What personally offends me more are the takes throwing reasonable, grounded critical positions in the same bus with the overreactions.

Seems like you might be taking offense to some stuff that's not directed at you. I jumped into the game thread at the end of the last loss, read a bunch of posts like Halfnir's example above, and called it toxic. Sleepinghero engaged me in a back and forth and we had a productive conversation that facilitated both of us being able to flesh out what we were thinking. As a counterexample to Sleepinghero, your response to what I posted in the game thread was to follow me around the site making strange, semi-personal snypes.

Was definitely annoyed by your takes, maybe it was because I found some of them being counter positions without adding anything, finding them in almost every thread that day. Felt like you had an agenda on one day pushing anti positions to posters you didn't agree with.
Was definitely passive aggressive as a reaction to my impression. 

Definitely commended some of your more flashed out posts as well though. I think you have stopped pushing your agenda and being more substantial in your posts again.

We all are rarely as one-sided as our posts make us look, or as we perceive the posts of others.

I'm comfortable with what I add, you don't have to be. 

My "agenda" was to participate in the conversation that night. At the time that I jumped in the fray I was about the only person arguing my point of view and I ended up responding to and interacting with multiple people who had responded to my initial posts. I have a hard time characterizing that as "pushing an agenda". 

And whatever I was doing that night, I haven't stopped doing it, in the sense that, if that conversation were to happen again I'd probably add my two-cents again. 

Address my content all you want (for that matter snype at me all you want), but if you want discussion about the content, the personal snypes won't help to facilitate that. Even your "praise"  (and even this post I'm responding to) has veiled personal commentary.

This is one of the problems with me being a mod! LOL. I'm not rep-ing the site in these conversations (or in my Mavs opinions). And I'm definately not rep-ing the site well (if someone sees me as a rep) in getting in a little spat with a fellow poster. 

My bad for that too. 

Being honest Psych, you got to me with the personal stuff. 

My bad for that too.

Haha, no problem. Doesn't feel like you are acting as a mod in this conversation.

I'm also willing to let things go. For me it was not as personal as you might have thought. And personally, I don't feel like it ever went ugly.

Next time we should use PM's though.

It would be my first action as a mod. Only, I don't know how to do it. Maybe I can figure it out. Let's see.

It would be fitting for my first action as a mod to be moderating me.
