It was locked temporarily to move contents to the "poll" thread, where WE ASKED to keep the discussion so it won't spread throughout the forum. Now the thread was removed.

I don't get it. Wylie just confirmed what I told you. That I told him that I am not interested in his answers in that thread. He even suggested that you cut off his replies. So why do you now delete my stackOVERFLOW thread all in all??

You also lied here because the thread was active here for 10 hours before you locked it. You decided just now you can't take a perfectly acceptable post just because your ego can't take it.

I don't get it either. I didn't confirm anything, and you don't seem to be interested in anybody's answers in any thread. You appear to just be whacking the hornets nest to see if you can stir up some hornets. Why not just take a deep breath and relax, and forget about it?

Well is it not true that I specifically told you to not post in that thread?

And that I will remove my post in 2 minutes which I did?

How the hell should I know? I don't remember reading any such thing. Are you seriously asking me to confirm that you posted something and deleted it 2 minutes later? If you wanted people to know you had said it, why did you delete it?

Your style of conversing with others is very confusing.

I may stop responding to your posts, since the conversation is not making any sense to me.

I am so confused. This forum has gone completely crazy. I saw Daniel's stackOVERFLOW thread and it was both useful and informative. From my angle the moderation team is just proving that they can bully him and is deleting the evidence so as to make it look like Daniel is to blame.

Well I DID right after you posted answers I didn't ask for. I told you to delete your replies and post it in another thread where I asked you the questions. I said I will remove my post in 2 minutes after notifying you, because as far as I know you will not be able to delete your thread if my post is below it.

That's weird.. to me it looks like Daniel is taunting the moderators, not the other way around. He was repeatedly creating the same thread after they had deleted it and asked him to stop. I saw at least 3 times that he had created it. Its some kind of weird temper tantrum, but what does he possibly think it will accomplish to be disruptive like that?

The forum has some rules of conduct and the moderators are tasked with enforcing those rules so that the place doesn't turn into a cesspool of personal attacks like the old forum before CCC did. The rules are a bit subjective, the moderators have to use their best judgement and the rest of us just have to accept that, otherwise lots of pointless bickering will happen after every moderation action. All of this is explained in the charter.

Daniel is trying to portray himself as a victim of the moderators, but why? He wants to be a martyr, but for what grand cause? I asked him what his goal was, but he didn't answer.

Maybe he is reposting the thread because there is nothing wrong with the content? Maybe he is mad about getting bullied, I don't know. I would at least be very confused about the moderators decisions.

Here is what happened. I posted stackOVERFLOW thread. Everyhting went well for 10 hours, me participating in other threads.

Then Wylie came in running with his questions. I told him I don't want to discuss your 'notes to programers' issues here in the stackOVERfLOW thread.

He invented a question that I didn't ask for in that thread and polluted it. Then I replied to him, I don't want to cause trouble, post your replies in another thread. After notifying him that I will delete it in 2 minutes, which I did otherwise he won't be able to delete his.

Here Wylie is DENYING that he hasn't seen the post. Then he goes on to his STRCPY thread and refers content from stackOVERFLOW. Such a hypocrite.

Even if he denies it, he is the one who infested my stackOVERFLOW thread with his first reply.

Where are you? Playing hide and seek until I post stackOVERFLOW thread ? Trust me I will eventually, but you should have the decency to let me know of your change of decision after 10 hours just because some crazy guy comes in and pollutes a perfectly fine thread.
