Looking for some banter in politics

Until we can actually have a democratic discussion over on the Politics sub, and until that whole moderator crew stops acting like little dictators and ends their little reign of terror... I think I'm officially done posting there. Thanks anyway. ☕

Stop playing the victim. If you don't want to hang out in this sub, then just don't show up. Honestly, that makes way more sense than begging for favors from the very mods you claim to hate and say you're leaving over.

I don't really post very often—honestly, I tend to self-censor quite a bit just to be safe... you know, to avoid any potential drama or misunderstandings. I won't be missing you guys too much, and I'm sure you won't miss me either, right? ☕

It isn’t even about whether we’re going to miss you. It’s just bizarre that you’re actually asking for moderator intervention from the very same people whose decisions drive you crazy enough to want to leave in the first place.

Bradley Sanders4 is right, Morgan Rodriguez57. Don't go acting like some welfare queen trying to score a promotion; earn it by actually putting in the work on your reports.

Just put it in your signature that you're gunning for a raise, so people reading this have some context before they start coming at you. 🙂

tor tor tor!

As a general rule, there are no partial removals upon request. Frankly, there is little point in even asking, as it is widely expected that you will change your mind down the road and eventually demand its removal simply because it was posted at your own discretion. Therefore, if everything is truly under your control, perhaps exercise some self-control and refrain from posting on Politics.

Rules are rules, I guess. Don't you worry—I'm not about to change my mind while the stars are aligned like this... honestly, I've had quite enough of all that constant drama lately.

Well, if you had stated that you were waiving your right to request the removal of partials, I might have actually considered supporting your petition (which is precisely why that clause was included in the rules in the first place). As it stands? I won't.

I’m officially stepping away from writing for Politics. Honestly, I'm happy to... anyway, thanks for the funny card, by the way. 👍

There’s no need to bring this up in Politics; I wasn't asking you to do that. My point was simply that upon receiving the partial payment, one should waive the right to request a removal by acknowledging that the initial setup was made at their own request.

But honestly, never mind. It’s already been settled.

I need to correct my colleague here—partials can be issued upon request, but they aren't revoked just because someone asks. Once a partial is granted that way, it's permanent; it doesn't just disappear because a user changes their mind.

Nica will provide it for you.

I'd kindly ask you to watch your tone, regardless of where the conversation is happening...

Busta has finally conceded on the requested criteria—specifically, that they cannot seek dismissal based on the fact that the motion was filed upon request, so I find myself in agreement with the demand.
