Drew Lee7 said:You're lying!!!
I laid out exactly what I thought I proved. Then you come crashing in like a bandit through the front door shouting, "No, you didn't prove it!" and tossing out an argument I can just knock down.
Every single point I made had an argument behind it, or at least it was clearly my opinion or just a gut feeling.

Drew Lee7 said:On the flip side, I've been attacked, insulted, and trashed, but I haven't reported anyone once because honestly, it's beneath me.

Drew Lee7 said:Bottom line: can a moderator actually be someone who doesn't grasp basic logic?

Look, this guy just spit out a bunch of nonsense. He clearly doesn't get what an "argument" even is. An argument doesn't have to be some bulletproof fact, but you actually have to provide evidence! You can present valid points or invalid ones—that's why we even study fallacies—but you can't just lazily claim something is wrong without proving it. Getting a warning just because you don't understand how reasoning works? That shows either a total lack of logic or pure malice. Either way, they shouldn't be moderating.

Just take his statement over to the Philosophy subforum and see if I'm right.

Eric Gray2 said:Right. But if you aren't supposed to diagnose people, then why even label them at all?
The term "psychopath" is a psychiatric diagnosis—regardless of how much people try to water it down these days.

But look, if someone is constantly posting on a forum about painful sores in their private areas and dealing with infections—especially when they admit to being highly promiscuous and not using protection—you’d tell them they need to see a specialist immediately. In that case, it’s pretty obvious that this person is clearly mentally ill too.

Why would you tell one person to go see a doctor, but tell another that they are, plain and simple, undoubtedly sick? 😕

even though, I agree, we aren't doctors and this isn't a medical clinic.

See, this is a perfect example of when using a word like "undoubtedly" actually makes sense.
Even a dermatologist wouldn't dream of diagnosing someone or prescribing medication based solely on an internet forum. So how on earth does it make sense for a layperson in the field of mental health to do exactly that?

It's just that, even for a reasonably informed layperson, it's clear there is a health issue here.

Based on what diagnostic tools did you reach that conclusion? Where are the test results?
Man, hospitals could save a fortune if they didn't have to buy expensive psych diagnostic tools, tests, and manuals, since it's apparently obvious—even to amateurs—that pathology can be diagnosed just by reading forum posts.☕

No one without a degree in psychology or psychiatry has the right to hand out diagnoses like that, especially without proper clinical assessment. Forum posts—no matter how indicative they seem or how "obvious" they might look to a layman—simply aren't diagnostic evidence. This kind of forum "diagnosing," even if it's written with (undoubtedly ☕ ) the best intentions and total seriousness, is just as unprofessional, quackish, and trolling as telling someone, "Hey, go get help."

Jose Edwards16 said:Man, that explanation felt like an oral exam at some Ivy League university!

Jose Edwards16 said:Anyway, there’s one big thing tying these four videos together—it's all coming from the exact same person! Just pointing that out. Clips. Which ones were my favorites? Honestly, I don't even know! Why would I need to sit here and go through every single one individually?

I can't believe I actually saw this! Seriously, my mind is blown. Just had to jump on here and share. This is huge! kaže:
So what’s the point of having mods here? To actually moderate! Honestly, if there was an issue—which I didn't even cause, by the way—wouldn't it be easier just to split my post into two or three smaller ones? If that's what needs doing, fine. But why go through all that hassle when a mod can just lock the whole thing and call it a day? Much simpler!☕
What if I’d just stuck to one single link in the post? Would that have been cool—or would people still be complaining?🤔

Hey! Just wanted to jump in here. Hope everyone is having a killer day! kaže:
Look, it's not my fault if a handful of people around here can't be bothered to use the quote button! I shouldn't be getting penalized by having this thread locked just because they can't follow simple rules. Not fair! ☕

Jose Edwards16 said:That's just bias—no matter how you slice it...

Ethan Hayes2 said:Of course I reported it. But the thread is still sitting there, which leads me to wonder about the logic being used here—if it’s been proven that the person who started this whole thing is nothing more than a professional troll on this site.

Frank Williams7 said:Hey, reality check time. 🙂 Seventy-one pages of the exact same thing from the exact same people.😉

As for the rest, I’ll just say it: none of the stuff mentioned above counts as a handicap.

And—God help me—spare me the "perfect" people. Not only do they not exist outside of their own heads, but life would be incredibly boring if you were constantly surrounded by them.

Frank Williams7 said:Alright Charles Davis88, we’re looking at a spectrum here—ranging from selective ignorance to total, willful blindness, depending on whether the issue hits home personally or not.

I don't feel like dragging this out any further. I highly doubt we're ever going to see eye to eye on this.

Look, I wasn't really preaching or being a moralist, and I definitely wasn't the only one voicing a different opinion—though we all hit the same wall.

You want to know where the real issue lies? It's that guys and men dealing with a small and thin penis actually suffer for it. It legitimately wrecks their self-esteem, and you can bet they've been reading this thread. If you could just step out of your "one of the legends forum hr." persona for a second and move into "I'm a flawed human being but still a decent person" mode, you might ask yourself why these guys are struggling. The answer is simple: it's the bullying from the "gifted" crowd and their constant need to dominate the space. It doesn't matter if it's a "funny" nose shape, a lack of wit, or a small and thin penis—the conclusion is the same. It's unfair, and it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with them.

