Investment forum flagging discussion and post-mortem

[Kasleew]

@Johannes_Sippola

Indeed, if we want to discuss flagging and user behavior, it must be done in the thread indicated by @Paapaa. Over the years, it has become very clear that it is very difficult for Tesla bears and bulls to discuss in the same thread. Even if one were to go through this matter extensively from the beginning of the thread, explaining why the development has been like this, having followed the thread for a long time in the role of a moderator, I can say that the most obvious thing is that many debaters on both sides have a place to look in the mirror. So, instead of specifically blackening another writer, it is advisable to first look in the mirror and consider whether there is perhaps something to improve in the quality of one’s own writings and the expressions/rhetoric used.

Let this message serve as a final warning: if inappropriate messages continue in the thread, regardless of the user’s status/followability/positioning regarding Tesla stock or other similar attributes, the banhammer will start swinging very easily. I am now urgently informing other moderators about this pastoral letter I have issued.

One can only wonder why the administration hasn’t intervened if they’ve been observing from the sidelines for so long? It’s a complete mystery to me how, for example, the personal attack style of the “Emperor” in question has been allowed for years, and then people wonder when it gets reactions. Even now, his latest responses have not been addressed in any way. The “moderation” in that thread has long been about one “Please be a bit nicer here” message per quarter, but let’s hope this really changes now.
