shadowseal12, I already told you—I can't make this any clearer. If you aren't getting it now, you're just not listening. The main thing is that the zidić wasthe most vulgar, stupid, and just plain trashy stuff—basically the bottom of the barrel for this site.
Glad to hear you’re enjoying the rest of this incredibly wholesome forum and that you haven't spotted any controversial posts or threads. Honestly, there aren't any, thanks to our super diligent mods. This place is as clean as a whistle.
It's just a little weird that even you didn't chime in on those two threads I started? All five of them.
Man, seriously, what is even going on here? Like, hello? Is anyone actually listening? Hey, Tyndall, you feel me? It’s like... man, I don't even know. Just... wow.
Pfuu, why do I even bother? 🤷
@shadowseal12, it’s really about the principle here. Using the zidić rule as an example just shows how inconsistent, stubborn, and frankly brain-dead the way some mods and admins enforce the rules is—not to mention their "inspiring" posts on those various PDFs, which are just tacky and totally beneath the job they're doing.
Some people get a free pass, while others can't even breathe without getting flagged.
So yeah,
the zidić thing is just one case. I’m complaining because all this stuff is toxic for the forum. And trust me, I’m not the only one feeling it; just comb through the PZK threads and you'll see what I mean.
If you want to see the level of "class" they show when dealing with the thread starter (me), check it out here:
And right here:
Oops, my bad... nothing to see here, actually. No letters, no maps, nothing at all.😁
Get it now?

Honestly, this inconsistent moderation style is what's killing the vibe here, if you ask me.
Think about it—if some middle managers at a place like JPMorgan acted like this, where the secretaries basically enable all the shady business and nonsense their buddies pull, that company would go belly up overnight. But in America, unfortunately, that kind of behavior is just the status quo.
So yeah, everything's totally fine. 😁
I don't know... just tell those two which 10 or so clones you've supposedly banned in the last couple of hours 🤷
And he couldn't delete any clones either... because there aren't any. He's sitting right here next to me, I can see exactly what he's up to ☕
mellowraven22, seriously—deleting posts where nobody even insulted anyone just proves my entire point. So, thanks for the "support."
This forum shouldn't be some private club for you and your buddies; it’s supposed to be a place built by the people who actually read and write here. Your job is to serve us, not the other way around. You're here for us, period.
Nothing lasts forever, or so they say.
I'll try to ignore the fact that you didn't address a single point I made, but please don't use this as an excuse to spin the narrative. You're arguing against things I never even claimed or questioned.
mellowraven22, look at your logic here: you wiped out an entire thread that tons of people were following with a smile. Meanwhile, we see actual serious meltdowns on this forum all the time that get way lighter sanctions. There’s no debate there; it's obvious to everyone, including you.
Of course that triggered a wave of clones. But as far as I know (and seriously, I'm telling you: I know things I probably shouldn't), there weren't any offensive PMs coming from the Zidić crowd. Those happened elsewhere, if you catch my drift.
But hey, believe whatever you want; nobody can stop you. Power and authority should go hand-in-hand with ethics, responsibility, and keeping a cool head.
Any unbiased observer can clearly see the anger and bias toward the Zidić group bubbling up in your post right now. You guys delete them the second they even breathe in the wrong direction.
So, you're basically saying you deleted the Zidić crew just because you didn't like it (and maybe because they're women? God forbid I suggest discrimination) that something was on the same level as the elementary school trolling you're accusing those same Zidić folks of doing.
The real damage to this forum is being done by other members. Just think about that.
Here’s a quick look at the kind of chat the mods let slide on the forum:
Hey there, forum mods.
Let’s get one thing straight right out of the gate: I’m [Name]'s husband, not some carbon copy of someone else. ☕
Look, I hope you guys can respect my right to speak my mind even if you hate what I have to say. Here’s my take: I see way too many threads where people are allowed to just dump all their hateful, racist, sexist, militant, religious, and straight-up aggressive garbage without anyone stepping in. Get outta here with that ad hominem crap. Stick to the argument. Like the guys on the soccer team—Clint Eastwood just clones the mods whenever he feels like it.
Look, since you guys backed Deedy in his totally irrational crusade against Zidić just out of some sense of camaraderie, I need to ask: am I even someone with any integrity left? Is it even worth me staying on to handle mod and admin duties here? The guy’s language in that "Men's Corner" PDF is honestly revolting—it reads like something straight out of a gutter, full of that aggressive, low-life slang used by thugs who only feel big when they're punching down at people with less power. Given all that, I'm questioning if I can still hold this position with my head held high.
You know exactly who I’m talking about. Given my luck, I'm expecting this thread to get nuked immediately—even if that totally goes against everything we stand for here on the forums. Still, I'm gonna hold out a little hope that someone actually steps up with some real arguments to counter the criticism. I'll be hanging around, respectfully. Cheers.
