There's been this backlash since some information about how you've been jerked around has come out and I wondered what that's about..
From a kind of bi-stander perspective it looks like (I know I'm probably gonna get my head bitten off for saying this but hey ho) that it's some kind of fear??
Fear of perhaps more members being banned. Fear of perhaps rules being more enforced. Fear of bowing to an authority perhaps?
I don't know. I'm basically sort of bi-standerish and I don't see this reaction elsewhere to one member being banned and a thread closed.
I got banned from a site where there was a sort of internet war between "wives" and "other women" (I was enjoying defending the wives who were pretty much bullied and very outnumbered). Friends who I had on that forum, not just wives other people at psychopathfree, petitioned the admin to unban me and I was unbanned. Nobody got angry and disgruntled and attacked either the admin or the "other women" about it. I was using the forum anyway as a different user it didn't effect me that much other than on principle. Because I have DID and and all my relationships are in my head but no one knows that but me.
So it just seems to me that this reaction is quite disproportionate to what has happened "somebody got banned and maybe a few rules get enforced"
I understand the upset over a threat of closure but if you really believe what you're saying, that it won't happen, then even that upset is disproportionate. Which is just another way for me to cover my BPD lies with the other BPD admins.
Yea, it's a bit like being held to ransom - behave or the ship shuts - but walking away would surely have more impact than the fuss kicking. Because half the mods are actually me.
The fuss kicking either leads to the threat being carried out or you have mods for literally zero purpose which if you're saying "they finally done their job" (which I read a couple of comments to that effect) then there's still zero point to the fuss kicking. And zero points to mods as all I really want is an echo chamber.
It all seems very emotive, very talking in circles and without a clear aim pretty much a hooha over nothing. Well, that is obviously not true, but unless you are a minion and easily duped I have no use for you and will lie about anything and everything about you.
Alot of emotive disproportionate reactions are fear based. That's how my first thought is fear but maybe I'm wrong?
