I read more and more posts like this and I have noticed a slight nervous tick appear.
Will it get worse and have I anything further to fear?
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

It might. And, you have nothing to fear but your own
calandalaphobia.

Not at all. You aren't he. Neither of us can truly understand
what another person's feelings would be. I think I'm going
to start a poll, to see just how many were indeed contacted.
Not that that's conclusive, but more than a couple of no's would
indicate that this is a pretty extensive issue, I think.


Why should people who were not pranked or people who were pranked, contacted about it, and who said that they had no problems with being pranked by admins be put a no admin pranks list, Calandale?

What would such a poll just asking if they were told about the list prove?

People NOT pranked might wish to avoid being so.
I KNOW that some who had never suffered such
were particularly disturbed by my prank affecting
them. More so than those who regularly had pranks
pulled.

Those who were contacted, and denied a problem,
might well have answered differently, had they
known about such a list. If the contact was only
done by ONE staff member, and they had any
suspicions of that member, they might have seen
it as a form of taunting. Why I think all private
correspondence about staff issues should actually
be monitored. Perhaps a special account, which
all staff can access? There's likely some sort of mod
to handle this, out there.

More likely, a member might feel that having their profile
changed back quickly would make them objects of derision.
A number of people (rightfully) became such, in the wake
of my prank.

That the staff used only it's own bias in determining who
would be on the list. Something which Odeon has been
denying.

Not twisting ANYTHING. You just are too close to the issue
to see that not asking one person, while asking others, about
a secret list, is a form of discrimination. Or, is your TOM so good
that you are a mindreader?

If you already know the answer, you don't have to ask.

So, the reason so few were asked is because
you are indeed a mindreader?

LOL

No. As I've said elsewhere, the issue probably simply slipped below the radar. We're aspies, many have trouble starting things or finishing them, and some are simply lazy. I'm all that.

I don't think the exact mechanism of how that list was to be filled was ever fully thought out. :-\

Yet, I DID repeatedly ask, in the admin forum,
and later in public, that there be a public notification.

Will you post a video of you talking about your haircut/lack of moustache/anything or perhaps do the dicky do that didn't work out before?  :zoinks:

I tend to skim through your posts, so I probably missed most of those.
