also, " readying the next weapon in your arsenal." 

seriously? chatgpt is writing for you? :P

I'm much better than chatgpt in creative writing.

I think it's apt.

It's depressing how negativity poisons our mind, isn't it? I have seen both Luna and TC express kindness and rage. Inside of us, there's always a battle between doing the right thing and temptation and ego.

It's timeworn frustration, and now that she isn't in the admin position I'm no longer stuck with it. I spent ages explaining it to her when she was otherwise the barrier between a problem being fixed or ignored, and I even saw other mods face the same issue and effectively learn the same lesson; Luna doesn't listen to other people in a constructive way, so the problems persist until she builds an entirely new model from scratch that's consistently worse than the last while simultaneously ignoring the social problems. 

Again, as an example there was a time where the ban button didn't even work, for a good... while. She was signing on and not fixing it even when willing to talk about it, so the only actual defense the website had back then was the belief that bans could happen still. 

The question then becomes why she doesn't listen, and it's clear when in that role that it's not just incompetence with the website however, but a fundamental misunderstanding over how social dynamics work in general, let alone on the forum itself. With no way to explain it to her, even these days it ends up a waste of my time either with her being like 'tldr lol' or 'don't care' if not tangenting onto the thing she'd rather talk about after calling it boring or something. 🤷

It's not fair to say that TC is a troll. He listens and learns more broadly than anyone here. He also shows kindness when it matters and he doesn't break trust. It's too harsh to say he's a troll and nothing else.

It was a long time ago, though. Maybe it's time to accept Luna's weaknesses. If you focus on her strengths instead, then she has a lot to offer.

What would you say her strengths are?  What do they offer?

She is excitable and high energy. She's someone who takes an idea and runs with it. She's enjoyable to talk with when she has something she is passionate about.

She's high energy and will be a trusted ally if you manage to excite her and get her on your side.

I know smart people when I see them. I'm keen when it comes to consideration of others. I'm moral, and an excellent judge of character. I protect my peace.

Once again I find you ridiculous.

Yes it maybe true that you're lonely but it's not because you have a high IQ or anything.

I became the youngest faculty hire in my Physics Department, it is factually correct to say I'm smart. At least top 0.001% of the population. Again, not that I care, but it's more a matter of fact and reality.

Sometimes I wonder if I want to be smart. However, when I do, I realise I still value understanding the world around me. So when people ask me, would you prefer to be intelligent or autistic, and I look at how happy autists around me are, I hesitate. But then I find meaning and purpose in my intellectual pursuits, and that overweight my desire to be happy and content.

You can expand on what you find ridiculous about TC being a human being, but I suspect that you're unable to see past your judgement of him. Maybe that's why he wears that cartoonish devil avatar.

I doubt all of it.

 Sure I can, but you may have noticed that's not what I found ridiculous. It's you sucking TC anus with rose coloured glasses while all he did was take swings at Luna.

You also don't have any examples of him being worthy of trust, or being a caring person.  

jada is just boredi think so has decided to play referee and apparently my calling tc a troll is a foul :P
