mjj29

(10:29:19 AM) mjj29: 'again'?
(10:29:33 AM) blah-wrk: this has been discussed many times.  on irc and in judge apps.
(10:29:48 AM) mjj29: I don't see how that gives you cause to be rude
(10:29:58 AM) mjj29: I'd like the judge community to be a pleasant place to interact
(10:30:04 AM) mjj29: you're making that harder
(10:30:42 AM) blah-wrk: i'm trying to keep it less awful by not wasting everyones time and energy on pointless topics
(10:30:55 AM) blah-wrk: if you don't like it take it to another room
(10:31:17 AM) mjj29: you could have done that more politely
(10:31:37 AM) mjj29: and you're not the arbiter of whether or not it's a waste of time or pointless
(10:32:10 AM) blah-wrk: you could stop talking about it and be less pedantic and awful in general, but we let that go ;)
(10:32:13 AM) mjj29: look, I'm not talking to you because I think it's wrong for you to point out that it's been discussed before and since we can't really do anything about it we don't need to do so again
(10:32:29 AM) mjj29: I might disagree with that, but it's reasonable
(10:32:40 AM) mjj29: but I think ythe way you presented it was not a particularly nice fashion
(10:32:41 AM) blah-wrk: we disagree on a lot of things
(10:32:49 AM) blah-wrk: it wasn't meant to be nice
(10:32:55 AM) blah-wrk: glad you caught on
(10:32:56 AM) blah-wrk: A+
(10:33:07 AM) mjj29: people not being nice is something that should be called out
(10:33:18 AM) mjj29: by choosing to not be nice you're choosing to make our community worse
(10:33:26 AM) mjj29: which is not something that I'd like to see
(10:33:38 AM) mjj29: so, please consider in future being nicer to people
(10:33:41 AM) mjj29: that's all (-
(10:33:42 AM) blah-wrk: we'll have to agree to disagree on that
(10:33:56 AM) blah-wrk: not being nice is a lot like not being sporting ;)
(10:35:02 AM) mjj29: sure, but it is part of teamwork and diplomacy and also attitude and maturity
(10:35:46 AM) blah-wrk: yep and those things also matter when choosing topics to discuss
(10:36:10 AM) mjj29: oh, I'm happy to admit that I have areas for improvement
(10:36:56 AM) mjj29: that does not stop me raising areas that others can improve on. "lapses of diplomacy and tact, either in person or in internet-based venue" seem to describe being rude on irc pretty well though
(10:37:14 AM) mjj29: besides, I am allowed not to have been involved in those previous discussions and hence not know about them
(10:37:24 AM) blah-wrk: you were involved
(10:37:40 AM) blah-wrk: in oh so many previous awful discussions heh
(10:38:03 AM) blah-wrk: maybe reflect on those privately instead of rabble rousing in the main
