You are right srs is cancer, and maybe beetle is part of that but it doesn’t change the fact that we do in fact have a history, I wish you wouldn’t have deleted. Just because I know someone doesn’t mean I agree with them and I honestly think it’s shitty as hell that you have been attacked with that stuff. If you are lurking hopefully you see this. I saw what was going on I spent a good 3 hours going through your and Gabaras post histories looking for evidence of alts or vote manipulation anything I could use to come up with something to work the situation out, all I found was you two downvoteing each other, gabara even agreed to stop. So I’m sorry you had a bad experience here I would have fixed it if I could have I genuinely care about what goes on here and if I can help a user out I will. In this case there wasn’t anything I could do. Neither of you broke any rules. I can’t ban sbbh I can’t stop anyone from saying what they want to say here. As long as they keep it in their sub it’s allowed. Honestly I’m sorry to see you go. I don’t like the fact that I lost a user. It means I have failed in some way. So best I can do is try harder next time.
I'm used to dealing with them alone without admin support and it spooked me when you seemed on a first name basis with beatlejuice. I like poal but I'm burnt out on dealing with them. You seem Ernest about your intentions but it's easy to deceive online. I might of jumped the gun but I'm banking on this place being flooded soon. I only down voted gabara in retaliation, I respect your desire for discussion but I legitimately hate them
Well I hope you come back someday. I get why you would hate them. Beetle and myself well we had a mutual friend lets say thats why he knows my first name. He knew someone I actually spoke on the phone with they shared my name with him so its become a running thing to verify who we are. I don't agree with everything he says or does and my guess is the feeling is mutual.
I know there is no way to prove it but I am genuine. I am as much as I can be the Admin voat needed. I spent hours of my fathers day with poal instead of my kids. Trying to make it a good place for everyone. I know going into this I won't win every battle and I won't make everyone happy. I just can't I went into this project knowing eventually I would lose. People would be un happy and they will leave and everytime its 1 more person that might no longer believe in free speech poal will remain as long as I can keep it online. But every person that leaves believes in free speech and leaves I will take as a person failure. I'm not trying to guilt trip you. I'm just trying to let you know how important all this is too me.
So goodbye for now and I hope to see you around some day.
