R&D again

Alex Barnes8 said:Then maybe you aren't looking closely enough.☕

Nah, none of your posts from this thread have been deleted. Not even one.

I’m not even talking about this thread. I mean the other one where my posts were being wiped for absolutely no reason. It was pretty senseless. There wasn't any actual provocation. No insults, no trolling—whatever you call it when you run out of things to say—and nothing off-topic. If anything was off-topic, it was barely more than what people whose posts stayed up were doing.

Alex Barnes8 said:By the way, this PDF is basically a record of how quickly threads get killed the second they go live. Based on what some users are saying, there were times when admins actually did their jobs and dealt with appeals.
Maybe the current ones don't even know what that means. They just act entitled and push through. They close the thread and hand out bans to anyone who tries to complain.🙄

I didn't even see the report until the following day, so I didn't touch those two posts—honestly, I have no idea if anyone else caught them before I did. You keep attacking Precious, calling her hypocritical because she vaccinates her child while advocating against it, yet you completely ignore her explanations. You just loop back to the exact same question over and over, refusing to acknowledge the answer provided. That is the only reason this is happening. Neither of them were penalized for the same reason. Furthermore, that response from PreciousX was pure off-topic mockery and had absolutely nothing to do with the actual subject at hand.
I didn't even catch the second post... but honestly, I’d still give you a strike just for being off-topic and acting out.

Thread locked. Which one are we talking about?
The moderator shut down one of those pregnancy threads for a few days just to let things cool off and clean up the mess. Honestly, I can't blame him; the discussions over on that certain site just spin in circles with nothing but insults flying everywhere. I don't know of any other forum that actually handles it like that.

This disorganized mess you wrote here doesn't have anything to do with me. I don't know if quoting the wrong person was an accident or intentional, but since you quoted me, I guess I'll respond.

1. I have no idea which two posts you mean.
Only one of my posts actually got flagged on this thread, though way more were deleted. Whatever got flagged was so nonsensical people were laughing at it. And the crazy amount of deletions was just rude and disgusting, honestly. So those two posts probably aren't mine.🤷

2. I never called PreciousX a hypocrite for vaccinating her child while preaching against it... or anything like that. A different user was doing that more than others, and some others less so... I know what I wrote, so please don't put words in my mouth.

3. As for "ignoring her explanations, repeating the same thing, ignoring answers"... that wasn't me either. 🤣 Just to point out, PreciousX's explanations basically boil down to calling us stupid sheep who won't use our brains... so maybe ignoring them wasn't such a loss.

4. My interaction with PreciousX was strictly this: her attacking me (lying and being rude), and my response. It was never the other way around. Are you trying to tell me I shouldn't defend myself? That I should just stay quiet and let her insult and attack me whenever she wants?
Maybe I wouldn't have to respond if the moderators actually did their jobs. Since I'm forced to defend myself and deal with her, I feel entitled to hit back. Or do you somehow think otherwise?

5. I didn't call her a troll. Someone else said that. But of course, you'd rather paint me as the bad guy.

6. I wasn't talking about the Kindle moderator closing threads, but the ones on the main board.
Regarding closing the anti-vax thread, I have nothing against it. I was actually the first one to say that thread shouldn't even be there. And I explained why. Especially when the main voices there are just homeopaths.

Malalola said you were.🤷 Maybe explain it to her then.🙄

I assume this was meant for me, so I'll take a swing at it.

- Yeah, I call out Precious for being a hypocrite because she vaccinated her own child *after* spending a lifetime gathering "anti-vax" info, yet here she is on the forum encouraging moms to skip shots. If you can handle basic math, the conclusion is pretty obvious. She constantly claims she's been studying vaccination for YEARS, but her kid is, if I recall correctly (and I definitely do ☕), barely over TWO years old. So, let's look at the math:

SEVERAL YEARS
- 2 YEARS
_________________
= figure it out yourself ☕

- Which answer of hers did I ignore? She has NEVER actually answered that question, which you can easily verify by scrolling through the threads. ☕

- Sure, I mocked her. But she mocks everyone else, and apparently, her posts don't count... so you're talking nonsense.

- And why hasn't she been flagged for being off-topic?

- As for the "liking" thing—I haven't called anyone names, so why weren't Precious and Truth slapped with warnings for calling forum members sheep, fanatics, pigs, or whatever other garbage they throw around?

That "what do you think about information that casts a negative light on vaccines" thread is closed, and as a mod on Kindle, you really should know that. ☕
Either way, maybe MalaLola just makes her own rules. 🤔

The quote I sent to Alex Barnes8 was regarding the closing of threads—not specifically this one, I just forgot to include the quotes under the section referring to David Foster8's post.

I didn't close this thread... Malalola was cleaning things up, so maybe she did it... there wasn't any notice left, so I have no clue either.

Alex Barnes8, I didn't smear you at all. It honestly doesn't matter who called whom what... I simply said that if anyone were calling people names like that, I’d hand out a ban.

And get this: there are five of us here. We aren't the Borg; we don't share a single hive mind or think in unison, and we don't automatically jump to conclusions just because someone else does something.

David Foster80 This forum exists so everyone can share their own perspective... Precious believes vaccines are harmful and wants others to see the other side of the story so they can make up their own minds.
Please, go ahead and quote the specific post where you ask which vaccines her child received or if she follows the standard schedule.
You immediately lash out and start ranting about something you don't even fully understand, which is exactly what triggers her reaction. Her posts—which honestly deserve a ban just like the one mentioned in the first post—are nothing more than responses to your provocations. The rest of her comments don't insult anyone or belittle anyone; she’s simply sharing what she thinks people ought to know, and those posts are perfectly fine. Even when responding to your questions (which, granted, are phrased nicely), she remains polite. Unless I somehow missed her posts where she's actually attacking you first...

There you have it—an explanation for why this thread has been closed.
