I think you are taking him far more seriously than he intends. I don't think anyone here has negative intentions, and intentions I think are worth something. I bet if you changed the way you interact to a more friendly tone I bet you would see an immediate change in how he responds to you. We talk all the time and I've seen angry and I'm telling you he isn't angry he is playing with you, or at least thats how I am pretty sure he sees it.
Well his "playing around" sure looks a lot like an angry internet loser having a tantrum to those who don't know him quite as well.
is an unthinking ideologue, , not free speech. Maybe this place will always be an ideological copy of Voat, if it ever starts to drift from that I think he will move to introduce censorship to retain control.
Well, I disagree, I founded the place for free speech, he respects my choices even if he doesn't agree. Its not like we have never had a disagreement. He has always honored my wishes. This will always be a place for free speech regardless of what the users believe I won't allow any opinion to be silenced, short of pro pedophilia stuff. I believe believes in that cause as well.
Some would argue the same about you pushing an ideology regardless of contradictions in the facts.
In the early days of poal, many came here and tried to use downvotes to silence dissenting opinions, I repeated asked people to stop, I made a call and I believe didn't agree with me then to make votes public, then I back pedaled and made it so just downvotes are visible. is dedicated to free speech, he will argue with you when he disagrees but I have never once seen him abuse his power. Isn't that the point of discussion boards such as this to make your case, try and sway people to your way of thinking? I think its also to build relationships and have conversations but on some level its for persuasion as well.
There's not much point in us trying to debate 's character - we have different experiences of him and time will tell - I think you're naive.
but I have never once seen him abuse his power.
Abuse of power is too strong a label, but it's really not a good sign .
You're not only pushing kosher fake news, you're also a drama queen. 🤣
You can put back your little red NPC handbook in your pocket, that doesn't work here.
