Raging Poodle!, What is the point in bringing all of Discovervancouver problems over here? I joined this site to get away from the trolls & haters on DiscoverVancouver... Now I seemed to encounter more and more dv trolls & haters over here on DiscoverSeattle, i was going to post more often, now I'm thinking differently.

And what's with "[a href="http://discoverseattle.net/forums/index.php/topic,4523.0.html"]DIE Raging Poodle" and other trolls, losers and haters[/a]" all this thread does is make DS look bad.


Raging Poodle!, I've blessed you, lol, maybe that will cheer you up.

BTW... I think the mods on Discovervancouver are doing a good job because without them DiscoverVancouver  would be a lot worse.


Ps:  Feel free to smite me now, lol

So, if DS starts to become more like DV, they'll have only one man to thank.  Maybe the advertisers should start paying the guy.  

Brit_Guy

Somehow i dont feel DS will become like DV
DV is slowly improving  

WS

DV is improving?  Then why is everyone here tonight?  

Brit_Guy

lol, I said slowly... they have still got a very long way to go.

I have no idea if any posts of yours were deleted. I have only your word to go on.
If you have a problem, take it up with the admin.
If you like, repost whatever has been deleted.
However, I should take this opportunity to point out that you have violated [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffbf"]Forum Rules 2 and 6.
[/FONT]Any further violations on your part will result in your being banned, and subsequent posts of yours  will be subject to deletion without warning.
Thank you, have a nice day.
tc .
 
 There's "forum rules"?!?!  What, pray tell, are they?

ForShure

Never mind, I went over to DV and I see the new rules are there for all to see, right above the "post new reply" or "cancel" buttons in the post/reply window:

   IMPORTANT: A hate/bias crime is a criminal offence. If you post something that is against the law and the police request your IP, it WILL be released to them. Please be careful about what you post as we've had several departments of the RCMP in our offices the past few weeks collecting information on offenders.

 YES, you would be out of line if you said that, because it's NONE of your damn business what I say where.



You don't like my messages pee bee? Well I have shocking news for: You truly don't NEED TO read them!



You don't HAVE TO click on every thread you see, you don't HAVE TO comment on every thing you click on, and it certainly isn't your job to be criticizing every topic you see. There's already one pest who does a very good job of it. And I don't need one more mosquito buzzing on the side of my ear.  



You don't like it? Move the hell on!



Amazing isn't it?



You can thank me for your enlightenment later. Just keep your jaws off my thread. Go play with your pitbulls.

 I don't believe I'm bringing DV's problems here, BG. Tonight DS was the only place where I could express myself without having my every message deleted.

 For the second time in the past few days I was targeted by a powertripping a**hole admin/mod: No matter what I said, even if I said "cotton candies are fluffy and sweet" it was getting deleted.

 As you can imagine it can be a frustrating experience to be put in that position. If you ask for an explanation, no one comes forward. All you see is some coward obsessed with hitting the delete button...

 Mind you, I don't play that game for very long. Usually if I see three messages getting deleted in a row, I stop posting.

 And that's exactly what I did tonight. However, I also wanted to be able to express myself. That's why I created this thread.

 So hope that answers your question.

 > I joined this site to get away from the trolls & haters on DiscoverVancouver...

 You can't completely get away from troll and haters. This site allows anonymous posting, so it's quite open to trolling and hateful comments. But yes, it's a somewhat more stable environment in the sense that you don't see the same powertripping and games you see on DV, over here.

 > Now I seemed to encounter more and more dv trolls & haters over here on DiscoverSeattle, i was going to post more often, now I'm thinking differently.

Just post what you like and see what happens.

 > And what's with "[A href="http://discoverseattle.net/forums/index.php/topic,4523.0.html"]DIE Raging Poodle" and other trolls, losers and haters[/A]" all this thread does is make DS look bad.

 That thread was my answer to haters. Like you, I saw an increase in hate messages so I created that thread to have them confine their comments to one thread alone, instead of having them spread all over the board.

 > Raging Poodle!, I've blessed you, lol, maybe that will cheer you up.

Thanks. I like round numbers. So I'll try to bring yours to the next round number.

 > BTW... I think the mods on Discovervancouver are doing a good job because without them DiscoverVancouver  would be a lot worse.

 For a while I thought the mod team was doing an OK job, but in the past couple of months that place has definitely degenerated. Currently they're playing exactly the same games the previous mod team was playing.

 Many people are unhappy.

 One of the mods has already quit due to all the strife and disagreements within the team itself.

 It's time for the whole team to change. DV is long overdue for an overhaul.

 Maybe with the new and public forum rules the mods can no longer be in disagreement over what rules to enforce and they will now lead by example, such as no more trolling under different names.

 I have very little to no faith in the current team. Once corruption takes a hold, it's extremely hard to uproot it.

 Once a mod realizes that they can pretty much get away with ANYTHING, including trolling under different names, unfairly deleting people's posts (simply because they just don't like the poster), but deliberately keeping all the hate messages about that poster etc. it's very hard to break their habits.

 They become ingrained.

 DV needs a new mod team and even more importantly, a system that'll hold them accountable for their actions.

 Once you remove accountability from the equation, that's when you open the path to corruption.

[/p]I gotta be frank here, I think there is something to what Brit_Guy said. The issues you're having on DV are being dragged over here, and that's fine as long as they don't tear this place to pieces, which unfortunately it seems like it's starting to do. If it was confined to a single thread, no biggie, but it's all over the place here and I'm guessing most people here aren't into that. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think so.



For the second time in the past few days I was targeted by a powertripping a**hole admin/mod: No matter what I said, even if I said "cotton candies are fluffy and sweet" it was getting deleted.

Well...then that's something you probably ought to take up with them. They're NOT going to alter what they do on DV because you post about it here, you know? And I don't thin people here really care all that much about the admin behavior on DV. How about letting some of this stuff go?

The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.
