It would help if well-known and well-loved women from a given thread were simply made IKs pre-emptively before they ever get ganged up on by the forum mafia.

Imagine if snoo, snake and bake, and facetoucher cat had been IKs/mods all along, to help the place chill out instead of what happened

remember when you saw people posting about neopets in the saga thread and them made a nazi hitlist of them all? i do!

Does (apparently) objectionable trump thread material really get posted frequently in other threads? I mean besides the times when someone who doesn't like it happening in the trump thread brings it up to argue something. I don't read a whole ton of threads most of the time so this is a real question.

In my experience it's less actual "thread material" that gets exported than it is dumb poo poo posters looking to spam some other thread into oblivion

yeah, we do. the cspam threads are still fun because they're with a different community and, crucially, they're about a big topic all in one thread instead of a bunch of specialized threads. kinda hard to go from talking disco elysium to mass effect to donkey kong anywhere in games. but i would guess that most cspam gaming thread posters read threads in games, etc. as well.

Hyper specific threads are kinda intimidating to get into. Sometimes I just wanna talk about games as a general topic, so its nice to have a general games thread.

But its not like threads are a limited resource. Theres no reason *not* to have a bunch of threads so long as people enjoy posting in them.

i realize this may be a bit but i assure you the way to make women feel more welcome is not to put random ones on pedestals because men have decided they like them.

Here you go assuming their gender is the only possible reason to want to make them IKs, but not the fact that they are all good chill posters who bring interesting research and stories to the COVID thread that people enjoy. Calling them "random women" and categorizing their well-regarded thread histories in terms of what you assume men think is a poo poo attitude.

If their gender makes them a target due to forums cliques and moderation, then the obvious question is why weren't they the ones in power. They had already hit all the other qualifications such as being well liked. Also having a history of reacting well to thread conflicts which IMO is the only qualification for modship that matters besides trust.

I get it, even AI has its chat thread for talking about whatever with your car buddies. I just sometimes feel that there is resistance to wanting to go post in some of the hobby forums because of whatever preconceived notions someone has about whoever posts there. But I'll go back to reading because there are some interesting posts being made. And dreaming about an ev swapped volga on bags because god drat. :circlefap:
