I just hope I can get my new laptop soon… before the world sinks below sea level or collides with the sun.

@offtobettershores Ah, actually I remember watching tapes of this experiment in psych class
I’d say not too influenced, I get uncomfortable when I’m amongst friends and I feel like I’m in a minority position but I tend to speak up when I think others are wrong, regardless of who it is
It’s actually gotten me in trouble before tbh

Please take the climate change conversation somewhere else. People who don’t believe the science are beyond convincing, and this is the wrong forum for that discussion.

You don’t have to read it if it offends your pieties.
And please don’t send me more unsolicited PMs.
This post was for framework announcing that their shipping is Carbon offset not to debate about climate change, take it somewhere else.

God yes! I’m as green and introspective about it as the next guy, but who isn’t getting ridiculously tired about the relentless onslaught of regurgitated unoriginal drivel about the legitimacy of science in every completely inappropriate spot they turn?
Tell me more about the orange bezel I’m going to get SOON, or pipe down!

My guess is that all of you just want to shut up a point of view you personally disagree with. It’s a conversation that can follow from the announcement itself, so I don’t buy this “it’s inappropriate” snivelling for a minute.
But out of consideration for the people who have to keep this place organised I have said before and say it again: I’m happy for the conversation to be moved.
@FrameworkBee would you be kind enough to move this whole conversation to off-topic, or perhaps archive it, since I have incautiously incited a mob that is now bombarding me with outraged PMs?

I’ll remind everyone here of the community guidelines especially the part where it says
“Respect each other. Don’t harass or grief anyone, impersonate people, or expose their private information”
Everyone else…no more needs to be said on the thread started by @offtobettershores , all viewpoints were expressed adequately and thoroughly, please let the matter drop
@FrameworkBee Please move this thread elsewhere before this turns into some sort of flame war, I really don’t think people are fully reading the thread and are just jumping to conclusions

Since there seems to be arguing and angry DM’s being sent. I think it’s best we completely move on from the topic! If additional threads are created in off-topic, that’s fine and we will continue to monitor. But, I personally do not wish to create the conversations

Just want to leave it on record that I did not reply to any of the angry DMs I received.
@FrameworkBee I’m sorry, but I don’t think it’s appropriate for you, in the role of moderator, to drop a like to the uncivil post of @Richard_Lees Perhaps it was a mistake?

I think the post was taken at face value as enthusiasm for alternate bezels and not a response to you

This was exactly why, as I am excited as well for our bezels to be in stock. I do not care to entertain arguments or drama.
@offtobettershores I apologize if you feel as if my like was not appropriate. I was simply enjoying their enthusiasm as it was a step away from the previous conversation. I did not think people would perceive it poorly which I do apologize for.
I just ask that we move on, and if anyone has any additional comments or concerns please DM me

This, I don’t like it either. But please note that the conversation was going smoothly and polite and even winding down to a close when some other users decided that it was ok to send me rude DMs. As the holder of unpopular opinions I know I’m less likely to get a break. In the end, however, it does not matter that much and I’m more than happy to move on as there are more positive things to talk about.

I sent you the PM instead of flagging your comment for being off-topic. That’s an option which is offered when you go to flag someone.

And this is what I wanted to avoid…
Everyone for the love of god-shut up and drop it, don’t react anymore, just move on

Your DM was just as rude as your post. Now please drop it. The discussion is over.
Alright, that’s enough. Please drop it. The next to respond regarding this conversation or finds a way to instigate further, we will unfortunately, need to mute you.
I do not like to moderate others, but since we all cannot get along, it, unfortunately, has to get to this point.
Thank you, everyone, for understanding

If it’s actively about the blog, that’s fine! I should have clarified, my apologies. My post was in regards to the ongoing argument happening… ;-;
After some further thought and discussion, we have agreed to lock this thread from further comments. We hope that everyone can understand
