You don't need to apologize. I do genuinely appreciate your post and comments.
I do acknowledge that my decision to take a stand against this abusive individual is the catalyst, or at least the fuel for the latest blowup. I am so sorry that he has then gone on to abuse you after you tried to help him.
I guess my question is more for the broader SGS community. Is tolerating abuse what SGS is about? Because if it is then I won't be staying on in this role much longer.
Not at all. Abuse has consequences. Especially personal abuse should not be tolerated at all.
Agreed! But unfortunately we have bled ACTIVE users mostly due to actions of our so called leaders. these things tend to have a limited time frame. The work is still appreciated! I have criticism for Bugged but he had done a great amount of work and differences aside I give him much appreciation for it! But the way some were treated for having slightly different political opinions last November was way more impactful than some dork responding with a bad word. Eh is what it is, life’s too short to give much thought. Cheers to better days for SSG and to all those who stopped being involved because of being told they had opinions that weren’t tolerated like not voting Harris 😂 How a Metals community leader can trash libertarians for not voting for lesser evil nonsense still makes no sense 2 me 🤷🏼♂️ but as I said is stat it is. They voted by leaving or just not being active. I respect the choice seeing where things are now. But we do have some great individuals still around for sure! It’s just a bummer many openly say in DM’s they feel disrespected by people who run things. Just too bad they feel disrespected. Such is life.
