Nah nothing to do with Bruce in particular. Trying to behave like half decent human beings is arguably better (especially when discussing politics). I'd say the same to Bruce as well.

Please cite the examples in which you berated Bruce for his communication style.

Nothing to show. Sorry

I've long ago confessed to only disagreeing with the content. He has a fair idea what I think about it though - not sure he totally agrees.

That's weird, I guess threatening PMs and posting homophobic slurs are the mark of a half decent human being.

But massive lol at chez pretending his bull**** isn't driven nearly entirely by the "fiasco" he constantly refers to. Just a massive coincidence that he's always tone policing those calling racist posts racist.

I did address the pvn PMs in the ATF thread that later got deleted and you're just lying about it always being those calling posts racist. I've also long agreed that some of Bruce's posts were a problem, as does he of course.

None of that impacts whether or not it would be better if people tried to behave like decent human beings.

Decent human beings speak up when somebody is behaving badly and being racist.

Indeed.

No-ones perfect though. Certainly no-one here is close to perfect.

That really is a classic, but hey that's just what happens when girls trespass into the Super Logic He Man Woman Haterz Club.

Now if you guys could please get back to the child slave rape discussion, it would be appreciated.

No one claimed to be. Most of us somehow manage not to compare Mexicans to cockroaches though.

Still its a good idea to try to behave like a half decent human being.

Had Bruce followed this advice he'd probably still be posting.

Whatever you think of how he behaved and his style of saying it, it's in the nature of extremely heated situations for people to go OTT. I know I do at times despite trying not to and I'm naturally a pretty calm person.

The meaning of what he said has frequently been distorted by the tone and by the other people also being involved in the heated situation - we don't just speak in a worse tone when angry we also interpret worse.

Some of course just read whatever suits them.

Posters have to take responsibility for what they post and how they read others. He can't do much about how others were posting during that **** storm only how he was and had he exercised that great intellect it would have been apparent some other course of action was better.

Absolutely. Everyone takes responsibility for their own posts and actions. At least Bruce took some responsibility for his, not many others did.

Some better course of actions was available for Bruce as well as many of us but people don't tend to see that in very heated situations. Others seem to have no interest in the best course of action and just enjoy escalation for it's own sake.

This is a baldfaced lie and you know it.

OK? Great content free post as always Chez.

Best course of action was to call out Bruce for his racist posts and ask for demodding. PVN was especially measured and rational in his posts. Right or wrong, the site also didn't ban Bruce, which is what would have happened to a 100 post random.

Btw, how did we misinterpret the estrogen liberal butt buddy post? How about the post where Mat tells us that he insulted other mods after Mat asked him to STFU about it? Or how was the threatening PM to PVN misinterpreted?

Really who else did? I know Mat and I took a bit but not as much as Bruce.

It's a general point.

Not everything is about Bruce despite your obsession

PVN also made it clear in SMP that he didn't really give a **** about the racism he just wanted to demonstrate the **** thought processes at play in SMP. Hardly the words of an advocate.

In any case I'm not batting for anyone associated with the topic other than Mat who was put in an awful position.

I agree totally about Mat.
03-23-2015 , 09:15 AM
Yeah, Mat had to decide if a hysterical, tantrum-theowin racist should still be allowed to mod after threatening to dox a user and pissing off the over mods. Except the racist dip**** was good at math. Real moral dilemma there, def wouldn't want to have to be the one making that call.

Oh, so just more off topic nonsense from you. You know, what's known around here as the usual-usual

You're right it is somewhat off topic.

Not sure there's anything so bad about discussing general points that come up.
