Why would i report a post that breaks no rules?

If you think a post is bad, and you can in any way articulate why (or if it seems obvious to you, needing no explanation), please report the post.

If you think people keep making bad posts of some kind that do not break a rule, post here and suggest a rule that solves the problem, or make a new thread with an OP rule not to do the thing you dislike. Or, and I know this might seem like a totally weird thing to do on a discussion forum, but perhaps discuss your issues with fellow posters in a clearly communicated way, perhaps letting them know that something is bothering you, and figure out a way to resolve it? Worth a shot.

Whatever thread you're planning on making in the proposed imp zone? Again, :justpost: it.

But you went off and made a QCS thread about splitting the forum without talking to almost anyone here, without bringing your issues up to anyone in any way and really, without being able to point to any examples of the posting that bothers you, except for 1 isolated thread.

You might turn out to be right about your original point but the manner you went about asking for it is harming your case.

surely the way to a more relaxed atmosphere is multiple threads with different rule sets everyone has to keep track of

edit: PHIZ has 7 people in it right now. I guarantee you more than 7 people will use a new forum.

what the hell is this scolding nonsense lol. that's exactly what QCS is for, if it happens it happens, but i promise that making a QCS thread to bring it to the peoples attention that can actually do it is not 'harming' the case.

this is some weak poo poo, dude. he isn’t the first person to get tired of the sad, world weary goons trying to make everyone in the wrestling forum as miserable as they are, he isn’t the only one with the same opinion itt, and you know well and good that if we tell the resident eeyores to stfu or make fun of them we’re more likely to be punished and their behavior will continue

i posted in support of the idea in QCS because i like new ideas and experimenting with the forums. it's very easy not to engage with the stuff i don't want to engage in, but it obviously does wear down on someone. the only part of the thread i was upset about was GBS dipshits that haven't ever looked in here talking poo poo about karmicknight cause he's done a really good job and should be pat on the back and perhaps kissed on the cheek.

I'm not the one you have to convince, this is just how it looks to me.

It could be OP (or others) actually did the things I posted at some point and none of it worked out, but nobody linked examples of that so how would I know. That's what I mean by hurting the case, just seems like it could easily have been stronger, in the case that OP is right isn't that kind of a shame?

I'm also just saying in general you should report bad posts when you see bad posts, everyone has that button now.

I don't usually know which users or threads are being talked about when this stuff comes up because not that many examples are usually cited directly, but I thought one of the core issues was that no rules were actually being broken so reporting posts isn't really worth it? Like, people just want to post about Chris Jericho without being told that Chris Jericho donated to Trump or whatever every time, right? It seems reasonable to me. It's exhausting having to defend the poo poo you like and there's also a plague on so everyone Wang Chung tonight.

Yea i mean for me it's not even that, although i did give that example in my post. it's just like...yes we all know there are bad people in this business, as there are in every other business, because there are bad people that populate the world. if there is another forum, i'll post in both, because it's not like the 'bad' or 'unfun' parts of wrestling don't deserve to be talked about. that's why there's nothing inherently wrong with what people post about lol. why would i want to report someone for being uncomfortable that a guy who liked racist tweets is being cheered or whatever, that'd be really weird, you know what i mean? i just engage with that poo poo enough in my daily offline life that if given the choice, i'd prefer the alternative. i also know that's not a consensus opinion but thankfully i don't speak for anyone but me

I thought the idea of a relaxed jokey PSP seemed cool but the way the thread almost instantly devolved into singling out posting enemies, the terrors of woke-scolds, and ranting about CSPAM (for some reason) left a really bad taste in my mouth :/

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

I think there's very mixed messages being sent. Because on one hand there's certainly times when posters can go too far or might be acting in bad faith. Or that a case has been made and you're just hammering it home. But there's also plenty of people who have perfectly valid feelings on racism or abuse or other serious issues, even if others might not feel as strongly or might be able to compartmentalize it better. And they should feel comfortable to voice that. And complaining that you can't just make fun of them or tell them to stfu is something else entirely.

no one is talking about silencing honest conversation, but posters earnestly throwing trump supporters into the speakingout thread and comparing a rapping heel to trump are hardly honest to begin with.

If I'm not mistaken there was a CSPAM Wrestling thread and I remember it being miserable to read, and imp zone style topics/poster are similarly miserable for me to read. I don't know if we need a whole Imp Zone to sunder PSP in half, I've just been using the ignore function to get the kind of experience that I want out of PSP.

and some of the people who also enjoy serious discussion, perhaps more than me, are good people i don't want to ignore even if I mumble "oh my god seriously" around the pen hanging out of my mouth occasionally

i just want a wrestleyob with gary strydom in a top hat as the background. where butt the shitman fart jokes rain from the sky

edit: i am aware that there would be people who posted in one or the other but i predict it is less than some people think. for me it's just an extra tab open.

also sa has always had general forum "rules" of "is this post low content by either offering nothing to the conversation, being off topic, or just not funny because you can report it and get probated for it"
