensitive to stuff that concerns themselves. Weird, always found it weird...
.
I am not rudely leveraging, but what do think is going to happen when I am moved to circumvent. I will go through tor and vpn to create half a dozen tapatalk user names. Then there will be no constraints whatsoever, and it will be messy all around. You have taken no action on the multiple sock puppets, and you are currently allowing Le_Regard and Pixie Dust to engage in exactly in the same stalking I have been curbed for. I can produce exchanges of serloco hostily stalking Finwe where it is well outside the realm of socially accepted norms.
tapatalk has great measures for preventing this kind of chaos. I am not intimidated, nor will I act out of fear of a bully.
To my knowledge, there are no sockpuppets here right now. I do not know who you think is a sockpuppet. Care to elaborate?
There are quite a few differences between your case and what you mention. You were asked to stop - repeatedly. The problems we had with you were going on for ages, it was not just one thread and/or one interaction. Sometimes people bump heads during one or two interactions (hence it is local and of short duration - unlike what happened in your case.), we do not ban people for that (ofc it also depends on the specifics and the severity of the language etc.). But a constant hammering on someone, that crosses all the lines imo. You have been warned a few times, when I warned serloco he apologized and changed his behavior (and the scope of what he did was different). Big difference to how you responded. Even now you are threatening the site. Why would we want somebody like that around to post freely at our site? We wouldn't.
You allowed a stalker to use suggestions of my impending death. Anywhere else, that would have resulted quickly in an automatic ban (lifetime ban at that). But, latitude was given because of the context---> it was in a stalker's thread of a sorcery site.
I don't know what you are talking about. But I am already tired of repeating that if the mods here fail to notice or act on something like that that you should notify them. If you did not then it is too late to cry over it now.
.
This whole thing with Billy Ban, initially centered around what was perceived to be unwanted stalking. THAT would be a seriously GOOD reason to stop someone. ONLY, if you look closely now in hindsight, it NEVER was uninvited stalking.. AND THAT should trigger a review of this course you've taken in the first place.
I reviewed it. I have no better alternative ideas. You can review away too. I am always open to perfecting the way things are done to foster a place where people can have sorcery-related discussions.
I am just one person trying to do what can be done. I am imperfect and I always will be. Putting that aside, things are not as blurred as you'd like to believe in the sense that... It does not matter (for this site) if the stalking was initially invited or uninvited. It matters what you actually did and wrote (and also not on the past but on the present). And we did not penalize you for it before we made sure you know that you are crossing a line and that we will take action if you do so again... you chose to ignore us.
.
NOT ONLY THAT [AND, I'M GIVING COMPLIMENTARY CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE HERE] THE INSTIGATOR, the MASTER SOURCE (AS IN SORCERY), HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE WITCH ....LMAO
I don't understand your meaning here.
So, ya gonna restrict serloco, Le_Regard, Pixie Dust (and a half dozen puppets)?
I do not see why... and, again, I do not know of any puppets.
.
watergaze, you're reasonable... I'll voluntarily stay out this forum completely for over a month. Consider that you'll give me the Christmas Eve present of my loose autonomy in Billy's Detachment (Dec 24). And, I implore your nicety---> afford me a trial basis (free of filters) so that I might intelligently contribute to other threads in timely fashion. I will be on my best behavior in those threads outside of my own. I surely won't abuse that privilege (wink).
.
this was your trial basis. and you still break the rules where you can. Even here... look at your tone.. you don't think before you post. You then have to write messages saying you didn't mean to be confrontational. Well, damn, if you don't mean to be confrontational then don't be. Don't threaten, don't call people names, etc, etc, etc.
Otherwise, you just look like someone who is playing games. Hot and cold, nice and mean, this and that. Manipulative... untrustworthy... waste of time. Is that what you are going for? I sure hope not...
