Reply to Re: Okay, this is my blank post...
If you don't have an account, just leave the password field blank.
Did you actually read my post? And no, I am not deliberately trying to break nested mode, because I don't have my messages nested, and I prefer forum view... Maybe I am a little messed up, but, I prefer to have the posts reply off each other, and, if needing to reply off an earlier post, then at least cite it.
And anyway, what does the word accountability tell you? Striker obviously is not used to reading between the lines and finding the main idea in a written piece. MY main point was that I don't think that it is appropriate that staff can flame and spam all they want, but still hold others to a certain standard. I do not believe that these posts of mine should not have been deleted, just that there have been many kitsch posts by other people which don't get deleted, which brings to mind the idea that favoritism does take a role. You don't read an essay out of order, it just won't make sense, especially if it is well-written. I will not go as far as to say that Striker and Tal are bad readers, which is rather baseless, but they are indeed lazy ones. If you are selective about how you read and choose to only examine parts of the writing, you can, in fact, make it say anything you want. All people should be required to adhere to rules, because otherwise it really does look like you are playing favorites, whether or not you really are.
Perhaps it is because I don't speak in a layman's language that you can understand, or maybe it is because I am new, but it does seem that I am a bit of a staff punching bag. Know that I am quick to anger. I was of the opinion that the staff were supposedly supposed to be some sort of role model, but I find that I am completely wrong in believing this. All my life I have had to take shoot from people who tell me that I say what I say because I want attention. I am sick and tired of it. Do you honestly think that I believe that I should have of posted those posts which have been deleted? That is the great mistake you make because I don't. Obviously you do not know me, nor how mental I am. People have told me time and time again that I will never aspire to anything because I do not please others... If I have to lie rather than speak my mind to be an aspiration, I would rather live in infamy. Somewhere it seems to be written that you can lie, cheat, and steal all you want, but if you bother someone, then you might as well be dead. Where is the sense of morality?
I see great injustice here, as there are certain posters (I will not name them, they know who they are) that make people angry and complain and never get any of their posts deleted. In a real life situation it is sort of like the mayor and his cronies can commit any crime they dang well please, but if you look at them the wrong way, then they will lock you away. I will continue to protest how the boards are run until I see change, which may never happen. Again, just so you can understand, I believe that many of the posts of mine have had good reason to be such, but there are many posts that I see on the board that have an equally good reason for being deleted, but never do.
It is pretty obvious that as administrators, you have tried to mirror politicians, buying people's respect and shutting up those that might compromise your reelection. Well, guess what? You cannot shut out my opinion as hard as you try. I think that in an ideal situation, there would be no post deletion on the judgement of staff afflicted on the Dinkiverse, but rather that if staff recieved more than one complaint regarding a post, then it should be deleted...
We should have system, were if someone does not agree that a post should be valid, they can flag it as inappropriate. So this is my say in the matter. I do agree that posts must inevitably deleted at times, but I do not agree on the way it is regulated. It seems as though I not part of the "club", since many of my "informative" posts go unnoticed... my kitsch posts. appropriatly enough, get deleted. I figure, knowing the regulars here, that if anyone has made it this far into this post they have either skipped through parts, or are just looking at the conclusion. It is foolish, because I had many important things to say... I blame this carelessness on the degradation of the so-called youth culture, though their is nothing cultural or sophisticated about it.
