You just described the majority of teenagers, whom probably fill 90% of this site. You also described a good portion of spam in particular, femininity aside, who reside in spam in most cases to get 'something off their chest' or use it as a 'closet of sorts' for their angst against things on the outside world. Congratulations. I would suggest that instead of judging a specific individual, that you try to understand them. However, this is spam and it will, as in all things spam, remain convinced that it has something better to offer.

You totally missed the point. It isn't that he was young or even a spammer, but that he was a person just like anyone else. It is obviously, as my pointing out suggested, a commonplace thing. The Mod title does not mean you are no longer capable of screwing up, or not suddenly have a group of people start hating you for whatever thing you've done, whether completely legit or not. Same for Kadaeux. He was obviously not fit for a Moderator position, but that doesn't make him any less of a human or any less deserving of being understood. You can argue it all you want, but disrespect of another person whether you agree with them or not is not the answer. That would be like me saying, that since we've now had this little back and forth, I should know dislike you cause of the way you view things, when aside from this, you could be an awesome person that I'm not taking the time to understand. Now, how silly does that sound?

What you consider idealism, I consider a blindfold. I don't expect any agreement, though. It's totally fine. :)

Also, I think "spam culture" is just an excuse and scapegoat for what goes on. However, I'll end it at that. I have no intention of getting anyone worked up.

I don't know if I'm reading the tone of these posts correctly, but I can feel passive-aggressiveness clouding the air.

Hey Sherlock, mind signing a nice friendly treaty to show the world how much of a nice and caring and friendly person you are?

If you are legitimately curious and want to continue this conversation, then you can message me. If you're just interested in making argument, then I would suggest you enjoy your time elsewhere. As I said, I do not wish to keep a conversation out in the open that may cause conflict with other users.

Sorry, I think you're confusing me with someone else.

Of all the debate and argument you've encountered in your time in spam, I can't imagine anything provocative I've said that would give you that idea. It's just a basic debate.If you feel defensive of your ideas and not really open to public scrutiny, that's understandable.

Probably confusing you with Sophi. She was the nicest and caringest person everest.

:(How about you sign to show the world how much of a mean, horrible, uncaring, dictatorial corrupt person you are instead?

Sorry, I think you have me confused with someone else again. I'm neutral, if anything. I live by my own rules / sense of justice -- 'good' and 'bad' are simply too black and white for me.
