So who did it?

[Asher]

Oh, you found that insulting?

If you don't like being called that, you should stop acting like it.
It's incredibly rude to delete a thread without citing a reason.
It's incredibly fascist to delete a thread which did not break any rules.

In your own words:

Well... if you act like a jerk all the time, don't be surprised when people treat you the same way

[Ming]

A classic example of your limited arguing skills... again, look in the mirror

Some day, you will grow up

[Wiglaf]

If you want some respect, you have to earn it.

Damn you asher! You have not earned respect! Ban threat! Closed thread! Bad Glonky!

I could see where you were coming from if he was some sort of convict or whatever. Is he an ass sometimes? hell yeah. but if this respect BS is what you moderate by, hey, at least it's only the OT you're killing.

The reasoning here is ridiculous. Either lock all personal threads down, provide a good explaination for this one, or admit you made the wrong decision. That's how "simple" it is.

[Ming]

When I make a mistake, I admit it... and I have many times here.

When it comes to spam, it is a matter of opinion... and feel free to disagree... because it is opinion. And if you want to call somebody a nazi... fine, but expect what you are going to get in return. I close threads as part of my job... I don't call people a nazi. All he is doing is whining... like a spoiled brat. If he want's to insult me, he should expect some back.

[Asher]

Ming, I'm pissed off right now about a bunch of things going on in life.

So I came here to try to take my mind off of things and talk to a bunch of people, only to find my first thread coming back was deleted without warrant or reason.

You ARE biased. Else all personal threads will be closed.
You make statements like:

you insult people on a regular basis

And use me getting mad at you for deleting a thread with no reason as an excuse for it.

I don't know why we don't get along, but I'm pretty sure it has to do with bull**** like this.

[Ming]

You are always welcome to your opinion.

My opinion was that your thread had turned into a spam fest.

It's that simple...

Your first reaction was to call me a Nazi... real mature

Reap what you sow.

[Asher]

I called you a nazi? When? Fascist != nazi.

You're the one bring a pr<b></b>ick, btw.

Obviously not, otherwise this thread wouldn't exist.

Again, you are welcome to your opinion... and yeah... fascist... nazi, not a big difference... your first post to this thread was an insult... deny it if you wish, but it will only make you look more stupid.
So excuse me if I have a very low opinion of you. You make it easy.

[Urban Ranger]

Glonk,

I got some PM's here from people who were pissed at you. I have no intention of disclosing them, however that's an indication of how some posters feel about you on 'Poly.

Now, personal threads are a grey area. There is no rights and wrongs and I see Ming was merely using his discretion here. Given that he is human, it is understandable that he closes some posters' threads easier than others.

I see Irman's thread as completely legal, and all happy birthday threads are legal by precedents. There are all sorts of personal threads on the OTF as a matter of fact, asking for help for homework or computer troubles are typical. Are they personal? Yes. Do they serve a purpose? Yes.

I haven't read your thread so I can't tell if it serves a purpose. Announcing your own return doesn't cut it, however.

[Ming]

Heck, I had no problem with the subject of his thread... I didn't close it when I first saw it. I closed it when AFTER it turned into a spam fest... but he just wants to ride his high horse and whine about it...

[orange]

Fascists are not Nazis.

Maybe I'm in the dark, but why does everyone supposedly hate Asher? I thought he was well liked I haven't read anything from him deserving of hatred, am I missing something?

[Ming]

Orange...
UR's post is right on target...
I have a whole bunch of complaints about Glonk/asher... He has pissed a lot of people off. So yes, his actions are watched far closer than other people who haven't had TONS of complaints about them. That's the way it is.

Again... he reaps what he sows... So he can whine all he wants, and it isn't going to change anything. When he starts showing some respect to other posters, then maybe he will get some respect in return.

[Asher]

<b>My</b> high horse?!
Ming, have you looked at this thread?

I didn't even know it turned into a spam fest. I only saw 1 reply to it, then I had to get some sleep.
It would have been nice if you at least LOCKED it so I can see any replies.

Or at least TOLD ME that it turned into a spam thread.

UR: That's BS, frankly. Why would people PM you about how much they hate me? Are you starting a club about it or something?

[Asher]

Ming, I do show respect to posters. Most posters, in fact.

I don't show respect to people I don't respect.
I don't respect you, because of **** like this.
I don't respect Urban Ranger, because he thinks whoever doesn't agree with him is a ******.

I get along with most people on the site, except people don't tend to PM you saying "I get along with Glonk".
