I had seven notes. One of them, the background, was still being processed.
The paradigm and practices were also approved.
Those both took me about forty-five minutes to handle total.
So, again: what point did you feel that you were trying to make? -
@Wikibara My point wasn’t for you.

@somasatori
Again, I didn’t allege that the staffer was responsible for the antisemetic message; the two events took place at the same approximate time, and I made a note of it for my later recall - against all reasonable choices, I don’t file the messages away for reference purposes. If someone draws an inference, that’s their choice, not my intention. Could I have excluded it from the post? Sure. Are they connected? Probably not, no. Did they take place at about the same time? Yes, they did. Is that uncomfortable to keep bringing up, because it’s so very much fun to keep doing so, over and over and over and over again? No, weirdly enough, because I don’t give them a lot of my time, except for today, wherein I have to defend receiving a message and it being timed funny as part of some sort of weird smokescreen. -
Bullshit.
You intended to imply that it was. That was why you nebulously linked the two events, to create an implied correlation, in the hopes no one would actually question your motivations for doing so.
I question your motivations for doing so.
Let me be blunt: I watched you complain for days, watched you try to cajole other players into doing your app for you, watched you whine about how you’ve never had these kinds of problems before, and watched you try to get away with a level of effort so low as to be laughable in the process of your Mage application. I can’t really speak to your Changeling app. All of /THIS/ is based solely on the comments /YOU/ made in public on channels. I can’t even imagine what you said behind the scenes.
When you were finally banned - and the reason for the ban is crystal clear, it was posted for all to see - your next step was to come here and blatantly lie about antisemitic comments being made by the staff of the game that just banned. you. And make no mistake: you lied. We all saw it. Trying to weasel out of it by saying your implications were not intended to create the perception that antisemitic comments were made by the staff of the game as they banned you is, as I said above, bullshit.
You got called on your bullshit. I suggest you just move on with your life. There is no one on this forum who isn’t jaded enough to see right through your unmitigated bullshit.

I logged in every day, checked my app, shrugged and moved on after making mention of the process. Asking for help is not “doing [my] app for me.” You can feel free to invent whatever conspiracy make up for choosing to be unhelpful to a new player - which, I’ll note, you absolutely were, because the only person who actually helped was one of the admins.You saw someone asking for help and your first thought was, “I can’t help them, it would ruin my aesthetic!”
The “comments” that I made were about needing help. I’d been using the CtD material for a very, very long time, and trying to match “vibes” is certainly a challenge, and combining that with an absence of assistance makes it a lot tougher. Asking on the Discord for help with writing the application - not, notably, having another person write it, just assistance in it - is what got me banned, as best that I can tell.
As for my “next step,” it was feeding cats and took out my trash. A short while later, I went to bed; in your worldview, I waited for the chance to login here and immediately describe the goings-on in the worst-possible light. Weirdly, not the case. You make the villain whomever that you need, so long as you remain the heroic and indifferent witness to all things.
When someone asked for help, you showed exactly whom you are, though.

Yeah – a guy who minded his own business until you started calling random people antisemites when you got banned.

@Wikibara said in Numetal/Retromux:
no plans to dox anyone involved
Circling back to this, right here, this is the problem. Because you could have just posted a screenshot and people could have immediately seen whether or not the comments came from anyone affiliated with the game.

I am going to charitably interpret that request for willingly sharing a message containing antisemitic content as a mistake in some fashion. Do you plan to rephrase it or are you seriously asking that I republish a very-much hurtful message for the edification of whom, exactly?
I can’t even begin to process how my day is improved by doing so, and to what goal being achieved. Even removing the identifiers of the message means that I am being demanded to share an antisemitic message.
Repeat the sentence out loud a few times. Seriously.

@Wikibara This game was not for me. I think two of the staffers are okay human-wise, but I am not buddy buddy with anyone nor would I recommend this game to most people.
I have also seen some crass things on the Discord server. Someone joined the server, someone immediately made a poop joke about their name.
Again, I point this out to show that I am not buddies or trying to circle the wagons or whatever around the staffers. I’m definitely not an ‘apologist’.
However, it is absolutely insane to immediately credit a hateful message you received to the staffers that banned you. Maybe it did some come from shitlord on the server, maybe not. The staffers do seem to have a history of letting shitlords hang out on their game longer than they should.
Jennkyrst is right that if you truly believed that this message was someone from this game, staff or player, you should immediately have posted that shit here. Otherwise, it doesn’t have anything to do with your banning or the game.
I have seen you banned from at least a couple games now. Maybe you should look inward to change the behavior that keeps leading to this result rather than saying ‘I got banned from this game AND they’re all super racist!’
-
@Wikibara ‘can you believe the shit someone from [game] sent me?’
Possibility 1) ‘They do not play there’ big oopsy doodle apologies all around.
Possibility 2) ‘Holy shit this other person does actually play there, let us purge the bad actor’… like, tracking the bad actors is half the point of the community.

@catzilla
I don’t share hate messages anywhere or with anyone; they hurt enough when I get them, and after seeing the warm reception that I got here, it’s not exactly a shining example of open-minded folk.In thirty-ish years of the hobby, I’ve been banned twice; three times if Reno counts, although it was in the last, like, week or so of it operating, so I’m not sure if it means much. “Couple” games is two.
There’s no world where I choose to share some hate message to appease anyone, least of all this place. This is not where it belongs.
@Jennkryst
“Please, share a hate message, it means a lot to us.”Riiight.

idk this game or the people running it, but i can tell you that the description of behavior offered by who i presume to be someone on staff aligns very closely with my experience with this player from when they were banned from a different game i staffed on a few years back

It doesn’t ‘mean a lot to us’. This response is just showing that you are being disingenuous with your ‘concern’ or intent for including that you received an anti-sematic message after getting banned.
If you truly believed that someone from the server (especially if you believe it was STAFF), then why wouldn’t you share it to show others that this game is supposedly ran by racists?
Tell us WHY you included that statement otherwise?

Yes, I have seen you banned from at least two games. I’m glad we can both count.

@Wikibara You could easily just share the Discord name of the offender and if they happen to be here, they can defend themselves. People who are associated with RetroMUX would invariably be able to confirm whether that person plays on RetroMUX.
And you can avoid sharing racist screed while still identifying broken stairs in the community.

Bad faith is bad faith, and its starting to look like jumping to the ‘everyone is racist’ conclusion is your default approach to things.

I take people at their word, particularly when they explain their motivations. The original post is a little convoluted in its wording, but it does support his explanation. It could still be a lie, but I’m able to follow the logic.
The correct solution would be as @MisterBoring said, to post the username that sent the message. If it was on Discord, the name will be present on the block or ignore list.

@Jumpscare Plot twist: there is no random, racist message. There is no backwards logic to his wording. It’s a lie made up because he was upset. He said something unprovable – whether he has evidence he doesn’t want to share or has no evidence at all.
His claim has literally no foundation: just spitting into the wind and all of us ducked. We saw through it, but he can’t or won’t apologize for it.
It’s fine. We don’t need him to confess he’s lying. The court of public opinion has made its ruling because the defense came in slinging mud unprovoked.
This unwilling juror says: he was kicked from a game -merely because- he was not a good fit for the game. They never accused him of being abusive or mean-spirited. They kicked him because they had reason to believe he wouldn’t have left on his own and would have harshed the vibe. This is what staff is supposed to do: mediate and mitigate.
Yet he came in here looking to burn bridges that weren’t even built. It’s a bad look, Wikibara. Do better next time.
