@Testament I get it, but it might be worth letting it all be now. We are not talking from the same realities anymore, we each have our emotionally formed version of what is real (and I’m sure on this forum there are many versions of it, as there are there) but people like those need the opposition to be evil, so. It’s just…not worth it. You’ll just put yourself in a position to be hurt, in a place where all the power is held by people who are open that they are answerable to no-one, not even the community.

@Testament Narson is not your dad! You do you.

I’m probably overthinking but I would hate for anyone to feel like they need to act a way or hold a view to be accepted ‘here’. I mean, you were the one who called VK on the GOODBYEFOREVER in the first place.

Also if narson is your dad, I apologize. I just assumed I would have heard by now.

I just want to say since it’s apparent that Ghost is reading that it is against the SPIRIT OF THE RULE of the new MSB to continue to personally attack the banned, particularly when they cannot respond directly to those personal attacks.

I’m glad however they found their safe place to apply the rules only to those they dislike and can continue circle jerking about how great and POSITIVE they are while shitting on everyone who cannot defend themselves.

No, no. He’s not reading. He’s just HEARING about it. From PEOPLE.

@Tez the oppressed masses that we bullied into silence by existing, that continue to be silent now that we are gone, because they have ghost to speak for them

bear_necessities

@Tez yes all those PEOPLE who are RUNNING to Ghost to tell him so he can continue to be a POSITIVE INFLUENCE in the community.

Gany said the reason for the bannings was to help with sharing ideas and communities! Because MSB didn’t have those elements before, apparently!

AND GHOST IS GOING TO SAVE US ALL FROM ALL THE BULLIES! THANK YOU GHOST!

@hellfrog More often than not, I think people at times feel a sense of social pressure to act a certain way in order to be accepted. That probably varies from situation to situation, but I think it’s still a thing. Not even talking on forums specifically, but just in general life.

And if I was the one who called out VK originally, I don’t remember, but that sounds like something I’d do.

@Narson They may be different perception of the same reality, but that belief doesn’t invalidate their perception. That’s simply why we have perception to begin, created by our own biases, worldview, and preconceived notions. There’s countless different version, each slightly variable from one person to the next.

It will stop and be boring much, much more swiftly if folks stop talking about it here. The only reason for the behavior happening in the way that it is is because the people doing it can CLEARLY see that the needling and backhanded insults are stirring everyone up.

This is Ghost and Monique, folks. They have a long-term history of intentionally getting under peoples’ skin for the purposes of just…being mean. Probably best to stop feeding them, as hard as can be.

They’re going to build what they deserve, and be stuck to marinate in their own shit. Just leave them to it. If it turns out that it winds up being positive and good and what they’re SAYING it’s going to be, then the hobby wins. In no world does continuing to engage serve the greater good.

Telling myself as much as everybody else, that’s for sure.
