Merwan, you've been around a long time, so you should know better. We have always encouraged ALL feedback about ANYTHING to do with SL. The website or SL itself. Say something sucks, or a feature is broken, or that a client update is lousy...that's fine.

Start focusing on people with personal attacks...or attacks on groups of people.....that's not fine.


Pathfinder it would have been helpful if you included my complete quote above. I also said I was wondering.

Yes I've been around awhile and have my own experience with LL corporate. IMHO, you're over-reacting. But I also appreciate your doing the best you can with a nearly impossible situation here on the forums.

I think Jeska and Pathfinder do a great job at a completely thankless task.

Me too Chip! And I've stated that before, as have you.

No, it's not. And I'm going to do my best to stop any nonsense like that.


Thanks for saying that, Pathfinder, but it is a little late.

I would suggest hiring an intern to delete the thousands attacks made in reference to me.

A couple of months ago, someone declared me FIC publically in the forums. I will find the post if you require it.

Since then, the same person has spent countless hours (molesting the the english language) attacking the FIC.

When can I expect to see my name cleared?

(I do not expect this of course. I expect to see other threads remaining unlocked).

Yup. Personally I think they dont go far enough. Those stupid threads need to be deleted shortly after they begin, not 150 pages thereafter. :)

I agree panda, once it's all stopped, then the bias can be dispelled. It remains unchecked as of late.

Normally Chip, I tend agree with you and your posts. This time not.

Some posters get away with blanket attacks and sweeping accusations, while others are censored for the same thing.

Doing the same thing does not make it right, but censoring one, and not the other is wrong.

Possibly some are missing Pathfinder's point for deleting the thread. It was the complaining about the profiles on the SL web page.

From: Pathfinder Linden
"But to start picking apart individual residents who are mentioned on the website, and having it devolve into personal attacks on those individuals, THAT'S not appropriate."

In other words, Prokofy & Co. were denigrating people highlighted there, hence the deletion.

I for one am glad that it was deleted. It was a dodgy premise, as was the horribly improper definition of the word "speculator", which completely ignored it's true economic context.

These forums are getting to the point where the majority of stuff is interpersonal conflicts, "us vs. them", and people bitching at LL because they're having a bad day (life?). I don't blame LL one bit for taking a harder line. They tried to take the light handed approach, only to have the same old shit erupt over and over again.

If you are bothered by something about SL, make a thread, let people discuss it. Argue vehemently if you must. However, if you don't feel the thread went your way, too bad. Don't continue to beat on the same damned dead horse issue forever. It only causes damage to new players perception of ALL of us, and is akin to spam.

Same for you NOLAN, destroyer of worlds, lord of the nasherati!

Aww damn. Does this mean the FICWF match between "The Exposer" and "The Asswipe" is off? :(










:p

Thanks for clarifying, you vegetation eating, ursine mammal!

On a semi-serious note, I realized what you were speaking of Pandaman! Some folks were weighing in on the deletion aspect, hence my post. :)

Someone asked the other day (I don't recall where in the forums) about Pathfinder and his recent absence from the forums.

He's back. :)

Neologism is the ironic forte of either the highly intelligent or the terminally illiterate. As a general rule, the difference is that the terminally illiterate try more often, with less technique, and more out of venom than interest in vernacular.


You are not including the most often cited example of Neologism generation, "Word Salad" exemplified in the mentally ill. I think this is an obvious ploy on your part (as part of the Non-mentally illati) to belittle the mentally ill and their right to exist in this forum. The mentally ill have so few true accomplishments, don't take neologisms away from them.

PERZONAL A77ACK!

I am not trying to bash Pathfinder. He seems to be emotionally involved, which I appreciate and respect.

However, by caring so much, I think he is setting the wrong precedent. That happens with passionate people.

I mean look at Nolan, and how he constantly comes on to me in the forums!

Yeah, that someone also praises or condemns Pathfinder, depending on which way his decisions fall. Today that person is talking out both sides of their mouth, first praising Pathfinder for deleting a thread, then using the closing of a thread to reason that the "FIC" must exist, or else that thread would not have been closed, as if it was a subversive attempt by Pathfinder to cover up the supposed existence of the "FIC".

They also assumed that Pathfinder, as a new Linden, had been relegated to moderation duty, as if it were menial. An insultive assumption to say the least. This is the same person who is trying to insinuate that Robin is being slowly shoved out LL's door because she was moved from Marketing. What a terrible, self-imposed nightmare it must be to live a life like that, where every single action must have ulterior motives.
