Cuka, what counts as trolling here?

On the thread regarding Miroslav Škoro—unlike certain other forum users who were busy trolling by bringing up Eric Adams, Joe Biden, or Filipović... I end up getting a warning and a two-day ban just because I was strictly discussing Škorin's qualities:

"Škoro has proven himself as an entrepreneur across multiple sectors, succeeding in every single one. He even has his own vineyards and produces award-winning wine.

Beyond that, Škoro is eloquent, he knows foreign languages (unlike Eric Adams, whose grasp of anything besides basic English is questionable), and he actually feels like a real human being—not like some of those bearded monkeys running for office. He’s traveled the world and understands exactly what Washington, D.C. needs and how to make it happen.

He is easily the most well-rounded individual—as a man, a businessman, and a politician. Most of his experience comes from the private sector, which is a stark contrast to the other candidates who have zero connection to actual industry or managing large-scale systems.

That is precisely why everyone is ganging up on Škoro today; both the Left and the Republican Party know he is their most dangerous competitor.

This is just a continuation of the harassment campaign started by Zoran Oštrić, who was trolling this very same thread. I reported him, yet absolutely nothing was done about his behavior.

I am asking for the hundredth time: why the double standards? Why?...

Why hasn't Oštrić been slapped with a warning for this?

"Oh, but perhaps the true candidate of Plenković is VŠO!? (see above, #3809)

Mainly because we aren't interested in insulting people.

He actually looks like a human being, unlike those other candidates who look like bearded monkeys.

And this, because we stopped using those playground tricks a long time ago.

Great, really great... but if you’re calling indirect insults (even without naming names) "trolling," then why on earth didn't you penalize this blatant, direct insult? We are literally discussing a thread about Miroslav Škoro here, yet nothing was done.

"I bet you only see the positives in thieves, don't you?"

That post isn't just an insult toward Miroslav Škoro—it’s an indirect jab at me too, since I actually hold a positive view of this "thief."

And more importantly, why haven't you addressed the trolling being pulled by Zoran Oštrić in tandem with tratina 20? They were practically flirting/teasing each other—something I reported, and something I explicitly pointed out to you in my appeal...

I'm asking again. Why the double standards???

And while this is technically off-topic—though I'm taking the opportunity since I won't get it anywhere else—I have to ask: are you actually getting paid for this thankless moderator gig? Don't you feel even a little bit exploited by the owners of this forum?
Don't you think that moderating sensitive topics like politics and history should be left to professionals who can maintain actual ideological neutrality?

Now, I'll call upon rustydrifter10 to arbitrate—in the hopes that I won't be locked out before she can give her verdict and before I get a chance to reply to her.

Charles Fox10, you didn't even bother to react to this post—which, let’s be honest, is absolute bottom-of-the-barrel garbage—and it really makes me wonder what I, and the rest of us here, should actually think of you... specifically regarding your supposed "impartiality" when it comes to dispensing "justice" on this private forum, where everyone volunteers their time for purely humanitarian reasons just so the owner and his extended family can rake in their well-deserved profits.

Look at this:

"komutator says:
Hyenas are opportunists too, so they still play their part in the ecosystem.

The same goes for Škoro—a political coward and an opportunist—he has his role to play in the political arena. I don't judge him for it one bit."

Look, this was really just about a minor 10-point dispute, but you crossed the line, so now you're banned. It's better this way—prevents anyone from thinking you were hit with a direct ban for something more serious.

And let's be clear: we don't tolerate insults directed at public figures or people you simply happen to disagree with.

Charles Fox10 said:Look, we’re really talking about a measly 10 points here—nothing more than a tiny little technicality—but you pushed it just past the limit, and now you've been banned. I suppose that's how they do it... just to make sure nobody mistakenly thinks you were hit with a direct, intentional ban.

Look, let’s get one thing straight—we aren't going to sit here and hurl insults at public figures, nor are we going to attack people just because their opinions don't align with our own... there's a line, and we need to respect it.

That’s all well and good! But why on earth doesn't this rule apply to everyone else on the forums?...

I’ve pointed out several instances of outright insults and blatant trolling within this thread—yet somehow, I'm the only one facing any kind of consequences here... while everyone else gets a free pass. How exactly do you explain that?

Hardly worth deleting, let alone banning.

Charles Fox10 said:That isn't even worth a wipe, let alone a full scrub.

Are you actually kidding me right now? Is it really considered a bigger insult to call someone a "leftist" than it is to straight-up call them a thief and compare them to a hyena?

The logic on this forum is... well, it's bizarre, to say the least. Truly strange criteria at work here.

It’s perfectly clear that we aren't all playing on a level field in this thread—some people are definitely more "equal" than others—but honestly, after being presented with actual evidence, digging your heels in on a wrong decision is just classic behavior from those old-school systems where the ruling class was treated as infallible...

And rustydrifter10 just keeps sitting there in silence, because apparently, everything is fine as long as it benefits their own interests at everyone else's expense.

Jeffrey Adams said:And rustydrifter10 just keeps staying silent because she’s perfectly happy with how things are, even if it means everyone else gets screwed over.

Look, don't try to shift the blame here or play dumb. The real issue isn't some supposed "liberal agenda"—it's those bearded monkeys running the show.
