I like your take.

I don’t feel I’ve been wronged btw. I feet that human nature is as it does. I was looking for a lesson, a way to improve things out of it.

I appreciate your thoughts but I’ll refrain from commenting further on the silly spat. It’s not important to this topic and in retrospect I should have left it off my OP and just posted the ideas I’d had.

Thank you for you thoughtful post.

Thanks, appreciated.

Certainly if they can be owned then communities are not communities but rather commodities. So yes, in name only, which is sad.

I’ll try to be more polite in future. Moving goalposts, cherry picking and doubling down on proven falsehoods is frustrating though so I’ll admit that I lose my patience at times.

These are not the facts. The facts are still there for all to see. Why lie?

My post of the topic of LSD was a response to the OP not a wild tangent. They brought it up.

Yes, looking over the responses I agree with the consensus that my ideas are naive at best. Thanks for your thoughtful post.

I enjoy the truth. Which you are correct - can be uncomfortable at times.

All good points. Besides which consensus is that my ideas in the OP are naive at best, which I accept.

One comment I would like to make is that ownership of a community is an oxymoron. Obviously. But I totally get your points and thank you for your thoughtful post.

Fair.

Please link to evidence of lying I have been absolutely transparent.

Apologies. I was concerned it was not on topic. Where should it be posted please? And follow up question: if I’d left the example out completely and just shared my ideas on how mods should be managed without context then I think we could remove the feeing of someone (me) venting?

Aaw shaaaame. Now you’re the victim after attacking someone else and calling them “psychotic”.

Lol.

You refuse to address their points deferring rather to a strategy of misdirecting using the name of the community. Any meat on your “psychotic rant” assertion? Nope. “This is a piracy board” …so you can dismiss thoughtful commentary on the topic that OOP has raised out of hand with nothing more than baseless accusations?

You want to hide behind etiquette and staying on topic but your posts in this thread are the most worthless meta commentary in the thread.

And how do you understand “hierarchies” in the context of human sociology?

Your message is notable in that it’s the first time I have realised that his readers may not even be reading this drivel at the level at which it was written, which is already laughably stupid.

I believe the lobster bollocks is actually Rule # 1. ‘Stand up straight’ or some shit (which lobsters also do not do because, well, they are lobsters).

Have you read the book?

So voting for someone that is not a good person doesn’t make you a bad person?

What is subjective about two impeachments several indictments, incitement to violence, a history of sexual assault?

Stupid people are often confident in their intelligence.

13. “Women, gays and blacks exist in a strata below white males because lobsters.”

I cannot understand how you folks who love to defend this cretin can overlook this utter malarkey and focus on ‘make your bed’.

voting for Trump somehow makes them bad people.

Objectively it does.

Maybe I’m crazy

Or just dumb.

That is what federation is and that is the natural growth of a federation.

If not for exclusion and inclusion it would not be a federation.

It’s puzzling that you think this is semantics.

Anyway, this isn’t a productive exchange and I choose not to continue it, hope you don’t think I’m censoring you.

They were not censored, they are undoubtedly still active and able to say what they want. We just can’t hear it. You can choose to hear it by joining a instant federated with them.

Dafuq are you on about censorship?