Maybe the fix for this whole mess is for the forum dinosaurs to finally learn some restraint.

Apophis. Just hearing the name makes my skin crawl a little. It’s one of those things that keeps you up at night if you think about it too long. You start looking at the sky, wondering if we're actually prepared for something like that hitting us. Most people just go about their day, grabbing a coffee at Starbucks or driving to work in Chicago, acting like nothing can touch them. But space doesn't care about our schedules. It's a heavy thought. A big, looming "what if" hanging over everything. kaže:
My way of thinking works just fine. I know that because if I couldn't independently crunch data, synthesize it quickly, and make the right call based on what's in front of me, I wouldn't be able to hold down my job. Simple as that. Just a heads-up—my profession isn't something I’m going to debate on this thread or any other. So, let's not even go there.

Give it a shot. And look, I’ll say it again just so we’re clear—I haven't exactly handed you a clinical diagnosis for "paranoia" or "delusions of persecution." You tell me.And that’s exactly where we differ. That's the whole damn point.

So, does that mean you actually have the credentials to be handing out diagnoses like candy? If you do, are you even sure you’ve landed on the right conclusion here? And if you are—and that’s a big if—would you actually have the guts to say that same thing while you're on the clock at work?

If you aren't even qualified to be handing out diagnoses like candy, then what exactly am I reading here? What's the point of your posts?

So, if I follow this logic, if I just stand up and say that I'm being offended... what happens then? What’s the move? Your presence on this forum? It’s basically its own little planet. Just floating out there in the void. Honestly, it's a lot to take in sometimes. I don't know. Maybe I'm just overthinking it. But yeah, you've got your own orbit going on here. Look, if you’re going to quote my posts just to say "good morning" or "I agree," that’s it. That's where I draw the line. At that point, my feelings become a matter of constitutional protection, and your posts are basically subject to an automatic report because I’m officially stating they're offensive. Brilliant. Truly.

Look, if that attitude is coming from nothing more than a simple disagreement, then it’s totally overkill. That’s the whole point of these forums—to have different opinions clashing. If we all thought the same thing, we wouldn't bother showing up. Besides, there's still moderation in place to make sure things don't spiral into being completely inappropriate.

I said what I said. I pointed out the flaws and called out the double standards. Done.

Look, let’s get one thing straight—there’s no double standard here. When I said that any sane person has actual sexual relationships with people rather than just obsessing over porn, I was simply stating what most people do. That’s exactly what I told Phiber when we were going back and forth earlier.

Look, your posts are honestly just insults at this point. You’re doing nothing but trying to discredit what I have to say instead of actually talking. Can we please get back to reality? I’ve asked two very specific questions now, twice. Just answer them.

Frank Williams7 said:So, how did I end up being tagged just to answer my own post? (That was a rhetorical question, by the way.)

Look, my way of thinking is solid. It’s been field-tested. I wouldn't be able to hold down the job I have if I couldn't take a pile of raw data, tear it apart, synthesize it on the fly, and make the right call every single time. If I wasn't capable of that kind of quick, accurate analysis, I wouldn't be sitting here. Simple as that.

Just so we’re clear—my job isn't something I'm going to be discussing on this thread or any other. So, don't even bother trying to steer the conversation that way. Save your breath.

Basically, we're looking at a total shot in the dark here.

This is a whole different ballgame. I mean, sure, there are some surface-level similarities to what I was saying before, but we’re talking about something entirely different here. We're talking about a diagnosis for a severe mental illness. That changes everything.

Question—do you actually have the credentials to be making claims like that?

If you actually are, how exactly are you handling your internship?

Would you actually pull this stunt at your job?

If not them, then who else here thinks they have a problem?

You're asking me the exact same thing I already complained about on this thread. Seriously?

For most people, that’s the exact moment things hit a wall—the second the person on the other end says, "Hey, you offended me."

When it comes to what people colloquially call a small and thin dick, things get complicated fast. Everyone on this thread seems to act like having one means you’re basically broken or non-functional. It’s a rigged game. If you’re reading this and you don't meet the "forum-approved" standard for size, you're stuck. You don't have a choice. Everyone else? They’ve got options. The heavy guys can lose weight, the skinny guys can bulk up, people can get breast surgery, nose jobs, whatever—they can tweak their look. But if you're dealing with that specific issue, there isn't a quick fix. You're just left sitting there.

That’s just plain wrong. Saying they aren't functional is a lie. Sexual dysfunction isn't some direct reflection of how long a guy is equipped, and performance issues hit everyone just the same, regardless of size. But I know if I say that out loud, I'm just asking for a mob mentality reaction. 🙂 "You've come here to explain things to us"—honestly, this whole thread feels like a bunch of thirteen-year-olds bickering during recess. It’s that exact level of immature back-and-forth, except it’s happening on a public platform where everyone can see it. Not exactly my finest hour.

