Respect

It's a perfect answer even though I do say it myself.

Clearly not the answer you hoped for.

Tbh I think you demonstrated exactly my point. On a thread about respect, I've asked someone what they mean and you've jumped in to tell me to shut my mouth. You're clearly desperate for an argument for some reason. 🤷‍♂️

No you asked me what an unbiased response would be to the Queen's death and I told you.

I didn't tell YOU to shut your mouth.
 
Tbh I just think the mods are getting a bit of unfair stick. As borolad pointed out nearly all the republican messages were people saying they don't want a monarchy but compliments to the queen.

Someones asking for a neutral mod, is it so unfair to ask what they mean by that?
Yes but Borolad doesn’t help himself by posting facts, like the one on Nosmo’s post about leaving the board for a while….

As biped mammals I suppose the tendency is to think in terms of left and right, black and white etc.
It is an infinite spectrum.
Texts are easily misconstrued as there’s no tone, body language to pick up on. It depends how you’re feeling. Respect is earnt.

Resist the vultures and avoid their traps.
They’ll start sniping as soon as.

No idea? Does Nosmo get reported often? Does he report a lot of other people? It's probably just a joke isn't it?
 
People are scared to post their real opinions even if it’s justified. A whiff of autocracy and fascism. There’s an old Ukraine thread that demonstrates it perfectly.

Hang on which is it? Are people scared to post their opinions cause its so autocratic here or do we need a raft of new "unbiased" mods to ban anyone not mourning sufficiently?

I had literally just finished working through 30 or so reports. Around half of them were reports of Nosmo King posting abuse. True story rather than a joke.
 
I would agree that it would've been " nice " for all posters to have simply posted Rest in Peace Elizabeth.
But, that was never going to happen and people shouldn't expect that it would've happened.
For those that demand or expect " respect" also have to " respect" other peoples differing thoughts
and point of views. It's not a one way street.

I'm a great believer in a Republic but I'm an even greater believer in freedom of speech.
I would hope that most would agree with at least the latter part of that sentence.

Time and a place and that wasn’t yesterday.

I understand that and I get it, however, one cannot draw a line in the sand and say that it's ok to say this
but it's not ok to say that, no matter what the subject.
That is not freedom of speech.
If you are a true believer in freedom of speech then then you should/ would agree?
