I was thinking if I wanted make a response to any of this or not, but after reading this one post this post I have to respond to it specifically. I know it's just a random opinion but idk I just find it kinda weird? SO here's my opinions:

As a GMT (you), I don't really notice much air of professionalism from you.
What I personally really like about how OT is modded is how approachable and integrated GMTs feel. In a lot of other online spaces that are big enough to have dedicated moderation that I've been in at least, mods feel like a separate entity from the rest of the community, put there to exclusively delete NSFW posts and make announcements about rule changes and whatever. This is also how it feels in most of the other subforums in the osu forums, but OT feels different. The mods here feel like anybody else that's here, to the point that the "Global " tag has nearly completely lost it's weight for me.
Yeah you can definitely be a that's fully a part of the community and be professional with your modding duties, and I will agree that Corne doesn't have much professionalism which it would be nice if he had more of in certain cases, and I will also say that professionalism would be very good in cases above a certain seriousness threshold, but I personally don't really care about professionalism because I think professionalism in OT in the vast majority of cases isn't important, and I think it's cool how the mods aren't incredibly professional, which makes them feel more like a part of the community I think.

Most of the mod actions I saw you take are followed by childish remarks or made as if having a grudge.
I guess Corne likes to make jokes and non-serious remarks when doing mod actions, but again, I don't think it's important in the vast majority of cases and I also think it's kinda neat. Not really sure how things come off as "childish", I guess for me the way Corne speaks is kinda childish maybe, but I don't really get any real "childish" vibes from anything else, nor do I feel being a bit childish is an issue if you do your job properly and are serious and mature when those things are needed, which I feel Corne is for the most part. Also I'm not sure what you mean by him making mod actions "as if having a grudge".

Your "zoomer grammar" doesn't help you look professional either.
What do you mean by "zoomer grammar"? Under my personal definition of what "zoomer grammar" is, the only two people that I can think of that post regularly in OT and use "zoomer grammar" outside of making "zoomer grammar" jokes is me and Jarcrafted, maybe Dementedduck (and looking at this thread, Reyalp)? Not Corne though. And again, I wouldn't really care if Corne used "zoomer grammar" or not as long as he does his job as a mod well.

I also don't really agree with some thread locks you make on some genuinely fun threads to participate.
Yeah also I don't really agree with some of Corne's locks, but honestly with how locks are treated in OT, outside of stuff that blatantly goes against the rules locks really do feel like they're to be used however the fuck the mod wants, and I don't really mind because no-one goes overboard with it. In fact I think the way locks are looked at in OT is actually really cool, like they've ascended just being a modding tool to stop rule-breaking threads and into a cool concept that feels like part of the culture. It's to the point that Abraker can do meta-roleplay by locking the entire front page and it's actually really fun instead of annoying, and a lot of threads that eventually get locked have people joking about how the thread should be locked before a mod follows up, like locking is a shared, communal, cultural thing instead of something only restricted to mods. Basically all this to say I don't really mind Corne's locks because he doesn't go overboard and they fit in with the culture of OT overall.

In general, you give an air of arrogance too for some reason.
No? For me Abraker (and also a lot of the s from older generations) feels 100x worse in of arrogance and it's not to the point where I care at all.
While I do this I might as well do the other opinion of Corne

you lack a little bit of commitement as a GMT
I don't think so personally, I feel like Corne is very active and does modding activities when they are needed, just I guess in a more lenient manner than Abraker. This dude is on OT every day multiple times a day idk that feels like enough commitment for me. Or maybe you mean this in a way that I'll talk about later then I agree
Patatitta wrote: 5t25
also you're 100% a closeted furry
yes
And also give some criticism myself:
The only thing I feel like I can really say is that I don't really like how you haven't really done anything with OT once you became it's overlord. Like Abraker felt like kinda the heart and soul of OT even though I wasn't around for most of it, half the most notable threads were made by him attempting to chronicle everything, and he's been a driving force in stuff like roleplay (which I guess is mostly a relic of the past now), and he's made lots of great threads, even nowadays with the board-game thread, while idk it feels you haven't done much of anything outside of the OT book (more on this later) and simple moderation. I definitely don't think this should be any sort of obligation, I think as long as you do the job of moderation properly all is well, but it would be really cool to see what Corne2plum3's OT could be, beyond you just leaving OT to it's own devices like how you do nowadays.
I don't want to bash you for doing barely anything for OT overall while completely ignoring what you've done for the OT Book so I just wanted to say your contributions to the OT Book are actually goated, like this shit would've literally died like 5 times over without you around, I am 100% not reliable enough to run something by myself
As for the other stuff patatitta if you want my take then I'll guess I'll respond to it, otherwise I wont
