@Breezey BreeI totally understand.
The whole project is a mess and any feedback we give as mods is either ignored or patched like they patch the whole platform without fixing the root cause of the mess.
If they had only used their own platform as we do and had seen how some people behave around certain others, they would have realised that mixing them was a seriously bad idea.
Before, people stayed on their own sites, swapping long distance missiles. Now, they are in there with bayonets fixed, stabbing each other in any way they can.
Several people have tried to get me involved with Chit Chat but I have declined each time.
First and foremost, I have a lot of responsibilities elsewhere and have had extra work anyway, and that channel is a full time job in itself.
But secondly, I find that sort of thing totally draining so that's why I don't even read it.
I hate conflict. Oh, i will take someone head on if I need to, but I much prefer to talk things through and find a solution, but I doubt many of those on there can be reasoned with. The trolls and clone makers certainly can't.
I have always tried to stay out of the fighting factions in the 10 years that I have been on Disqus, and will talk to most people within reason as long as things stay neutral regards others that I may talk to that they don't like.
And I have ended up sharing short exchanges on these new channels with people that I have avoided for years because others I know don't like them. But it isn't in my nature to ignore people just because of that. I react to people depending on how they are around and towards me. I don't judge otherwise. And If I am modding for Disqus, I follow their rules and not what might apply somewhere else where I mod or on my own sites.
You can't please all of the people all of the time, so I do what leaves me feeling the most comfortable.
Try to put Disqus out of your head. It's Crazy Town on a good day!
I really hope you had a lovely day yesterday.
