For such a useful website it has a really annoying pop-up.

    Because you got banned on the first one.

    Yeah, I have never denied that. I was banned on one instance so I branched out to different instances. I decentralized, which lines up with the entire spirit of the Fediverse.

    Getting banned, and then making a bunch of accounts on new instances saying “Despite the attempts to silence me, I’m still here” is evading the ban.

    I disagree. Evading a ban is coming up with a DIFFERENT user name, then going into places I was banned from and continuing to post. I have never posted on .world since the ban (other than to respond to the thread you participated in and I worked with .world admin on that and made them and my admin aware of it).

    By me keeping the same username across instances, I’m being transparent. It would be very easy to just pick a new name, and go back on .world and post. That would be ban evading, which I don’t do.

    Me posting on another instance isn’t a ban evade by any definition. Admins agree.

    I quoted mod logs of you violating the rules with incredible aggressiveness, pissing off almost everyone, and posting unhinged messages to people.

    Nope. You have pissed people off, does that make you a troll? I never posted any unhinged messages. Please quote one in this thread. I wanna see. I haven’t changed what or how I post/reply at all. I stand by what I say and believe in.

    still posting ragebait like “transracial” and content from Fox News and Breitbart

    “Ragebait” is posting something to piss people off on purpose. I don’t do that. I post whatever I find interesting, regardless of source, and I follow rules of the communities. And when I don’t, they remove.

    I recently had a community say my source wasn’t good enough and gave me a list of sources that they thought were acceptable. So now I only post from those sources.

    Not everyone hates Fox News and Brietbart. You do, and that’s perfectly fine. If you modded a community, I wouldn’t post from those sources. But those sources are not outlawed in the US or the earth or Lemmy. Even if you wish they were.

    I’m not sorry that I don’t hate Trump as much as Lemmy does. But apparently a huge chunk of the US doesn’t either, since he won popular vote.

    But I still didn’t vote for him nor do I think he will be a good president. And I don’t think that just because I post a news article that is favorable to him makes me a “nazi.”

    A lot of your postings and the sheer magnitude of them sound sincerely unhinged,

    Please provide a sample of what you think was unhinged. I’m not being a dick, I honestly want to see what you think is unhinged. I stand by everything I said. And in fact, send people links to my previous conversations when I don’t want to repeat the same thing.

    came back with a friendlier approach

    I haven’t changed my tone at all, nor do/did I see a reason to.

    because that’s trolling.

    Trolling is saying things just TO piss people off, not saying things that happen to piss people off.

    But, you’re the one who chose to come in and reply to my comment, when I’d taken steps to block you,

    It’s not my job to find out if someone has blocked me or not. I didn’t even know you blocked me until you mentioned it at the start of this conversation by saying the variation of “in spite of my attempts to block you…”

    Not only that, I was agreeing with your comment when I replied.

    It seems to me now matter how or what I reply, you are determined to think I have some ulterior motive here. I’d really like you to just say what that is.

    Don’t be vague, and say “you like to annoy people.” I feel that under the surface, you actually think my MO is something specific and sinister. If you feel that would break this subs rules, feel free to DM me.

    But I am really, honestly curious what you think my goal is. People mentioned before that by me saying I supported third-party, it was to “throw the election.” Tho even if every single person that voted third-party would have voted for Harris, she still would have lost since the margin was so big.

    And now plenty of people talk about voting or creating a third party. lol

    I’m very curious of what you think my motive is. Or maybe it is just that you think I’m here to annoy. Or maybe you won’t answer because you’ve blocked me.

    To your point, this is probably off-topic for this community anyway.

    Either way, best of luck to ya, mate!

    It’s just Lemmy, man… :)

      Please quote one in this thread. I wanna see. I haven’t change how I posted or reply at all since the .world thing.

      Sure:

      Keep crying, crybaby. Hey, remember this? You’re silly fake promise and you crying for attention when you said: Hey when you have a single comment with positive ratings ill happily discuss the topic with you. My awesomesauce reply: Let’s try just a few comments and a few posts! And are you enjoying the attention? Because you seem to be begging for it. lmao https://lemmy.world/post/20261174 https://lemmy.world/post/19800583 https://lemmy.world/post/19488653 https://lemmy.world/post/19338644 https://lemmy.world/post/20131322 https://lemmy.world/post/19223322 https://lemmy.world/post/19040512 https://lemmy.world/post/19772405 https://lemmy.world/post/19945372 https://lemmy.world/post/19770730 https://lemmy.world/post/19347559 https://lemmy.world/post/19853130 https://lemmy.world/post/19870421 https://lemmy.world/post/19277367 https://lemmy.world/post/19802787 https://lemmy.world/comment/12140111 https://lemmy.world/comment/12140165 https://lemmy.world/comment/12140453 https://lemmy.world/comment/12138561 https://lemmy.world/comment/12245577 https://lemmy.world/comment/12376028 https://lemmy.world/comment/11661488 https://lemmy.world/comment/11844984 https://lemmy.world/post/19528219 https://lemmy.world/post/19309643 https://lemmy.world/comment/11962167 https://lemmy.world/comment/12218137 https://lemmy.world/comment/11796786 https://lemmy.world/comment/11696297 https://lemmy.world/post/19077253

