MODERATORS
On the off chance that you're actually open to hearing any kind of criticism, sure:
Okay, let me spell this out to you like you are a 4-year-old:
I made a Lemmy post asking what people are going to do for NaNoWriMo.
The post was treated derisively as most people already know what it is and don't like it, and the rest genuinely didn't know what it is.
Other people in the thread corrected them.
One person decided to catch attitude with me about it and I promptly told them where to stuff it.
You didn't like that and started arguing with me.
.
And you're doing this because you think I'm upset other people don't like NaNoWriMo or me, and you don't understand I don't care if they do or not.
They have the right to like or hate whatever the fuck they want. I can't make people like NaNoWriMo and I don't want to make people like something I like. That's their prerogative. As a fellow human being who shares this Earth with 8 billion other motherfuckers, I'm fine with that.
What I'm not fine with is the notion that I have to be a doormat and let people walk all over me to appease your sensibilities, because you misunderstand the point of the thread.
This thread is not for converting people to the ways of NaNoWriMo. I specifically was looking for other people who already know about it and were going to participate.
I really, really don't know how to make this clearer to you than it already is. It's on you if you refuse to listen and it's pretty apparent that refusing to listen is something that you're good at.
Sure lil buddy, whatever you say. Have fun being an overly verbose, abrasive dickwad and thinking that it somehow makes you an intellectual, that'll show people not to "catch attitude with you."
And you can be an oversensitive, overbearing, overly offended concern troll with nothing better to do with your life than get mad at someone because you misinterpreted a situation and are too arrogant to admit you were wrong, but it won't make you sound any less dumb.
That'll sure show me not to assert myself when someone is being toxic in my own thread for no reason. ๐
