Uhm...
So you wrote how you perceive some recent conflict on Slack. I wasn't there. You don't provide quotes or anything specific. All I know is that you are angry and blame other people. What specific reaction did you expect here, and why?
Just saying that from a perspective of a person who wasn't there, Elo's description sounds much more plausible. Like, "not being specific and not being clear" matches what I see here. Anyway...
Considering that this is your first contribution on LW (the website), you just wasted an opportunity to make a good (or even neutral) first impression.
However, if you just make a new account and try again (on this website, not Slack), I believe no one would bother checking whether it is the same person or not, so if you are actually interested in talking about rationality, this is an option.
Thank you. Your comments are noted.
The slack is a private group and there is some cultural fit needed for a gated community. This was at least the third flare up with you and I addressed each one when they happened. I received pressure for not being more strict.
Highlights:
If you can change all these and be collaborative to truth seeking, you can come back in a year. Just pm me. Until then you can learn in other forums all over the internet.
I don't owe you this explanation but I give this freely.
LessWrong is not the place for this sort of complaint, hence the downvotes (including mine).
Note that while the Slack channel has a similar name, it is an independent entity run by Elo, and doesn't have the same moderation team.
occasionally appending "only an idiot would say that" to your statements
Well, this is just a lie. Other points are misleading or outright made up too, but this one is particularly blatant.
On the other hand, jollybard call me a jerk and an idiot for a few times, and you paid zero attention to it.
But who cares, right? Long live the echo-chamber.
Well, I don't have any idea what to do with the guy who just lies into my face. Especially when he got the power to ban me just because he feels like that.
Apparently, lesswrong.com is not a place for any discussions.
Facts:
1. A few days ago I had a kind of a clash with one guy in the Lesswrong Slack channel; that guy went aggressive and started calling me names.
2. The moderator (eliot) stepped in and started blaming me for "adversarial and non-collaborative behavior"
3. After that both guys seemed to hold a grudge against me and tried to criticize whatever I wrote on every occasion, no matter how made up their criticism was
4. Some more days later, my account in Slack is banned with no warning
And after all this, I feel extremely disappointed. This is not how rational discussions should be conducted.