      You sent that five different times to the same person, copy-pasting it, after a long and similarly emotional argument with them. That’s not an issue of free speech and the viewpoint you’re trying to express. That’s an issue of, you need to step away from the computer, get to a better place with yourself, because it’s not good for the community you are posting it in, or for the person you’re talking to, or for you.

      I don’t know if pasting sections from the horror fiction counts, since it’s “supposed to be horror,” but that was a lot more unhinged. You found a way to write a long and descriptive story where your enemies on Lemmy got killed, but then could innocently claim it was just some creative writing unrelated to any specific people, and people in horror stories are supposed to die, and it’s normal.

      It’s not my job to find out if someone has blocked me or not. I didn’t even know you blocked me until you mentioned it at the start of this conversation by saying the variation of “in spite of my attempts to block you…”

      Fair. But it also shouldn’t be my job to find every one of your dozen plus accounts that keep popping up, and block all of them, and then any new ones you make.

      You get blocked, banned, and in these hostile exchanges with people because you ignore the social contract. That’s on you, that’s your decision. Again, it’s nothing to do with the content you post, or not only because of the content that you post. So, it’s going to annoy people if they block you and then find more content from you popping up, even if you have made a case for why “I’m allowed to do it! The admins said I could! It’s just a new account!”

      It seems to me now matter how or what I reply, you are determined to think I have some ulterior motive here. So before you block me, I would really like you to just say what that is.

      Don’t be vague, and say “on you like to annoy people.” I feel that under the service you actually think my MO is something specific and sinister. If you feel that would break this subs rules, feel free to DM me.

      But I am really, honestly curious what you think my goal is. People mentioned before that by me saying I supported third-parites it was to “throw the election.” Tho even if every single person that voted third-party would have voted for Harris, she still would have lost since the margin was so big.

      I truly have no idea. I didn’t say I thought you had an ulterior motive, although I certainly think what you described is possible. I’m just describing your behavior.

        And I don’t think that was unhinged. If someone keeps the argument going, I keep the replies going.

        But it also shouldn’t be my job to find every one of your dozen plus accounts that keep popping up

        And it’s not. Feel free not to worry about every account I make.

        I didn’t say I thought you had an ulterior motive

        Fair enough. I was curious and was probably reading too much into your anger.

        I don’t know if pasting sections from the horror fiction counts, since it’s “supposed to be horror,” but that was a lot more unhinged.

        Again, not unhinged. Those stories are direct parodies of the absurdity of Lemmy and how passionate people are.

        Even the name of the series is “Tales from the Cryptic Lemmy.” Get it? Tales from the Crypt. The 1960’s outrageous comic and the cheesy 1980’s tv show. And I still write them and just added a story and am finishing up editing one now.

        In fact, they stories are still up: https://sh.itjust.works/c/talesfromthecrypticlemmy

        And I have never written any stories about any specific person on Lemmy. Inspired by the outrageous things said to me, yes, but that’s what creativity is. Just like singers write songs about shit people throw at them in real life, and turn it into an awesome tune. (Hi, Taylor Swift–I’m a Swiftie. :))

        Also, let’s not forget that you said you didn’t even read them. So are ya saying that you have read them now?

        Come on, fess up… it’s ok, we’re friends now. Ya finally reading my stuff? :)

        By the way, my most recent story plays on the undercurrent of how some want Lemmy to just stay one way, an echo chamber. Kind of like, you know, a lack of color. It’s a fun pulpy horror story that I’m sure you will find some way to twist into me being unhinged:

        The Lady of Endless White - https://sh.itjust.works/post/30746811

        "Dr. Caldwell answers a call for help at a strange, colorless mansion, but what he uncovers is anything but pure. In the Lady of Endless White, shadows linger even in the brightest of places!”

        See the pulpy cheese of that? Picture the crypt keeper saying it. Kinda one of my best stories to be honest. :)

        Dude, it’s Lemmy, don’t take it all so seriously.

        And I’m actually writing another Crypic Lemmy story as we speak, so look for that tomorrow.

        Thanks, friend!
