@ponderable saidAll the gang of alerts have been removed. Clearly your overweening partisan concern was not met with a sympathetic perspective by the moderation team or Russ himself, whom I expect is seeing the humour in this completely harmless rib-poke at Suzianne.
Before any suspicion arises I alerted the thread and gave a reasoning.
Dive it is not to be discussed in the open Forum, you did that (raising this specific accustaion) a lot now, why do you think it will alter anything?
Please send feedback in private and if Suzianne is banned then it be so. But this kind of threads only serves to make the already quite toxic atmospehre even more toxic.
@divegeester saidSo you alerted a post, yet copy and pasted it so all can see? Am I the only one who sees hypocrisy in this?
@Suzianne has accused Russ of accepting bribes to ban certain posters: Thread 189850 page one, 4th post.
Post is alerted so I’ll quote it here:

You should be so proud, pr ...[text shortened]... ve to be to accommodate the cognitive dissonance generated by trying to believe something like this?
Just a few years ago I considered you a friend, now I'm not sure what has happened to you, but I pity you.
Good day

Someone makes a post and certain people must thumbs down.
Then such people complain about how unfair things are...pathetic.
Great thread, got a good laugh out of it.
@eladar saidMost of the posters who get regularly thumbed down on here view it with wry amusement.

If you can't stand the heat get out of the furnace.
@the-gravedigger saidIt just adds to the toxicity. As long as it is what you are going for, that is fine.

Ponderable seemed to want to get rid of it, so I responded to that sentiment.
@eladar saidI was wondering when this would be next, but first the alert system had to be neutered.

All dissent must be squashed.
Vive la résistance!
