Deleting responses on a place that should open to free speech for all car enthusiasts? Not cool

That's what i think, but he thinks he's just being considerate.

It is an inherent part of Kinja.
Use it, don't use it.
Yes, it skews conversations to one way as opposed to another, it also clears out things you flat out don't like. That also is allowed.
Have a problem? Take it up with Gawker IT.

No, you're the one doing this. Don't put the blame on the system.

Did I blame the system? I just said it allowed me to dismiss comments I don't like.
I didn't say anything wrong nor did I shift blame, learn how to read.
I don't like your comments, so stop replying to me. Or I'll just keep dismissing them. See how that works? Perfect system to avoid annoying people like you!

Keep trying to dodge it. Fact is someone else called you out on your bullshit. Deal with it.

Sorry I can't hear you over the sound of my dismissing.
You seem far more upset about this than I do, since you keep bringing it up. You clearly must be new here.

Eh, I can see why mine got deleted as it somehow floated up to the top of the article. I accept that. I don't make any apologies for it. It'd be different if they started deleting comments in individual Oppo articles but on the FP articles I can understand them doing that.

You went apeshit over one little thing i said. That's what brought us here. You then proceeded to delete the things you didn't like.
Am i being childish? Sure. Do i care more about looking like child than i care about you being called out on your BS? No.

I don't have a problem with you dismissing rude or rowdy comments, that's fine. But dismissing genuinely acceptable comments just seems weird..

Alright, break it up you two. This needs to go no further.
You don't like eachother, fine - don't interact with eachother.

Are you purposely starting shit then?

1) Don't get so worked up about it. Who really cares what happens on the internet, anyway?
2) Free speech doesn't apply: it's a case of 'my house, my rules'.
3) See 1.

This isn't about us not liking each other. This is about him deleting shit that he doesn't like. It's cowardly and unbecoming. It's the fact that he's trying to call me out for being tactless for saying something bad about a goddamn movie, all while doing much worse for himself.
That's all there is to it.

Read up, and find out.
I'm not purposefully trying to start anything, but i'm not willing to put up with this either.

And again, post dismissed.
You know victorious. As i see it, it's quite simple. You can't fight an honest fight. You certainly can't finish what you started. You called me out, you got me.
———
Original post (sort of):
Whatever turns you on?
I didn't set out to call you out on anything, all i'm doing is showing the world what double standards you maintain. I say something bad about the F&F movies, you go apeshit. You see a post making a joke DIRECTLY on Paul's death and you lol'd.
What the fuck? You don't like me, that's fine. But threatening to get me banned, etc just because you can't live with my opinion? Then deleting the shit i respond to you? Then going on and laughing at something much worse?
Come on ... even you must know this isn't okay.

From the looks of things, that is something you should email jalopnik about if you have an issue with it. Starting bitch threads in Oppo doesn't solve the problem and just makes you look like you deserve it. You can report Victorious to the staff and they might take away his admin rights if they agree. If they don't agree, then that's going to be the end of it.
![]() 12/01/2013 at 17:56 |

After that first exchange he doesn't like you, that's his opinion, that's fine. Perhaps a bit silly but if he doesn't like you/your comments, he can dismiss whatever he likes.
That's all I'm getting at. You guys don't get along, don't be upset by the consequences.
![]() 12/01/2013 at 17:58 |

Fair enough. I figure if he has the right to start a tirade on me, then i should feel entitled to the same.
![]() 12/01/2013 at 18:00 |
|
Well, he shouldn't be surprised by what he got. If i suddenly say something about you and take away the means to defend/argument your case, and thus making you look like a fool, then i would think that it would prompt the same kind of reaction.

What article was it, and what did you say?
![]() 12/01/2013 at 18:00 |

The thing is, I have no admin rights.
I'm not even special!
Though I do tell myself that to make the long days in the office go by faster.

Also, I've never unintentionally trolled someone so bad that this has happened. Makes me wonder what kind of evil I could cause if I actually tried...

I get it. It may be a immature way to handle conversations but that's the way the system is. If I were you, I'd dismiss his comment on that thread and be done with it. Some discussions aren't even worth having.

this "article" - http://oppositelock.jalopnik.com/fast-and-furio…
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
I explained to lepie that FF appeals to North American car enthusiasts and not so much other places because it's a movie about american car culture, and might be difficult to understand the appeal elsewhere.

I'm not the kind of person to dismiss what others have to say, no matter how much i might dislike it.
If i did the same to anyone, then i would expect a reaction. Since this forum has no ways of communicating privately (that i know of), this was the only way. Foolish or not, i don't let people run over me like that.

Rules 1 and 2 went out the window before the 2nd post. Hence Das's intervention.

Your argument is inherently disadvantaged because the dismiss button exists, and we are free to use it as pleased.
Knowing VS, he probably is being a bit over-the-top. Also knowing VS, he probably had good reasons for doing this.
However, one fact remains: he's dropped the argument. I suggest you do the same.

I have. Starting shit and then dismissing the replies is quite childish, however.

Then how in the hell are you responsible for deleting comments and whatnot? I mean, I admit I hit my head today when I was working on my car but damn, this shit isn't making sense right now....
![]() 12/01/2013 at 18:19 |

It would be response in kind, not just dismissing a comment you don't like at will. I would have no qualms about removing it.
![]() 12/01/2013 at 18:20 |

Yup, that'll just about do it.

In retrospect, maybe i could've deleted his. I just don't do this kind of thing, that's all. I think it's cowardly.

It might seem that way but like I said, some conversations are not worth having or trying to have.
