I'm surprised this post was deleted
by a Mod! It received 4 Merits from 3 users, and I considered Meriting it myself (but didn't). To me, this summed up a lot of things Bitcointalk stands for: freedom of expression, some sarcasm directed at OP, and a very unsubtle way of saying not everyone is friendly all the time. Nor do we need to be friendly all the time.
I love it that you understand my sense of humor. I'm well aware that it gets lost on many. The post getting deleted surprised me too, but I wasn't going to bring it up. That would seem like complaining and being petty.
The fact that it got reported to the mods in the first place demonstrates that one of two things happened:
- Someone knew it was a joke but can't take a joke, which is, in itself unfriendly behavior.
- Someone took it seriously?
Either way, my post also subtly demonstrated to the OP that this forum isn't "family friendly." My kids are grown, but if I caught them hanging around this forum when they were young I'd be livid. What, with all the gambling, degeneracy, scam attempts, language, and butt pics in the WO...
Fuck that shit!
Anyway, it also made me realize it's been a while since I was very active in the Meta board and perhaps the mods have forgotten about my sarcastic sense of humor. It's about time I retrain them, I guess.
