Timelord2067 Neutral Tag For My Profile

[examplens]

I think here _  symbol made more confusion in this case. "star" plus _ in combination can be considered similar to usernames.

But the feedback much is a neutral was uncalled-for. Anyone who would confuse the 2 names would have to be super dumb. Some people have closely similar names here, and it doesn't mean they are trying to impersonate anyone.

Initially when I was joining the forum, I wanted to register using "Tash" but it was already taken, so I used "JeromeTash". It doesn't mean I had any ill intentions like trying to impersonate the user who had already taken the Tash name, and I don't think It would be necessary for anyone to leave a tag on any of the accounts for that matter.

I'm just trying to understand the similarity and the reason for the tag here. however, there are many similar usernames here, so the question is why the others are not tagged.
we currently have 3.3+ million registered usernames here, I guess it's not easy to find the desired username that is free.

That's true. I'm not even the only Foxpup on this forum. For the record, the other one is neither my alt nor an impersonator, just a littermate; there's a lot of us around. No need to tag us unless we start acting suspiciously. (More suspiciously than usual, I mean; we are all foxes, after all.)

I don't suppose you've heard how Lindgold is at the moment?

No. Should I have? Look, I know how much you enjoy linking unrelated people based on the most tenuous of connections, but this is a stretch, even for you.

... Paranoid FUD

I only asked because you're supposedly here in Australia and claim to be a part of the Furrie Community.

A mutual friend of ours recently mentioned they'd heard Grant was not well and wondered if I knew how he is going and whether I had any contact details etc.

Unfortunately,  I haven't heard from him since he moved to the north of Auckland some time ago.

And if Lindgold was also in Australia and/or been at all active in the furry community in the past two decades, that might mean something.

... More paranoid FUD ...

More like thirty plus years in active fandom not just on both sides of the ditch, but trips to the US, which makes me think you aren't what you are claiming to be.

Time to pull your head in

I never claimed to know the guy. If he's been recently become active in the fandom again, I know nothing about it. I also know nothing about his trips to Australia or the US. This may come as a surprise to you, but not every single furry in Australia knows every other furry who's ever been to Australia. I would hope that you realise how stupid that sounds, but I don't like to have false hope.

.... Frothing at the mouth. ...

Perhaps when I asked if you'd heard anything you should have stopped after your first word

No

Instead you went into an unwarranted, unfounded rant after I asked you a perfectly reasonable question about a friend's welfare.

I know that it is very easy for anyone to suspect someone for no apparent reason and attribute it to past events. I don't want forum and users to discriminate against anyone even if it's just a bullshit neutral tag for no apparent reason and that would surely annoy anyone a lot unless they actually get valid evidence. Now that I'm complaining, that shit is getting more and more on my profile. Is this what is called freedom of expression in this forum?

Well, one of the freedoms that this forum allows is certainly the use of a trust system that is not moderated, which means that anyone can post whatever they want to anyone else trust wall, no matter how much it makes sense. If you haven't already figured out how the forum works, I suggest you learn quickly - some things you can't change, which means you'll lose a lot of time and achieve nothing.

Besides, you probably know that if someone is not in DT their feedback does not affect the display in your profile - you still have Trust: +0 / = 0 / -0.

Timelord2067 posted the same exact rating for me and nutildah. He's clearly a few cards short of a full deck. You can't possibly convince him that he's wrong. The best you can do is convince others to not include him in their trust lists and at this time he's not in DT, so that's working.

I'll just park this quote here for you three snowflakes...

My opinion is that if you're too much of a snowflake to deal with one line of text, maybe the internet is not for you.

Did that thread get trashcanned?  Shoot, I thought it was a valid one even if it had been discussed before. 

Now, about the snowflake-slinging: I don't think anyone who's posted on this here page is truly as thin-skinned as you suggest.  People are reasonably annoyed when they get even a neutral trust with something that has even a hint of negativity, because that neutral will probably stay with them forever.

Well, one of the freedoms that this forum allows is certainly the use of a trust system that is not moderated, which means that anyone can post whatever they want to anyone else trust wall, no matter how much it makes sense.

I've always thought the trust system here is seriously flawed, if not outright broken beyond repair.  The only good thing about being able to leave any feedback for any person for any reason is to warn people of scammy behavior, since the forum doesn't moderate scammers.  Seriously, I can't think of any other good reason for allowing that. 

And to any newcomers here, listen to Lucius; that's the way the trust system works, like it or not.  But believe me, even if you get a negative from a non-DT member for frivolous reasons, you'll get over it sooner or later.

Got it, that must be why you keep inventing new reasons to post stupid shit on my trust page. That's how you "let it go", by constantly reminding users of this forum about your incessant petty grudges. Hey, whatever works for you. I'm happy to help. If you need to add something new there to cope with this post - feel free.

... and yet you felt the need to start a thread about me and update it from time to time about how hard done by you are over little old me.

This thread isn't about you or how slighted you feel.


As I say to you time and time again:
