bracketed word + topical joke is a good format, that’s basically what I do with the FFXIV discord channel names

Zurtilik posted:I just find it concerning the amount of ablest and homophobic terms used to get mad about chat threads. Someone literally said the chat threads were "gay" at some point in this mess. Lots of weirdly dehumanizing poo poo too. That was also me, I called it gay, which I'm allowed to do, because I think that's a funny thing to do

He deserves at least a thread named after him for his service. If your asking for admin permission, sure. If you think it will add to cspam and it's something people want?

Schnorkles posted:i have no idea why this is presented as a "bad thing." It is more just unwieldy and also every thread with a recognizable community absolutely needs an active IK at all times. Oh Snapple! posted:It seems like a simple, on paper, way to handle this would be for the mods to largely just run the queue on largely basic, general forums rules and to consult thread IKs when something kinda eh comes up in a thread they largely have nothing to do with. The problem is when a mod needs to come into a thread he doesn't frequent and can't really "read" the room. One solution would simply just have different mods with at least a little bit of a diverse background that can respond to at least some of the threads they know and then have IKs under them that can fill in the gaps. Some of it is just a recognition that the different threads can't be administered in a general manner. I guess you would have to have at least one "megathread mod" (it seems like the area threads/climate change/doomsday econ/the Marxism thread and maybe the Succ thread have a fair amount of cross over (I am sure someone will contest this)) , a "lifestyle" mod, and a "Trump" mod. (This is just theoretical not an actual suggestion of what to do.) Ardennes has issued a correction as of 00:41 on Jun 29, 2021 |

Just to clarify, by "read the room" I mean "if the thread reacts poorly, find out why". I absolutely understand that some things can require immediate action and the moderator might be the only person around to deal with something.

id say "just have agreed upon, boring rules and enforce them with utter disdain" so people can fight over rules instead of personalities and maybe get some consistency, but if the people of cspam wanna have the IKocracy soviet council then hell, go big people seem to prefer having less formality and that'd be one way to stop things feeling regimented

the current mods are complicit in the ald/squizzle bullshit, and were similarly complicit in flavius's terrible modding of the marxism and china/eurasia threads demod the current mods, find chill new mods more than 1 page worth of posts in the trmup thread should be instant disqualification for modship (and grounds for death) more than 1 gangtag should be instant disqualification for modship (and grounds for death) most of the iks atm are fine and if more iks are needed then i guess given threads can choose their own let the trmup losers have their dumb rear end thread for their lovely catch phrases but they should be probed if they transport that garbage into other threads

I think we should split the Glen Greenwald thread into a "Glenn" thread (for all Glenns) and a "Greenwald" thread (for all Greenwalds). Glenn Greenwald discussion now goes to TV IV

the unsourced quote thing largely started because discord weirdoes start flooding reports(or a certain mod starts tantruming) if we quote directly, which inevitably leads to an angry mod showing up and doing something dumb, which starts drama, and it becomes a total shitshow nobody really seems willing to deal with that whole situation though so unsourced quotes are the compromise and it works decently well
