Idc if like half of my tweets are just remarking on the chill nature here, it's such a missed thing in my life lol

i love this website so much lol

The other day one of the site's founders I follow made a post about some non-cohost community drama I'm completely ignorant of, but he made a point about communities in general that tied to some stuff I've been thinking about for a while now. I left a reply that was basically "this a a tangent, but you got me thinking about such-and-such, blah dee blah" and someone shoved in to extrapolate basically the worst-take read of what I said. Basically just assuming I was posting a reaction to the specifics of this drama that I went out of my way to not reference at all. Long sorry short I left a couple responses, one pretty calm-headed and one that was basically "fuck out of here with that shit" and when I went back later in the day to read some other replies to the post the guy who was being a prick had straight up gotten his account deleted.

I know being a dick in the comments if one of the site's mods probably made him a higher priority target than any given shitty rando, but honest-to-god I don't think I've seen someone running a website take an active interest in pruning that kind of bad behavior since my forum days. I can acknowledge the fact that that kind of moderation could lead to some unearned-power dick-swinging (see also: my old forum days) but it just feels really nice to see someone who runs a community look at someone being just generally shitty, go "I don't want shittiness on my website" and then take action to improve the room.
