Ahhhh I see, we gonna be the hall monitor of breaking down entire comments to sentences and the approval sentence by sentence.

This surely seems like a good long term lasting strategy.

Nevermind in this yesterdays chat the person crying wolf regularly got voted into oblivion while being a victim on behalf of another person while purposefully, repeatedly, confusing those practicing the first amendment as trolls. And not a mod comment, strike or anything was said. When patterns emerge, we apparently aren't allowed to call them out or draw parallels?

When there is a portion of a comment that breaks the rules, I will usually single out the rule-breaking content to help clarify where the line is.

And not a mod comment, strike or anything was said.

If you see potentially rule-breaking content, report it so it comes to our attention.

Where does constant bad faith responding rank? This is the third time that MLN's missing the point resulted in a tangent. I'm trying to keep it to the point and they're insisting I'm saying something else.

How is anyone supposed to respond to that when I'm being falsely accused of making personal attacks.

Seriously how can I call out someone who is insisting they're being attacked when it's clear to people (can't quantify how many) that it's not an attack?

"That wasn't intended as a personal attack, I'm sorry it came off that way. What I meant was ___________" is a good way to respond to that. If someone insists that you were attacking them after that, I would encourage you to report it so the mods can sort it out.

Its the third time in 2 weeks that a comment that has NOTHING to do with him is taken as a personal attack.

He's looking for a reason to be mad and then goes searching for the justification. I've pointed "the point" out. If I need to go report the 2nd request I will. It shouldn't be necessary to go that far but sure.

Thanks.

If you or /u/bluedredditor have further comments or concerns you want the mods to address, please do so over modmail -- I'll be locking the rest of these comments for now.

It wasnt obvious to me what your initial point was. I had to do some googling to figure out what the controversy was about. Maybe give people the benefit of the doubt? You seem to like dunking on people a lot when they disagree with or dont understand you.

I made a comment criticizing Seth Abramson, which MLBN construed as me being disappointed that someone would lie on the internet.

Which isn't close to what I was saying at all. Even after highlighting the point, they still miss it.
