I don't pay for .world nor it's micromanaging moderators and admins. Never have, never would for such a place.
Next time I get a bit of extra cash I will donate to my instance however.
And if you're posting there and bitching about it, that's your problem, not .world's.
No one is forcing you to post there and no one is under any obligation to do what you want in terms of server rules. Sorry, .world is not there to cater to you or anyone else in specific. If your instance has different rules, post there and don't bitch about the ones in .world.
And no one is forcing you to reply. We will post wherever we want, and bitch about whatever we want, anywhere we want. You seem to feel like you actually are .world, so go ahead and ban everyone who doesn't bow down to arbitrary garbage. No wonder no one ever has anything positive to say about you squid, it sucks to suck. Be better.
I see, so you can post and bitch whenever you want, but I'm not allowed to.
Why am I different?
And if I'm not different, why are you complaining about me bitching about what I want?
Who says you're not allowed to? Regular users don't have the ability to ban you. But you have the ability to ban users, an ability you abuse regularly with what looks like a pitiable "I am the king of .world" god complex. It's sad that you seem to lack the bandwidth to understand how you as a mod are different to regular users. But it explains a lot.
So I have a "god complex," but I also have more power than regular users and that makes me different from them.
That seems contradictory.
But please do find an example within, say, the last month where I banned someone for doing anything other than violating stated rules in the sidebar or Lemmy ToS. Go for it. This will be like the guy in another thread yesterday who claimed repeatedly that I'm a Zionist and when I asked them to find one single comment where I said anything where I supported Israel they said they were done talking to me.
So good luck proving your lie too.
Also, you sure implied I wasn't allowed to bitch. Did you forget your last comment?
Isn't it odd how people in random threads repeatedly seem to not like you, because of your moderating? To a degree that your name pops up anytime someone wants an example of a shitty mod? If everyone you meet is an asshole, perhaps you're the asshole? But no, it's not you that's out of touch, it's the children who are wrong.
I see. You have no evidence for your lie, so you've moved on to insults.
Incidentally, all you are doing is punching down on someone who is already aware that he's a horrible person and far inferior to you and most other people and has been aware of it his entire life, but keep doing it if it makes you feel better. Don't worry, I'm going to be dead in four years anyway if it all works out.
Hey, if you truly are terminally ill in some way, I'm very sorry for that. But also, it's shameful to retreat and hide behind "I'm gonna die in four years, so you're a bad person for calling me out on my bullshit" after you've been chastising people everywhere. Being terminally ill doesn't give people a cart blanche to act in any way they want and not get called out for it. If the discourse on Lemmy is too much, you could also stop being a mod, stop acting holier than thou, or stop using Lemmy altogether and enjoy your time offline. Here, you're not a terminally ill person, you're flying squid the mod. If you can't take the heat, you should consider getting out of the kitchen instead of crying foul when you get called out.
You're not a bad person for calling me out. I deserve it.
What I don't deserve is you lying about me. There is no need when I'm already inferior to you in almost every possible way.
Also, I don't believe for a minute that you're sorry. Not when you've made your hatred for me very clear.
Nah, I don't hate you, you're not significant enough to me to hate. And whether you want to believe it or not, I do feel sorry that human beings are forced to endure hardships that are imposed on them, like a terminal illness for example.
I just find you to be a bit sad and pathetic, completely unrelated to your self declared illness, which I was unaware of until today and which in any case is irrelevant to the conversation at hand. And you just keep finding new ways of validating that assessment.
I'm done with this conversation, I think I made myself about as clear as I am able to do.
Holy shit this thread is hilariously pathetic on FS' part.
"No? I just don't like bad moderation."
"...No? What does that do with anything?"
God damn, FS makes me just think .world is a containment instance like Hexbear.
Sure. You go around hurling insult after insult at people you think are “sad and pathetic.” I know I’m an idiot, but I’m not that stupid.
