I'm fed up with Uncle Sam's tyranny!

Alright, check this out for yourselves.
They’re nuking every single thread I start! Seriously, take a look at the content—you'll see I'm not some troll just looking for attention. My posts actually make sense.
I'm honestly calling for a female moderator to step in and review this mess.
And yeah, I’m calling it what it is: pure bias.

The way you’re handling this thread you opened on Apple takes away any right you have to complain.

My first instinct was to just hand you a week-long ban right now, giving you seven days to cool off and learn how to communicate respectfully before you come back. But honestly? No. I’ll let you keep acting this way so when I finally hit you with a permanent ban, I won't feel a single shred of guilt about it.

My first thought was to just hit you with a week-long ban immediately—you know, give you seven days to chill out and learn how to talk like a normal person when you get back. But nah, I'll just let you keep being toxic so I can drop the permanent ban later without feeling even a tiny bit of guilt.

What "way of communicating" are we even talking about?
just ban me, but don't you dare close the thread!

so, is anyone here messing with my signature or what?

Lisa Martinez82 said:The way you’re handling this thread on LJES pretty much forfeits your right to complain.

My first thought was to just drop a week-long ban on you right now—give you seven days to chill out and learn how to talk like a decent human being before you come back. But honestly? Nah. I’ll just let you keep acting like this so when I finally hit you with a permanent ban, I won't feel even a shred of guilt about it.

And who exactly was I insulting???

Amy Long9 Asks:
I was reading through some old threads recently and stumbled upon this discussion about whether people actually care about local politics or if everyone is just tuned out. It’s funny how much can change in a few years, but honestly, most of us seem to stay exactly the same—just sitting around, watching the news, and wondering why nothing ever seems to move forward. I remember sitting in a coffee shop in Seattle a few years back, listening to a group of guys argue about the upcoming municipal elections, and it hit me that we all love to complain, but very few of us actually show up when it matters. It’s almost like we enjoy the drama of the debate more than the actual result.
Just take a look at the thread and you'll see that they aren't even trolling; they're actually being serious. Makes sense to me!

I’ve got this nagging feeling that I’m the only one actually noticing it.

You’ve really pushed the envelope with these topics lately, crossing just about every line of good taste there is. Honestly, you should probably be grateful people don't just close your threads the second they see your handle without even bothering to read them.
Honestly, I’ve lost count of how many times you've posted one of these supposedly "profound" threads.

Amy Long9 said:So there you go, judge for yourselves!
They’re shutting down every single thread I start! Take a good look at the content, because it's obvious I'm not just some troll posting nonsense!
I’m actually calling for a female moderator to step in and review this!
And yeah, I’m calling out the blatant chauvinism here!

Meanwhile, I'm over here complaining about how sky-high inflation is hitting the whole country...☕

...yet you have the nerve to call someone a chauvinist right after you claimed the "male brain" was an "absurd" concept☕, and honestly, you should be banned for that.

Amy Long9 said:Well, there you go—take a look for yourselves!
Every single thread I start gets shut down immediately! If you actually bother to read them, you’ll see I’m not just some troll—the posts are actually coherent and make sense!
I am honestly looking for a female moderator to step in and review this!
And frankly, I feel like there's a real bias going on here!

Sorry, Ljubicice, but those threads are just way too intense. They were all closed for good reason.

Ljubicice, I've totally got your back!

I think Daniel Ward87 and Deedy are pretty fair moderators. Nothing to complain about there. ☕

Scott Stewart6 said:I honestly think Daniel Ward87 and Deedy are pretty solid moderators, so I don't see any issue there.☕

Totally, especially Deedy... but here's the thing: the truth is Ljubici kept starting these super random, pointless threads, so now they just shut everything she posts down. If anyone else had started this latest thread, it probably would've stayed up without a hitch. But since it was her, they nuked it immediately—even though there are a million much dumber threads floating around than hers.

silverjackal said:especially Deedy... but honestly, the thing is, Ljubici was posting some pretty random stuff, so now they're just shutting her down every time. If anyone else had started this latest thread, it would've stayed up without a second thought. It's just because she opened it that it got closed. And there are way stupider, more mindless threads out there than hers...

The topics were pointless, nonsensical, and poorly phrased to begin with. 🤷

Just kind of a half-hearted attempt at trolling to get attention. ☕

Scott Stewart6 said:those threads were just pointless and totally lacked any real direction 🤷

kind of felt like half-trolling just to get eyes on them ☕

that last thread was actually fine☕☕there's way worse stuff out there that hasn't even been nuked yet☕☕

man, what a bunch of suck-ups☕🙄

silverjackal said:the last thread was fine☕☕there are plenty worse ones still open☕☕

what a bunch of suckups☕🙄

well, she had plenty of threads that didn't get closed immediately, but they ended up being total trolls anyway

what's your problem?

where's your proof? ☕

and does calling them "suckups" mean I'm next just because I backed the mods? 🙄

1) Like you can see from what I posted, I have absolutely zero reason to be anyone's sycophant.

2) I'm a woman, so there's no way I'd ever get behind chauvinism.

3) This whole topic is just stupid and pointless. Honestly, just get over it.

Oh sure, because everyone else here is just a beacon of pure logic and sense.☕ 🙄 🙄Let's be real—if anyone else had started this thread, it would still be standing...

I don't have a problem with the topic itself, I'm just pointing out how everyone is jumping on Ljubicici like she committed some massive crime. People are even threatening her with a permanent ban... honestly, it feels pretty unfair.🤷

silverjackal said:The last thread was totally fine☕☕there are way worse ones still open☕☕

Man, what a bunch of suckups.☕🙄

Not all of her threads are locked—take this one, for example. It makes sense, so it stays up. That pretty much kills the argument that people are out to get Amy Long9. Threads don't get shut down just because someone's unhappy; they get closed if they don't make sense or don't fit the specific board. The LJES subforum gets the most traffic, which brings in a huge crowd, but it also attracts people who think everything belongs there... which isn't how it works.

There are other boards for stuff like that. Like Random or Offtopic—but nope, better to dump it in LJES since that's where the crowd hangs out...🙄

silverjackal said:As if everything else out there is just a masterclass in logic and common sense...☕ 🙄 🙄Let's be real here—if anyone else had started this thread, it probably wouldn't have even survived the first day...

The whole "but Mom, everyone else is doing it" excuse? It’s pathetic and doesn't hold any water.

Daniel Ward87 said:Not all her threads are locked, take this one, for example. It actually makes sense, which means it’s still open—so you can't just claim she's hitting a dead end. Threads don't get shut down just because someone started them; they get closed when they stop making sense or don't fit the specific sub-forum. The UN section is our busiest spot and draws in a huge crowd, but that also brings in people who think absolutely everything belongs there... and that's just not how it works.

There are actual sections for stuff like that. It's miscellaneous or Off-topic—but nope, better to dump it in the UN section since "that's where the crew hangs out," right?🙄

Daniel Ward87

What do you mean it wasn't meaningful?? I'm honestly just curious, not trying to start a fight or anything, but what was missing from the thread? And if it was so bad, why didn't you just delete it immediately? You were even jumping in and replying yourself for a few posts. I really think if you'd given it a little more breathing room, it could have turned into something cool..
