Just a heads up.. I spoke to this user.
While they are cross posting they are also active in responding and monitoring their account (and have responded to people in the past). It appears they just had no interest in responding to you, or at least the question you posed, which is well within their rights.
So their account wont be silenced but I will monitor it for activity. Seems they are an active account and not a bot.
@Pat A lot of people do find you off-putting. I am not one of them, and I do feel they are judging you a bit harshly sometimes. When people have had issue with you I've pretty much defended you... You are fine, just sorry its giving you some social difficulty.
Perhaps if you just soften your approach a bit youll get a better response.
Thank you for that frank assessment. I really appreciate it and I appreciate that qoto is an actual inclusive instance.
Yeah, my commentary often has a lot bite to it, and I talk about things that people don't always want to hear. But you're right, presenting messages in a way that doesn't bug those people so much will help make the community more comfortable for everyone.
I'll work on that.
@Pat @freemo dear Pat, I'm sorry, I don't know you and I have no particular relationship to you, certainly not negative. As far as I can tell (apologies if we've had a previous exchange that I don't connect to this situation), you felt ghosted by me because you commented on a post of mine with a question that I didn't find a good reason to respond to. I regret the misunderstanding. What I can do is to apologise for the part I've caused. I do agree with you that it's fair not to continue unless any of us sees a reason to do so. Cheers buddy!
@freemo
I think I get ghosted more than others because of my developmental disorder. That's fine, I'll just mute them so I don't have to deal those folks.
