I’m asking the moderator to please do their job. Discussing other users isn't the point here, and it’s against the forum rules.

JollyRoger13 said:You have quite a history of mocking dead civilians on this forum.

And it's all wrapped up in some childish, fanboy-style trolling (Americans hahaha, Juan Guaidó hahaha).


Ferdinand Foch said:That's his specialty. I still remember back in 2014-2015 how some people here were celebrating "encirclements" and every massacre of Ukrainians. Then they just moved on to other topics. Well, what can you do, everyone has their own way of celebrating. ☕


Anonymous said:It's a shame we can't see where everyone is from on this forum—whether they're from Mexico or Canada—it would make more sense (and be irrelevant) why someone is so one-sidedly rooting for all of the USA's enemies (NATO, Israel, the West, the EU... etc.). ☕

Of course, I'd have more respect for those from there who actually hold progressive, rational views.

Wait, look at this... someone who trolls more than anyone else is actually complaining now. 🤦

Still no response. This user anamoonaj spends most posts analyzing other members instead of actually sticking to the topic, yet the moderator lets it slide:

Anyway, I've been watching from the start, and I don't see those usual "commissars" anymore—the ones who used to strictly warn anyone pro-Russia to just put dissenters on "ignore."
Now they've moved on to subtler tactics, like "accidentally" noticing the very people you've blocked.
Of course, you wouldn't read this...
If it weren't for you guys, I'd have to invent you just to stay entertained. It's honestly funny.

Look, sorry, but I really don't care
about being "ignored"—in fact, the more the better. But using the ignore tool on this forum against someone just because they think differently? That doesn't seem particularly smart to me.

I admit, I tested the ignore feature just to see how it works.
I tried it on a guy who was basically just posting ads for another site anyway (so I didn't lose anything in the debate). To be honest, it seems like a pretty pointless feature, and I think it mostly benefits those who aren't exactly...
It just occurred to me, does anyone know how to undo an ignore? Since I'm "accidentally" an expert at ignoring now, maybe someone could read this and let me know.
Best,

Moderatura PDF. Politics was all movies, theater, and nice dinners last night. This morning, some folks were out walking along the Boardwalk or through Central Park, while others—Lord help them—were stuck grading tests.

We have a team-building event tomorrow once the presidential conventions wrap up, just to recover a bit. Everything is on the house, of course.

Regarding this topic, I really don't feel like explaining again: the point is to report the post using the icon. If Moderatura doesn't respond within 24 hours, then we can take it up here on the PDF.

I wrote this post at 9 AM today. As I mentioned, we also have things called "private lives." Patience is a virtue.☕

Moderatura on the PDF doesn't even erase this:

even though using nothing but emojis instead of actual comments goes totally against the forum rules...

and then there's this:

there are dozens of comments just like this one from my colleague over on the Politics/World section of the PDF...

On the commentary:

I could go on forever quoting how much this guy is trolling... but there's really no point. Anyway, stay positive!

Regarding this topic, I don't feel like explaining again that the point is to report a post using the flag icon. If there's no response from Moderatura within 24 hours, then we can discuss it here on this pdf.

That sounds lovely and, frankly, true. I took advantage of the nice weather and went for a walk in a Small town in USA.
But the bigger issue is when an anonymous user tries to psychoanalyze someone on the "opposing" side, and instead of deleting that post, a moderator explains why that "opposing" side acts the way it does. I don't need those character studies. We just need the insults deleted—like when someone supporting Russia or Putin is immediately labeled a Mexican or something similar. Personally, I grab coffee with people I disagree with politically without resorting to slurs.
That’s the main reason I put together this "journal." That's my take. Thanks for listening.

The thread starter and the head moderator have basically shook hands on everything, agreeing that all the points brought up in this discussion so far pretty much cover the whole deal.

It’s finally the weekend, so I figure everyone could use a little breather.

Enjoy the downtime 🙂
