At least this guy is persistent

@vinnis1_PSN @Dolenz_PSN @allday9128_PSN
Appreciate you guys!
I see at least 7 replies, many from the usual suspects, trying to bait me into responses to get the thread locked and me suspended (with @sbchamps17_NSW straight up calling for a lifetime ban. He straight up admitted he didn't read my post and then went on to make assumptions to back up his call for a ban.) I hope the enforcement of behavior goes both ways, because right now I'm not entirely sure it does.

Well, the OP created another post that he created a few days ago that ended up getting locked. Creating multiple posts of the exact same thing could be seen as spamming (especially after it has been locked). Other than that, there is nothing anyone has typed that has violated the TOS, so I don't see a reason for SDS to ban anyone else in this forum just because the OP has admitted that he was banned in the past. SDS not banning other people (in this topic or any where else) who have not violated the TOS should not be seen as SDS not going both ways with the ban hammer.

@dap1234567890_PSN is going out of his way to hijack the thread and says virtually the same thing every time. I haven't seen him reply to a single point I brought up, and he's focused on discussing anything but the topic at hand. The thread isn't titled "What do you dislike about me and things I did in the past?" Just to be clear, he's not violating any rules by doing this?

@Squid_Adams_PSN Hijack because I made comments? Ok.
I thought you were all about "first amendment free speech rights", but I guess it's only for you and no one that has a differing opinion. However, I have not violated the TOS, so I am allowed to make posts. There is nothing wrong with what I have posted in this topic. Seems like you are "targeting" me again like you did in the last topic you made that was locked up. -
This all reminds me of a video I’ve seen on socials, I’m sure many have seen it as well. An old woman keeps going to her neighbors house complaining that his backyard light is shining in her house and it’s annoying. He went to her house to see what the problem is and nothing there, but yet, she keeps coming over to complain. Finally the neighbor realizes that there’s something else to this, so he comes up with a plan. He told her he felt that she must be lonely and that he’d be more than happy to have morning coffee with her and listen to her talk about whatever she wants. Guess what, complaints stopped and he felt good about helping an older neighbor.
You remind me of the neighbor complaining over nothing. If you’re lonely and need someone to vent to, please feel free to DM me, I’ll listen, I’ll offer advice (if you want), but mostly I’ll just listen and give you an avenue to vent so you aren’t getting yourself all worked up and combative. If I’m way off, tell me to go pound sand, just trying to offer a different avenue for you, since clearly this options isn’t working out. I’m here for you bud!!

While I do appreciate the gesture, I don't think I'm the right person you're looking for. I'm a lot like you. I'm a keen observer of human behavior. Just one example being a steak dinner I had with family around New Years Eve. I saw an older gentleman at a table with 4 seats, but was there by himself. Every table was occupied with families, couples and friends, but this gentleman was the only one by himself. It kept nagging at me before I placed my order, all the way up to getting my food. I invited the gentleman over to join us, though he politely declined. On his way out of the restaurant, he stopped by our table and thanked me again for the gesture. He then told me his wife had passed away a little more than a week ago. This isn't me donating money to a cause or anything like that, but not having tunnel vision, observing people and being an empath could go a long way to directly impact someone.
That said, there are legitimate problems with this game, so could never classify it as "nothing." But I'm going to focus on what I liked about your post. I hope you do this in your regular life as well!
@yankblan_PSN
I think that's only needed for @dap1234567890_PSN at the moment. I'm on my best behavior and exercising discipline not to take his bait. -

@Squid_Adams_PSN -- Again, and to be clear -- there's no issue with your list of feedback. This also isn't about "silencing" opinions or "free speech" (as far as locking your threads goes).
The problem with your recent posts is in the subsequent conversation, and the fact that they tend to devolve into conversation that isn't productive. I'm not saying you're doing it on purpose, only that it's the pattern I'm noticing.
I'm going to lock this thread as I did with the others because, based on the past, I suspect the conversation here might get worse before it gets better. That said, I will add a link to this thread to the list of feedback I keep and share with the team so that you can consider it documented and seen.
I'm genuinely happy to continue the conversation with you in DMs if you want. Just send me a note anytime.
To everyone:
I can't stress enough how valuable all of the feedback we get from all of you folks is -- good, bad, or indifferent -- is, but we have a certain standard of conversation quality and respect on these forums, and it's my responsibility to uphold it.
I won't do any banning based on this thread, but please consider this a heads-up that quality of conversation matters here as does respect. Treat others the way you'd want to be treated and if you don't have something kind, respectful, and/or productive to say, it's ok to not say anything at all.
