Casey Bennett said:Exactly. There are plenty of ways to keep a journal, whether you prefer old-school paper or a digital format.

I'm actually planning to launch a YouTube channel this February to talk about Dora and everything else involving Eurovision, all in English.

I'll send you the link 🙂

Casey Bennett said:I honestly can't wrap my head around why you'd act that way sometimes either. I suppose the justification lies in that previous response you gave me.

I basically have three ways of reporting stuff here:

1. The little triangle icon—I just flag it as a troll or ask to delete an ad.

2. For one of those PDFs, I just shoot a message over to Nice and that’s it. Nice always sorts it out every single time, and man, I really appreciate that because that PDF is super important to me.

3. The last one was reporting it to Andrew so he could merge two different threads.

Have I ever actually been rude when I report a post to you?

As for that thing about the brakes... yeah, fine, I'll own it. I was wrong there.

Regarding reporting posts, the mods can see exactly what I’m flagging, and let me tell you, I’ve never once been rude when I submit a report. I don't get why anyone would think I'm being disrespectful?!

Do you honestly want to be posting on the NYC PDF where most people are just going to ignore you? ☕

Look, I write for myself, not because of what anyone else thinks.

Casey Bennett said:Let me set the record straight on yet another blatant misquotation: Casilda doesn't just unilaterally decide whether to implement or scrap a partial ban. It doesn't matter which other moderators happen to be online at any given moment; the expectation is that we reach a consensus. If we can't come to a unanimous decision, then the status quo remains.

Man, if that's how things worked, even the Supreme Court would be a joke. Even they mostly rule by majority vote with a few dissenting opinions here and there.

Like with those COVID-19 certificates—there were three dissenting opinions where people didn't agree, but the majority decided the certificates were legal.

Here you go:

Jeremy Johnson18 said:Why don't you just scrap that idea entirely and start a clone instead?
It’ll probably take them a few days to even catch on. 🍿

I'll admit I thought about it, but then I realized I'd be shutting the door on the PDF NYC scene forever. Plus, Casilda would never let me hear the end of it, constantly nagging me about how I'm not sticking to the rules.

Jeremy Johnson18 said:So, basically what I'm saying is: if you only have partial access to Television, you won't even see the Eurovision sub-forum.

Why isn't it working like that now?

Yeah, exactly, but I'm just trying to unselect that specific section on the main dashboard so I can actually get into the NYC Eurovision PDF.

The rest of the PDFs will still stay tucked under that section.

I don't have any issues with Witch since I haven't posted anything on her PDF before anyway, and that new guy Altarifan doesn't even know who I am.

Casey Bennett said:Perhaps you haven't done it publicly—I don't follow you, nor anyone else, to avoid any confusion 😬.
You seem to forget that moderators have access to material that regular users can't see, such as your reported posts and their associated comments.
Of course, we aren't allowed to disclose that here, which is a shame right now because I feel like the little bit of support you're getting from certain individuals would vanish instantly if they knew.

However, in this specific instance, I consider your persistent rule-breaking to be the definition of arrogance. I've already vented about this on this board, and frankly, I have no desire to scroll back through old threads to repeat myself.

look, a forum is one thing, but real life is something else entirely

because in reality, I'm the complete opposite (too bad you weren't at any of the forum meetups) + I'm using a handle here, so my filter isn't nearly as strong 😉

whatever is written in the moderator logs doesn't phase me—most people here know me by my posts anyway, so I don't care what's in those files.

the only ones who matter are the people who know me both online and in person. that's what counts (and there are some, including a few mods and even some family). I could be Madonna for all they care, it wouldn't change anything.

Casey Bennett said:Like I said, all that arrogance finally came back to bite them right in the ass. 😉

I am anything but arrogant

When did I ever act stuck up?

Casey Bennett said:It’s been proven by the example of that skeptic clinging to the pdf Eurovision file that you simply can't just open any random pdf.
The partial restriction covers the entire sub-forum, and even though we thought we could grant access to a nested sub-sub-forum for those under partial restrictions, it turns out that isn't technically possible.

That doesn't mean the mods would agree to it in this instance, even if it were doable. When you give someone a mountain of chances to evolve from a spammer into a productive member, and they just toss those opportunities into the wind while shouting, "Who cares? You can't do anything to me, your warnings and restrictions don't mean a damn thing," there comes a point where the mods realize it's just not worth the headache.

Casey, once the main root is locked down, you lose access to all the sub-files under that root too.

Like, take the beautiful us section or the Washington, D.C. section—if a user still has access to the main beautiful us file, they're fine.

