Remove the points you gave me, as it was not spamming as I only posted once in the sdd forum, it was relevant to the sdd forum as we sdd students have a major work coming soon. Offended mod
Yeah I said it will suck as my sdd teacher have not taught us programming skills much in year 12, now we have to fucking teach ourself at home just to get a good mark for the project
I actually agree with you for once.
Now remove the warnings.
So no offence or distaste to SylviaB's repugnant comments, but a critique of this?
listen opinions are allowed as long as it doesn't offend us(mods).
That explains how SylviaB is still on this site.Maybe Trebla is secretly SylviaB
Agree, but there is a small tolerance of this in Non-School (less so in School forums) and it’s more of a “watch and see” approach. Also, personal insults sometimes happen on both sides of the argument as well. I am not going to ban every instance someone says “idiot” or “dickhead” otherwise I would also be banning some of you guys who also throw unnecessary insults when you argue back. Context needs to be considered as well.
SylviaB been trolling here for years, actually feel sad for him.
I understand the tolerance levels maybe be different, particularly in non-school forums. But would it really still be a valid debate/argument when insults are being thrown back and forth? I feel like it automatically loses it's authenticity and purpose.
can agree with this, as I see sylvia b is the most hated person on this site and has been for years, but I do think freedom of speech should be allowed,I understand the tolerance levels maybe be different, particularly in non-school forums. But would it really still be a valid debate/argument when insults are being thrown back and forth? I feel like it automatically loses it's authenticity and purpose.
If people on both sides of the argument start insulting each other, that only shows their inability to enter into a civil discussion. SylviaB's actions are causing reactions from other BoS members (that of course doesn't justify the reactions, they are still wrong), but perhaps the initiation of such calls/insults is what causes chaos within those threads in the first place. It is also worth saying that SylviaB is the only user I've seen who actually starts insulting. Everyone else makes genuine contributions to the conversation until the first insult.
Also, I know you're probably not referring to me, but I just wanted to say that I've never actually insulted/disrespected anyone on this website, quite the opposite.
Of course freedom of speech should be allowed. It's just that there are some instances where it is no longer viewed as such.
What usually happens is that it is a brief off the cuff insult followed by actual debate content. If there are still valid points and people are seeing the argument behind the noise of insults to debate back then that’s fine. It’s not always a case of people trading only insults at each other.I understand the tolerance levels maybe be different, particularly in non-school forums.

The start of this thread is of course unacceptable. You're an administrator doing your job and you shouldn't be addressed in such a way. But its occurrence is extremely rare compared to SylviaB's (now seemingly normalised) insults. A number of users are complaining about this, not just myself.
Main insults in the Chess thread that I spotted were posts #24, #39 and #40, the first one being by SylviaB, the second one by nilatar and the third one being a response to nilatar from SylviaB. All 3 are unnecessary and could've been avoided.
The BoS mod team is quite small when compared to other study forums, but that's a different topic. And yes, I have no unrealistic expecations such as these. I'm merely sharing my opinion and suggestions for a study forum that I highly appreciate.
and I didn't even quote queenroot real name in the message, it was sylviab but I got the warning are you kidding me
See post #13 which starts the personal attack in a somewhat “soft” way - but was followed by a subsequent post I had to delete from that user because that was more direct and no longer about the subject matter.The start of this thread is of course unacceptable.

If there's an insult that came before those, please indicate it to me, although I don't think I missed any.

Ok it was directx not sylviab, I got it confused, but why was I warned for quoting directxmessage? so if someone insults you or expose your name, I quote It are you going to ban me, not them?
