That does not make it untrue, however.

It's ok to have opinions. But there are better way to express them.

It is not an opinion if it is true.

I would have preferred a ban.

Let's drop it here, please.

I will say what I said earlier in private.

[16:15] <Daemon404> i am tired of the whole thing where the person pointing out 
the insanity is punished because they were mean
[16:15] <Daemon404> and the people doing long term damage keep on scott free
[16:17] <Daemon404> focusing on Mean Words
[16:17] <Daemon404> instead of deeper issues

What i saw were questions that went unanswered a few months ago, and now you being angry with said person that you say gets scott free. Can you please explain the overall situation, from your PoV? I swear a lot of stuff just happens behind curtains and i and others only notice it when it explodes.


I agree I was out of line, but for the above reason (among others), the CC is a 
lame duck,

One email saying one thing out of the line is no reason for a ban. Why would you want to force anyone to do that?

Seriously, there's a lot of missing context here, and my work as part of the CC gets complex. Half the stuff i know about this i learned on IRC only a few hours ago, which apparently was common knowledge for some and news for others.

lacking the ability to enact actual meaningful change. The modus operandi here 
is to drive
anyone sane into eventually getting angry and saying regretful things. 
Gaslighting, sort of.
More like [1]. Coupled with the complacent attitude of Please Just Stop So I 
Can Code from
a chunk of the rest of the community, I find myself screaming into the void.

I am tired of screaming into the void.

This is what i mean when i say things only become apparent when they explode.


I have taken this opportunity to unsubscribe for a while, as a self imposed 
temp ban for my
own benefit. I did that last time I felt like [1] here, and it was beneficial.
