What divides what drama you like from what drama you can't stand?

WIth Dex, I never saw him as 1st visit Dex, first part of 2nd visit Dex, pre-Kiwi dex, Kiwi Dex... He's the same incurable troubled kid, and he always ended up as a plague to prove me right.
Sinister shows that it's not always hopeless. It's worth gauging and testing instead of shooting on sight. She took a long time to wear down.
Preemptive measures "before things get worse" are the cause of the Luna meltdown too.
Actually, it was pictures of her, a fear that she'd be replaced, and her having no tollerance against opposition. It was pure ego with impressionable shallow undertones. She barely grasps the politics, clinging instead towards self driven idealism.
Don't start with the self-fulfilling prophecies again,
I'm surprised that this phrase doesn't embarass you to reference at this point.
Had you nt even pointed out the chain posting, or made this thread, everything Xena did would have gone completely unnoticed.
I wasn't the only one who saw it.
Chat's almost impossible to moderate, and that doesn't negate the desire for a standard. I also didn't ignore Jim's bids for attention, trust me, this dance of ours has gone on for a while. 
You miss much of the depth of some events here, likely from not always being around or as invested. Your bias extends to impression, hence why you'd find later Dex intollerable despite having barely done anything after he returned after a long hiatus (not Kiwi Dex, his last visit in 1.0). As Cad had said, such maneuvers can set a bad standard, show others what is acceptable. As is, time will either show that or make my life easier.

no it's not. my rating system does more than enough. ask anyone that frequents chat. you obviously wouldn't understand because you're never there (got something to hide in real time?)

And yes, time will tell. It is ok to deal with bigger problems as they arrive, they can be handled :D
I like being a robot when it comes to moderation so that I can keep myself separated from it. Clauses help me remain impartial, so keeping stuff vague scares me.

I think it may be a safer long term solution to just not pay attention to the spam/scroll past it, if you wish to take part the threads starting topic, sometimes a constructive way to do so is to reply to the last person who posted about said topic, since they're typically interested as well. That said, I think that we shouldn't set the decision in stone, if we decide not to do anything. I say this because I worry that should we agree not to have this type of spam deleted, our spammers will see that as license to shitpost with abandon. At the level its at for now and in the near future, no moderation is necessary. Should it ever become necessary, you can bump this thread, and start the discussion again.
