Here’s your original request:

viewtopic.php?p=2907850#p2907850

Shades has a copy of the PMs. There have been no ‘edits’. I have some talents but reversing time isn’t one of them. : D
Regarding the posting of our PMs, xxxk you! You had your opportunity when I inquired three times about a month ago, and now you wish to release them when I don't possess a copy!

Indeed, I won't be deceived by your schemes! However, I will share what I recall. I recall what you mentioned regarding my use of a PM to reach out to you. Initially, your reply came across as quite condescending, and it felt as though you did not regard me as an equal. It seemed you were addressing me in a manner more suited to a child, implying that I would only receive a serious response if I crafted a question that met your standards in tone, substance, and overall meaning. Meaning, you're a narcissist!! Otherwise, it appeared that a serious reply would be withheld.

Your attempt was to establish a parent-child dynamic, positioning yourself as the parent and me as the child. It's a classic display of power rooted in conditional respect! Your tone came across as patronizing and domineering, and it seems you are trying to establish your role as a moderator by evaluating my value before deciding to engage. Your behavior and statements on this board, particularly in your role as moderator, seem self-centered, as you consistently create situations that allow you to shift blame if things go wrong.

It's perpetually the responsibility of others, never your own. Classic narcissism!

Did you not say something close to this, "that your response back to me will be given at the level of seriousness that my PMs are written" Or something to that affect? Meaning, what you're trying to convey is that you'll treat my PMs seriously if I earn it! Do you understand how narcissistic that type of thinking is?
Hound, your story makes no sense. Why would you delete such a prize, if it were as you described? And how would I have known that you deleted it?

As it is, your ‘recall’ of the content is fantasy. Check in with Shades and ask his opinion. Or just post the PM. You haven’t deleted anything, so if you post it, you can expose the horrifying deception that you pretend I’m engaged in, right?

Anyhow, I’ll go grab a coffee while you try to figure out what to say next. Your bizarre campaign here is getting interesting.

You didn't answer the question! Did you say something to the affect of, " that you're response back to me , will be given at the level of serious that my PMs are written?" Meaning, I need to very careful with how I word my questions or I won't receive a serious response if you become upset or feel disrespected with how I decided to ask you a question. Do you understand that if you feel that way, you're a narcissist! you're implying that my actions determine your actions. You're shifting the blame on me if I don't agree with your response!

Oh, good! You have suddenly found your ‘deleted’ PM. I’ll take your sudden willingness to discuss the content as your consent to discuss the content.

You’re referring to your statement: “I requested a single thread where board members could pose questions and anticipate receiving a thoughtful response from a moderator.”

My reply:

“Regarding a rules thread request: We have this in the Spirit Paradise forum, with its split (for the inevitable posts that require it) in Spirit Prison; given your participation within it I’m not sure if you’re requesting a new version, or expressing a thought regarding the present setup. Regardless, my own responses to your questions - if you are seeking them - will be given with the same level of seriousness that your inquiries, their content and your resulting actions demonstrate. That seems like a fair approach, and gives you great control over the path of the conversation.”

I stand by that reply.

Now, put that PM in a safe place, this time. : )

In other words, “if I am a bitch or a dick, it is not my fault. Rather, it is your fault.”

I am starting to think Shades should not have conceded to violate one of his own rules, he should have just wiped out all the rules instead. Would have been way more interesting.

If someone chooses to be “a bitch or a dick”, then that will be their fault. That’s how it has always been and that has seemingly driven you and the Mike clones crazy, given how often you’ve blamed your outbursts and tantrums on ‘they made me do it’.

If someone is not serious about a conversation, then I may not be serious in my replies.

Can you explain what is incomprehensible to you about that?

Right. And you said your behavior depends on Hound’s behavior. And then you said it again.

Yes. Actions get reactions. And you are clear that you are reactionary, and it is not your fault.


ETA: its also my fault that you lied about what I said. We get it.

What I said is that my responses to Hound will match the seriousness of his questions. Your reimagination of what I said is your own. But I doubt that you can find fault with my actual statement.

I am clear that people are responsible for their own reactions. Your reimagination of what I said is your own. But I doubt that you can find fault with my actual statement.

Says the fellow who has to keep re-writing what others say to create so many ‘straw men’. That’s some serious projection. : )

So, if you consider Hound to be unserious, then your behavior, exhibited as an action, will not be serious. Hound therefore dictates your behavior. That is Power!

And when you lie again, about what I said, either by paraphrase or misquote, it is not your fault it is mine. I caused you to choose to lie, which is a behavior and an act. Power!

Lol, English seems to be a very difficult language for you. : D

If Hound - or anyone - asks an unserious question, then my response may be just as unserious. Response isn’t synonymous with behavior, though. I could, in fact, quite seriously deliver an unserious response.

This is basic stuff, Binger. But, I know that you know this and that you’re just being overly performative. ; )

And when you lie again, about what I said, either by paraphrase or misquote, it is not your fault it is mine. I caused you to choose to lie, which is a behavior and an act. Power!
And here you just make stuff up. This is all so predictable. I’m sure that next you’ll just keep repeating the made-up stuff. Go for it. It’ll still be made up.

I just hope that y’all are being as unserious as you come across, because if not, then you’re trying a bit too hard in auditioning for the top Karen spot. Hound is going to be jealous if you win.

If you consider Hound’s posts unserious, you will not be serious or respond seriously. I believe that. Hound dictates your reaction. This is what you have repeated.
