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

[(Anonymous)]

there’s no other unanswered threads tho?

[gaydzilla]

this thread was answered within a day and all other threads were tended to so i really fail to see what there is to complain about, especially considering it was the weekend and we have like, lives

"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

[gayvert]

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

[(Anonymous)]

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

[gayvert]

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

[(Anonymous)]

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

[gayvert]

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

[(Anonymous)]

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

[gayvert]

yes i understand it's frustrating to you guys which is why i said we'd be more clear in the future

[gaydzilla]

holding up a turnaround time of one day (again, during a weekend) as an unacceptable delay and picking two threads that weren't answered out of the many many many threads that were in this post is still not evidence that this post is somehow descending to the dogs and i'm tired of having "engaging in good faith" thrown in our faces like hounding us over the a turnaround time of, again, one day, during a weekend, is "engaging in good faith" on your end

it should be very clear that an effort is being made despite the fact that sometimes things get overlooked or go unresolved, especially considering this is a volunteer position for a fandom anon community and not an actual job

adjust your expectations

[(Anonymous)]

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

[gaydzilla]

a) being frank isn't the same as being rude or condescending. being told something you don't want to hear in a blunt manner is also not the same as being rude or condescending.
b) not being willing to extend basic consideration or respect to other people but expecting it from them anyway is in fact what i'd consider rude and condescending. weaponizing the concept of "good faith" is the exact opposite of good faith.
c) again, literally every single thread in this post has been tended to, despite the one you linked which i asked twice about but wasn't able to receive information on and therefore didn't have anything to follow up with. i can't do anything about that and if there had still not been a resolution after a week i would have said so.
