Ya, no, actually I feel my conduct was completely out of line and I was more or less hoping that you'd be a troll out for drama so that my actions would've been retrospectively right.
It's not about being a 'new member', goddamnit, I'm usually the nicest I can to new members, it's about someone's first post being a wordless image - it looks like a troll kind of archetype that I've seen so many times I start assuming things! And that's not good O: Twitch-modding isn't good.
My message was never 'your sarcasm is worse than our sarcasm, new guy'
My message was 'what the hell is this? this has nothing to do with the thread. (and I was wrong here) DELETE!!'
The strike was to probe, actually. If you would turn out to be a reasonable person and not a troll, you'd reply with something different than ugly words and/or nonsense.
And you did, so I'll be working on removing that strike, and I'll try to learn a lesson about modding from this. I've went on a curve from 'always try to treat everyone the same' to 'TROLL!? TWITCH-DELETE' and I feel I should go back a bit.
In closing:
I'm sorry for making you out to be some kind of troll! Although you didn't exactly help with such an ambiguous post, but I could've handled it in like 100 better ways still.
I'm sorry for being a dick! I don't like being a dick. I'll try to be less of a dick.
The circlejerk is a good thing. Forums I go to either consist of constant whiny bickering or some kind of tranquil circlejerk. This forum is the latter and I'd like to keep it so. Also Smash is the only one in this thread who was actually being all 'man you guys rock', so making it out like we're all in that mindset looks silly, I think. I for one am not in some kind of euphoria over everyone's fantasticness or whatever. I'm happy because people are being entertained here, and I don't think a single person have been especially witty nor funny in this thread.
But apparently one dude thought so, so I guess that's nice for him!
Anyways goddamnit I feel I totally shat on all your fun by my conduct, so sorry again
I'll try to reset that strike counter.
Edit: haha, oops, that made you end up with +1 and -1 simultaneously! Oh well @ _ @; That will even it up a bit, I guess. (will look into resetting it compoletely, of course)
