The tyranny of "moderator" Baphomet is getting out of hand

This has officially gone too far. People complain on here and absolutely nothing changes. 👎 🙂

The guy has zero criteria. He just nukes posts whenever he feels like it and then calls them "off-topic." 👎

How exactly does this post not fit under the "What's your religion?" thread? ? 🙄

I'm speechless. 🙂

I forgot to mention that we already know exactly who’s pulling the strings here 🧐 🙂

As I have previously indicated in an earlier post, a discussion regarding this exact subject matter already exists.

😛

it’s not even just about him deleting stuff, he’s basically dragging us through the mud by tossing our posts into some kind of public shame bin, this supposed "archive" thing

I suppose it might be best to just stay out of it

William Reed said:It isn't just about deleting posts; they are moving them to a so-called "dumping ground" for our threads, which is nothing short of a public disgrace.

Look, calling it a disgrace is an exaggeration. It’s simply a dedicated chat thread created specifically to prevent other topical discussions from being cluttered with off-topic chatter.

If you feel insulted by this, then perhaps you should start posting content that actually aligns with the subject matter at hand. It is time to start acting like responsible adults instead of behaving like children.

Ryan Wilson2 said:Look, it’s not some huge public embarrassment, it’s just a side chat thread meant for off-topic banter so we don't clog up the main discussion with random noise.

If you guys are actually feeling embarrassed about it, then maybe just try sticking to the actual topic for once? I mean, seriously, let's try acting like adults instead of a bunch of middle schoolers running around a playground, I guess.

Wait, what part wasn't on topic though? 😕

Ryan Wilson2 is being a total drag again 😠

just lies, lies, and more lies

so what if there’s already a similar thread out there?

I mean, since I already know about that whole situation from the old thread, what's the big deal if I just drop a link to it in this new one? They're basically the same subject matter anyway, and it might actually help the discussion move along, right?

you're a terrible moderator, Ryan Wilson2 😠

William Reed said:So what if there’s already a similar thread?

Given that I’m already aware of that specific quiz from the previous discussion, where exactly is the issue with me linking it to this new thread? If the subject matter is essentially the same—which, frankly, they are—why shouldn't it be allowed if it adds value to the conversation?

The title of this thread is "What is your religion," not "Take this quiz if you don't know what your religion is."

If you truly cannot see the distinction there, then I am afraid there is nothing more I can do to help you.

Good grief, what a terrible moderator.

The pedagogy? Zero points.

As for creativity and entrepreneurship, they’re nowhere to be found either.

Wit? Absolutely no signal on that frequency.😬

And don't even get me started on tact.

But hey, I guess we didn't really deserve any better, did we?😳

Ryan Wilson2 said:The thread title is actually "what are your religious beliefs," not "take this quiz if you have no clue what you believe."

Man, if you can't see the distinction there, I honestly don't know how much more I can do for you.

but if you actually look at the first post, it says

What are your religious beliefs, what do you know about them,etc.....

🙄

you see that "etc."?

Plus, once you finish the "quiz" thing, there are a ton of links providing info on pretty much every faith out there.

😢

William Reed said:Do you see this part here?

The very definition of "itd" is just plain amateurish.

Ryan Wilson2 said:The whole definition thing is just whatever...

That’s just not true, honestly. When I used "etc.," I was thinking about the whole concept of "faith" and all that stuff we either know or don't know about them.
so, I went ahead and dropped a link to this super interesting little quiz, which I guess might actually help you read up on some of those religions you seem to be leaning toward😳

Jason Johnson4 said:God, what an incompetent moderator.

Pedagogy? Zero points.

As for inventiveness and entrepreneurship? Nowhere to be found.

Wit? Absolute zero signal.😬

Tact? Don't even get me started.

But I suppose we haven't exactly earned anything better, have we?😳

How am I supposed to handle this any other way when dealing with people like you, who seem to thrive on insults and fabricating data about me?

William Reed said:I went ahead and included a link to a highly engaging quiz, which should serve as a decent starting point if you actually want to learn something about the religions you seem so fond of.😳

The link I mentioned is part of the extensive discussion thread I already directed you all toward.

Ryan Wilson2 said:The link I mentioned earlier, which is basically its own entire thread I already pointed you toward.

But honestly, that other thread is just people bragging about their quiz scores, and I kind of hoped we could actually have a real, meaningful conversation for once this time around 😳

but whatever, if that's not your vibe, fine.

No biggie though, catch ya later.👋

Ryan Wilson2 said:How am I supposed to handle someone like you who just loves throwing insults around and making up stuff about me?

So, what, the reasons are just "private" now? 😉

And is it not an insult when you spend all your time sitting on the sidelines mocking people? 😉

And who exactly is his boss anyway... since I feel like having a little vent about this... just kick him out onto the street so he can finally learn how to act right when he's actually around decent people! 🙂 😁

Jason Johnson4 said:So, you're claiming the motives here are purely personal? 😉

Rest assured, I certainly didn't ban you based on your ethnicity or the color of your hair.

Ryan Wilson2 said:Well, I can tell you one thing for sure—I definitely didn't ban you because of your nationality or your hair color.

So, I guess it was just my massive chest? 🤣
