| I'm posting this as an extra posting simply enough because I wanted it to be noticed and to express my opinions on the subject. Yes, I know I was asked to not post new topics in the above the line boards, but I am rather upset about this whole thing.
I might otherwise have just simply been quiet about it but I am starting to feel like I shouldn't even bother to contribute. First, Jonsey has to ask me to reduce the number of these new threads in "above the line" forums because it's overloading the slime here and apparently the software can't handle it because the RSS feed writer can't handle the extra threads. To paraphrase John McLane in Die Hard when he's told that the police on the plaza are covered in glass because he caused a huge glass shattering explosion that killed two terrorists that were shooting at them, "RSS Feed? Who the fuck gives a shit about an RSS feed?" If you've got a problem with a piece of software designed to handle message posting being unable to handle new message posting - which if any part of the functionality fails, it's still a failure - then the answer is to fix the goddam software. And if this is such a huge issue, why wasn't it posted on the system as a warning? Why is this whole issue over too many topics in the above-the-line forums directed only to me? But the other thing that really bothered me is that Jonsey is about to pull the same stunt over at JC in which he's about to nuke a board and offered not so much as a discussion about it, just the edict of a dictator that says that it's his board - which it is, he has every right to run it any way he wants - and he's going to do what he pleases whether the people there like it or not. Well, I'm sick and tired of being whipsawed over the whole thing. This has to do with the Starcraft board over on JC. First he says that if it didn't get more participation that it would be destroyed. Then we did, but he proceeds to say - some time after the conversation had been over more participation - that the qualification wasn't what he said but an entirely different thing but he'd let it stand. So now, he's going to cancel the Starcraft board and replace it with something else. Plus the whole point of saying that because his software has problems generating an RSS feed - which I find less than credible as I have not even seen HOW to get an RSS feed on here - that I basically have to discontinue new topics (like this one) in favor of moving to the ghetto of the "below the line" forums that are empty or mostly empty. I mean, if you didn't want me to continue to post here, why not just say that, why make up some bullshit excuse about the cretinous reprobates being unable to handle the extra postings or that some undeclared and unannounced RSS feed not working? I just have the feeling - I've had it before - that (and I see it here from people who demand I stop posting) I'm really not wanted. Or that they're not interested in what I have to say. Or nobody cares about what I say. And I'm getting to the point that I personally don't even know if I care about bothering to contribute. I want to be able to make a valuable contribution. I can live with people disagreeing with me. I can even live with idiots who disagree with me and don't even have the words to describe why they disagree other than an undescribed and undefined dislike of my opinions. But to have it that nobody cares about what I say - and in part I can understand why Jonsey is concerned, a number of my postings were single-item threads with no response - or that it seems like my comments are hated or considered unimportant - then I don't think I should bother. There's no point in saying things for public consumption if nobody is going to read it, and/or nobody has anything to say. I've probably rambled on and on about a bunch of things that have been bothering me for quite a while. Maybe there's no real reason I should be making this stand now, perhaps it just boiled over and an otherwise trivial thing set me off. But I'm not happy about this whole matter, because I get the general impression that I don't. |