But if you restrict the main root, the user loses everything. It's like having a main root called beautiful us and a sub-root called Washington, D.C. If you grant partial access to the NYC file, the user can still see the beautiful us file. But if you restrict the beautiful us file, the user won't even be able to see the NYC file.

So, say there's a wolf and a bunch of sheep—we could have made the COVID-19 file its own thing, and kept the Skeptics in a separate file.

Then we could have put the COVID-19 file under partial access while leaving the Skeptic crew alone.

The way it's set up now, if you restrict COVID-19, the Skeptics get caught in the crossfire automatically because the COVID-19 file is the main gateway to the Skeptic files.

Casey Bennett said:But you've already screwed up countless times. Total garbage, right? That's exactly why you don't have access anymore.

back then, the PDF NYC didn't even exist yet 😉

Casey Bennett said:Sounds good to me! 👍

🙂 😘

Jerry Robinson56 said:I understand, but... 😁

I have no desire to ask you whether I am considered a useful member 🕺 you know what I mean...
You possess discretionary authority in accordance with Chapter Big A to grant mercy.

Initially, I was denied access to one solitary thread on the entire NYC PDF, so I remain silent on how such inversions are possible. However, as the gentleman here suggested, perhaps a month of conditional freedom—not applied to just one single thread—would suffice. If he violates the terms, shoot him without hesitation...

And in exchange, I propose a one-month ban for myself during that period 🙂 across all threads (with the exception of the Return of the Banned section)... actually, make it two months.

If I screw up, I'm losing access to that pdf NYC forever, so you can bet I'm gonna be playing it safe.

Casey Bennett said:Are you planning on suing Casilda? In front of the Supreme Court? 🍿

hahahaha, now this one's actually good 👍

Casey Bennett said:Eurovision is just television. And these moderators? They’re the same old crowd, and frankly, the community doesn't want them anymore either. I don't know how much clearer it needs to get.

Look, Casey Bennett, it's just one mod who doesn't want me—Casilda—because he's the only one running this specific section.

Anyway, I'm gonna reopen this exact same thread in January on 01/03/2023 (Tuesday). Trust me, I've got nothing but patience.

Casey Bennett said:Here’s the bottom line: people aren't following the rules regarding the Eurovision PDF, opting instead for mindless copy-pasting and spamming comments that offer zero actual value to the discussion.

And don't act like you're oblivious, because this exact same nonsense has been dragging on for years across this entire forum; it’s just that your own stubbornness has finally backfired and hit you right where it hurts: Eurovision.

Yeah, I mean Television, not the Eurovision thread. That's what I'm talking about.

I don't care about some "Television thread"—everything stays under partial access. I just want the main root opened up so I can actually get into the Eurovision thread, but apparently, nobody wants to get that through their heads.

I don't give a damn about reality shows, series, unreleased stuff, or whatever else garbage is up there. It all stays hidden behind those partial restrictions anyway.

Look, I’m not even trying to rip clips off the Television!! How am I supposed to be breaking any rules on the pdf Eurovision when I don't even have any posts over there?!

Let’s take a look at the responses from previous threads:

July 17, 2020:
Anthony Morales65: Larry Walker24, I think this is actually the fourth time you've been flagged on the Television pdf. You definitely can't claim you weren't given enough chances. It’s on you that you blew every single one of them.

April 15, 2021:
Casilda: Per the Television pdf moderator's decision, the partial ban stands. You can request to have it lifted in November 2021.

October 8, 2021
Spokesperson: From what I understand, there are legitimate reasons why Larry Walker24 doesn't have access to that subforum.

I still don't see what the actual reason is?

Maria Barnes said:You set this thread up all wrong. This isn't a thread about Eurovision history; it's a thread about your personal drama. You should have included links to every previous thread regarding your suspension. Everything is documented there. Not everyone knows your specific situation, and even those who do need to refresh their memory to see if anything has changed since then.

Hey. Look, you know I have massive respect for you, Ms. Maria Barnes.

but check out what I wrote back in post 33:

I promise I won't copy-paste anyone else's stuff—it'll be strictly my own posts, and I'll stick to the one-month timeframe. I'm going to follow every single rule Casilda laid out before my probation gets lifted. I tried asking to scrap the whole thing (all 12 months) before, and that didn't fly, so now I'm pushing for just a month.

Besides, I don't go around insulting people or being a troll on this forum, and I've never broken my probation rules once (Nice can vouch for that)... I really am playing by the book.
