Awww tesekkur ederim balim My wisdom astonishes me sometimes But this time I apparently failed as Spritzer The Angry didn´t understand my clarification of the TC rules:

Spritzer posted:

"3. Views of moderators and administrators do not represent the views of the site. TurkishClass.com website is not responsible for the opinions of its users.

( this time is did  represent the opinion of administrator )

how did this not affect TC when the photo said  TC graduation ?"

I´ll do my best to break it down more efficiently this time,

1) administrators and mods have the right to have their own opinions

2) their opinions are their personal opinions

3) the fact that they publish their opinions in accordance with TC rules does NOT make them opinions of the website because:

a) this website does not impose a certain point of view/trend on its users, ie, if admin says green apples are tasty, it doesn´t make it true or compulsory for all members to believe so

b) anyone else on this site is free and welcome to disagree with the opinions admins/mods/other users present

4) Although the picture discussed says TC graduation, it is a personal picture, not an official picture of Turkish Class Website and as such represents an individual user´s view. The fact that the user is an admin makes no difference as

1) administrators and mods have the right to have their own opinions

Was this any better, or did you understand it the first time and just chose to pretend otherwise in order to continue your cute outbreak of anger?

DD, great explanation 

DD,
 
Thanks for your time for explaining the forum rules in detail for us.

But some people here talk about some sense of humour. When I look at those pictures I see some people´s misery. I can only feel pity for them let alone feel some sense of humour.

Can you feel any sense of humour when you look at them, too?

I cannot see the point in one´s putting such pictures in their profile tagged as personal pictures.  Maybe somebody can enlighten us on that as well.

I wouldn´t expect you to - it was a joke that would only be understood by a select few [damn! that does sound like a close-knit group - I´ve been sucked in ]

9. Personal attacks or insults towards other users will not be tolerated. Posts with negative remarks about another person´s character that result in or are a cause of conflict or resentment are also subject to deletion by moderators or admins. If someone posts an insulting comment towards you, do not reply to it, it will only start a flame-war, instead send a private message to one of the forum moderators and they will take care of it. Avoid personal correspondence in the forum, use private messages for that purpose.

9a of course unless it is one of the forum administrators and they can do as they wish, say what they wish and attack when they wish .........

Admins and moderators have the right to delete posts if these posts contain abusive, vulgar, insulting language, are particularly offensive or if posts contain personal attacks (or negative statements about another person´s character if it results in a conflict between members).

again except when it comes to their own posts

seems I did not see these options before , they must be on the hiddened list for the monitors

oops I forgot this one  right on the site for putting up personal photo´s but again does not apply for forum moderators or administrators

Pictures you upload must belong to you. (TC Terms and Conditions)

WHAT A SHAM

I have happily lived on this site for about five years now.  Those of you who know me understand my opinions, those who do not know me, I invite you to keep an open mind.  As to my critics I can only say one thing:  I will not be bullied into changing and I will not be forced to wear a burka on this site (in other words...I will not bow down to the wishes of a bully)  My pictures will not be changed unless the owners of this site request that I remove them.  These pictures where posted years ago during a discussion about the suppression of women.  They are meant to protest the patriarchal societies that suppress women and not a comment about the women themselves.  I understand that many people do not agree with me.  I don´t have a problem with that.  What I do have a problem with is being called a moron, a simpleton and a myriad of other things.  As a member of this site, I still have the right to my opinions and I still have the right to express myself despite being an admin.  I also have the right to be free of name calling.   

question one of the rules on the site says when you are loading up a personal photo that you actually must own it  so explaing this one to me how you feel as an admin you can bend the rules for your own purpose

Pictures you upload must belong to you. (TC Terms and Conditions)

second question  seeing as how i did not actually call you a name directly yet  it looks like someone has so as an administrator to a public forum I would advise you (idiom ) " to suck it up buttercup "

or  in other words learn to handle it better than to publically cry about it.

Well, this obviously is a lie. We don´t have a rule that says what you quote here. 

 Obviously another lie...you have called me names although it has been very passive aggressively but your meaning was very clear as was the direction of your comment.  As for "sucking it up" I think I have taken a thread created entirely to criticize my personal profile for the benefit of a new member who isn´t very happy about anything very well, Thank You!

Your comments beg me to ask the question again…..What does it say about YOU if you continue to come to a site that you so clearly despise? What does it say about YOU that you continue to batter away at a point when all you are doing is repeating yourself? What does it say about YOU that you cannot accept the simple fact that while YOU may not like something, it is not going to be changed.

It speaks volumes to the type of person YOU are….an arrogant, bullying, self-righteous, self-inflated egotist. 

Now I fully expect for you to call for my post to be deleted because you are also a person who wants to dish it out but can’t take it. You say others are crying and should suck it up….well right back atcha baby!
