Where's his thread? About warning pts? Women and large Mammalia

 

[DaveC426913]

Indeed, it appears to have vanished.

 

[berkeman]

It's in Moderation (hidden) while the Mentors discuss it.

Still discussing?

 

[berkeman]

Yes. We now have a subcommittee working on it.

Top Men!

What happened to him? Is he banned? Did he leave? Or is he just busy and hasn't posted anything since?

 

[berkeman]

He's definitely not banned, just very unhappy right now. Our committee has not been able to contact him to discuss his complaint in more detail. He is so far not responding to our DMs and direct e-mails.

Hasn't responded to my PM either.a At least now I know it's not just me he's mad at.

My experience is similar to Fresh42's. In the short time I've been on PF, I've only posted two threads with my own questions.

It wasn't a positive experience, the threads were cancelled. When I tried to talk to someone appropriate, I noticed two things: 1- they didn't take me or my questions seriously, 2- the mods protect each other.

My reaction was along the lines of, "This has been a waste of time, delete everything that involves me and let's pretend I was never here..."

I simply let time pass, forced to do so by having been "sanctioned." I decided not to post any more threads with my own questions and to modify my communication style to be shorter and less assertive.


P.S: If anyone is expecting a positive moral at the end, there isn't one. That's all.

I was having a really bad day and my energy when replying to the warning thread was overboard. I regret it. I hope fresh returns. I take the blame.

To me, it would be nice to:

• Know who did whatever it was to my post (rare except for Berkeman)
• What was wrong with it.
• Sometimes I get a post removed and have no idea what it was because sometimes I make a lot of them.
• It would be nice to argue things (because I like to argue), but I can understand why this would be an considered an undesirable waste of time by the controllers.

I think some of these are among Fresh's issues.
The first two are the most important to me.

It's # 3 for me.
Sometimes I'll go back and remove my posts the day after, looking at it saying to myself; "You shouldn't post when your blood sugar is low."
But, before deleting, I'll copy and paste into my diary.
I do the same on Facebook and other social media platforms.
