my favorite Radium® artifact is the "Delete Post" button

admins have it, and have always had it

they are not allowed to use it because it breaks things horribly

it cannot be removed without breaking things horribly

what I'm saying here is that if you remember when GBS 2.0 happened then this whole trash fire is in no way surprising

Remind me, was GBS 2.0 when it was running on FYAD rules or when they shut GBS down totally and rebooted it?

Jerry Cotton is spot on - FinnPol thread has some nazi issues on occasion and it’s literally all I know of that thread. ScandiPol has enough to shout them out if they leak but holy moly multilingual IKs seems like a no brainer.

There are no Finnish-speakers sober enough. (Unless, and I might be way off base here, Ras Het reads Finnish?)

I guess it could apply to both, but I mostly meant when it was made into a fyad-lite that ended up being way way worse than fyad ever was, at least for a while. I think it happened on halloween night? It was REALLY bad.

I guess after the shutdown it would be 3.0? Or possibly Nu-GBS.

OK, yeah I remember that. It got really bad really fast. I think I stopped posting in there all together until it got cleared up. When YCS was looking like the saner place to post, you got some issues.

GBS 2.0 was a big cultural shift for the forums, tbh I think it eclipses any other forums drama I've seen.

When was it that they said "hey no generic news item threads in GBS!" and when was it that they rescinded that because... it seems like they're back?

i left the forums for a few years and came back to a better place and i think that the waves of departing or autobanning users will hopefully find the same thing happens if they choose to make their way back in a couple of years

If I recall correctly it's even funnier than that. It was found out because the dude was hosting the art on his wife's deviantart account, and she was the one doing the incredibly detailed furry erotica. Like, why the hell would you do that?

Yeah except the original guy, Bumlord, wasn't the furry erotica guy. It was a guy who just decided he'd do the thread that year.- (At least I think that's how it went. You need to ask gbs-fm.)
