mw13 – your response is not only misplaced, but mocking her post damages the important, relevant and necessary message that was made on the other thread. That is the damage of leitzanus.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorOh Joe, don’t start that again.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderatoriacisrmma – seriously? This thread bothered you that much?

Many of these threads are written in humor, sarcasm and/or facetiousness and when a poster/lurker reads it and thinks it is a serious discussion about hashkofo it gives the impression we are failing to see the forest when in fact we aren’t.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorExcellence, are you related, by some chance, to Sam Klein?

YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorWTP that was really cute.
I’m really having trouble with the grammatical structure of this thread title. How can a blog be over? I mean I wish blogs were history, but can a notebook be over? Can a chair be over? Or are you asking if blogs are over-something…overrated? overused? overbelieved? It doesn’t even mean anything and somehow got 16 posts.
I’m over it.YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorThanks WTP, I don’t sleep well so I am often up at odd nighttime hours. I do a lot of 3 am posts, if there are any, since that is my worst sleeplessness but the rest of it varies.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderator>(*RebYidd*)<, I guess I owe you an apology. The robot had called my house asking for your number. I didn’t think you’d mind.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderator<<Winnie The Pooh, just wanted to mention that I often do the night shift and I always enjoy reading your posts>>
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorHopefully it’s temporary.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorDid it say it was “only” open for learning with a chavrusa? Or that it was closed to independent learners?
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI can’t go in to Shabbos until this is closed.

YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI don’t have a clue what you are talking about! Do you honestly think that every post somehow relates to you or something you said? Do you have a running list of things you believe people owe you apologies for? I think it would be worthwhile to take this place a lot less seriously. Our jobs in this world are to give apologies, not collect them.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI actually did not contribute to the thread. I put in one post to explain a post that was deleted.

Hmm, I thought I was in charge…
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorPeople do that now. And some people don’t because when you call them on the inaccuracy of their response they want to be able to say they were answering a different post.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorBad idea.
April 27, 2017 10:10 am at 10:10 am in reply to: How are we supposed to add new topics now? #1263990YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorWhy would someone need to add a new topic when almost everything has already been discussed?
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorLU – it didn’t matter if it was fine with him, or fine. It is false and needed to be stated so.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI also donβt know why a moderator had to add comment to my view of modern yeshivish.
As a macho’ah against any statements that those things are “fine” to you or anyone else.
I started off by saying that it was all my own opinion.Outside of the first line of the first paragraph, I don’t see that applying to your post. Either way, whether it is your opinion or not, it is not appropriate to leave a misleading statement such as that one without a very clear disclaimer. Matters of halacha are not subject to our opinions.

YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI’m probably not supposed to say this but, “IT WAS NOT ME WHO APPROVED THIS THREAD”
(sorry, just needed to put that out there)
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorWe werenβt talking about posts being edited.
The thread is titled “being edited…”
Your statement was, “4. The main problem I have with it…” The word “it” can only be referencing an edit.Maybe not your edit, hence the comment, “when posts are edited” as opposed to “when your posts are edited”, regardless, your point was clear and the response stands.YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI do
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorYes, shopping online is most certainly dangerous.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI don’t believe that either.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI hear people defending that behavior all the time. And trying to shut up anyone protesting that kind of behavior.
I don’t believe that for a second.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorSomeone jokes if someone is female, someone else assumes that the person is female…it’s deja vu all over again.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderator4. The main problem I have with it is that it can cause or increase machlokes, since then someone thinks you wrote something bad about them and maybe you didnβt, or maybe it wasnβt as bad as they think, or maybe it wasnβt bad at all and is being misunderstood by the moderators.
This is not a CR modding/editing problem. Someone who feels this way when posts are edited needs to find real life support.

YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorFind a rav who ever told anyone that they should start wearing a burqa, then weβll talk
That’s the question I have been waiting to hear asked and answered!YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorHow can welfare be a parnassah?
When welfare provides you with many of the things you would normally be spending income on, that is called living on welfare. Not sure how else it can be used or understood.People collecting welfare benefits do not do anything or contribute anything for them. If they have a low paying job, that is compensation for goods and services.
“They do not give you these services if they donβt think that you are doing something that is contributing to society. You have to prove that you are working or studying a certain amount of hours a week (at least for some of these services if not all)”
That is not true for welfare. Your requirement is to have little assets and low reported income. Your unwritten requirement is to be honest about your income.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI wasnβt talking about welfare but rather about health insurance, WIC, and/or food stamps)
It is my understanding that those are welfare distributions
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorHow can a comparison be drawn between people receiving money for goods or services and people receiving π° without contributing goods or services? It’s not about the source of the money, it’s about what was done by the person receiving it on order to receive it, no?
Working at the welfare office 40 hours a week and getting a check from them is not equal to walking on with forms and collecting a check.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderatormik5 – It’s funny you say that because on that specific post I was actually contemplating whether or not to write edited (and on other posts at other times as well). I have gotten so much grief from people when the edit isn’t marked, that I was almost afraid not to, so I apologize, because I had really wanted to just leave it without.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI think it’s time to give this side topic a rest. This whole idea of not saying something that might be inappropriate but trying to give lots of hints until someone figures it out thing is not what this forum is for. This is another one of those times when you may have to accept that your view may not shtim with the whole picture and even asking for an explanation is misplaced, let alone expecting one. The posts are not deleted in support of your point, but rather to prevent incorrect assumptions from being passed on. I’ve tried to leave it alone, hoping it would go away on it’s own, but since it won’t I am asking you both to move on.
Thanks.
