@s

@StevenJeuris hey you deleted my question in a caustic manner on meta

i fixed this question

or at least the answer is a little better explaining

could you remove your flag from below it please

@caseyr547 Once I noticed you read my comment I deleted it, .. since it is here you should be either way.

Meta is not a place to post requests like that.

What do you even want me to do with it?

just remove the whole you didnt explain yourseslf well thing

So that's not 'flagged'. A notice has been added underneath.

If you want to notify moderators, use flags for that.

Meta if you want to discuss it.

i dont have any more flags

i used them on the voting irrgularities

haha

Time to take a break then?

are you saying you will not do anything untill you get a flag?

i mean i guess thats your perogative

also are votes to delete private?

No .. I'm looking at it.

Josh added the notice.

Just don't expect me to spend 100% of my time, jumping on every request you make.

thank you i understand

@caseyr547 Hmm .. I actually don't know.

I would guess they are.

Hi @jonsca!

Hi @StevenJeuris

How has your weekend been? :)

Not bad, how has yours been so far?

Been postponing a paper all weekend.

It's a paper I don't fully believe in and got coauthor on due to ... bureaucratic reasons you could say.

Yuck, I hate those situations

Feel free to insert words like "chrysanthemum" randomly throughout

@jonsca :)

I might be able to sneak that in.

It's an ethnographic study ... :/

I'm sure I saw some chrysanthemum's while I was there ...

Heck .. if not, something must have reminded me of them.

:)

In other news .. I also did my first paper review recently, and suggested rejection. :)

Does that make you e-viil?

why did my shift key and punctuation keys stop working

lol

@shog9 so how are you doing today? i want to thank you for not perma banning me and for letting me play on the other parts of the network during my ban

@StevenJeuris i think its called a conflict of interest if you declare it you'll have to give delineation of the differences

@caseyr547 What?

It's a paper I don't fully believe in and got coauthor on due to ... bureaucratic reasons you could say.

that statement has ethical problems lol

Exactly, which is why I'm no longer a coauthor.

Just took my name off of it earlier today.

And as you might have noticed, the academic world isn't all rosy and flowery unfortunately.

at least the academic world acknowledges research ethics... here its sorda anything goes

@caseyr547 If you feel like you are being bullied. Go to meta, create a post, and pinpoint where you feel you were wronged. Unfortunately, although you get a lot of down votes, I see no immediate direct evidence.

I suspect people simply stopped leaving comments to explain why your answers are incorrect, since those comments didn't lead to any improvement previously.

if i posted in meta it would only cause an anarchy

they would start saying they were going to quit if i wasnt banned again

and stuff

Well meta is anarchy, but please don't pollute comments on questions and answers with this stuff, ... I just have to go through it and delete it all either way.

That's their problem, not yours.

actually it becomes my problem when their campaigning leads to my ban

i mean your going to kick me out later because my posts are going to accure all the downvotes and flaggs

so its really only a matter of time

@caseyr547 It wasn't their campaigning that lead to your ban, you got specific reasons why you were banned by email, and those did not involve other members threatening to leave.

they are the ones who introduced shog9 to the discussion

you know i'm pretty dense

and i really didnt understand that what i had done was wrong

even after talking to him

i mean sure i wont do that but i'm going to keep getting down votes untill one of them becomes a mod and abuses their power against me

because i mean your only protem

and when the time comes i will have accured alot of down votes

if this pace continues

josh will call a vote before then maybe even

i mean i went through all this before in christianity with caleb

Huh?

lol that made absolutely no sense whatsoever

A moderator election is run when a site graduates

well moderators can vote people off jonsca

protemp moderators hold an election to ban people for various reasons

A pro tem moderator can suspend a user, yes

then if i manage to last till the graduation

one of the people who hate me will be a moderator

as they are very popular

and then they will call a vote themselves

There's one key thing you can do to change all of this, Casey. You can write careful, well thought-out answers, and you can stop provoking people, and there will be absolutely no problem with you participating on the site

no jonsca

my answers today were awesome

They were utter garbage

I'm awesome.

absolutely beautiful

well backed by literature

I don't care who wrote them. It could have been Joel and I would still say they were garbage.

jonsca thats what they are going to say

however my quality hasnt changed

neither are the facts i present wrong

Yes, it's been consistently poor

see haha

i've been consitent

and only now its a problem

@caseyr547 I hope my lastest answer addresses your three other posts concisely. You pretty much managed to get all the possible reasons for post deletion except spam with those 3 posts.

