So, going through relevant parts of the thread.
It was made because of issues with TR, which is bad, since this makes it a stealth CRT for TR, a topic which they're thread-banned from. I see this as a violation deserving of a ban of some duration.
While multi-thread CRTs are rare, I think they should ideally be fine, but this wasn't structured in a very good way. Seems a bit lazy and reactionary. For a topic as diverse as this, a multi-thread CRT is a bad idea. A bit of a violation, but just a warnable one.
I think that Vapourrrrr's statement of "this was made because of spite" was really egged on by Kisaragi's statement of "I smell spite". We can tell from Vapourrrrr's comments in the thread
Ban worthy ? For downgrading calcs ? The TR calcs inspired me to make this
Ignore all of that anyway dude, these downgrades are valid, so this thread is important
That they legitimately think that these downgrades should occur for the site to be consistent. We usually consider "spite" to be targeting verses that the user doesn't like, with either stomp threads or downgrades applied inconsistently. This more seems like Vapourrrrr getting a verse they like downgraded, seeing other verses still up with that reasoning applied against their verse, and trying to get equal treatment.
In a vacuum that's fine, but when they're topic banned from TR, it isn't, imo. I don't think you should stretch them using someone else's language of "spite" to imply a way of acting which is worse than it is.
You are not allowed to speak on the RVT as is, one, you are not staff, I am, and two, Deagonx already warned you not to debate or continue further on this thread.
I will ask staff to delete these derailing comments and focus on the judgment at hand.
This is incorrect. Members are allowed to post to defend themselves.
And, iirc, calc/image mods are not meant to be posting here much more than normal members. You left some unnecessary messages; doubleposting, and the entire post with
This is what "**** around and find out" means. were unnecessary.
fwiw, vapourrrrr's posts in response were also not helping much.
Do not make demands this strict; they're not in line with our standards.
