Chopping off their own feet....
-
not sure, i received a pm from a sw employee saying that if the user tries to contact me again to let them know. At this point I don't care and it's not worth my time to continue that, it was just annoying to have to deal with. One would think you could hope for some sort of professionalism out of users, but i guess not.

i hate trolls, I was trolled by someone who created separate accounts just to troll me on a single thread in sw. I reported that user, then he calls me a snitch. These types of forums aren't Reddit, and it irritates me to no end why people go out of their way to troll others. Either be useful or leave, pretty straight forward to me.
Wow. I've never seen that happen over there. That's crazy.
oh yeah what made it even better is the user PM'd me and admitted to doing that, saying it was fun because i seemed mad. I could tell he was a younger user since they were slinging around phrases such as yolo and crap like that.
Hell I've been called a troll, and been told I was mean because I called a troll a troll. I like to feed them, because it flushes them out for what they really are.

Did they get those extra accounts deleted?
I had tried to troll using another account, got banhammered in about 2 hours. It was called Slade02, and was going to be the anti-slade alter ego
-
@Bill-Kindle i can say for 100% certainty that i did not report that account
-
We should make "Slade Day" and have dozens of people all make Slade accounts all at once.
-
@scottalanmiller I was really put off by a post he had put up that was allowed to stand for a good amount of time that was related to him trying to hack facebook accounts, I made some very snarky remarks in many of his posts after that. The app was called "Facecrack.exe" and after he loaded it on his Windows 8.1 PC (gasp!) he started getting all sorts of weird DLL errors.

My alt account isn't for trolling I promise
I'm just angry with spiceworks, and people know me as RAM so started using my alt account so I can stay somewhat hidden. -

Why did these changes happen? Did they grow too fast?

They are on their way to IPO. They have new corporate task masters. A lot of things aren't so much changes as greater exposure.
-
As they prepare for IPO they need to be positioned for Wall St. That doesn't always mean making customers happy.

I've been out of the SP for a long time. What am I missing?
-
What you're missing is IRJ bitching about mods with no justification,
A post got deleted, IRJ called the mods about it, even though he admitted that the OP had deleted the post themselves, but apparently that's all the mods fault.
As a current mod I don't like getting called on rumour, hearsay and personal viewpoints.
-
So a whole thread for deleted by the OP?
-
Yes , a whole thread of bitching about mods because a poster deleted his own post.
-
Mangolassi and Spiceworks are two separate things, but going to the one to bitch about the other doesn't sit well with me.
The only reason I've posted here is for clarification, otherwise it's a "oh, those nasty people at Spiceworks" comment.
-
@Huw3481 that links from ML to SW are allowed but not in the reverse doesn't sit well with me either. You are allowed to link answers and references from anywhere except here.
-
@scottalanmiller There has been no directive to mods to delete ML posts. That's a ridiculous state if it's a helpful post. You might as well delete posts that reference Technet, Petri or Experts Exchange.
Got any examples?
