Can somebody explain when this whole thing became about the stupid loving krusty meme (which I hold dear to my heart, but alas), because I thought it was about QCS concern trolls posting GBS callout threads and not getting the rules applied to them the same as the idiotic GBS posters (including myself, shamefully) who got suckered in and got hit with waves of ultra-probes and whatnot. Most of us were sincerely under the impression that QCS was for A) Technical bugs B) Making fun of people who think it's for real complaints (like that anti-semetic avatar guy from last week) But I guess it's actually for complaints? whoflungpoop posted:I think the MODS are giant BABIES who go POOP POOP in their DIAPERS This but replace mods with GBS fantasy football commissioners

How come only the GBS posters got punished, though, when the problem is bigger than that?

Removing and reinstating gbs did not bring about the posting renaissance that was supposed to occur, does anyone really believe that indefinitely probating or banning the most active posters that are left will usher in a new a golden age of good posting and not just drive gbs further into irrelevance?

I welcome the return of grammar and capitalization. I think this merits a return to forumsid 1 The new golden age begins now.

This is a decent point imo, all the people calling for the blood of GBS posters in every QCS thread never actually post here. Be the change you want to see in the forums

zen death robot posted:Lowtax hated GBS 2.0 and still is pissed it happened: He and the admin/mod team always say this and then don't do much about it except a few rage bans. I mean this sincerely and not as mod sass: if you do little besides whine and throw bans about current culture, you're not going to foster anything other than a culture of rebellion against whiny, arbitrary moderation. A forum where everyone makes effort and uses correct grammar and no smileys or LOLs requires a majority willing to use the report button to uphold that culture. That doesn't exist in GBS, and slinging bans and permaprobes isn't going to create it.

The forums legitimately improve when he's actively posting, you get some sycophants posting at him trying to win forums favor or whatever, but that's not a very big deal and when he's gone off to Twitter the whole gbs culture starts to get a little carried away conflating their daddy issues with the absentee forums dad

I think that if you believe in there being some kind of concern troll conspiracy that is tricking the mods and admins into destroying GBS or whatever, then you're a moron, but QCS could definitely use a bit stricter moderation imo, and I can understand why some people feel like their concerns aren't being listened to. The forums are better than they ever were over-all imo, but if you want effort posting, a more genuine atmosphere, and stuff like goon projects, then you can still find that spread across the 60 subs that SA has now. Like PYF, Ask/Tell and e/n has a bunch of that content. I don't know what the possible changes to GBS are meant to do, but I'd imagine it would be hard to roll back GBS to some former version, when a lot of content has moved to the subs.

Maybe QCS should have it so if you post in there you get an automatic 6-hour probie.

zen death robot posted:Also nice ice rear end Please don't go crazy we need you safe and sane Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:Saying I want it to be generally accessible isn't the same as saying I want 2013 GBS back. Indeed, that place wasn't so hot either, gotta give credit to ozma and abe and co for recognizing that something was wrong even if they didn't know how to fix it. I think GBS can be funny and appealing to newcomers without being about how "internet fat guy #37 said something racist!!". Hell I try to gas threads like that now because they're extremely boring to me, though they also seem to be resilient and attract a lot of posts. I don't want to gas something if it's only me that doesn't like it and ended up letting the recent one live. Imagine, if you will, that your sense of humor never outgrew rick rolling. You still think, in 2017, that rick rolling is loving hilarious. And not as a surprise 'lol remember this haha' thing - you want to rick roll everyone, all of the time. Sweat drips down your armpits every time you click a hyperlink, desperate for Rick Astley to show up.

I'm just glad GBS is a relatively free space topic wise, moving discussions into micro-specialized forums with their no-joking attitudes and 6 active posters was always a bad idea

Also the forums were always full of memes, we just used to call them image macros and catchphrases. Img timeline is in this very thread, i think i used to have the "I'm a huge jackass i post img-timeline" avatar back when the taxman got annoyed with that one

This might be groundbreaking, but I suspect that there is a connection between posting the same thing over and over again and autism.

I don't even think people care that much about QCS or anything other than some people ate 100k hour bans for basically nothing, where 100k hour bans should be reserved for the worst offenses. People are looking at the posts that resulted in these permaprobes and it just seems unfair. Misanthrope was clearly upset and sticking up for his friends, and wasn't being a jerk or doing anything that should have warrented the 100k hour probation. It just feels like ZDR is waving his dick around to show he can. Its just lovely to see your friends be treated unfairly, and people are unhappy about it.
