adelikat we put a wrapper around the c and call it
adelikat translating to C# is actually pretty hard
adelikat I tried that with an emulator
adelikat it was tricky translating macros and function pointers to the C# equivlanets
adelikat but then I ran into a ***someFunction and gave up
Zanoab that is what I love and hate about low-level languages
ais523 adelikat: a program I wrote recently had a void ***** in
ais523 that said, a) it was the easiest way to solve the problem, but b) the problem was intentionally contrived so that that would happen
adelikat :P
adelikat I feel like *** means you fucked up
ais523 adelikat: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ThreeStarProgrammer
adelikat yeah, I'm not too interested in contrived examples
Zanoab what about ******?
Zanoab is it double fucked or does it cancel itself out?
adelikat nah, you are just trolling at that point
adelikat *** means you are a bad programmer and shoudl feel bad
adelikat **** means you are probably hacking around a bad programmers badness

Destroying those categories we were talking about can't be done imo. Because they set rules for judging depending on goals.

Let's see.
Imagine there's some post by, say Spikestuff, that was attacking, say, Scrimpy. Scrimpy dislikes that attack, sends Nach a PM telling this was a bad act by Spike. Nach contacts Spike in order to punish him.
- Hey Spike, I need to punish you for something.
- For what?
- I can't tell you, or someone's privacy will be violated.

For a moment I honestly thought that you were willing to have an actual conversation.
I was thinking that about you all that time, repeatedly posting things that I consider important o ponder, and getting nothing on that regard. I state that I for example am always ready to discuss my reasons and check how solid they are, and if they are, it will be revealed. You don't seem to stand that approach, because you do not discuss what is said to you, you cherry pick things that have uncertain importance and only discuss them in a way that helps you repeat all you've already said. Your views do not evolve at all during all these years, and that's the main problem IMO.
Why I said that there is a possibility? Because if you try to analyze the actual event, there might be someone's fault, and there might be not. You never know if you don't ponder, abstract and analyze. But even if you do, you should have courage to acknowledge fully what you find out. The same applies to me, of whoever else.

Thank you for acknowledging that. And I am saying that completely honestly and sincerely; this isn't sarcasm or anything like that.
I did not acknowledge anything. I stated that possibility exists, as abstractly as possible.

I know I have not always behaved in the best possible ways. Do I deserve a cold shoulder from some people here (including many staff members) for my past behavior? Probably.
But I really think that a line is crossed when that "cold shoulder" becomes outright hostile behavior and insults. I really think that some standards of behavior ought to be expected from site staff, even when dealing with a person they might not like.
Ignorance is slavery. You're not going to change or improve, the thread is pointless.

I'll actually state what I was implying in my previous post. Derailing one thread is not good, but it's tolerable, it just happens, people have weaknesses. If it happens continuously over a decade, it isn't going to be a thing one would be loved for. But it's still kinda tolerable, since it's not too damaging.
Now consider this situation. There's a crime one does, there's a judgment he gets in the court. And he disagrees with that judgment, and makes an appeal, telling "yes, I did it, and it deserves some measures towards me, but I believe they were condemned inappropriately, so here's my appeal". Makes sense? Yes.
But when one doesn't consider he did that crime in the first place, or even doesn't bother to address it, like it never happened, and the judgment was entirely phoney, regardless of constant proof, this isn't the approach that is leading that person anywhere at all.
In other words, yes, there might have been improper treatment. But when the entire grounds for it are completely ignored, this becomes talking to one's reflection in the mirror, where every absurd one says is being agreed upon by all means. I call that ignorance and keep thinking that ignorance is slavery.

Is this official policy? If someone "derails threads to the point of being locked", then that person is free to be insulted by staff members, and his formal complaints to the primary administrator ignored?
You seem to be missing the point.
Thanks for putting words I didn't say in my mouth and telling me how bad they are. You're entirely not missing the point at all.

Not only was it completely dismissed with a short reply, what is worse, behind the scenes the primary administrator then either forwarded it or told in detail about it to this staff member, who then proceeded to send me a somewhat hostile, if not even mocking, remark about it (with enough detail to make it clear that he either had read it, or told in detail about it.) I was not informed of this by the primary administrator.
This might shock you, but there's a whole hidden staff subforum, where we always tell each other ugly things about community members. We're bad people, we need to do this regularly.
So yeah, how dares staff discuss community related matters with each other. No way!

- The complainant's messages not being blatantly ignored.
There's a guy called Billy. He is obsessed with visiting the forum once in a while, under different accounts, and posting nonsense. He's probably not deadly damaging, but stably pointless and disruptive. I don't remember what he was banned for in the first place, but this is an example of a borderline for diplomacy and professionalism towards every person in the world. If a person does not want to start taking his own actions seriously and responsibly, he has no right to accuse anyone else in not taking him seriously. Sure, there's a default friendly attitude given to members that haven't acted disruptively, but there's a way for a member to change this attitude into worse, and if it happens, the least responsibility that person could take is when he accuses others in that fact. Just because it helps no one.
Warp wrote:
As for the question of whether a staff member should be allowed to insult people and be hostile towards them, even when they are not doing "staff duty", I would posit that they should not.
I think it cannot be judged as yes/no. It depends, just like with our favorite Fair Use terms. If a staff member insults you when you meet him on the street in person, should he be punished site-wise? If it happens via PM? If it happens on public forum? If it actually concerns site handling? I don't think these are all equal. But in all these cases, the first thing to weigh is reasonability of the actions, not just their tone. And this is again when it comes to looking for a reason in oneself. I tried that, see how many people actually posted bad things to consider.
