Say Anything #37

Hahaha! My dude I’m the same way with my clothes. :joy: Especially my whites. I really didn’t want to do laundry tonight but I put a couple tees in an OxiClean soak in a bucket so I pretty much had to wash them after the soak was done.

Jimmy is doing good! I think I’ve overestimated his age. I got him around 2013 I believe so he’s only around 13 or 14 years old.

@Turtle Hey there mija. I hope you’re able to relax and get some rest.

The festival was pretty good. There were not many bands I was already familiar with, plus it rained nearly the entire day, but it still was fun.

In Sweden we all know about rain during festivals. People buy rain ponchos to wear.

Nice!

Which bands were playing?

When I am not online or logged in to the forum, I am not given a chance to defend myself or counter any “claims” by the 调解人. I am immediately logged out & suspended without warning or proving my case. This has been going on for 3-years during 2 instances. This is the pattern or trend I have noticed.

THis isnt even the same forum. YOu have never been suspended here. Whatever beefs you have with the old forum does not apply here. Only 2 of the moderators/admin ever even moderated on the old forum. As you may notice, you are not suspended.

I’ll tell you what, if you want to just criticize when nothing has even happened to you, I can do you the favor and remove you from the forum completely.

If you would like to continue to contribute here, I would recommend you dont carry grudges from years ago against mods who arent even on this forum. Your grudges will not serve you well here.

And to be frank, this is not even all about you. There are few members that have shown contempt for this forum and its moderation. If any of these people feel that they can do better, they can feel free to start their own. Its a free country and all and our volunteer staff doesnt need the grief. I could be off watching a movie or doing something constructive instead of being here so …you know.

That’s a fair counter argument. I have forgotten to mention that yes, this is a new forum but some of the previous users have transitioned to the new one.

You are correct that I was not suspended; however, the thread that I supposedly incurred an infraction “closed” before I could even defend myself. It felt like the “cycle” was starting all over again.

It seems some users will, “tow-the-line” against me for their benefit or for whatever reason.

It’s a fresh start and I did not intend to begin my participation in this forum in a negative way.

I will look further into what threads were closed so I can get a better picture of what you are upset about and get back to you.

The only thread that you commented in that I see that was closed was in relation to this comment.

Misogyny is prohibited in the rules. I understand that this could be considered a sexist comment by western standards is sound.

Now I understand that some of this may be cultural differences. I can understand that.

Do you understand the phrase “when in rome…”? I think this applies here.

We may be able to give a bit of leeway on the culturul differences, but you have to follow the “when in rome…” example a bit yourself. You have to follow the rules that apply here.

If I went to China and started to shout, “Down with the government!”, I probably wouldnt fair well there. You have to show the same kind of restraint in relation to our rules, even though some of them may appear odd to you.

The comments you posted would likely be considered sexist by most here.

I made the comment. You often made sexist and negative comments towards women on the old forum. You have been explained multiple times that you can’t talk about women in this manner. You are refusing to learn. I did not close your thread but it needed to end. Just remember it’s not personal. I just don’t like what you say sometimes. @yinyang

Yeah I brought a couple cheap rain ponchos to wear.

The only bands there that I knew were Nonpoint (headliner), Powerman 5000, Soil and Ded. I’ve heard of one other band, Blacktop Mojo. These are small-time bands. There were a total of 20 bands between the two stages, but we just watched the ten bands that played the main stage.

I haven’t heard any of those bands. I need to check them out.
