Reply to Re: Okay, this is my blank post...
If you don't have an account, just leave the password field blank.
As I noted in my post, I didn't take the time to fully read your message, and with good reason... another excessively verbose and meandering post about your feelings of persecution is not exactly something that have much interest in reading. In the future, I would suggest either less whining or to make the complaint more succinct.
Also, if you took the time to "read between the lines" of my own post, you'd see that I did actually address most of your points. I said "it looked like you tried to break nested mode"... not that it was your intent.
First of all, as I said... not every staff member has the same standards. There have been several posts that, due to our differing opinions, have been deleted, undeleted, deleted, and undeleted yet again. Inconsistencies happen. It's not perfect, but it's quick and flexible, but limited enough with the safeguards redink1 has in place. Even with the points you've made, I see no necessary reason to change it.
I'm sorry you feel persecuted, but you generally provoke it. As I believe it says in the random quotes (or something similar): "The DN is a benevolent dictatorship." We're not a government, we can't actually do anything to you and therefore, it's really not that big of deal.
Secondly, I would never post anything I would delete. I'm usually more lenient on flames... especially if they're well thought-out. From my experience, other members can be a bit more strict. There have even had times when a staff member's posts have been deleted due to excessive flames. I'm kind of curious as to where all the spam and flames you claim are from staff members are located. If you were to point these out, it might lend credence to your argument.
Oh, and don't worry, we have actually noticed your informative posts and they are appreciated.
