In Reply to: *Email to Rick RE:M14 posted by H2O Adm M5: WARNING! on March 22, 1999 at 19:45:06:
ROTFL! I got a good one out of that! Thanks!
This is a warning. YOU IGNORED THE NEW FPP.
You obviously want to cause trouble, because you ignored the posting right under yours!
I didn't ignore it. I hadn't read it! My post took a lot of time to construct since it contains a lot of links and html. I was busy putting it together and fixing the links when the "new FPP" post appeared.
Your post amounts to whining about old policies. Rick spent his weekend and spare time at the request of ingrateful people like you and look what fruit it bears! You ignored the new FPP and continued throwing a temper tantrum. I doubt you people have any honourable intention of paying any heed to the newly proposed procedures.
That's rich. My post was full of evidence, well thought out and arranged. Believe me, you're the only one who looks like he's throwing a temper tantrum. "Ingrateful[sic]" huh? Maybe you missed this post by me expressing sympathy for Rick and asking everybody not to be too demanding of him.
Personally, I thought Rick should have ignored your
griping. I knew you would ignore any efforts of his to change the board and you have just proven my point!
Rick told us to send him emails with evidence of Moderator abuse and outlined exactly how he wanted the emails (with clickable links, etc.). I haven't proven any point of yours.
The reason, I suspect, is some of you are anti-Jehovah's Witness propagandists who benefit from the "old way" H2O was run. You loved it when M14 and others delete your
posts because then you can claim they represent JWs tendency to control others. The complaining was a form of posturing. Someone gambled and lost on the bet that Rick would not have time to reorganize the FPP. Those supporting him were
disingenuous in their cheerleads imho. They figured he wouldn't have the energy to follow through on his promises or I'm certain you never would have asked for an FPP revision.
That was a classic. Sure, we tried so hard to get Rick to implement a new FPP specifically because we didn't want him to! ROFL! That was a good one. I don't "love it" when M14 deletes my posts. Most of the posts I linked to weren't mine at all.
And now, he has you crossing
your fingers the new FPP will disappear. You actually want moderators like M14 to delete your posts in order to setup a JW "strawman" to further your anti-JW campaign. I'm thoroughly disgusted at you! At the possibility you would play
games on this site under dozens of personalities to increase your livelihoods from the sales on those videos from the hidden cameras.
What the heck makes you think I sell hidden camera videos? Are you directing this at me? If so, then this is slander, a violation of the FPP and you should get a warning yourself. This is supposed to be a warning to me, remember? If you are speaking about someone else, then this is off-topic and another violation of the FPP. Why don't you save your off-topic claims for people who actually come under them?
This is your first warning. This site is for the purpose of discussing issues related to Jehovah's Witnesses, and not whining and
complaining especially about old procedures you yourselves pined to change. Furthermore, you are one extremely rude individual to ignore the new FPP and continue complaining about actions done under the old FPP!
You gave me this "warning" because, according to your checklist, my post was off-topic. Excuse me, but considering the new FPP is being implemented and that Rick told us to report Moderator abuse, don't you think my post is entirely "on topic"? It's obvious to everyone here that the only real reason this post resulted in a warning is because it exposed Moderator abuse. Your "warning" contained more violations of the FPP (slander, personal attacks) than my mine. You're just using it as a platform to whine.
Doesn't anyone on this site have any sense of decency? I believe Rick could better spend his time elsewhere. What a waste, his getting stressed over a bunch of ingrateful ones like yourself who ignore new
policies staring right in your face! well, isn't worth the stress IMHO. I'm stressed just seeing his self-destructive behaviour of trying to keep what seems like a dead horse alive. I am personally deeply disappointed with H2O because all
I see here is people like you commisserating.
Well, here's something staring you "right in your face"- The new FPP is here, and I for one am glad that you are going to have to answer for your actions (somewhat, anyway).
His current effort in spending an entire weekend is quite obviously unappreciated. I told him should have been devoted to needed rest.
What Rick needs a rest from is all the Moderator abuse that began this whole business in the first place. My recommendation to him would save him a lot of headache in the future.
Now that you've issued me my "warning" I'm sure you'll be eager to delete this post. I hope you're ready with a better explanation than that it was "off topic". It relates thoroughly to your post.
