Riverman agreed with the post but didn’t hide it, generating a message to Johnny about his problematic post
Johnny choose the PM the poster option on this and wrote a reply to jman, who then thinks that Johnny knows he reported the post because I told Johnny.
jman replies in the report post PM thread, asking if Riverman hid the post and if Senor Keed unhid it
I see this and laugh, then PM Johnny saying that jman thinks I unhid your post, lol, it was never hidden, right?
Then Jman accuses me of sharing that he reported the post, which I didn’t, but I did PM Johnny telling him that jman accused me of unhiding the post and confirming that it was never hidden.
Is there any rule that says that mods shouldn’t reveal who flagged which posts? Should there be? Or should it be fair game for mods to reveal who is being ridiculous about flagging posts?
They probably shouldn’t in general, but I think here it’s not an issue.
After flagging the post, Jman decided to troll Keeed in the PM by claiming that Keeed had unhidden the post. I think once you start trolling mods in PMs, you lose any expectation that the mod has to keep those PMs private.
Now that I’m back from my temp ban for trolling, I want to complement the mods for a great job diffusing things yesterday. In particular, I want to thank @anon10396289 for banning me. Well done sir! I’m also giving myself right at this very moment a firm pat on the back for taking it so well! Kudos all around.
