Seriously?

This is so dumb.

If I make an off-topic post in an off-topic thread am I not therefore on topic?

Seriously, why do the mods get their panties in a bunch over adult humour (much of it quite juvenile, actually)? I've never come across a forum as over-moderated as this. Don't we pleb posters have any say in what goes on? Unless people are threatening to tear each other's gizzards out why not leave well alone? I can understand trying to keep threads in the Blu-ray section on topic, but here that surely defeats the point. Why not ask the people who actually post in these forums what they want? The frequency of censored/deleted posts, closed threads, and suspensions/bans handed down has gotten out of hand. Maybe it's about time we elected some new mods?

Or some mods need to re-evaluate their role and take a look at the bigger picture. I am going to stop talking now because I am on good terms here.

Just a little observation from your post, There is nothing wrong with the Moderation at all

It is the posting & how it is posted ~ You are so far from what really goes on that you have no clue

That is just my 2 cts.

Right... So I'm clueless and the moderation is A-OK?

Thinking about how I can't register for classes till late November so I might not be able to get the classes I need to go for a psychology major. Definitely need to talk to an academic advisor, if I can I'd prefer to take some of these classes in the summer so I don't have to take 16 credits a term just to finish in 4 years. Then there's the work to get a master's degree and an externship as well, yeesh. Not to mention I will have to take out a student loan for all of this and I need to figure out how to make it all work with a 40 hour work schedule and 5 weekly 1 hour trips to the gym.

Scarriere · 08-09-2016, 08:05 AM

It seems like I've missed some crazy shit. Again.

I am pretty happy that another of my sisters has come up.

Markgway · 08-10-2016, 03:29 PM

Maybe you're just a bully?

,deeii · 08-10-2016, 04:55 PM

One more day at work and then I'll be off for a little over 2 weeks. Flying to Bali, Indonesia on Friday.

Scarriere · 08-10-2016, 05:11 PM

My comment was a bit much, thanks for making me aware of that.
No, I've never been a bully or accused of it either.
Hopefully my sister's boyfriend becomes more of a Gentleman sometime soon.

Wondering why the UO chat thread keeps getting locked for no reason.

Because the regulars in it have too much fun. Can't have that now, can we?

I posted once in that thread a long time ago, but I pop in just to read what people are saying. It seems completely harmless to me. Mods are probably on a power trip. Every single forum on the Internet has at least one who thinks he's almighty.

I'm expecting a suspension at any moment just for speaking my mind.
