That solves it for me. It has been fun. Hope everyone enjoys themselves. Goodbye.

Well in my circles, calling someone a drama queen is calling them a mincing / flaming homosexual. Different cultures different interpretations. Either way, a representative of hubdub should not be calling me this or anything else personal. – epicur, on June 04, 2008 21:36

Infernal, I disagree with you.

What ever anyone wants to attribute to the cursing and the drama queen comment is opinion (search George Carlin's seven dirty words for a ruling for cursing). Either way the drama queen is a personal attack. A super user should not be personally attacking someone in the comments. They are supposed to : "Keep an eye on the comments for inappropriateness and problems, reporting or resolving them as necessary." see super user line 4 section D.

Anyway, I say it is time for us to wait for this super user role to be sorted out by an administrator before we make this trail too long to follow.

So now we have super user Kruijs and Mork calling me ignorant (see comments in previous post). I just want to be sure I understand you both correctly. This is so black and white for you two that I'm clearly ignorant. Oh well, I guess I just have to wait for an administrator to sort this out.

Kruijs, you didn't point to a disagreement. All you said was I should re-read it. I'm saying I don't need to read it again because I know what it says. We disagree on interpretation. My rereading it will not help. And by the way, saying that I'm doing something ignorant is calling me ignorant. Can you understand that? – epicur, on June 04, 2008 20:55

I read it enough. Now is the time for interpretation from an administrator. – epicur, on June 04, 2008 20:43

You did not state clearly that we (epicur and kruijs) were directly arguing in the comment section of the Bardot question before this forum thread. – epicur, on June 04, 2008 20:40

I accept your apology, I still feel Hubdub needs to comment on this though. – epicur, on June 04, 2008 20:36

Well maybe Hubdub needs to clarify, because I see an amount of responsibility that they have given you. – epicur, on June 04, 2008 20:36

Kruijs, you can claim anything you want, but the perception of your representing hubdub in some way is there. – epicur, on June 04, 2008 20:29

kruijs - You and mork (along with mork cursing) called me a nitpicker and attacked my common sense before comment 17 and 18. – epicur, on June 04, 2008 20:28

kruijs I read about the super user before. I didn't remember every detail from skimming it from whenever they added this feature. You should clearly state in your comment that you have been a part of this argument. You are not an unbiased individual just coming to this conversation. What about the cursing? What about the accusations without evidence? Either way, a representative of hubdub has to act better then this.

A comment on the problem "A Hubdub representative (super user Mork) not being a good role model for Hubdub?" in Hubdub:

Try calling a closeted homosexual (or for that matter a burly hetrosexual guy to his face) a "queen" or in this case "drama queen" and see how they react. – epicur, on June 04, 2008 20:08

You can't even apologize without adding another attack. This isn't about whether I'm sensitive about my sexual orientation, I'm not. This is about a person that hubdub trusts acting this way.

Kruijs. I just read your link and it sure sounds like you represent Hubdub in a way. Words and phrases such as "trust" , "Users must be seen to be responsible", "provide intelligent, balanced judgements", and IMPORTANTLY - "Keep an eye on the comments for inappropriateness and problems, reporting or resolving them as necessary."

You may not be an administrator, but you do represent the site in a way.

A Hubdub representative (super user Mork) not being a good role model for Hubdub?

Problem with a hubdub representative (super user) cursing, making accusations without evidence, and making bigoted sexual orientation slurs. See comments #14, 23 & 31 of the following question : http://www.hubdub.com/e/Market/Will_B...

If Hubdub is going to allow its representatives to act this way, then it is no place for me.

Sounds like a good edition, although I hope my highest net worth achieved never considerably (or for any real length of time) exceeds my current net worth.
