The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

[MNblockhead]

Mostly I've seen it used to throw shade and spread rumors that the ignored user couldn't see or defend against, especially if you have several users doing this together. Sometimes the misinformation would spread beyond the initial forum. One forum in particular got pretty frustrating. Didn't help that the moderation team wasn't quite as active as a place like here. Drove off a few good people over some really petty stuff. Luckily nothing truly damaging but still. Several of us ended up creating our own discord server to get away from the forum and continue to hang out and talk about what brought us together (Skyrim). That particular forum shut down a few years later.

Thankfully I haven't seen any sort of problems like that in a while, and the few I did experience were not first hand but as an observer. The few forums I frequent now are very well moderated and have a very strong, if passionate, community.

Ah, okay. Yeah, unfortunately, I can totally see that happening.

Look, I know everyone being able to see the number would just lead to all sorts of other problems.

But I really want to see the number.

If it is a number about you, then maybe it can be arranged.

I see the usual has ruined that thread.
