Can flagging be weaponised?

If you think It’s hot you’re right

There’s a difference between ‘truth’ and ‘beliefs’. If there is no truth there can not be untruth. If there is no truth beyond an individual’s belief that something is true, then an individual cannot hold their own beliefs to be false or mistaken. In other words they are looking for a way to weasel out of things.

And remember: Opinions are like ‘rear ends’ - everybody has one and some are full of

Have one of these on me or if you prefer

It is a difficult thing to try and reason with an ignorant person.

i know a number of posters always post personal hate to me, if they comment on my posts.

and now, another of my posts seems to have been massflagged due to being off-topic

watch it, this is a minefield.
-In your mind it can be a weapon yes.

They generally do when it comes to “you-know-who.”

@RUNtoFUN-2882

in the far past, i created posters that i dominated, hating me still.

Why would anyone make haters?

[ZeeLoyd-2566]

@RUNtoFUN-2882

i have empirical data and hunches, enough to get me through the day.

You may want to adjust your hunch a bit to not trying to detect hate.
-How do you detect another person’s hate? are you on constant alert for it? You do not seem paranoid.
I only ever hated one person who drugged and sexually assaulted one of my relatives. -I would never bring that amount of emotion into a debate, and that person do not know I hate him. -So you should by evidence provided pick another word for your feeling of persecution.

staying strict and fair

@RUNtoFUN-2882

digging that old mistake up

I refer to it because it ably demonstrates exactly how much trust we can place in your claim that you stay “strict and fair” when debating, i.e. you were completely willing to lie about what I said, then provide a counter-argument to something I never said, just to try and score points. I’d suggest that’s firmly in the “dishonest and unfair” category.

see what’s going on here?

-no hate from me, just a reaction on haters and/or trolls, nothing personal…

[MolaRam-11567]

@ZeeLoyd-2566

It seems though, that you judge a lot of disagreement as hate without trying to understand.

Because this is how he passes the time. It was never about understanding the opposing argument. All he wants is attention, and you keep giving it to him.

[Cyonan-1183]

@RUNtoFUN-2882

in the past, i had a habit to confront most brutes.(form, nonsense, insults, etc)
-those reactions fell very bad with those brutes and their friends and they ‘promoted’ me as being the aggressor, instead of the defender.
-i still am very unwanted to those posters that took a hit from me.

Aggressor or defender, you were still very likely breaking the ToS.

Somebody else being mean to you isn’t a free licence to do whatever you want in defense of that. Breaking the rules puts you at risk for having action taken against you if it’s reported.

[ZeeLoyd-2566]

@RUNtoFUN-2882

just a reaction on haters and/or trolls, nothing personal

So you think calling people haters is not personal?
And just for your information -you can’t feel another person’s hate, unless you have ESP.

[Meteorblade-2266]

@RUNtoFUN-2882

i can tolerate disagreement with ease

@RUNtoFUN-2882

another 4 trolls (yep, you too, MB) that joins Avalon behind the mute wall, bye.

So tolerant of disagreement that you put people that disagree with you on mute so that you can’t see them disagreeing with you.

You make me chuckle sometimes.

I’ve had a few recent flags for basically calling out people making crap up or being hypocrites. None of which I regret. I don’t particularly view the behavior a coincidence with it starting after Blizzcon and Blizz basically opening the doors for any and all feedback, no matter how inane or out of touch. There’s also a high probability it’s the people I called out, their alts, and/or their friends doing the flagging. It’s basically become the alternative to the dislike button.

That said, like others, I could also call the OP on prior behavior, particularly when it comes to political references. As one of those evil leftists you’ve commonly derided, I can assure you any endeavor I pursue in that arena is for the betterment of humanity. But I’ll just leave it at that since the US is doing enough burning at the moment.

@Saidosha-1136

yep, but i payed already for all my infractions, so it would not be fair.
-at least, finally, i can skip those that agitate and annoy me, so i protect myself from being triggered; i’m way more ‘friendly’, thanks to this new forum.

also, most others have their ‘past’ here…i’m not digging.

i only act on people that structurally agitate me, unprovoked and luring me to sometimes derail my own thread or if some go way too far in even 1 post, by shoving them into silence; 34 sofar.

a request: make the ignore/mute button endless, but reversible.
-that would be an improvement.

[McCloud-1547]

I can’t determine if the OP is one the greatest trolls ever (after reading his threads for years now) or… well you know.
