Feb. 15, 2023—comment by JohnnyYeet: "'I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way So [sic] I stole someone's bike and asked God for forgiveness.' - George Washington, probably"

Feb. 18, 2023—reply to JohnnyYeet's comment, written by Neodymium: "I also asked god to give me the power of prophecy to learn of the future invention of the bike. - George Washington, probably [sic]"

May 6, 2023—reply to JohnnyYeet's comment, written by unimp0rtant: "'I asked God to punish the person who stole my bike, and gave him a double thumbs up.' -George Washington's neighbour whose bike was stolen"

Jul. 9, 2023—reply to unimp0rtant's reply, written by McKenzieFam: "Someone asked me for a bike, then took matters into his own hands and stole a bike before asking me for forgiveness. Then the guy who had his bike stolen asked me to punish the first guy. A third person asked me for prophecy because the bike hadn't even been invented. All claimed to be the same guy. So I forgave them all before punishing everyone too. -God"

Sep. 22, 2023—reply to McKenzieFam's reply, written by kartaj: "I asked God to punish the person who asked for the power of the phrophecy so i could learn about the future invention of the bike, create one for my neighbour, then steal it without him knowing. - George Washington"

Mister we could use a man like Neodymium again

facts were always gladly lent

Log on to your favorite turf

stupid fact about a serf

if ice is thin, I am upon it so i find it best thenceforward for myself to thread lightly.

I do not, respectfully, formally, moderator fearlingly, agree with the action of that person, though I agree that that person does own the site and can do what that person wants. Disagreement with the political system may be a right granted by the country that person is native to yet ofcourse, that person can do whatever they wish on their site. Even though, in some opinions, not mine, that person does have a lot of political opinions on this site, that person is still in their right to moderate as they wish, even if the opinion offered by the owner of the blog i am writing in was the most brainfull opinion, like the e****** c****ge is h*rr*ble (which may or may not be my opinion). I may or maynt think this one of highest miscarrages o justice in this site, tho it is that person’s final say we must submit to.

Let me clear up some misconceptions.

1) I deleted Dawn's comment on my quiz and the changelog, not Dan. The changelog (and similarly my quizzes) are not a place to beg for the unbanning of other members.

2) This site is owned entierly by QM. I am not affiliated with it, and do not get involved with English or users. I help with the development / coding and also manage the non-English side of JetPunk.

3) QM has several other responsibilities besides JetPunk. He solely moderates all quizzes and comments, and this means he can't spend hours weighing the pros/cons of particular users.

4) Comments from an entirely user are almost never "deleted", but when a user is hidden all their comments from quizzes/blogs they don't own is hidden.

5) QM is a human being and his views on how to run JetPunk evolve over time. Comments he made 3 years ago may not be indicative of current outlook.

+7
Level 68
Mar 8, 2024
6) JetPunk has never been a democracy, nor should it be. JetPunk is a business and costs of server hosting and bandwidth have skyrocketed the past few years to the point where JetPunk is barely profitable, and requires funding from QM's other interests. This means decisions and views are often taken to ensure the site stays online and functional. (Hence the comments made about Telugu JetPunk / Indian users, though the numbers are completely wrong). But, this also means that JetPunk can't be run democratically, nor can it pander to every user. If it did, QM would not have the time to run other projects to keep JetPunk alive.

Overall, what I am saying, is have sympathy for the person who has kept JetPunk online, free and largely un-corporatized for 16 years now. He is a human being, and has thousands of users to maintain and moderate. If hiding a single one makes it easier to moderate the site, then sorry, but you're not more important than anybody else.

+8
Level 68
Mar 8, 2024
You're lucky to be only hidden, most users who cause problems for QM end up banned, or worse IP-banned (so you can't even load JetPunk). Because this is a far cheaper, easier and saner solution than trying to keep those users happy. So maybe be a little less inconsiderate before trying to plan an intervention.

And lastly, remember that QM could easily take JetPunk offline entirely if it becomes unsustainable to fund. Especially if moderation becomes a problem or flame wars ensue widespread. And that's just the worst case scenario for everybody.

"Finally"?

Please don't forget, I have a full-time job irl, I do JetPunk in my spare time, I haven't had a free weekend since 2023 and have currently been quite ill with flu for 2 weeks.

Heyyy stewart

About these server hosting problems, could jetpunk host in a different, cheaper country? Would that help solve them? as for those numbers i made em up to explain the problem

QM has looked extensively into hosting, the problem is JetPunk is so big that most smaller hosts won't accomodate it. And no it can't be in a cheaper country, as it needs to legally be hosted in the same country as JetPunk's company.
