PeriodicallyPedantic,

THANK YOU. Finally some recognition around this place

PeriodicallyPedantic,

Lol perhaps 😅

It was a small community dedicated to shit talking another community, neither of which I was part of. A few posts showed up in my feed and one had a take I thought was kinda unreasonable, so I commented. I had a nice discussion with one community member, but OP came in hot. After a half-hearted effort to try to defuse, and being blatantly lied to in a few replies, I just told him he was a conniving liar.

A few days later I tried to comment on a different post, but I was banned.

Not a big deal, I’m not invested in either community, but it made me think of the struggles growing Lenny from these small nascent communities, into more more mature communities.

PeriodicallyPedantic,

Yes! I didn’t wanna say mods suck. It is an important and often thankless job.

Just that small communities without many mods are at risk of getting a bad apple.

PeriodicallyPedantic,

I mean, if some lies, and I come with receipts and tell them that they’re bad for doing so, I should get a ban? That doesn’t seem right.

PeriodicallyPedantic,

That was pretty much exactly the case here, afaict.

PeriodicallyPedantic,

I think this is good, as long as the user gets informed a) they they’re banned and b) what rule they broke.

A warning first would also be nice, especially if it’s in the community rules 😛

PeriodicallyPedantic,

I’m ok with that.

If someone repeatedly and probably tells untruths, and then doubles down when confronted with evidence, I’m ok making that leap to calling them a liar.

PeriodicallyPedantic,

I personally exclusively use it to generate photos of products I wish were real, and then get angry that I can’t buy them

PeriodicallyPedantic,

Don’t go chasing waterfalls

PeriodicallyPedantic,

I know that they’re going to have it their way, or nothing at all…

PeriodicallyPedantic,

Correction: Why is tasty unhealthy food so much easier than tasty healthy food?

PeriodicallyPedantic,

That is my understanding as well. But that wouldn’t work in the context of the joke, where god just designed everything.

PeriodicallyPedantic,

Adding enough butter, sugar, salt, etc is easy, and makes it unhealthy. Making it taste good without lots of butter, sugar, salt is hard.

That’s kind of my entire point

PeriodicallyPedantic,

I guess? I always thought it was ironic.

But then I suppose that any publicity is good publicity.

PeriodicallyPedantic,

True. My bad.

I always considered it to be an ironic meme, but at some point any publicity is too much publicity.

PeriodicallyPedantic,

Sure, and if I fall off a cliff, the ground at the bottom is just trying to help me stay out of the earth’s core 😏
