I respectfully request that the entry immediately previous be deleted by a moderator.

This is a community for tech support personnel, not for the airing of personal rants about personal misfortunes. It might be different if it were a long-standing member of the community, but best I can tell, this is a first-time poster.

Should that post be deleted, then this one may as well as it has served its purpose. Or, should my sentiments not be shared, then feel free to delete this as well.

Save yourself the trouble. Since so many people seem to have decided they wanted to get offended by it I have gone ahead and deleted it.
And for the record A) this wasn't my first post, B) I have been in tech support for seven fracking years and C) The reason I posted it here was not what had happened to me but rather I thought that some might enjoy my message to hackers. Obviously I was wrong and some people are too sensitive about such things.

Don't give it a second thought. Some people will bitch no matter what.

I don't see a problem with what you did whatsoever.

A) couldn't tell by looking.
B) doesn't have any relevance.
C) last i checked, this is the comm for tech support people to bitch about tech support.

the only problem was that you were disallowing comments in the original community post, forcing people to visit your personal journal and comment there.

Why did you do that?

Damn, I missed it before it went away.

I'm curious, why not just ignore it and move on?

damn!!!

i missed it to, maybe someone will repost it, lol

and this was better suited as an email to the mod's, not yet another off topic post that doesn't conform to the comm, btw.

An email to the mods or like...start reading it and say to yourself "not interested" and move along. I think these whiny posts are far more annoying than off-topic posts. Silly people.

oh yeah definately. it's like someone accidentally sending something stupid to an email list. initially you only have one irrelevant message, but then you get 100 people sending the same "you shouldn't have sent this message" emails...

i didn't say i didnt like the post, quite the contrary, such whiney posts are rather fun ;)

Agreed.

I will cheerfully admit that my email access will be spotty until the end of the week when I get the sidekick back online, but emailing me at my username @ livejournal.com will get to me, and I do try to check it once a day at the least.

Failing that, a polite email to the Original poster may work as well.

but some people live for drama, or even LJDrama...

Because this is LJ, and there must be drama. No matter what.

So true... let the whining commence!

The drama is justified if it means I get to stare at that icon. That is brilliant. I'd almost forgotten about Numfar!

Because that would make TOO MUCH FUCKING SENSE.

I thought the post was kind of amusing; certainly not something to be printed out and hung on the wall like this was: http://community.livejournal.com/techsupport/541548.html, but amusing nonetheless.

People need to get over themselves and move on down the road.

Love your bio. Added.

I respectfully submit that you're completely and utterly full of shit. If you don't like a post, feel free to SCROLL RIGHT PAST IT.

And secondly: In the future, if you have a problem with something here? Take it to the mod. When you make your own post ripping on the previous, you're as guilty as those you accuse. And i refuse to support hypocrites.



[livejournal.com profile] fiannnachruinne: I say you should put your post back up. Never let some self-appointed douchebag tell you where to get off; we've got a mod for that. Actually, if the post you made here is the same as the one in your personal journal, then i don't know why these fuckbags are getting all butthurt over it. It seemed perfectly reasonable to me.

Aye, but i haven't said that i don't like this post. My own personal like/dislike of this post is completely irrelevant to my opinion on it's appropriateness. That said, i'm enjoying it thoroughly. Having told the poster that he's full of it, the potential for entertainment based off that is nearly infinite. Oh Frabjous day! I love me some internets bickering.

Opinions are like assholes, and i love sharing mine. It's like getting your salad tossed online, without the mess.

I wasn't disagreeing, I was just adding emphasis. :)

I love me some internet bickering too...especially the hits worth quad damage (http://bash.org/?48208). Buahaha.

Jesus. There must be something in the water. Why is everybody so pissy lately?

wasn't worth a read.

But of course. The best way to get people to do something is to forbid it. The best way to get them to read something is to censor it.

I respectfully request that you scroll past the offending post, and try to rethink your position in life that has made you decide to be this uptight.
