NationStates Jolt Archive

Ok, I realize that this thread has been rather ... argumentative, but so far as I can recall, no one resorted to actual flaming until this was posted just a few minutes ago:

Note the constant repetiton of derogation, and the reference to "truss," which I'm assuming is a reference to my recent operation for prostate cancer. Isn't this going just a TAD too far???

Or, euTRUSca.

Once again, Eutrusca's own behaviour in that particular thread is flamey, baitey and spammy.

And yet again, this time in HUGE type:

Most of those who choose to shorten "Eutrusca" do so via "Eut."

I disagree, but that's for the Mods to decide.

Then you've been hiding since last November.

Large type intended to make a lasting impression. Large type that does not contain a flame.

Don't make assumptions about your celebrity status.

I'm not. Perhaps we should let the mods decide that as well.

I have locked the thread.

No offense to anyone, but it is 58 pages, 1156 posts of utter crap. The last few pages incriminate everybody equally. Rather than waste my time reading the whole thing, I'll just let it sink and use the opportunity to tell everyone to cool off.

And he didn't. And you assumed insult where none existed. This all very much reminds me of when Kahta reported a post because a person was speaking in Finnish and used his name, which is also a word in the Finnish language.

Message received. Off to fight crime in Paragon City. Goodnight, TG. Night, everybody.

May I please have an email address where I can contact you?

I like that you didn't count your last post in there;)

I don't really consider lockposts as posts, more of an appended note or stamp. :cool:

Since I am not paid for this, I limit my Moderation activities to the forum.

Somewhere in the "mod mob" is someone who works for pay. What about Selusa Secundus? Or [ violet ]?

No there isn't. Nobody is paid for the work we do on NS.

Ok then. Can I please have an email address to which I can write in the expectation that someone involved in NationStates will reply, paid or unpaid?

Why don't you just TG a mod of your choice, Eut? They generally reply.

There's tg's, there's this forum - which seems to be the correct place for complaints, all things considered. Not sure why you think an email will make a difference, or why any one of the mods or admins should give you their private contact information when there are other avenues of address readily available, still - there's always been the admin@nationstates.net address if you really feel you're not getting the attention you think you deserve on an issue. *shrugs*

Much ado about nothing, IMO. Sorry if I got hot under the collar last night - I ought to have just let it ride, but it just gets under your skin after awhile.

Is your complaint just a detailed list on why you think "Truss" was an esoteric, veiled slight dealing with your surgery? If it is, I think you're just wasting your time. I really don't see the insult.

1. Who said it had anything to do with my feeling I'm "not getting the attention" I think I "deserve on an issue?"

2. Who asked for a "private email address?"

No, even though it was indeed an insult.

We don't have "business" e-mail addresses. Our site support is limited to the Getting Help page and this forum. (And woe betide the request that is filed in the wrong place, when it belongs in the other.)

This is all like, so two days ago.it was indeed

So there's no way for me to contact anyone connected with NationStates other than on here?

There's admin@nationstates.net, but really they prefer for as many issues as possible to be resolved here, because this is what 'here' is for, so they don't have to spend hours on their inbox every day dealing with non-technical matters.

Ok. Thanks.
