    Um...is this importing drama? It looks an awful lot like importing drama.

    Eh, I don't really see anyone getting their undies in a bunch. It seems fine.

    Whoever operates the Hitler sockpuppet, this would be an appropriate time to bring him out.

    Hi there.

    Chagen, let me just say that comparing me to Fast Eddie is a bad idea. We're not on good terms.

    GLORIOUS Leader, you get a penalty card.

    Yes, it does.  I'm trying to decide whether it's crossed the line.  (Yesterday I silently locked another drama-importing thread, actually.)

    Just out of curiosity, is any thread in which complaints are made about TVTropes/TVT moderation counted as importing drama? If not, what are the criteria?

    I ask because this didn't seem very drama-importy to me.

    The way I define it, importing drama is complaining about an issue you have with a user on another site instead of just taking it up with the other site.
  • ElbeemElbeem
    Ok, fair enough then.

    Anyway, still not decided about closing it or not. I'm just going to watch for a bit.

    Well, I feel like allowing this discussion as long as it's about hollers, in part since I doubt this discussion would be taken well over there.

    That said, if this becomes an argument about Myrmidon and Acridity, it's getting a lock.  And then the hollers-being-shut-down issue is kinda specific to Myrmidon anyway...

    FWIW, I already talked over my holler-related concerns with Bobby/Khwarizmi...

    We're allowed to holler over being offended and feeling like we're being condescended to! People do it to Rottweiler all the time!

    How do the mods react to that? Do people holler his posts 10 times or just once?
  • MillerCrossMillerCross
    You can change. You can.

    People do it to Rotty because he derails threads most of the time. Mind you, I personally don't give a crap about what goes on the hell that is OTC nor about Tongpu, Rottweiler or Acridity and I'm just basing myself on what I hear...so bleh.
