This is nonsense. They stepped down voluntarily because of unfounded accusations of such (and because they felt their time was better spend elsewhere than to deal with such community drama).

They deleted my comments that broke no rules and the reason for it was "annoying". Not to mention they broke the rules themselves by being an asshole. That's far from "unfounded". At best, you can disagree.

They deleted an entire comment chain of nothing but off-topic brickering started by you being a grammar Nazi after they decided to be the adult in the room and fix the title you objected to.

I made one comment because the title was lacking a key piece of information which was frustrating, and provided an explanation on why it was frustrating.

They responded with a childish and asshole response, which breaks the rules by the way. I'm not sure how that makes them "the adult in the room".

[–] poVoq@slrpnk.net 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The title was perfectly understandable and they were the adult in the room by ultimately giving in and fixing what you complained about.

They could have just not responded with an asshole comment. They could have not done anything and ignored me.

What did they do instead? Lash out at me like I was making a personal attack.

That's not very "adult" behavior.

You could have also not have been a grammar Nazi. It was clearly you that started the debate, don't expect people to adhere to higher standards than you yourself are willing to adhere to.

Calling me a grammar Nazi is not necessary.

I was merely voicing my frustration with the title that lacked information and I felt I had to go into the article to find.

I wasn't berating anyone in particular, like you are trying to do to me right now.

Can a mod delete this comment chain :p
