the thread in question
i have a complaint. i went to this thread and read the first few responses and it was apparent that grannymae and mssunshine were going to flame anyone who disagreed with them. this being the case, i thought it best to point out some of their blatant(and boy do i mean blatant) hypocrisies. during the span of many people pointing out the problem with their statements, granny and mssunshine at some point decided that forum rules dont apply to them and that swearing and trolling anyone who posted an opinion differing from theres was the best way to go about things.
dr_savage points out 8 consecutive flames made by the grannymae/mssunshine coalition which are just so funny in their complete lack of thought and logic that i dont know where to begin. this was pointed out to all moderators present and i even had a pm discussion with a moderator who told me that trolling and flaming from these posters was okay for two reasons:
a) "its the zoo"-which i suppose means that its "wild" and people can do what they please. okay, that kind of makes a wee bit of sense, but the fact that people talk about how OOT is going to be shut down for lack of content and then this is allowed by moderators just blows my mind.
b) "these are well respected long time posters"-well, thats a neat opinion, however, i would be shocked if more than 30% of posters agreed with this. looking at granny's posts, the vast majority are just complete trolls. if anyone thinks that the posts in this thread were the least bit reasonable i would invite them to explain why. but i am shocked beyond all belief that the blatent flames have been allowed. its insane enough that these users are still allowed to post at all, the fact that theyre given a free pass to do whatever they want because theyre friends with a moderator is just silly.
done.
