Yeah, some of that got a bit out of hand. Like, ok, he's a bit nutty and you might not agree with him (neither do I), but at least treat him like a human being with feelings.

EDIT: Ok, so mods apparently did do something about that. When it's all happening in PM's, it makes it seem like nobody cares. But broadly speaking I'd still like to suggest that forum members dial down the male chest puffing a bit and basically be a bit nicer and respect some boundaries without mods having to step in. It shouldn't be necessary, but yeah, I know how crap other forums can get. But some are also way less toxic...

"How can it be raining outside? I don't see or hear it in this windowless room so..."

For the same reasons?

You aren't seeing the point.

The **** is aloud to happen until merit responds. That's when mods start modding. That is why people see a bias.

That was a fantastic zinger tbf

So you're going to stick your heads up each other's asses and pretend like it doesn't happen for the sake of your own egos? I don't have a problem with it. I don't like merit, I think the bias is subtle and no where near as petty as it could be. You can't pretend like there isn't one though when multiple people, even some who don't like merit, have seen it.

Edit:

It was one of the most hilarious and also the most cruel ones I've seen in a while.

Tell me more.

Enjoy the context.

I might be speaking for myself here because I can't ascertain the amount of time other mods spend on the boards but a lot of the times this comes off the way you're seeing it because a moderator didn't see the exchanges until the damage has already been done. OH described himself perfectly as somebody who sits back and shoots a spitball and lets the rest unfold. Merit and Chula are dudes who will write novels about how they are right and NEVER let it go and unfortunately they're still actively trying to "win" the topic at hand when we step in. As I kind of told you before, if they just said "whatever" it wouldn't be an issue.

We're not biased. We're busy. We clean up. It's like Bats and OH start the food fight but Merit and Chula are the ones still throwing sh*t when the teachers show up. Who do you think is going to get reprimanded first? I always read from the beginning and talk to everybody involved. Ask Bats how many PM's I send him.

Stop thinking we live on this forum and see everything as it happens.

I have seen active mods on here while this goes down. Some unnamed ones that are even smack dab in the middle of it. That excuse doesn't fly.


Edit: In the case of Chula, I know I'm not supposed to talk about it because speculation on his mental health gets a faster response from mods than telling merit he's a bad father, but they are literally taking advantage of a mental illness to provoke a reaction.

Weird, it was like I was speaking for myself or something.
