Moderation over there is very hands-free. ??? So nobody has a hand in governance there, but some have their dicks in governance? I don’t think that the chief mod Oz shirks and he is clearly a good guy. Comparatively, some others suck. I doubt anybody got off scot free, but I understand covers were blown and a few had their hands freely in it as being prone to sticking noses where they don’t belong when not busy, erm, seeking to getting blown or plunking in blown-up material.

SirBillybob Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) “… Oz doesn’t censor much … it’s usually at the best of his minions.” The above represents literally, semantically, that this Oz (moderator?) is ordered, is commanded by servile unimportant underlings. How does that even track? It perhaps tracks in the same vein as tittle-tattle that contains vast distortions. But bright clever fellows with good social media reputation rankings are inclined to deftly duck the canards of inveterate borderline gossips.

One of the best examples of coherent wordsmithing this year thus far. Who knew it would be embedded in a message board you essentially describe as being inconsequential, when it is yet of value by many. If it is so lacking in merit, then by extension the degree to which you are a person of consequence is … what now? Your call. You would impute to others the pressing need to maintain presence and status in social media entities you would label as trivial? And here you are lounging all over, trying to make a name, with non-boundaried off-kilter trivia hurtling south. One might say it was in the forecast. You could take a walk and try to get your better self functioning. Otherwise, I don’t detect any other desperados lurking about.

Higher average intelligence on this board. /// AFAIK, at the risk of oversimplifying, and through the lens of a critical thinker bystander peeking in on happenings, without prejudice, … an old Canuck geezer early 70s Robard, an extremely wealthy early 30s American mid-west physician surgeon also possessing an Ivy League doctorate in biological terrorism and with high level WHO status, and an early 50s District of Colombia - based Wall Street investment analyst / banker all walked into a bar. Their social media platform affiliations are, to say the least, fuzzy. These representations may be inaccurate and not reflect actual person(a)s. They are not incontrovertible descriptors. All likely seek happiness and meaning in their own fashion. None appreciates being walked all over; Human Nature freshman-level tutorial. Each within the triad diceygal, mississippmiss, and qcbitch oughta now just stay in their respective lanes. It should have all gone fairly well. Stuff happened, one or more is admonished to heal self, and a back-against-wall stalemate sitch appears to be the Season 1 outcome. The series should perhaps stream to the non-renew bin, but a few rapt fans seem wont to shovel lime on an entity long past life support merit. It is non-finance-able, not investment worthy. The plot is funny not funny. Some of the audience eschews drama loves drama. A few minor characters trying to break into showbiz, angling for spin-offs destined to face-plant. The writers strike has evidently yielded non-union scabs, struggling to coherently pull together various plot threads. They are advised to retire their tittle-tattle poison pens and seek shelter crawling under the rocks on which they appear to have been sun-struck. At least one individual has the actual plot down and may be consult-able on a case by case basis. The daft and misanthropic need not apply. Parenthetically, the silly old fart half-demented geezer has not been permanently exiled from any platform whatsoever. He has, however, it is rumoured, ceased applying for the thrills chills spills conferred by providers on the popular but dubiously lit oft illiterate site ÜberNutbars. He is likely not a fan of international relations and is better cognizant of the best contexts for useful experiential learning and external locus of positive experience of self. As one “thought leader” once put it: When it comes down to MSM platforms one is best advised to not trust anyone further than you can throw them.

SirBillybob Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Readers: there is no antipathy between the showrunners of the two message boards discussed. What does seem apparent is a small band of troublemakers using the existence of the two thematically similar boards to supplement non-salutary agendas centred on disparaging particular members. IMHO there should be at least some degree of mutual exclusivity between the two social media entities. Surely the array of pejorative texts and negative emoticons within each platform on its own should feed even the most insatiable of trolls, non?

What’s it to you other than opp for feeble burns, assisted death by a thousand obnoxious jibes. Full circle. Usually the first domino lies dormant. Usually. Somewhere over this rainbow, zero ungrounded bullying governance. Galloping around endlessly, vast supply of stink grenades like reverse ring toss off a stub. Hurl & run. Repeat. Stir cauldron. Run. Repeat. Illusions of puppet-mastery. Repeat. Scorched earth delusions. Repeat. Withhold the gravol. Repeat. I don’t know whether to puke or give in to a narcoleptic attack. Bad combo. And the doctor is out, of it. But nice try justifying bad behaviour and smoke-screening around the core problems that later cascaded from bad behaviour. Doesn’t distract from realization of your predominant trait. Your job is to zsuzz up a jackass and hope mere mortals don’t see the cracks. There there now, breathe … breathe. Find the emoticon.
