Being a mod or admin is intolerable, and this community is at a high risk of dying

Let’s take a look at the thread after it was bumped.

The C-Word

[image] It was heading for obscurity until you decided to stick your oar and your strawmen in like a ■■■■■

The C-Word

How do I set something up to change certain words to ■■■■■

Neither was this one.

The C-Word

“And yet he hadn’t sense enough to take on a rich ■■■■ and get himself a change of underwear” Henry Miller Tropic Of Cancer

Or this one.

The C-Word

I’m pretty sure if you run a poll about use of the n word here approximately 0% want to see it, whereas ■■■■ has a rich literary history as my quote showed. “The sunken grey ■■■■ of the world” Joyce (about the sky). It’s just a pity you don’t extend your empathy for women’s feelings about a word to the disabled who might object to the sp*zz word.

I generally agree with this statement:

@Jalfrezi

I agree that the ■■■■■■ argument is probably a proxy for other deeper, apparently unresolved grievances itf that go back some way.

I think it applies to the pro c-word people and not just the anti side, as I assume jalfrezi sees it.

I also think you are misreading what sky said.

Skydiver: “Stop it.”
Jalfrezi “Stop what, exactly?”

@skydiver8

And of the things to stop, here are a few:

1. Following certain mods around and harassing them for something you think exists that doesn’t
2. Using the C-word because haha it’s my culture, snowflakes.
3. constantly bickering about it and AIDSing up the forum

As I pointed out early, she threatened to hand out bans for using the word in flagged posts. She never threatened to ban people for using it in unflagged posts. People don’t want an automatic ban for any use of the word. That doesn’t mean that all use of it should be allowed. It’s not some sort of “get out of jail free” card where any use of the C-word is alright and trumps rules against trolling or excessive forum drama.
