I think Colibri is rapidly losing it addressing this issue. I have been up front that I accept the warning for not following his instruction. It was not intention but it was still my fault. My issue has always been that “paper towel tube” is considered a jab or snipe at SA. Apparently the mods believe by induction that since everyone has done it before that now everyone that who uses the “paper towel tube” must be saying to themselves “Remember Starving Artist and his paper towel tube theory? I’m going to use his own theory to insult him.”
Or the mods think that since it became a meme because of everyone making fun of SA that using “paper towel tube” is the same effect of making fun of him because THAT is really the meme at work. I vehemently disagree with this interpretation. IMO, jabbing or swiping is an intentional act and it was not my intention to insult SA although the mods disagree claiming the insult is an unintended consequence.
So remember how I accepted full responsibility for getting the warning specifically because it was for not following a mod’s instruction independent of whether or not it was a jab?
In the second thread on this topic we see
If Colibri wan’t to call me out because I still contend it was not a snipe then fine, but can’t a mod be a little more mature about it and at least call me out on the right issue?
