They train young men to drop fire on people. But their commanders won't allow them to write 'fuck' on their airplanes because it is obscene.

cspam is up to its eyeballs with liberals that think they're leftists and something must be done about this. the last time i pointed this out i was mercilessly helldumped for being really strong and good at swordfighting. something should be done about that too.

there's a lot of problems in this subforum and a lot of posters need to be banned

it's the dumbest possible thing to moderate on and there's infinite ways to circumvent the spirit of the rule while sticking to the letter. "buncha microencephalatics itt smdh" etc etc. people will want to call eachother dumb no matter what. banning one word to do it with does nothing to protect a marginalized group and only serves as another way for mods to wield power as they pursue personal grudges and back up their posting pals when their feelings are hurt. if it was actually a big deal mods wouldn't wait a week to find a mention of the forbidden word and then probe

SUCK LASER, COPPERS


Lux Animus posted:

No offense to is intended to Crusty Nutsack when I say that she doesn't need to be a mod any more.

She was made IK of the CoolZone thread because at the time of the BLM protests last year she was incredibly online and very present in that thread, regularly updating her protest livestream spreadsheet. If people started posting bloodlust in the thread, she was there and saw it happening live and as IK she slapped it down before people got too nasty about what they wanted to do to cops and chuds.

A while later, Crusty was at some point the only Mod in CSPAM, and I get the feeling that this change made her feel compelled to run a tight ship. I recall her being very responsive to the time I requested that people use the word 'oval office' only in Aussie threads (a trend I'd noticed happening in the Leper's Colony), but as the only CSPAM mod this brand of policing made her the sole arbiter of the forum's language, which grated on a lot of posters' nerves for better or for worse.

I'm not requesting here that Crusty Nutsack step down, rather I only ask that she consider whether the role of mod is something that she has the time and energy for any more. She seems a lot more busy IRL than she was last year during the BLM protests, and so maybe the influx of new mods and IKs from this feedback thread means that she can actually take a step back from being beholden to a comedy politics forum.

you got the history part right, but it was the opposite when I became the only cspam mod. I checked the gently caress out because I was angry that the admins demodded the only other two mods, leaving me to run it alone. I didn't sign up for that; I don't want to be the only arbiter of rules or punishments or anything else. just in sheer size it's impossible for one person to run effectively as a volunteer and also have a life. at the time that happened, my personal life was better than it had been in a long time, so I just told the admins I was mostly checked out because I had better things to do. I kept in touch with the iks (because they rock and deserve mod support), but pretty much stopped doing reports completely at that time lol so I can understand how any actions I took during that period were seen as hostile or parachuting in or something. I only dealt with things that were brought to my attention by users or admins, really.

now that there's more new mods I'm paying more attention and more engaged again, but thunderbeast, drey and vyelkin are the ones still doing the grunt work while I just try and help them navigate the mod forum bs, provide feedback, offer history about poo poo they might not remember or know from the mod side, etc. I am definitely aware that I can step down at any time, but I do care about cspam and hope that I can offer the new mods something useful.
