“When you lack an intelligent rebuttal, resort to a personal attack that suggests a sub 70″
Posted by a non-mod, towards a mod, deleted by a mod:
“the documentation above would suggest your reaction is that of an ignorant moron .”
(And please not the latter even SPECIFICALLY refers to “your reaction”, while the former is clearly directed at the target’s own IQ directly)
Can someone suggest what the substantive difference here is that led to one being deleted, and one being allowed to stand (aside from the fact in the former, author Sully is a mod, and target Not Kidding isn’t, and in the later, I, the author, am not mod, but targetObey is? And we all know this is not an isolated example, don’t we?)
I would hope that this time, the discussion isn’t simply shut down as result of no one in the Den being willing or able to explain. I haven’t posted on BNR since my prior Den post was closed after holding feet to the fire, and the collective blisters on Centurion feet got too painful. And I won’t post again until a reasonable explanation that parses out the real difference is provided. This inconsistency really needs to be resolved, and eliminated going forward if the De and BNR mods intention is to maintain a fair and level playing field.
