Case, maybe some stuff got deleted, but I don't like what appears to be the precedence of freezing threads just because one person doesn't want to talk in them anymore. I didn't see anything hateful, antagonistic or spammy in that first big frozen thread between Lady_Dragoon and an anon -- until LD started calling them an idiot, to get bent and to not talk to her and go away (and then an anon started the "no u"). The rest of that one was civil even though they disagreed.

Being faced with dissenting opinions is what happens when you post in a public forum, and if someone doesn't want to be a part of that the answer should be to stop responding, not to freeze threads just because a poster doesn't like being disagreed with.

Granted, I haven't read the other threads yet, and obviously missed the genesis but I just wanted to put that out there.

[(Anonymous)]

If they didn't want to see any more responses, they could also delete their own comment. You don't need Case to do that.

[(Anonymous)]

I have to agree. If a person wishes to end a discussion, they should just end it. Insisting that someone stop replying to you or engaging with your comments is absurd as well as ineffective. Some of the comments LD requested to be frozen weren't trolling or even uncivil, they were merely disagreeing with her point of view. Requesting that own comment replies are frozen before anyone's even replied is even more entitled, since it basically means LD gets her say, but wants to preemptively block anyone else from having theirs. Dissension is the price one pays for participating in public discussion, and if LD doesn't want that, she can choose not to continue. Instead, she chose to keep engaging her anon commenters/trolls and then blaming them for responding to her!

Case, your policy of freezing comments to cut a troll off at the pass has usually been very judicious, but I think it sets a bad precedence to give one user the power to derail the discussion anytime someone doesn't see things her way.

I get freezing or deleting the go away/no u spam, because that's pure weapons grade brainless shitposting, but freezing an entire multi-person thread so that no one else can engage with anyone involved in it is pretty bad form unless there's harassment or abuse going on, which there doesn't appear to be. It's entirely possible to stop participating in a discussion, delete notifs, and walk away from the thread. The discussion will either go on without the person who bowed out, or peter out on its own.

[case]

If you look at the threads, that's why I didn't freeze them until anon started being like "no u" (and also only the threads where lady_dragoon and the anon were talking got frozen, not the whole thread, unless I made a mistake somewhere). Then the other threads only got frozen when the anon started stalking the rest of them.

If that hadn't happened, I was going to let them stand. (So no, this isn't precedence or excuse to be an ass in a thread then ask for a freeze so no one can reply to you! Don't worry.)

[(Anonymous)]

I still think that is a bad precedent. It is just a way of letting a specific person get the last word in. First person to go running to Case wins, instead of first person to act like an adult and just stop replying. There is an an easy way to end a thread that has devolved to that level and that is to stop posting in it. Getting Case to shut it down is a powerplay, not a conversation ender.

[(Anonymous)]

Which is why you're stamping your feet and whining like a snot-nosed toddler now?

[(Anonymous)]

Dude. Mod has spoken. It's your turn to be the adult and shut up now.

[(Anonymous)]

Let it fucking go. You're making me side with LD just out of spite, here.

[(Anonymous)]

Doesn't work, tho. I remeber a couple of days (Weeks maybe?) ago, LD tried to end the thread by saying "Last word" and some beautiful anon bastard came back with "Nope" just before the thread was frozen, Beautiful timing.

[(Anonymous)]

Which makes the "oh noes, asking Case to shut it down is unfaaaaaaaaaaaaair" argument even dumber.

[(Anonymous)]

Nah. True, it might start to suck if you're anon, because if a named user says something, you disagree, they can start wanking to get the thread frozen (Seriously, LD /started/ the wank then went and reported the thread? I'd be impressed with her balls if I wasn't so irritated)

BUT

really there are only like three named users who love the last word that much and are petty enough to do it, and anons always have the option to nut up and get an account. They're free!

[(Anonymous)]

Or, yanno, anons might have to start acting like the fucking adults they claim to be and not drag the wank to a user's every other thread once the mod freezes the first one. Just sayin'.

Funny that everyone claims LD wants the last word when the anons are the ones who wouldn't drop it when asked.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh, yeah, the anon wanted the last word too, no argument there, but only one of them went running to the mod to get it.

And yeah, anons aught to be grown up, not arguing that point either, the point I'm arguing is the "I don't want people disagreeing with me so when I call them an idiot shut it down so they can't come back" tactic. Which is a dick move, but one only a few named users would pull.

[(Anonymous)]

And Case apparently thought it was warranted, or he wouldn't have done it. He only froze the threads after the anons started the mindless shitposting. So, yanno, don't mindlessly shitpost and threads won't get frozen even if a named user does request it.

[(Anonymous)]

Let it go already, you guys are all equally annoying.

[(Anonymous)]

Nobody's right. Everyone's a loser. I'm only siding with LD because she had the sense to shut up after all (so much for wanting the last word).

?

[(Anonymous)]

Anons had started spreading the wank to other unrelated threads she was in:

http://fandomsecrets.dreamwidth.org/1418866.html?thread=911014002#cmt911014002

So Case decided to just freeze all of them upon request. Not a bad move IMO.

[(Anonymous)]

"How dare the mod not agree with me!"

You sound exactly like LD right now. Can it.

[(Anonymous)]

Lady Dragoon loves to have the last word, so when she "Commands" (her words) the anon to not reply to her anymore, and they don't obey, what option does she have?
