From: Joshua Nightshade I'll have you know I suffer from Advanced Asperger's - Variant Tourettes Syndrome and this is a debilitating illness that effects one in five members of my immediate family.
Your insincerity on this issue is noted, MY GOOD WOMAN. I'm perfectly sincere, and quite possibly not YOUR good woman. I'm busy reading the thread that Walker pointed me to. I am still admiring that variation on the old "dancing banana" animated gif.

From: Alyx Sands
And what's with the people accusing each other of gay bashing anyway??? Gay bashing is for people with pea brains.
Crystal came to SLU and from her first post, started attacking people. Ultimately, she decided to bring Josh's sexuality into the matter and attack him on that level. She then said "well homophobia is not listed in the rule so it must be ok!" like a 5 year old. After behavior attracted the ire of many posters (as anti-gay comments go over like a lead balloon), she is now saying she is a lesbian. So what - it doesn't change anything except to make Crystal look even more foolish. BTW, the long time members of SL who returned to post here, myself included, did so in order to help have some say in the resmod process. The first time around, we had none, and that left us with Strife. The combination of his moderation, the closing of the General forum and the tying of forum behavior to in world suspensions was reason enough to look for somewhere else to post. Lack of posting here does not mean lack of involvement with SL, or that our opinions mean any less.

I was in turn attacked and had to defend myself against your buddys. As far as anti-gay remarks I didnt say anything that hasnt already been said on your 3rd party forums. I don't see you banning anyone else for using anti-gay words. oh thats because they are your buddys. Why dont you just make your forum invite only if you feel like you need to screen everyones opinion who posts there to make sure it fits in with the buddys.

It's just hard to understand what's going on if you DON'T know everything that happened on SLU before..... I never implied anyone's opinion is worth less because they don't post much, it was just something I found weird, that quite a few people suddenly said something on the topic after the original thread has been there for weeks and weeks. Unfortunately I found the tags at the top of this http://www.sluniverse.com/php/vb/showthread.php?t=2345 thread a real turn off. I do have an account with SLU, but that's the kind of name calling I can't stand. Sorry.

Sorry. Anyway, it's not like anyone's recruiting you or anyone else. If you're happy with the environment here at the defunct official forums, where the Lindens themselves don't even care enough to actually upgrade the forum software to protect the userbase from hacking attempts and have decided instead to just cripple functionality for almost a year, then by all means, nobody's forcing you to leave. Those who don't like it here, though, and have grown tired of being abused by the self-appointed hall monitor, have gone elsewhere. That doesn't mean we have to ask permission to come back and comment on something here though.

I always love the "MOMMY THEY DID IT TOO!!!" defense. It all comes down to intent, Crystal, and yours was clear. It is one thing for people who know each other and are comfortable with each other to joke with one another. It is another for someone to come in and make anti-gay remarks to someone because you are trying to hurt and attack them. If my forums are so horrible and uber exclusive and I ban anyone who disagrees, how is it that only four people have managed to be banned for anything other than spam or trying to circumvent a previous ban on another account? You were banned because you were disruptive from the word go, plain and simple. I know it is easier to claim bias, but that was just not the case.

I had not noticed the tags in question, and no one reported them. I have since removed them.

From: Crystal Jimenez FlipperPA Peregrine for Resmod! No way I'd ever take the job. Now the rest of your post was a rant about being banned from a third party private forum - I don't care about that. That is the forum owner's option - for any reason. He pays the bills, he does the upgrades, he moderates. Now, would you care to answer my question instead of going on a bizarre tangential rant, please? You're taking a vendetta from another private forum here to the SL community forums. As far as I know, their owners operate them independently of one another. Regards, -Flip

From: Alyx Sands What's the point of people who I haven't seen here for over half a year (or longer) to suddenly come out and start trolling? Please show me where I'm trolling? I'm simply supporting change to these forums - so those of us who loved them can come back. It is obvious to many of us that a drastic change in moderation is needed, and that change needs to be a move to consistent, even-handed moderation. Consider why you haven't seen much from so many of those who contributed so much to these forums during this time period. Really, think about it. You want to talk about a vendetta? See Crystal's posts - she still hasn't hit 100 total, yet she cares so much about these forums? I note that you have less than 1/3 my post count. And how do you know it has been a year and a half, with a join date of February, 2007? And FYI, my English side called Bristol home... and that's about the weakest excuse I've seen used on forums in a while. Regards, -Flip

So I guess since you started in 2003 your opinion matters way more. You win the internet.

All I said was experience leads to insight, and you have very little experience with the SL forums, by your own admission.

Whether you say "I joined in 2003 and my opinion matters more" or you say "you have very little experience with the SL forums" so your opinion DOESNT matter, doesnt make any difference. You are trying to say that I should not have an opinion based on what? Your opinon of how much I am involved with these forums?

That doesn't mean we have to ask permission to come back and comment on something here though. I was under the impression that tag thing was something done by the admin, not just a single poster. I never said I'm talking about someone's single post. Cristiano clarified that for me. If I stopped posting wherever there's one person I don't like I could as well go and shoot myself. And whoever said I was happy with everything around here??? That just wasn't the point. I never said "Ooh, I love what LL is doing with the forums"-why do you automatically assume I have such a black and white view? And you're being childish again. I said I wondered about why suddenly several people post something that hadn't said anything on that topic before-I never said you're not entitled to. Although I did wonder why YOU bothered posting after all the things you said on SC...and if you think this place is dead, why bother? @FlipperPA: the Bristol thing was something someone said in another thread as a lame excuse for why he was using too many swearwords. NOT my idea. And I did say I read up on that whole Crystal thing. And who said I meant you with the trolling? It was aimed at JoshUA's snide remarks and Crystal's posts. Next time I spell it out properly. It was just something no one understood without the SLU thread I think-people suddenly turning up and attacking each other.

You are trying to say that I should not have an opinion based on what? Your opinon of how much I am involved with these forums?  Your opinion is no less meaningful. However, your experience is relevant to whether or not you would be qualified to be a resmod, and based upon your complete lack of involvement in these forums for any sustained period, you don't have the experience to moderate. Perhaps a greeter?

Not that they're relevant to this discussion one iota but I'm curious how you seem to think anything I've said is any worse than anything else anyone else has ever said. I've been in SL longer than you have, apparently, and watched these forums be destroyed not by us but by the hall monitor. Recently Strife posted asking for suggestions and commentary about new resmods. While we're taking it humorously, we're still allowed to weigh in. That's why you're seeing a lot of people who have more or less stopped posting here after being driven away by the unmitigated abuse of the hall monitor coming back to speak up.

I could be someone's alt? No, seriously, I never said a year and a half. I said half a year, or more. I WAS judging from my own start date BECAUSE I didn't go and read up everything posted before that date. And why do you automatically assume I agree with Crystal??? Talk about putting words in someone's mouth....

From: Joshua Nightshade I'll have you know I suffer from Advanced Asperger's - Variant Tourettes Syndrome and this is a debilitating illness that effects one in five members of my immediate family.
Your insincerity on this issue is noted, MY GOOD WOMAN. Advanced Aspergers? Hey, I'm an Aspy and I've never heard of this, and Tourettes is not a variant of Aspergers, ass-pergers-wipe (oh, sorry, that must be my Tourettes coming out). And since when is having Aspergers an excuse for being an arse-perger?
