Archeage had plenty of real discussions till the creepy got so bad that memes were an actual improvement. Bfm named his ship Icelandic teenager and people were defending it

I guess my problem is that, as someone who's primarily here to talk about video games, thread derails annoy me because they prevent conversations from taking place. BFM is a huge creeper and I'm glad he didn't manage to slip under the radar, but I'd like to see those problems addressed in a way that still leaves room for ordinary discussion. Macro spamming and such feels like vigilante gas chambering, and even if the situation has reached a point where something like that is warranted I would rather see the moderation team step in and resolve the situation directly (which does not necessarily mean "with probations") rather than simply unleashing the BBG.

Where have I defended him? I dont think its acceptable to call anyone a human being and tell them to drink bleach on cam. Even if it is Pandaclue. Its not like there are tons of actual funny things you could post about him instead.

Generally yes.

It's more your disdain of one-liners. Plus your atrocious comedic timing on attempting a "taste of your own medicine" approach or whatever it is you're trying here. At least I have a decent idea of why people think that is funny sometimes.

What I'm saying is, you need another gimmick here because it just isn't working out for you.

I don't even know what this pandaclub or gay rumsfelds or whatever is about.

I agree. That is utterly ridiculous. I probably should have done a better job of quoting Widestancer from the Wildstar thread. Here it is properly formatted:

*say something lovely about Wildstar* gently caress YEAH

*say something lovely about one of the Devs behind it* Madam please do not call her such things for I must defend the e-honor of this woman and if you call me out on white knighting I'm going to call you a babby

EDIT: I swear I'm not doing this on purpose

Derails kinda prevent a conversation from taking place, unless people just ignore the derail.

During one of the huge meltdowns in archeage, some guy just asked questions about the game and was responded to. The solution was so easy, just post about something different.

If the people in the thread don't want to post about something more on topic, then a derail happens. It is honestly up to the posters. So when people have the attitude of "I won't post there because_____" they are part of the problem they dislike with more control over the solution than they want to admit.

The image spam people complain about isn't that big of a deal no matter how much they claim it is. They will exaggerate and say it is all over the place when if you go look at it, it isn't. It didn't last long and only showed up when someone is being really dumb.

No blame is put onto those dumb people because they dislike image macros that much.

I have had quite a few people tell me that they dislike how the archeage thread went. But I've had an almost equal in size group of people tell me that they thought the thread improved. We got quite a few groups and cultures on SA and some love to see drama or someone arguing the age of consent mocked with image macros.

This is possible, hopefully when the bugs are worked out of the native mobile site more people will use that instead. You can turn it on now from your user control panel, but it doesn't detect when you're on a mobile browser like it should.

Showing everyone that Widestancer says mean things sometimes is not showing anyone anything new but watching you keep quoting my posts like some sort of bizarre own while you continue to be mad about a dead thread about a dead game with a dev who didn't even care about what was said is pretty funny so you should probably keep doing that.
