Who moderates the moderators on here?
Hi everyone,
First off, thank you to everyone who contributes to this forum. It has helped me immensely over the years.
However... Some of the ... erm ... "more respected" members on here, are clearly extremely intelligent and don't have a lot of patience for those less intelligent than them. Their sarcasm and disdain is often really not nice. I am a sensitive person, and some of the comments (whether relevant to my question at the time or not) can ruin my day just because I saw them. It keeps me away from the forums. I will often rather struggle for ages to get something right than ask here because I don't cope well with being spoken to by someone who is not big on respect.
Please don't be a venomous arrogant snob.
Thank you.
Moderation action: please, use the retag link under your question to replace
common
tag bymeta
since the question is related to AskLO site (this tag is the official tag for questions about the site).This is exactly the type of behavior I commented on here . @ajlittoz, you were also party to the issue in question. Do you know what happened? After being insulted repeatedly by a certain esteemed member here, the entire issue got deleted. I even wrote the administrators regarding the issue and am still waiting for any kind of response. That is the reality of the site's moderator and regularly contributing members.
@gtomorrow: I thought I had a comment here but not sure it was really posted because I experience frequent "glitches" with the site. It looks like your linked question has been deleted. Could you remind me the topic? Eventually, if this was publicly offending, we can continue on private mail.
@ajlittoz, I realise you field a lot of questions here so you probably wouldn't remember this particular incident two weeks ago offhand and you are frequently an asset to this site. The deleted question ("Today is 9/21 but no daily Windows 64-bit build since 9/16") itself wasn't, as you put it, "publicly offending" but the unprovoked comments were exactly the type @mrjjacobs is describing here. Unfortunately, due to the mysterious deletion, the only record of the exchange that remains is three brief 80-character summaries from my account's Activity page. It's possible that you may have some remnant on your account Activity page as well. In any case I would be more than happy to discuss the matter at hand privately.
@gtomorrow: it has scrolled past the end of my activity page.
Contact me on ajlittoz (at) users (dot) sourceforge (dot) net. After an initial mail exchange, you'll get my real @ddress.
