don't think I didn't see that message on my wall

wtf.... why would ndrutl runo be so mean to a humble community member? wtf is this guys issue

I made what I thought was a calm, reasonable and non-polarizing post to help ease tensions. And one of the first things I saw afterward was your angry emoji reaction to it, for whatever reason. I didn't feel like dealing with more negativity from that thread, so I deleted my comment and decided to step away from the conversation entirely.

If you had replied to my message and explained why you reacted that way, I probably would have left the post up. I'm not sure why you felt that my post misquoted anything you said and I even wrote you that I would edit it if you thought I did missquoted it. But at that time I was going to sleep and didn't want to wake up to public angry responses to what I (IMO) felt was a very level-headed post.

So yeah, next time you could just reply to my "Hey, I saw your angry reaction, did I missquote you? I can edit my post" instead of writing a follow-up gotcha.

Also, I left a message beforehand to the thread owner explaining that I was going to delete my post because I wanted to step away from the thread.

Your feelings got hurt so you decided to take your ball and go home and rob anyone of the chance to keep going with that part of the discussion if they chose to. That's exactly what I'm looking for in a person who codes large chunks of the PS Sim and has important positions of power. Grow the fuck up bro.

Rob, what? That post was a standalone message, it wasn't a response to anyone. When you reacted to it with an angry emoji, I messaged you asking if you thought I had misquoted you, and I said I would correct it. You chose not to reply (cause you clearly saw the message).

The amount of ignorance in your message:

1. I don't have write permissions for PS's code.
2. Even if I did, it's not like I could implement something that depends on policy decisions.

My "power" is restricted to reviewing other's code and bug reports. You actually have more power to change PS's formats through policy than I do.

Grow the fuck up bro.

You know what is really grown up? Tagging others on your own profile just to publicly slander and harass them. That's exactly what I'm looking for in a person that actually has a position of power.

I genuinely have no idea what your issue with me is. Is it because I misunderstood what you said—and then literally messaged you saying I'd correct whatever you thought was wrong? Os is your problem the fact that I deleted the post? Cause you could've just messaged me asking me not to do it because people could've been already responding to it or whatever other reason, but you decided to make this circus.

slander and harass is fucking insane YOU CAME TO ME.

I didn't come to you to harass you, I came to you asking what did I need to change on my post. I literally gave you the power to correct me.

Oh yea so its might fault a fucking angry react was the straw that broke the camels back here. My bad bro!!

You can get off my wall now

I literally don't know what your problem is with me...

If you didn't want me on your wall, next time don't tag me there.

Deleting your post because you didn't want to deal with the blowback is silly as shit. It isn't like you posted and then changed your mind a second after you kept that shit up for hours. People very obviously read the post only now nobody can address it so any point you made goes uncontested. Maybe commit to what you say next time?? Is that such a crazy concept here?

I shouldn't even have that big a problem here if not for the fact that within a minute of my angry react you personally messaged me and within an hour the post was gone and you pretended like nothing even happened. This is obviously some soyrage coming over me right now but I don't fucking know man why are you so shocked that this is annoying me?

hi guys! i’m here too :D

good morning earthflax, I love you. I hope you're having a Captastic day on smogon.com :D

My problem isn't that you were upset about me deleting the post or that it annoyed you—I understand that. I would have understood completely if you had just sent me this last message directly. Contrary to what you might think now, I'm not headstrong (or at least I try not to be) and I'm definitely not an unreasonable person. I even messaged Kinak to apologize for my remarks—the thing I wrote definitely didn't convey the meaning I intended (I probably miss understood the expression).

My issue was with you tagging me on your wall and calling me out the way you did and with the aggressiveness that you did. Most importantly, I hate airing dirty laundry in public. And when it's done by someone with your influence on this website, even the first message you sent, is very derogatory for someone with less clout than you.

I have no problem with you (just like I don't have a problem with anyone I've disagreed with on this website), and I'd like to keep it that way because I think this has blown out of proportion on both sides.

thank you runo, my day is super captastic! :D
