I'm going to say that I'm very interested in pursuing this if only because before it could even get to their response on the topic, 2 people jumped in the way of the speeding train for this one.

Not that I'm sure what kind of alignment that provides you, but it is extremely strange for me.

Also, my role PM is more related to the purpose of the subreddit than to the subreddit's existence itself, but I imagine both could be possible, which means role PMs have a lot of potential scope

124 was a post made by me, Luke. The "grammar is not my strong suit" post was a post made by Marci.

Our subreddit choice has nothing to do with grammar, and I did not expect a posting restriction from it. However, I do see the joke that Cabd used to justify the restriction.

I feel like the moment you see our subreddit choice, it would click into place for you. Let me talk to Marci to see if she is okay with us flavor claiming.

Not really shade, more a general observation that you and JJH both stepped into a line of questioning, resulting in a lessening of pressure.

I've made the same observation every time this has happened before, I think you may have even seen me make this observation before.

I don't know the harm in flavor claiming, and Marci has agreed. I don't know that anyone would guess our abilities based on the flavor.

Our subreddit choice was r/CatsInBusinessAttire.

We chose it for obvious reasons.

As business professionals it is important that that level of professionalism shows in our writing.

Cabd made a joke, and we got a restriction.

Because the kind of speeding train I am has killed people for less and it's strange to me that multiple people chose this path instead of seeing where it lead before stepping in if they felt that way.

Like for me, I feel like there is an increased opportunity that scum want to halt that before it gets rolling, whether Bombay are town or scum.

I agree with Lady Lambdadelta that two people jumping to our defense was surprising

jjh927's in particular felt weird to me. He appeared, declared us town, did not flinch when we voted him, and then proceeded to defend us.

Ok ... so shade? The implication of that post is that you think its somewhat scum-indicicative that me and jjh piped in (possibly with bombay)

Also why would scum want to step in front of the speeding train, especially in the town-bombay universe

Also i kinda hate

Also bombay/lld are not scum together

Skitter's prgression on us felt more natural in comparison.

My gut reaction to the situation was the jjh's was a pocket attempt hiding behind Skitter's initial defense.

I think it was the "well over my day 1 bar for towniness" that rubbed me the wrong way.

Why do you think it's weird that I am happy to defend a stated townread from a push with a role related angle? Is it because you are voting me? Should I be more unwilling to TR you because you voted me? Uncool people are frequently town
