How's Everyone Feeling Right Meow?
RE: How's Everyone Feeling Right Meow?
Lol right!

Speedbumps are aimed at everyone, that's the whole point of them. If we have a problem with a particular member, we will contact them in private. We don't attempt to shame them in public.

No one was censored here, and no one received as much as a verbal warning. If we had a problem with Rocket, we'd have contacted him by PM. I don't know why he thinks this speedbump is any different from every single other one we use.

He's throwing around accusations of general staff bias, without providing any evidence, and hasn't brought it up before. What are we supposed to do with that? I have no idea what he's talking about. If I wasn't happy with how the staff run things, I wouldn't continue to be on the team.

If we make a bad decision, we own up and do our best to put it right. But this was standard procedure, and one person decided to take the general statement upon themselves. We didn't "let" the troll say things. We don't watch every single post as it comes up, even I'm not on here enough to do that! Neither did we censor or target what he said. When a staff member realised there was a problem in the thread, he dropped a speedbump. Simple as that.

I don't know what more I can say. If he insists on drawing meaning other than what is written and what is explained, there's not much we can do. If he accuses us of stuff without any evidence, again, nothing we can do.

I also want to add that no one except the staff and the members concerned are aware of PM warnings sent. So accusations about how often we take action against certain groups of people is pure guesswork.

Well clearly I was living under a rock the whole time, this is the first I've heard of it

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."

Yeah, I slept through the whole thing and have been playing catchup all day.

Dibs on the name!

Congratulations, hope everything goes well during the next nine months or so (oh and the next 25 years after that).

Incredibly pleased with myself.

The surgery on Friday went without a hitch. No complications, nothing.

I left the OR with a huge grin on my face (apparently).

I was just thinking, with the meow in the title, we should all respond how we are feeling with a cat meme.

Fuck yeah! I didn't want to ask in case it went bad. I'm happy for you. And the kid, of course. Wink
