Hey Lemon,

Moderation is difficult , and I know it can get exhausting. There’s always room to improve for this community to embrace our decisions, but it’s a tricky balance. if you don’t act, there’s criticism; if you do act, there’s criticism;.

I think it might be a good time for you to take a break. You’ve done a lot for this place and definitely deserve some recognition for it. Focus on your projects and enjoy the site as a regular user instead of a moderator. Or take a full on break.

Ah sorry, in my last comment I referred to you as Jade. Didn’t know you changed it. My apologies.

Hey Jade,

I’m not sure what you mean, so I can’t really help with that.

Even if he shared his ID, I’d avoid commenting on his age since it’s personal info. But honestly, it’s unlikely he’s actually 32 if he’s here stirring up drama.

Hope the drama is not too overwhelming! I’m a bit busy at the moment, but if you tag me in anything needing moderation, I’ll check it out as soon as I can. (Or one of the other mods, of course.) Since another moderator has already flagged the post you’re referring to, I’m going to assume they’re more informed about what’s going on. I’ll let them handle the drama for now. As I mentioned, I’m busy, but I’ll catch up on the situation when I can.

Sorry I type a lot

TL:DR?: Just read lemon\’s post.

The incident we had was three months ago, and I’ve barely been active since then. Yet, you still seem to think there’s a target on your back because of that one event. I hope you read this message not with a hostile tone or anything like that, but as a genuine effort to improve things here. If you\’re carrying around the idea that I have a personal vendetta against you after all this time, it might be worth asking yourself if that\’s really the case or if it\’s something you\’re projecting. Holding onto this belief could be causing you to act differently, even when there’s no real reason to. Sometimes, we latch onto an idea so tightly that it starts to shape our actions, even if it’s not based in reality anymore. It might be time to step back and reconsider what’s really going on. The issue might not be as personal as you think, and you could be letting an old conflict affect how you see things now.

Personally, I can handle people thinking that everything they disagree with is somehow moderated by me if that makes them feel better. But at the end of the day, that mindset just makes this place more toxic. Blaming someone for things they aren\’t even involved in doesn’t solve anything. It just drags out conflict and makes it harder for everyone to move on. If we\’re constantly looking for a scapegoat, then we’re only feeding into negativity and division. It\’s time to consider if that’s really what you want, or if there\’s a better way to approach things.

And this isn’t just for you. this is an opportunity to address the general issues within the community. We all love to do things like \”OMG Noderx?!!\” whenever something goes wrong/is dodgy, but this habit of pointing fingers or fixating on one person when things don’t go our way is harmful.

This improvement starts with all of us.

Edit: Apologies, Sir Lemon! I accidentally replied to your comment. Please forgive me!

What happened to your mindset? You could’ve made some good money off that \”recovery service\” and charged him for getting his lost image back.

This is why we won’t become rich.

Utter disappointment.

I mean. That’s quite normal. ( I think)

I’m not familiar with the exact terminology, but they’re called polygons or something similar. More polygons mean better visuals but lower performance, while fewer polygons result in worse visuals but better performance.

Like this.

Basically, it prevents phones from going boom.
