With all due respect, and at the risk of catching a ban, I don't believe disagreeing with someone who happens to be a mod falls under the category of giving them grief.
I 100% understand how people arguing with mods about things related to the mod doing their jobs is worthy of a ban or reprimand.
But being a mod shouldn't mean that no one can disagree with their opinion on topics such as this without being in fear of getting banned.
Being a mod doesn't make someone's opinions infallible. I think there should be a clear line drawn between a mod expressing their opinion on a subject like any other Anon, and a mod being in mod mode when they're dealing with something that requires them to do their job as a mod.
It’s “how” the tone is done. I was not questioning the question. But since you seem to need an excessive detailed explanation; thank you for attempting to correct a Mod, where NO Correction or Intervention was needed Anon. Please mind your own business period. And that is a clear warning.
Ok, Devil's avocado here. (And Brent, you know I respect our mods highly.)
Here's the quote:
Isn't it a bit absurd to declare symbolism will be their downfall in describing an event where you have zero idea of what the symbolism actually means? It's not like they're parading some goat skull about or anything.
I think a lot of us will probably fail to see how there is anything untoward in the tone here (I do). Maybe in the assertion.... ie..e "you posted an absurd subject line" but the tone seems perfectly fine to me.
If you can clarify or expound on this, that would be great.
That said, offgridguy came back and responded well to your admonition, so that's a win, either way.
Yep I was only worried in the tone. As of the questions and info, I’ll let CatsFive and y’all ponder this. I understand some symbolism but I myself am no expert or information guy on going to deep on this area.
