From September to December, the robots.txt at wiki.diasporafoundation.org contained this, and only this:

Apologies for my attitude, I find defenders of the dishonest in the face of clear evidence even more problematic.

Your attitude is inappropriate and violates the sitewide guidelines for discussion.

  • There are currently two references to “Mangion-ing” OpenAI board members in this thread, several more from Reddit, based on the falsehoods being perpetrated by the author. Is this really someone you want to conspire with? Is calling this out more egregious than the witch hunt being organized here?

    • "conspire" and "witch hunt", are not terms of productive discourse.

      If you are legitimately trying to correct misinformation, your attitude, tone and language are counter productive. You would be much better seved by taking that energy and crafting an actually persuasive argument. You come across as unreasonable and unwilling to listen, not someone with a good grasp of the technical specifics.

      I don't have a horse in the race. I'm fairly technical, but I did not find your arguments persuasive. This doesn't mean they are wrong, but it does mean that you didn't do a good job of explaining them.
