Why I will never do another NaNoWriMo again
NaNoWriMo didn’t like one of my replies to a post, so they “silenced” me for a day.
.
One of the people in their forum was complaining that NaNoWriMo isn’t what it used to be, and he found a way to tiptoe around the “fact checkers.”
.
I’m too blunt and wrote a reply to him — one that was considered “disrespectful” — about oversensitive people who think it’s all right to identify as a cat and expect everyone to comply.
.
I wrote to the “fact checker” that our country has the backbone of an invertebrate.
.
After that, the NaNoWriMo people wrote an email that said they would silence me for a week.
.
I wrote back and said that I would not be giving to NaNoWriMo, or doing another NaNoWriMo, EVER so they might as well silence me for a lifetime.
.
The automated system sent me a reply:
We’re sorry, but your email message Re: [[NaNoWriMo]] [PM] wasn’t received. Post hidden by community flags didn’t work.
.
Your account associated with this email address has been silenced.
.
Yep. The USA has become an insane asylum and inmates are running the place.
What a weird way to treat criticism from them.

I was reading an article about this type of electronic shunning when I thought about my post.
The article is an eye opener. https://www.theepochtimes.com/elon-musk-unveils-twitters-censorship-of-hunter-biden-laptop-story-in-2020_4901498.html?