No, it's been snowballing since day 1

no jonsca

i've never lost 60 points on one day

they are picking on me now

what about that question is percriptive

@StevenJeuris

i will fix whatever you think is perscriptive

and i fixed the offensive question as well

but it hasnt been evaluated

and fine you know you didnt like learning about eye conditions caused by the inablity to close your eyes thats fine but its not really a big deal

It did not answer the question

@caseyr547 You already did that earlier, and it's no longer deleted ...

jonsca the idea that things snowball with sudden 60 points agianst someone is out ragious

i mean absolutly crazy

oh ok thanks @StevenJeuris

now what about that question is perscriptive

Oops, ... nope, that was the offensive one. That one got undeleted.

That's what snowballing means. Read for comprehension, please.

no jonsca

snow balling as a term means when you start with a small ball of snow and you roll it down a hill

gradually the ball becomes bigger

today it was a blizzard

Yes, your answers started out mediocre and now they are abominable

no small ball nothing

What does that have to do with anything?

Please don't get personal.

your not in a postiion to judge the quality of my assertions

your a chemist

I moderate a chemistry site, but I am not a chemist.

moreover today i was award 75 points through an upvote and a bounty and an accept

then i had several other upvotes to counter the negative ones

@caseyr547 What are you trying to achieve by having this discussion?

@StevenJeuris i'm trying to get jonsca off my back...and i'm trying to get you to explain what you want me to change about the answer that has been deemed perscriptive

Do you feel you can get people off your back by making assertions about them?

sometimes yes...bullies generally have to be confronted

bullies with power are difficult to deal with

What makes you think he is a bully?

jonsca? i mean he deicded to start blasting all my answers as being terrible when i have a great general understanding of psychology as is reflected in the bounties i've recieved and the general answers i've given...while my understanding of conciousness is limited i did a pretty good job on that answer...something i'm proud of ....moreover my answer about dp/dr is something i'm extreamly proud of...even when my answers were singled out in the site evalutation they faired ok...

@caseyr547 "What you want are a class of stimulants and called [...]"

@caseyr547 Is he not allowed to express his opinion about your answers being incorrect, or not an answer to the posed questions?

What you want to compare TMS to are a class

is that better?

yes but his generalizations are incorrect and abusive

@caseyr547 I suggest you write up a new answer and post that, and let the community decide whether the new one is better. I'm not going to read into it now, I'm already spending too much time helping you out as is. Have other stuff to do.

yes i understand thanks for pointing that out i wouldnt have been able to find it

@caseyr547 His generalizations are most likely a consequence of prior experiences where he did point out precisely what was wrong with the answer.

Unfortunately it's hard to convince people to keep giving constructive feedback if it's not taken into account in subsequent posts.

But ... it's not bullying. He is simply stating the answers are wrong, and that is his right.

Better would be pointing out why they are wrong of course, but that's not mandatory.

We've all tried... very hard

he is saying so without evidence

he hasnt even proven he has read them

or if he read them that he is qualified to understand the implications

@caseyr547 Perhaps you are generalizing now?

no i mean 0 absolutly none points against me

have been concreate

its all truth statments rather than facts

your answer was garbage a truth statment

artem started this stuff and he keeps purpatrating the same lie

I can't follow what you are getting at there.

ok the first principles of science

is differentiating between truth and facts

But either way playing the victim won't be conducive to you getting concrete answers to what is wrong with your posts.

a fact is something which can be confirmed by evidence

truth statments are something which may or may not have evidence to back it up but is realting something other than the fact

like Jesus is God is a truth statment

@StevenJeuris i'm not playing the victim

2 people asked why my posts have irrational downvotes

and i explained

i asked the moderators to check for voting irregularites

@caseyr547 <-

but the people who are doing it are hacking the system

@caseyr547 <-

@caseyr547 <-

yes ?

That is what I call playing the victim.

Is that sufficient evidence to make that a fact?

what would you rather i say those votes are rational? when they obviously are not

"when they obviously are not" Is that a truth statement?

no its proveable

So ... start a meta post, and make your case.

sure ok since you want me too

Preferably using facts then, and not truth statements, as you taught me.

sure will do
