it's been days since you guys replied to anything and even then you only replied to this one thread

i thought ip logging was specifically supposed to stop such delays

there’s no other unanswered threads tho?

"i'll ask" and nothing else isn't a resolution

https://w4wmods.dreamwidth.org/3198.html?thread=732286#cmt732286

replying twice and ignoring further questions isn't either

if you guys are going to do one or two answers (or not even an answer, just "i'll ask" and nothing else) and then ignore everything else ppl are saying then this is identical to the problems that were happening in the meta thread

nobody said you couldn't have lives, good to see that assurance that ip logging would let you guys "engage in good faith" was spot on

i didn't answer that nona because i felt that i really shouldn't have to outline that random ot c/p doesn't belong in a fandom comm and didn't want an argument which imo, they were angling for. if i was mistaken then i'm sorry

those are two threads, out of all the one's we've answered which isn't nearly the same as what happened in the metathread

but you understand how just not replying is leaving it open ended, right

[personal profile] gayvert 2018-06-04 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
yes, but at the time i really felt like i shouldn't need to explain why random c/p about skyscrapers doesn't belong on a fandom comm

we have c/p about all kinds of random stuff that isn't strictly fandom and you guys were straight up calling math a fandom at one point, can you blame anyone for not understanding what the line is when the line has never been consistent to begin with

[personal profile] gayvert 2018-06-04 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
imo, there's a difference between "math is a fandom" in the context of talking about how you like academia/studying/famous mathmeticians even and just c/ping a random article about skyscrapers

we'll try to be clearer but as a rule of thumb if it's just a random contextless article unrelated to fandom it'll be deleted. i don't want to have strict what is or what isn't ot debates because we've already done that and it was pointless, tedious, and mostly up to mod discretion

k but this is literally the problem with the lack of mod communication, you guys decide which is an issue worth addressing and it takes two or three people to make it clear that the rules really do need some explaining, can you get how that's frustrating

[personal profile] gayvert 2018-06-05 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
yes i understand it's frustrating to you guys which is why i said we'd be more clear in the future

if you're tired of having "engaging in good faith" """thrown in your face""" maybe you should stop making so many condescending replies and actually treat people like you respect them instead of using the mod post and ip logging as an assurance that you can be rude and nobody will say anything

if my expectations that comments left by nonas will actually be responded to and you guys will actually follow up on your "i'll check it out" comments are off base i'll adjust them, thanks for letting me know
