It's like the saying goes, you can't please everyone.
And some people, you can't please at all no matter what you do.

There's a lot of thumps in the pony thread today. What happened?

One guy was complaining about his personal life and some upsetting story he heard on the news. Someone else complained to the mods about it being off-topic, so a mod thumped the original post and all the ones replying to it.

Yeah, it honestly looks a lot worse than it actually is.

Thumps always do. I suspect it's the way fear fills in the gaps of what you know. (Or don't know, rather.)

I find it strange that someone would call out that for being off-topic, and more over that the mod didn't just outright delete the thread for being more than a third of it being off topic anyway.

I suspect that alone got thumped because, aside from being off-topic, it was just unpleasant to read. We get away with straying from the subject because most of the posters don’t mind enough to report it. Someone minded that particular digression.

I see Ike and Mike appears to be the centre of it. I know they like to vent whilst on the place. It's always risky doing that though.

I honestly can't imagine who would take umbrage, given all of the other things that have happened on the thread that sounds pretty tame.

I think it might be more a "Straw that broke the camel's back" thing. Charitably speaking, it isn't the first time that Ike has posted solely to vent about something, so I understand why someone might get annoyed enough by it happening repeatedly that they hollered over it. It generally doesn't happen with most derails because they're generally lighthearted, whereas this one was quite a bit more serious and angry.
