Now who is stropping?
I did not think "the angry, bitter words of someone you reported for sexism were of equal value to" those of the mod team. I was going by what he published of what was said to him by the mod team - I don't give a hoot what spin he put on it. Had the Mod in the know bothered his fucking arse, while online and posting here anyway, to reply to my PM yesterday then I would have had a better understanding of what was said by the mod team.
I'm not stropping, I'm not remotely emotionally engaged in this at all actually. I think it's beneath you to try and pull that in an attempt to paint me into some kind of corner too. I haven't characterised the tone of your posts in this thread so do me the politeness of not doing so (inaccurately) too, please. :wink:
Remember also that we are not obliged to keep you informed about the details of other people's bannings or interactions with the Moderating Team. We told you exactly what he'd been banned for in the Mod actions thread, that you wanted to treat Michaeldi23's nonsense as of sufficient value that you decided to send us demands for clarification is down to you. That we did not reply to you is not evidence of a site-wide sexism.
The guy was HUd for hate speech, we had already made that clear. What more did you want from us? Affidavits? Sworn testimony? :redface:
Are you telling me that HG made repeated racist remarks before the banning? Could I have the links to those posts, please?
No, that is not what I am telling you. I know of no such posts.
I do report - all the time. I rarely get a response. Are things changing? You'll see above that I have already stated it appears they are? Do I think it is enough yet? No. Do I think sexism is a 'less serious crime' here at LPSG than racism or homophobia? I have made it clear that I do. Do I think you personally, hilaire, see things that way? I know that you do not - I also know you only have one vote. Do I think it is policy? I don't know, that's why I'm asking.
What would you have me do? Not agitate for the changes I think need to be made?
I would have been heartily glad of the discussion too, had it not been wrapped up in this conspiracy about the banning of Michaeldi23 which you seemed to have been implying was an example of bad faith or bungling on our part.
