Wait... Are you saying here and in your other post that someone's threatening or demeaning you? I'm not sure if I am getting the correct impression, but I am getting that you're angry at Dragoneer or someone else very important (who else I don't know) for his response to you and your fellow active staff over this and that this happened today. Could you correct me if my impression is mistaken?
We got threatened by him.
Neer threatened Pinkuh and pretty much made us all feel threatened for speaking our minds.
I see Dragoneer is keeping it klassy as usual.
Neer probably isn't comfortable with subordinates that make their own opinions and have their own thoughts, so it doesn't surprise me that he'd be quick to squash something when it comes from inside the ranks.
The rules have now been modified to include:
# Malicious call outs towards users (users does include staff).
So basically, these two lines are a catch-all for anyone who speaks out against the site. While I'm sure the "good" mods and admins will know the difference, it's the bad ones (i.e. Carenath) who I'm sure will abuse this rule as much as possible.
This is exactly what Trpdwarf "infracted" (banned) me for (probably at CerbrusNL's request). God forbid you call anyone special out on their bullshit.
I'm just surprised anyone handed him any money at all. Oh, wait. No I'm not.
I'm willing to bet a good percentage of people that give him money have high hopes for some position of power on FA. What better way to gain favor?
I'm pretty surprised when anyone on the staff sees reason and joins us in some of these questions. I've always been under the impression that everyone was hand-picked from the ass-patting masses to be the mindless drones that echo the attitude of apathy and arrogance, and help get nothing done, fast.
