Wow, is Rachelellogram is waffling again? Sheesh, get some backbone.
Well, try to clear it up some, then. I didn’t know it was wrong now to attempt calm the water a bit and try to find out what the hell is going on in ATMB. Enlighten me, dude.
Modern Art.
Dude, I can’t speak for CarnalK, but fucking stop. I am in complete agreement with your larger points in this thread, but your posting style does NOT “calm the waters”. Far from it. It’s the passive aggression you display that irks people as evidenced by the quote above. You damn well know what’s going on in ATMB and anybody who starts a rebuttal with “I didn’t know it was wrong to..” is just a douchebag.
I’m sorry, but you have to know this. How can you not? There have been multiple threads taking you to task for this very thing.
Words like"interrogation" are thrown at me, I’m accused of “acting like a Mod” and “calming the waters”(really? that’s a bad thing now?), and the first jab in this thread
I didn’t apologize for jack shit-I just had guts enough not to jump on the “I demand satisfaction NOW!” bandwagon, and I pointed out the real reasons why immediate gratification of that sort just wasn’t possible. Was I my usual self? Damn right I was. From previous experience I know how much hard work is done behind the scenes when something like this happens, and I damn well appreciate the moderators I used to work with forthat hard work. The last thing they need are apologies from people like me, but I sure as hell won’t forget what the job entailed. If you think for one minute that my speaking out like any other poster on this board makes me a dick just because I used to be a moderator, so be it.
edited to add: Those multiple threads “taking me to task”? There were a few words of wisdom in them, but there was also a lot of piling on those who troll ATMB looking for blood. I’ll continue listening to those who have advice I can use to better myself, but those others can kiss my ass.
Watch your quote boxes. I didn’t say "Czarcasm made a dick of himself by being his usual apologist self for non action by the Mods. "
I’ve thought about it a second, and I think it pisses me off. Czarcasm, I’m reporting you for mis-attributing a quote to me. I requested a mod note rather than a warning, though.
My quote attribution was to the first jab at me in this thread, not to anything you said.
Then attribute it to that, asshole. Not to me. By doing that you mis-characterized me. I’ve already reported it.
I’ve been here ten years, and this is the first time I’ve had to report something like that.
Question for Czarcasm: Who the fuck said what you quoted?
Monkey why are you so upset by this???
Come on, folks. this thread was started to Pit Floater. if you think you have earned your own Pit thread, I think the line starts over there--------------------------------
I think there were enough clues that it wasn’t you that said it, what with my referring to other things said earlier in the thread, and my saying that said quote was the first jab in this thread, which means I couldn’t have been referring to you, but fine:
All clear now?
It’s simple. He attributed to me words I did not say, argued against them, and by doing so mis-characterized me. That is a HUGE breech of board etiquette. Would you want me to start arguing against posts others made and attribute them to you? Of course not.
As I have pointed out twice, I did no such thing.
Agreed, this one is pretty simple - Czarcasm fucked up and the nameless quote suggests it’s a continuation of the previous quote. Not sure why this is contentious. Any unattributed quote following a previous attributed quote is reasonably assumed to be quoting a different part of the same post, or at least from several posts of the same user. There’s no indication given as to who that quote is attributed to as written.
hold
Read it again, asshole. I clearly attributed the quote to the first jab in this thread. Unless A Monkey With a Gun is claiming that he didn’tsee any of the other posts about me before he posted, then he is wrong to make his claim.
I’ll drop it because I’ve already reported it, and Czarcasm finally set the record straight about who it came from, but that doesn’t mean I have to like the weaselly bastard.
Did you honestly think you were the first to comment about my posting in that thread, even after I mentioned those two other things you also obviously hadn’t said?
