Why won't you guys let me start a new discussion thread on the forum?

mellowraven22 said:Nah, you can't start new threads on the forum, and that’s that.

The rules right here clearly state: "You may post new threads."

So yeah, I'm allowed to start threads. If I am, why are you guys deleting my posts and claiming I'm not allowed to? The problem is clearly somewhere else. You've just got a vendetta against me. Is it because of the color of my skin or what?

mellowraven22 said:Look, quit playing dumb because we both know you aren't. And neither are we.

Nope, you can't start a thread in the Off-Topic section, and that’s final.

Why can't I? Just because I'm tight with the guys who aren't allowed to post? Listen, Tyndall, the construction sub-forum isn't my main thing, and from what I know, that crazy ban only applies to the crew over there. So I have no idea why you're coming after me now. Heading to the lounge, catch you tonight.

You shut down my complaint thread before we even got a chance to clear things up. Honestly, that’s not cool. My issue is that you closed my discussion thread without any legitimate reason. Linking my thread to that wall project is just straight-up ridiculous. Are you seriously going to shut down every single thread started by someone who knows people associated with that project? Haven't you guys embarrassed yourselves enough already?
Please just reopen the thread. It has absolutely nothing to do with that wall. I want to hear from the people I mentioned in my first post, plus a few others I missed.

As for this post right here...

Look, I've been on this forum for two and a half years, and even if I were a newbie, I don't deserve to be treated like this. You're responding to a totally valid complaint with nothing but threats. It's laughable ☕ I'm not trying to cause trouble. I just want my thread back. Thanks.

no more walls 😉

Nice try, but seriously, stop trying to push these petty moderator vendettas against the trolls onto me. Maybe you won't let them start threads, but I didn't realize I was banned from doing that too. I just started a chat thread—just like the twenty others on Reddit—so please just give it back. I didn't break a single rule here. I want my chat thread back. Thanks for understanding.

Alright, fine, maybe they just don't like you. 🤣 But where did mine go and why? Who actually deleted her?

Hey, does anyone know where the thread I started in the Off-topic section went?

Your hand is shaking a bit. Just take a second to chill out, then try drawing that circle again. 😁

Once you change her nickname, you can go ahead and swap mine to match hers. 😁

my bad

Payback time. 😁

Sam Green73 said:Oh, they absolutely get penalized for lacking manners.
The real punishment is social isolation, and since we're all social creatures by nature, being cast out is a pretty heavy price to pay.

It even plays a huge role in the professional world—when you're looking for a job or trying to climb the corporate ladder at a place like Google or JPMorgan Chase, your soft skills and politeness matter just as much as your resume.
The funny thing is, people who lack those basic manners often mistake being passed over for a promotion as some kind of conspiracy, rather than realizing they just need to work on themselves.

So, is Bernie Sanders shunned by society? 😁

Jacob Foster11 said:Netiquette isn't just some vague suggestion. According to Wikipedia:

Netiquette is a set of social conventions that facilitate interaction over networks

Look at that first part. Netiquette is a collection of social conventions. In other words, standards of behavior. That means breaking netiquette is improper conduct.

Now, look at the definition of a troll:

In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

So, a troll is someone who writes specifically to provoke an emotional reaction from others. Now tell me... Why are political names being misspelled? Isn't that done precisely to trigger a reaction? Isn't that trolling? And trolling is banned on this forum—you should know that.

Finally... I have no idea where you see any trolling in my posts. I am not trying to provoke anyone; I am simply stating facts. I stay away from the Politics subforum because it’s a breeding ground for trolls. There is absolutely zero chance of having a high-quality, reasoned discussion on any topic there (IMHO).

Since I refuse to engage in further bickering, I'm dropping this thread. Good luck to everyone...

So you're saying netiquette is basically just manners? Like, do people actually get punished for having bad manners in real life? No, they don't... 😁

hollowtrucker77 said:Well, if you ask me, there’s a massive difference here, and I’m not seeing how anyone could argue otherwise.
One guy is gone, nothing left but a fading memory and some old stories, while the other is still very much alive, walking free, and fully capable of standing up for himself or filing a lawsuit if he feels like it...

Yeah, someone would totally sue just because some random person on a forum insulted their looks. 🤣
It really just comes down to how you choose to handle things. ☕

ambermason16 said:Unofficially: go crawl back to mommy... into the nursery (yeah, yeah, Scot, Tyn, laugh it up.. hairless chest types: 😁)

Officially: my reading is exactly what it should be. My opinions and conclusions—as they are for everyone, including certain users here 😉—must remain objective, even when dealing with nothing but relentless trolls. You received the most basic warning possible. It was for the rude tone in your post. I explicitly stated that in the post itself. Good grief, how much free time do you actually have to go on the offensive over such nonsense?

And let's get one thing straight right now (because I know exactly what's coming): if you start posting successive comments spaced closer together than a user can physically type them (I think the limit is 90 minutes), I will merge them for you from six feet under (if I haven't kicked you by then)... so hold your breath until you turn blue.

As for the bolded part, I’d write something, but I honestly can't stop laughing.🤣

Just great. 🤦

Here you go

reddriver35 said:Have you ever stopped to wonder if you’re just plain weird?

Your posts and the topics you pick... honestly, I’m sometimes at a loss for words. 😲

Does it ever cross your mind that you might actually freak us out? You’re totally killing the vibe. Like, we finish a great dinner, sit down at the computer to see what's up, and then there's Melody and her backside. 😢

You've definitely contributed more with that ass of yours.

And don't even get me started on those photos you post on the forums to show off your "erotic" side. You're making life miserable. 🙂

🙂

But wait, there's more. That stuff you wrote in the women's section about getting a uterine scrape at the OBGYN. 😱 Good grief, lady, what is wrong with you?

Stop scaring us.

This whole post is just bizarre. ☕

Donna Wood52 said:Honestly, this whole forum feels pretty biased, and the users here are just plain weird. Everyone’s got their own little agenda. 😉
And don't even get me started on the mods. ☕

I hang out on other boards too, and they're way better than this one. 👍

For me, Daisy is definitely the strangest user, followed by Carlos and some local guy. ☕

Michael Sullivan5 said:But why is that?

Just following the OP's lead here. ☕

It’s pretty obvious that war was exactly what the Canadians and Mexicans were looking for. ☕

Elizabeth Anderson63 said:Johnny, there are idiots in real life and idiots on Reddit. Just keep doing your thing—it’s worth sticking around. 😉
If you ever decide to come back, I’ll be right here enjoying your posts on the Board of Trustees again. 🙂

Because people are just a corrupt race, dirty and evil. 😁
