Thread Name: Mudcat - changes in style and profile
Subject: RE: Mudcat - changes in style and profile
Musket, the point you continually miss is that YOU keep bringing up the subject. Ake has a political/religious belief that most of us don't agree with, but he isn't preaching, you bring up this topic to turn the community gaze on this one political position in order to ridicule and try to drive him out. There are many other unpopular positions that members have expressed over the years, stated as beliefs and the topic moved on. But you, one or two or three Muskets, are rabble rousing and continually starting fights by bringing up the topic at every turn and insulting Ake until he feels the need to respond to defend himself. Your white-sheet moral indignation does not mean you are a better member of mudcat - to the contrary - you are one of the reasons Mudcat has become a laughingstock to members we would like to see here more often.
This behavior is a form of stalking. It's ugly and gets lots of threads closed. It is entirely predictable - we know that pretty soon you're going to find an opening in which to thrust your campaign to supposedly make it clear to the world at large that most of mudcat doesn't hold the same views that Ake holds. FINE. THE WORLD GETS THAT. I don't have to worry about reading this stuff I don't like coming from Ake, I get sick to death of reading about the opinions that Ake holds from you.
Stalker posts are frequently deleted by all of the moderators. It's like playing whack-a-mole around here when indignant fighters keep posting and reposting the same remarks, not only insulting the other member but now challenging moderators to leave the insults in place because it is your right to free speech. You usually earn the thread a quick trip to purgatory with this action - does it raise your endorphin level to continually take a piss in the threads here? Another one closed - do you make a notch on your computer case?
This thread is now in BS. Let's see how long it manages to stay open.
