YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderator
Are you using two at once in some sort of virtual-reality-3D type of process
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorWell thank you for including us.
I happen to be losing my mac after 8 years and am looking to buy a new laptop but can’t decide if I want another mac. Now I’m concerned about buying a computer with the wrong colors. Do you think it has an adverse effect on other aspects of your life? Perhaps the programmer on one was color blind?YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorIs there a question involved here or are you just sharing some quality time with us?

YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderatoryekke, knowing the whole picture, I don’t see those errors in your original post. I think it is important to remember that in addition to knowing the back story to the posts and posters is the simple fact that something going unnoticed is not equal to something not being said.

Hard not to be curious how what criteria you use to deem others lesser than you.
April 20, 2017 4:44 pm at 4:44 pm in reply to: The “Defend Something You Are Against” Challenge #1258373YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI don’t know….I think that by throwing the word into your response you were detracting from the real display of growth and maturity which is to not be bothered by insults without having to put them down in order to do it.
Additionally, considering how many insults are only dubbed so by the receiver and not the speaker it would behoove you to not let it bother you simply because your sense of self is not contingent upon it, not because you have ‘butled’ them and their opinion.
April 20, 2017 2:57 pm at 2:57 pm in reply to: The “Defend Something You Are Against” Challenge #1258308YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderatoryekke2 – Really?
…being able to accept insults from lesser individuals without it bothering you.
If you have to call them lesser in order for it not to bother you than you may not be developing the midda appropriately.
By considering them ‘lesser’ you may be meeting them half way instead of learning to handle criticism.YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorIn a moment of clarity uninstall the app and beg Hashem to reward that step with success.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI am vehemently opposed to the pesach hotel situation as a very general rule, but this thread isn’t working for me either….
(No offense to the OP and his intentions)
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderatormw, I have to agree with ubiq that you are calling it quits for the direction of ad hominem and hatred but it sounds like you are the one who is angriest and attacking personally. On the other hand I agree wholeheartedly with you that this thread needs to close. As a matter of fact I think I have actually done it already once.
I would think it would benefit everyone who posted here to reread some of the posts that angered you so much and see, when removed, if it really said what you thought/accused it of saying. I believe there were more foaming mouths responding to things they assumed they read then what they actually read. And that prejudice we carry, I believe, is even sadder that the subject at hand.
Good Shabbos all.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorBaruch Hashem the one to whom the message was addressed understood it’s meaning.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorMaybe Iβm missing something
Yes, maybe you are.April 5, 2017 9:02 pm at 9:02 pm in reply to: The “Defend Something You Are Against” Challenge #1251588YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorNE, I didn’t tell you off, I was responding to – “Sorry, it had to be said. This thread is not only unworkable and pointless, but people arenβt even fulfilling the supposed premise. I appreciate the effort involved, but letβs not fool ourselves this is anything other than a ridiculous charade.”

Thank you
April 5, 2017 3:07 pm at 3:07 pm in reply to: The “Defend Something You Are Against” Challenge #1251267YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorOh yekke, you must be joking. If you and NE don’t want to participate then feel free to click elsewhere. If overdramatizing could be applied here I would certainly say it applies here.
Sheesh
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderatorsigh
Shopping, I cannot tell you how many times I have had to edit your opinions on frum music, books etc. I think you need to understand that your limited exposure to what is available cannot be transformed into potential l”h about what is actually out there. My son has about 50G of kosher music and is constantly downloading more. I would love to let people here prove it to you, but I also don’t have the energy erev Pesach to “worry about” what is being posted and about whether or not we are being nichshol by listing female singers that we know some males are going to look into.I am torn about the productivity vs destructive potential
I do wish you would try to be more positive as well.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorTo the OP: I closed the other thread. If you don’t like the topic or the contents, why in the world did you bring it back?
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI wouldn’t want to say Joseph is right but your perception is indeed incorrect. If they have smartphones, which I think they are not supposed to, they would need to be ‘tagged’. Maybe you confused “…that filtering wouldn’t be expected of them” with “…that filtering wouldn’t be requested of them…because they wouldn’t think to do otherwise”
I do know my son’s friend who is there was not allowed a smart phone and only this year was allowed a kosher phone.I am mildly uncomfortable with your willingness to speak this way about any group that you know you may be wrong about. Not quite like you…..
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorHey there! Glad you found us!
#BeinHazmanimReturns
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorThanks, both of you.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorThrowing people off my track? What track? I was pointing out that it wasn’t something I said but something you inferred. The comment was made because after a bunch of random answers showjoe picked the grim reaper, which no girl would have chosen.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorOh, and I never said I was female, that was another assumption made from a joke in a 20 questions thread.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorWow, no need to be so rude.
I don’t speak for others or decide what they meant so my advice does not apply.
I said that based on your explanation above, ZD was on target. It was neither a typo nor a misunderstanding. Feel free to re-read both of your posts and the questions preceeding them.YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorWell based on that ZD was right on target.
ZD, your posts about the ‘sell’ were well stated!
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorThat really wasn’t the concern at all. It was a message to the poster who understood it. If you are trying to understand something, a good rule of thumb – asking is preferable to drawing your own conclusions.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorMeno, I cannot tell you how many times I open a post to write something only to find you have already posted it.
I was only going to add that this thread probably will do more for their business than less.YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI feel ya…

YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI responded to your claim that it is not a mitzvah if there is emotional or physical safety involved, not if it needs to be done. The claim has been said to be incorrect and that was what I was concerned about. This last post is discussing what should or shouldn’t be done, that was not the subject of the question, it was the statement that it is not a mitzvah.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»Moderatorrandomex, post-1238776 says I edited twice and I didn’t. I only entered that one line.
Go figure.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorThank you iacisrmma.
We have deleted posts were someone wrote some very harsh words of retribution to a poster who may have said something disrespectful to Torah. This guy sent such a hateful scathing post to the mods about our disgusting moderating using personal viewpoints and not supporting Torah or yeshivish views at all etc etc. What he missed was that he had two lines of nivel peh in his original post that couldn’t be put through.
Try assuming you are missing lots of pieces to the story.YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorI am very, very concerned. Bein Hazmanim is just around the corner and NeutiquamErro and Yekke2 may not know about the CR’s move. What if they go to the old CR and find all the lights off and doors locked. Will they feel abandoned? Will they take their luggage and return to the dorm? Will they think a whole community turned their backs on them?
I am concerned for their emotional safety and well being.
#OhNoNotThisAgain
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorIt is not a mitzvah if it comprises someoneβs emotional and physical safety.
I am not sure that is backed by halacha…..anyone?
March 19, 2017 1:45 am at 1:45 am in reply to: Where was Joseph while the CR was being upgraded? #1238107YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorThat’s a title, not a subtitle.

YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorWell, until subtitles are back up and running we will have to use other measures to entertain our posters (except those posters who think the mods shouldn’t be entertaining them). Perhaps a bit of color?
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorSo, who wants to be modded first????
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorBored bachurim, lonely kollel wives or the guys who sit and laugh at them behind their backs?
π
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorThat’s why we celebrate it with irrational behavior.
YW Moderator-29 π¨βπ»ModeratorC’mon ubiquitin. You know that isn’t what he said. Whether or not you see it the same way, there is no question he didn’t say that.
