You openly said you were deliberately breaking the rules

I temporarily broke ONE new stupid arbitrary rule that you didn't consult nor ask the community about, that I'm aware of.

You own the site but it's OUR community. Yet you won't even talk to me unless your crawling up my ass like a Chinese swab. You'd rather fester in drama than consider evolving.

Also, full disclosure, falling asleep last night I thought of another rule that I temporarily broke a year ago or more, or maybe less - while working on my CSS themes I broke your stupid 40 subs max rule that you arbitrarily invented to suppress my "power-mod abuses". Pre-crime - except there never was and never will be any power-mod crimes from me. I've even unloaded over over half the subs I created - and ironically they're now more administration burdens for you and the community. You made a stupid rule for me then, and you made a stupid rule now. The ONLY 2 rules I've temporarily broken were made directly for me. That is NOT a coincidence. You have targeted me.

Next time, post a survey to ask the community about what they think about potential new rules. Or ask them if anyone has ideas that may help SaidIt, rules or otherwise. I would wager there might be one or two good or great ideas worth considering even if not necessarily ripe for immediate implementation.

so if I was being consistent as you desire me to be, I would stop playing favorites and ban you.

Your site. Do as you please. You already do, without being fair, open, nor accountable.

Before you ban me you should be sure to ban the ABCs for being STABs for far worse and more frequent infractions.

If you want to ban me for a single extra post that I already deleted then you are free to do so. It will NOT look good for you. In fact, the perception will be much worse than some guy having 40+ subs. Correct your priorities.

But instead I keep giving you passes because you've been here a while, but maybe I should stop doing that?

Passes for what? You've hung more than 2 strikes over my head for years and I'm STILL not even sure what they were even fucking for because you REFUSE to be clear in your "management". If you were competent by now you would have sought management assistance, advice, or training - or consulted the community.

Your threats are tiresome. Why don't we discuss WHY you won't even engage me/us in proper discourse about ANY of the ideas, alternatives, and solutions I've proposed to improve SaidIt? As much as it would be nice, I don't even want them all to be implemented. I just want to be involved, make progress, evolve, improve, and make things better where ever we can. I would hope very much that you or others might build on those ideas to make them better or offer alternatives or even superior ideas.

We wouldn't have a problem if you weren't breaking the rules.

We wouldn't have a problem if you were consistent, fair, open, and accountable - and if you weren't dramatically riding my ass like a rodeo. When you jump on it, I'm always gonna tell you to buck off.

And you're doing it deliberately too... what am I supposed to do, just let you break the rules however you please?

Your rules are NOT the issue at all whether you consciously know it or not.

You have STABs problems first and foremost. That's not on me.

You have management problems. That's not on me.

You have unexpressed problems with me. That's not on me.

You have problems with dissenters. One is me, and I have good causes that you won't even discuss much less resolve.

Be smarter, be open, be responsible, and find solutions. Obviously they need not be from me. Or, you can remain an egotistical dictator.
