Wow Email of the Day

3002 tii · 04-15-2011, 09:14 PM

So I get an email submission for POTM from member Bakayado. Having been around long enough I knew the name wasn't familiar so I checked his profile an sure enough he has only 1 total post as of today. I reply back explaining the rules of a 100 post count min although exceptions are made if he/she is close and they've made significant contributions, ie technical posts or willingness to help other members. His response back to me lol:

Ok dan. Wow. So tell me why you have to 100 posts? It seems completely asinine to me. Have fun with your little photo contest, I thought I was doing a nice thing thing by submitting. Sorry if it wasn't "meaningful" enough for you. Go f*ck yourself.

I guess his picture was a "nice" favor to us?

Swashplate · 04-15-2011, 09:22 PM

Hmm...What a charming fellow.

mfanatic325 · 04-15-2011, 09:26 PM

priceless. Bakayallo is what his name means. It's Japanese slang and swear-word

dorifto88 · 04-15-2011, 09:42 PM

baka baka... idiot

It's the internet. Some people are just thin-skinned and others passive-aggressive. Rules are rules. Sad to see it, but from my moderator days on a different forum, it's so common that I got desensitized. Get called names enough and you start shrugging it off in short order.

Or you have a psychotic episode. One or the other.

Sorry you had to deal with it.

Sheesh. Like I've said before, thanks for putting in the work that makes the POTM fun.

Sadly, what Boondocksaint says is quite true. 'Kitty is a mod/admin on a few sites and man the stories I hear are something. Lots of nuts out there to say the least.

Wow.....I guess we'll all miss the 'shot' he would have submitted....

Dammmittt · 04-16-2011, 05:48 AM

lol that's awesome

RBull · 04-16-2011, 06:34 AM

It would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.

Why don't people grow up and have some respect?

ANUSTART · 04-16-2011, 06:40 AM

There is always medication. It's known to help. Funny stuff.

imz4n · 04-16-2011, 09:27 AM

Sorry you are subjected to that kind of response. I for one appreciate what you are doing. It takes time and effort. KUDO'S to you.

tekmoe · 04-16-2011, 09:34 AM

It's too bad the guy had to come across like that. Not very cool in my book. Maybe you could reply with a simple "I'm not sure why you must use such profane language but the rules are rules" type email. He might realize there is absolutely no need to be such a jerk about it. Then again, he may just attack you even further.

3002 tii · 04-16-2011, 09:37 AM

LOL thanks guys I was not fishing for compliments although it makes me happy knowing you guys do appreciate it (or my efforts are nor wasted). For me I just wanted to make sure I wasn't being unreasonable and it appears not.