Once mod / Supermod, always a Mod/Supermod? This whole attitude—acting all high and mighty like "you mere mortals can't touch me"—that comes from you, Colbert, and ZgSash. It’s part of the recurring problem here. If you were relatively new to a forum, you’d definitely notice it, though that doesn't mean you'd actually fight back against that mindset. ZgSash takes it even further, smugly claiming that only losers would care about someone with a small and thin dick that doesn't meet certain "forum standards." Is that a public insult? Is there any sanction for that? Let's say some girl says she has a great body (if you can even call it that), but she has standards for the guy she sleeps with, and she won't settle for less—because, hey, knows she won't be satisfied that way. It’s pure mythology. And I hate myths, which is why I'm making such a big deal out of this.

I suggested we see who stands behind certain views because I think people might be surprised by the results.

That doesn't mean sensitive people aren't allowed to chime in on any topic. It just means they're going to get provoked in the exact same way, mostly by the same small group of people, of which you're one of the ringleaders.

Yeah, it's not. You don't even have to bother if you don't feel like it.

There's also the easy way out: I just walk away. I won't be the first or the last to do it. I'm still weighing whether it's the right move, but most likely it is, since my free time isn't exactly infinite anyway.

That’s just plain wrong. Saying they aren't functional is a lie. Sexual dysfunction isn't some direct reflection of how long a guy is equipped, and performance issues hit everyone just the same, regardless of size. But I know if I say that out loud, I'm just asking for a mob mentality reaction. 🙂 "You've come here to explain things to us"—honestly, this whole thread feels like a bunch of thirteen-year-olds bickering during recess. It’s that exact level of immature back-and-forth, except it’s happening on a public platform where everyone can see it. Not exactly my finest hour.

Once mod / Supermod, always a Mod/Supermod? This whole attitude—acting all high and mighty like "you mere mortals can't touch me"—that comes from you, Colbert, and ZgSash. It’s part of the recurring problem here. If you were relatively new to a forum, you’d definitely notice it, though that doesn't mean you'd actually fight back against that mindset. ZgSash takes it even further, smugly claiming that only losers would care about someone with a small and thin dick that doesn't meet certain "forum standards." Is that a public insult? Is there any sanction for that? Let's say some girl says she has a great body (if you can even call it that), but she has standards for the guy she sleeps with, and she won't settle for less—because, hey, knows she won't be satisfied that way. It’s pure mythology. And I hate myths, which is why I'm making such a big deal out of this.

I suggested we see who stands behind certain views because I think people might be surprised by the results.

That doesn't mean sensitive people aren't allowed to chime in on any topic. It just means they're going to get provoked in the exact same way, mostly by the same small group of people, of which you're one of the ringleaders.

Yeah, it's not. You don't even have to bother if you don't feel like it.

There's also the easy way out: I just walk away. I won't be the first or the last to do it. I'm still weighing whether it's the right move, but most likely it is, since my free time isn't exactly infinite anyway.

vividtiger922 said:Look, I was just asking for clarity. How many times do I have to say I wasn't asking for an official statement or a ruling? I’m just using my right to say I don't like something. It's a human thing, a forum thing, a professional thing—whatever. Is this what this place is for? Yes. Did I ask *you* specifically for an answer? No. Did I demand one from the moderator? No.

vividtiger922 said:By the way, it really wouldn't hurt if we all just stuck to our own business here. Honestly, I don't even bother with your tone or how you act because I don't think anyone cares what I think about it. Maybe you could be polite enough to stop doing the same to me. Read the content, not the person. Please.

vividtiger922 said:So, if I politely ask you to go screw yourself, and then I thank you for actually taking my well-meaning advice... does that mean I’m not being unkind? Just asking! 😁

vividtiger922 said:I’m asking a really simple question here—why was that user's post flagged as off-topic back then? I mean, what exactly was bothering the mods?

vividtiger922 said:Since we're already talking about this, I'll use it as a quick example of some non-Gentleness from the mod team.

vividtiger922 said:It was flagged as off-topic. She reported him, and the admins agreed it fit the description. That’s exactly what you did in your own post. Just stating facts!

vividtiger922 said:Actually, this wasn't meant to be a complaint, and it definitely wasn't aimed at your comment.
The thread is called "Gentleness," right? You chose to show an example of gentle communication, and I'm just pointing out the opposite. It just so happens to involve you! Doesn't mean I was asking for your input.

Jeffrey Garcia6 said:The mods have been busy in the meantime—they went ahead and merged two existing threads into this one:

Because of how urgent this situation is, we’ve bumped this thread to the top of the forum index.

We’re banking on this move driving up traffic significantly and hopefully sparking a wave of rapid-fire responses from everyone.

If things don't pick up speed, we'll have to reconsider where this thread ultimately belongs. 😁

Kyle Carter2 said:What about those threads where you actually need deep subject matter expertise? I’m talking heavy religious theology, like those complex Byzantine filioque debates, or the nuances between purgatory and various spiritual states. It’s hard for even an admin to tell if a discussion is drifting off-topic, or if it's just people trolling or spamming when they don't even grasp the core concept. How are you supposed to spot it if you don't know what's being discussed, right? You guys know I'm onto something here!
