To the moderation team,

Prompted by a private message I received from moderator silvercyclist32,

as someone who has been a participant here for years—sometimes active, sometimes not—I want to draw your attention to certain irritating behaviors and the urgent need to re-evaluate the standards held by some of you...

Moderator silvercyclist32 sent me a PM where:

1. The message itself was written in a foreign language.

2. I am being accused of trolling. I would appreciate a translation of that accusation.

3. The content I am supposedly being judged for is a post in the social science
section regarding the topic: "The world's lingua franca."
I suppose I am "trolling"
simply because, to me, the American language is the most beautiful. It certainly isn't "trolling" for someone to express disgust toward it.

4. My text was a response to a post where one user—an icon of confusion
and someone who clearly finds my views repulsive—mocked my expression
of why I believe the American language is the best
in the world. Is such an opinion even allowed on this topic or on this forum?

I am asking you to stop punishing, deleting, or otherwise harassing
anything you fail to understand or anything that individuals who lack the capacity
to grasp it choose to target.

I have noticed that excessive penalties are handed out whenever something
doesn't suit someone's personal preferences, which usually stems from their own limited
knowledge. They use the almighty term "trolling" or, when deleting, "off-topic," as if it were the word "Amen" at the
end of a prayer. Something that very few people actually understand the meaning of (if they do at all),
but frankly, who cares.

Finally, I request that you create information pages and ensure that messages sent
to forum members are written in our official language.
Our official language is American.

🙏🙏🙏

1. That notification you received was an automated system message.
2. Your contribution qualifies as trolling because it constitutes "deliberate provocation intended to incite personal conflict."
3. i 4. Dominicus was issued a warning for trolling, and your retaliatory response was subsequently removed. An hour later, you attempted to repost the exact same trolling content, which resulted in a red card.

As for the wording used in these automated forum notifications, that is an issue beyond my jurisdiction; please direct any complaints or suggestions regarding them to the administrators.

Someday soon, we’re going to tell Americans that all software needs to be written in American instead of English.
Maybe they’ll actually learn something for once, which would probably do them some good.
