A 100k hour probe isn't even really a big deal to get riled up over. It's just 11 years and they can just lurk the forum

from the mod/admin side the criteria for what gets a perma and what gets a 100k is not well defined so it's not surprising that it's even more confusing from the outside. You're right that this creates a fuzzy rule space where who the person is on either end matters more than it should. I don't really have a good answer to that though except to say that I will think about it more because this whole situation doesn't sit 100% comfortably for me

👍

last thing i will add is that this seems to have been preceded by a few statements that "we as admins are moving more towards a just do the thing and ask questions later approach, because in the past we acted too slow, and its not big deal and we can always reverse it later if we gently caress up."

that approach only works tho if admins actually reverse that stuff later after thinking about it and dont dig in their heels. not directed at you specifically but yeah. it is kind of a running joke at this point that "free <some poster>" threads never work when certain people dig in their heels, and at least sometimes they probably should.

i like the idea of event threads having a self destruct timer. will probably always be fuzzy on where to draw the line but it works pretty well in SAD tbh

ironic coming from the ik of the covid thread, I know

not speaking on behalf of anybody else here but I do my best to listen to everybody in good faith and consider whether I'm wrong in whatever situation. It doesn't mean I will always agree with everyone who says I was wrong, but I try hard not to give in to the temptation to dig in my heels - and I hope the number of boneheaded decisions I've modified afterwards shows I'm at least trying lol

yes for you specifically i think you have demonstrated you are doing pretty well at reconsidering decisions based on feedback.
