The amount of work she did to keep that pbp readable in just the 20 minutes I looked away... I appreciate this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormtracker Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Imma leave it at this: nobody here should ever fear being "punished" for speaking up to me because I have some dumb admin tag. As long as it's not disruptive, you can call me a dick or whatever. See snowfan's comment above. He said what he said and absolutely nothing should or will happen to him. He and everybody else here is free to express their opinions and i promise you that I won't use this weather board power (lol) on anybody. We are not above anybody here. I'm only an admin because I was a co-founder of the place. That's it. There's no board in their right mind that would make me an admin or mod. I have never banned anybody for going at it with me and I never will. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wasn't even the problem. Everybody has a right to do pbp, there isn't one designated special person. I wouldn't dare try to make some rule that only I can do pbp.

DDweatherman Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 The bottom line which I can of course confirm, because I’m the only one who knows what I’m thinking is that Randy was upset because I had posted the two upper level images saying there was a difference. He thought I was questioning his ability to read a map, which I definitely wasn’t and it went from there. there’s no doubt in my mind I thought he overreacted, and started bringing the heat. It is what it is, and I won’t lie I didn’t respond With my true reflection of what he said because he is the admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDweatherman Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 That being said, he is one of the faces of this page, and has been one of the main reasons I’ve enjoyed the threads for the last 10+ years. He has a direct reflection of our site and getting readership to the page tracking the storms, so I would prefer him to take that off-line next time for any new members that might see it coming from an admin.

DDweatherman Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 5 minutes ago, wxtrix said: because his project got postponed for a bit and he had time. back in Ye Olde Days we used to say that the Internet isn't "write only". if you had read the thread before you started posting you would have seen his post. alternatively, once you saw that he did have time to do a PBP, you could have just...stopped. there is no value to multiple PBPs if the main one is being done by someone knowledgeable. I’d tend to agree, less clogging of the thread. I didn’t check back because I was trying to compare the frames, but I don’t disagree with you in that regard.

stormtracker Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Yall see I've been ignoring him and he's STILL passively aggressively going at it. I came here to address the whole farce about "admin powers" and wanted to clear up that nobody here has to be afraid to express themselves because I'm an admin. I've been in fights before where I was called a fruit loop f*ggot and I lol'd and didn't do a thing to dude. Mostly because it was kinda funny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not me being passive aggressive, I’m just telling my side of the story. And I’m sorry someone said that crap to you, I’d never because I DO have a lot of respect for you; just not what you had to say to me today. I feel you were out of line, that’s my opinion, but like you said we’re entitled to it.

Happy to go at it in the DM’s or elsewhere. And you know what? We are all human and have bad days. Should he have lashed out as he did? Nope. But it happened. You responded in kind. At that point it should have ended. But it didn't. He said more things, and so did you. In fact, you continued to make passive aggressive comments even after I asked you numerous times to let it go. I came very close to giving you both timeouts and missing the storm because of it. I would highly suggest you let this go. Do not mention him again. Do not passive aggressively mention it again. Or you will miss this storm. I promise you that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again, I came here, for members, to address you trying to make me into some infallible God because I'm an admin. I needed to clear that up because that irritated me almost more than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
