...you just locked this thread on your own whim without even letting anyone respond...

And you went about doing it using nothing but lies...

The posts I mentioned were NOT sanctioned by you...


But now, suddenly, they’ve been wiped—if you try to open them, you get hit with an "administrator permission required" message...

Yet when I originally posted them, they sat there on the thread perfectly fine, WITHOUT A SINGLE STRIKE...

So, yeah, your little advice about reporting stuff is valid—it's as black as coal, really—because you aren't actually doing your jobs...

You just let the SAME provocateurs run wild for weeks on end... and then you go and tackle the cause and effect in the exact same messy way...

Generally speaking, I call all these trolls frustrated old ladies, forty-five years of age and bitter...

Then I get accused—without a single shred of actual logic—of defending Bleiburg or impeachments, thirty years old and clueless, even though it's blindingly obvious the only goal here is a personal attack and pure provocation...

Like that guy who swoops into a thread and calls me lazy just because he can't defend Karamarkov's incompetence—you don't sanction him either...

Basically, he jumps into a discussion and, without even mentioning the topic at hand, focuses entirely on attacking me...

And the moderators? Nothing...

Look, locking this previous thread and deleting links that I previously posted without issue—since they weren't flagged and were part of the conversation—doesn't just show how thin your arguments are... it shows you don't have any to begin with...

I get it, this forum isn't a full-time job and everyone has their own lives and responsibilities outside of this place...

But this idea that you always let those agitators ride free and then indiscriminately punish everyone else? That's a hard pill to swallow...

I don't have the authority to lock this thread myself. As for your other point, I'll say it again regarding : whether those posts—and many others—were handled via deletion, archiving, or outright bans, whether they’re still visible is anyone else's problem, not mine.

So, I’m finally opening my first thread here, which—funny enough—wasn't actually possible before this moment...

I mean, if my previous posts had really been deleted, I wouldn't be able to drop links in here... which is a bit of a giveaway, considering how those links just seem to vanish into thin air a few hours after being posted on the forum...

Basically, this whole "submit a report and wait" routine is a total joke...

Look, I get it. Nobody is getting paid for this; it’s just a hobby mixed with a massive, unpaid moderation headache...

But you can't keep treating people the same way when they're constantly being baited and insulted. You report a post, you wait, you watch absolutely nothing happen for days—which, by the way, just gives the trolls more fuel to keep barking—and then the second a person finally snaps and hits back, everyone gets slapped with the same punishment...


The bottom line is, you're sending all the wrong signals...

Check out this entertainment...

Fine, everyone loves to nitpick and count microscopic flaws—it’s easy enough to do that for the soul...

But seriously, how much longer can we deal with this?

How much longer is anyone who dares to disagree going to be branded as:

A radical leftist, a hardline Democrat, a nostalgic relic of the old regime, a supporter of failed hunts for political enemies, or just another fan of Documenta, Mirjana Mirt, Vesna Pusic, and the rest of that specific crowd...


When are people actually going to start treating these kinds of outbursts for what they really are?

And then, of course, these folks love to lecture us about "purging the system," fighting communism, and God knows what else...

In reality, personal defamation and ad hominem attacks are the very foundation of those old-school authoritarian tactics—and no, I'm not calling anyone a communist or an agent of the state, let's get that straight right now—but it's all about instilling fear so people stay quiet and too terrified to actually speak their minds...

Man, you reported it, the mods handled it, and that’s the end of it.

The posts being linked were all written today, with some coming in just minutes before this one. You can't really go after the moderators for not jumping on something within such a tiny window of time. As for those older threads, the moderator already gave you an answer, so there's no need to keep dragging the conversation back to them. You filed the report, it was moderated—case closed. Moving forward, if you want to bring something up here, please try to be polite and constructive, and only do so if there hasn't been a response to your report via the little triangle icon after at least 24 hours have passed.
