And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Real question here, what are you gonna do about it then? Because the idea that there's a special clubhouse where it's OK to call people who like a nice and innocuous promotion a bunch of sex perverts and we're not even allowed to make fun of them for doing it is kinda hosed and will very clearly lead to a lot more bad vibes than the alternative in the long run.

Go into the thread and call them a loving idiot.

Or ignore it because who gives a gently caress what EMF thinks.

Every time someone shortens Eat My Fuc to EMF it makes me think of the band that did "Unbelievable" and I like the idea of the tone of their posts varying based which band member is logged on at the moment.

Much like when someone posts bad in PSP you can just mock the bad posts in the thread they were posted in.

It's all of this.

You can also be like me, and not read the forum that has bad vibes.

The point of this thread is to make fun of people, and having a shield of distance where they cannot just log in and argue with you is the entire point of the rule against mocking goons. Twitter idiots, facebook fools, and trash website writers all have to find this thread first.

If you yourself don't even want to look at the place, then surely you have to realize how unreasonable it sounds that your solution is "well just go engage with the place that I myself don't want anything to do with".

Like, I get if posting poo poo from these forums overall is verboten and that's OK, but in that case the people with authority have to make sure that some modicum of decency is maintained even in the wild west forums zones. Because it's still publicly viewable and people will be looking and I've been on SA long enough to see that if there either is no outside pressure valve or some sort of moderation the whole thing will blow up eventually and the fallout will end up loving both subforums up.

It's obviously harder to to mock the bad posts in the club house sub forum when it's a club house that exists without moderation for the sole purpose of letting people confidently post that kind of poo poo because they're cowards who can't post it in the real forum

harder in the sense that it'll be drowned out by the clique protecting their obnoxious friend by calling any outside poster a killjoy

ngl this is the most cowardly thing anyone has posted in a while

Right? It's completely absurd to me and is no different than "anyone who watches even a moment of WWE-produced content is a cop" or "the UK wrestling scene is 100% creepshows" in terms of how personally offended you should be from it.

This could be the most one-sided fight since 1973 when Ali faced an eighty-foot tall mechanical Joe Frazier. My memory isn't what it used to be, but I think the entire Earth was destroyed.

The thing is there's a real thin line between that and just wanting to be an rear end in a top hat without having to face consequences. And the name doesn't exactly make it seem like you're meant to take happy fun good times from it.

EDIT:Just to be clear, this is nothing to do with EMF's post specifically. I just think the other board is a very Bad and Dumb Idea. Like, why were people mad about the fuckwit the other day (before the outright transphobia, obviously) if there's an entire board that people here are chill with just so you can post stuff like that?

I've never once seen anything racist or transphobic or even targeting any specific poster in there. It's basically just a place where hornyposting is allowed.

because no one in epa posts like that dipshit?

sexmetalbarbie posted like a loving rear end in a top hat so they got treated like a loving rear end in a top hat. epa has people making dumb loving jokes and being absurd for the sake of being absurd

like the second day the forum was open some dipshit made a thread called "lets make fun of charlottes weird face" and they were immediately mocked and the thread was gassed. mean spirited poo poo just to be mean doesn't fly.
