I have an idea, a compromise....
Why don't we have a secular community here
It could work like this:
For the New Generation we have:
We have a detailed rule book of do's and don'ts including use case examples and exercises that can be done in one's spare time and also guidance on how to run workshops on the same for like minded individuals
The new generation can in a secular fashion live on CUK abiding by their rules and their laws
For the rest of us:
We carry on business as usual
How to run this in a secular way ?
Well we don't need symbols or icons, we all know which side of society we are from and belong to
We can all exist in the same world but simply ignore the other secular group as if they do not exist
Anybody can contribute to any thread, those from one brotherhood will respond to posts from their brotherhood and those from the other to the other
I think I see a suble war of attrition going on (look it up Minestrone) between the mods and the great unwashed. The direction is clear and several heavy handed measures have been used to make examples of certain posters.
Coming from several weeks ago when I for one thought the moderation on here was practically non existant, to conscripting new mods, I think things are going to improve.
From a personal stand point I have received feedback from posters in general and a certain mod what is good and what is bad to post. This has got through to me and I will try and up my game if everyone else does likewise.
IF however I see crap posts about kebabs in Germany for example, and other likewise cretinous threads, I will of course forget what I just said and carry on as normal.
The fate of CUK standards rests in your hands people, but try and understand what an augean task it must be to raise the bar from "their" perspective.
the reply again represents how the new generation take everything personally and respond at a personal level instead of an objective subjective level
Less of this new generation thing, youngster. I was getting this 'I was here first' crapola from eejits on Usenet 20 years ago, and it was bollards then too.
Eat it up. Things change. Move with it. Less b*tchsquealing.
...isn't this representative of their generation, rules for the sake of rules instead of commonsense and understanding and knowing the difference in the fine line of over stepping the mark and not over stepping the mark
...
Yes. Well said.
Coupled with a lack of respect for anything or anyone, and getting upset at the merest suggestion that the world does not revolve around them.
