This is a thread for people to apply in. Maybe you guys should take this discussion somewhere else if you really need to talk about this.

If a mod wants to move the posts, I welcome it.

It seems a comment of a vague idea I spouted offends people.

I'm not offended :/

And congrats on Mythic!

For someone applying to be a monitor, you're pretty bad at reading people if you think I'm "offended"and not just... you know, discussing the idea with you.

If you insist continuing this.

That was a poor choice of words.

How about this: For an idea I offhandedly offered at Slash, an idea I put only a small amount thought into before posting, you and Rocket seemed to decide to poke holes in it for no reason,
Why?

I responded to someone else with it. And Cheat responded to me in a positive manner.
What further need was there for discussing it?

Then when I try to point out the merits of the idea, you decide to dance around semantics.
Why is that?
It not like it's going to be implemented without strict review. If at all.

Do you think Cheat would just give any random member mod powers?
You have no reason for trying to poke holes in it, yet here we are.

That must mean I'm offended, right?
What's wrong with discussing it? Maybe something could come of it, like ironing out the problems it could potentially have.
Seriously, all I've done here is try to talk about your idea, and you're getting overly defensive about it. You did this before when I talked to cheat and you replied with "clearly Zizzy knows how to run your site better than you do". Do you understand that by spotting something that could be a problem, I'm not attacking you?

Last time.
There's nothing more to discuss after this.

I guess posting "That was a poor choice of words" meant that my post was intended exactly like it was typed, eh?

Nothing, but do you think that Cheat and the mods can't do a good enough job of that?
There aren't many problems it can have.

Overly defensive, sure why not. Because you and Rocket acting like the site police about something that Cheat would never implement without care is totally needed.

I probably said something like that because, guess what, you're second guessing the admin, again here as well.
He's not infallible, but he's not as carefree as you seem to want to think.

And yes, you're not attacking me.
But obviously me choosing wrong words and telling you I did do so means that I feel exactly as I posted.

Seriously, if you have that much of a problem with what I posted, then bring up your concerns if Cheat ever even talks about deciding to implement it.
But stop trying your hardest to deconstruct something that doesn't need it.
I've said it wasn't a completed idea multiple times now, yet both of you seems to want to nitpick.

-Doesn't matter if the staff can discuss the idea, they've been open to other people's opinions in the past and I don't see what's wrong with giving my input.
-"There aren't many problems it can have." From the POV of the guy who proposed the idea, maybe not.
-Site police? For what, talking to you? I guess you're passive aggressiveness over something as trivial as this is needed too, right?
-"Not infallible" - and therefore, I can challenge whatever he says whenever I want. Get over it.
-I know it's not a completed idea, that's why I replied in the first place.
