Carmelo Conversation

I think it's fair to warn you that we've had a lot of complaints of you starting and/or escalating arguments
You're fine for now, but if it continues, you'll be in punishment territory

I understand that, but if i can say that i didn't say anything offensive, and i don't think i started arguments, more like conversations, i don't think, "i like pvp more than pve" counts as an argument and if you read the conversation you will clearly see that people got mad just because i think a game is easy, that's hardly escalating imo
I expect some feedback on this, bc if people decide to get offended or mad bc of everything i say i don't have control over it, i don't think i come off as arrogant if i say: "I completed this game lv 1 and i'm generally not good at games, so i think the game is pretty easy and you just need patience and knowledge of the mechanics", but i've been called arrogant, why shouldn't my complaint about this insults be as important as theirs? Reminding you that i didn't say even one insult
And just to be clear: I won't say no to decent criticism, so if you can really tell me what i did wrong, in the limits of logic and rationality ofc i'm always open to backing down, saying i'm sorry and never doing it again, but ofc don't repeat things like "you were being arrogant" without a proper explanation or without a logical one, i never once said something that was meant to offend anyone, i would say that "you don't have any friends" or things like that, which were said to me would be really worse, i'll wait for a response

The big overarching thing is community. We want everyone to feel welcome, and the fact that we’re received a number of complaints about it is justification enough that it’s an issue. Regardless of what’s happening, those complaints are still valid. Half of staff team wanted to ban you and I had to hold them back.

As for actual logic though, in the one example you cited, calling the game easy is an insult to people who thought it was difficult. Even if your intent behind that is to say that people need to understand the mechanics, often the phrasing and delivery can determine how people take that.

Take the context of that scenario into something else. If you take a final, and say to someone that got a D that you could’ve aced it with your eyes closed, that person is bound to feel like shit. Even if your logic is right, it still makes them feel bad, whether you intend to or not. Basically, you’re calling them bad at the course or the game, and even if it’s not direct, it’s still an insult.

What if they are?
The so called achievement is something that me and all of my friends did, so maybe they are bad at the game, if they feel insulted is not my fault
Anyway i understand the reason communitywise, but if you're a reasonable person you'll understand that if everyone hates me bc of prejudice or mass thought i can do nothing about it,more than being polite, which i did
Also i'm not the only one who thinks lytre gets triggeres whenever someone doesn't agree with him, if people see him act that way they will think it's fine and they will complain, if i complained first maybe tge contrary would have happened, but i don't think a race of who complains more is healthy, and i don't think very partial people like lytre should be mods
It's an advice, but take it however you want, it seems a trend that's starting to develop in here anyway :v
(Taking thing however one wants and not objectively)

We have 6 people on staff, and that's because we balance each other out.
If someone seems out of hand, then we can cancel each other out.
However, moderating isn't exactly a pick and choose thing. Often, we take who we get, and we'll do that until there are too many people. It's not a decision we have to make.
The rules are the same as before, if someone thinks you're insinuating arguments, they can ban you for a day. The only thing I can promise you is a review if you think the ban is slanted or unfair.
