Quantum of Phallus posted:so when we getting some new mods huh I think the timeline is something like the following: (1) I will post my mostly-concluding thoughts tonight but leave the thread open for a couple days in case anybody who hasn't been around has anything to say (2) Consult with other people on possible mods (3) Maybe I go play a chess tournament somewhere, that could add a couple days to the process (4) We start asking people to be mod. Sometimes this takes awhile. One time we made it through our entire 'to ask' list without someone saying yes.

I command and demand the power to assign gang tags, then I will commence the PSP Draft, and posters will be assigned to either the Serious Business or poo poo Poster brands. This brand split will last for at least 6 months, potentially longer depending on how successful it is

History Comes Inside! posted:Referees can only probe posts they actually read I actually really like both of these without irony if there was a way to make the second one work without completely removing the report button I've never needed the use of the report button but I don't want people thinking there wouldn't be a way to immediately point out posts with hate speech or illegal poo poo etc banger of an idea that would fit the theme of the subforum perfectly though on both

Okay, here's roughly how I see things right now: (1) The AEW wrestling threads are tremendously popular right now, especially in the immediate 24 hours after Dynamite. There were ~40 pages this week, thanks to Mox-Punk and the backstage news. This is good, but it's also a lot of posting to keep an eye on. (2) There's a simmering bad vibes/cliquishness problem that isn't particularly severe, but it's present enough for most people to notice. (3) The main change is going to be to try add another person with buttons (mod or IK, though I prefer a mod) who is reliably online when AEW is on and the day after. They won't necessarily be AEW-dedicated, but that's obviously the top priority since that's where all the posting is. (4) It sounds like most people are putting in a self-conscious effort of being less aggro or less cliquey. That's good. One thing I noted, though, is that people would occasionally say that there were righteous exceptions, and being more aggressive was good. An issue with this is that people often think their own aggression (or dunking or mockery or whatever) is the righteous exception, and never anyone else's. I guess that's just something to keep in mind when posting, and deciding that you yourself is in the right. A bunch of posters specifically mentioned that one of the reasons they wanted a new mod was to nudge them when they were going too far. That's fine, though I think that everyone is at an age where they should be expected to act responsibly themselves. (5) Relatedly, a new mod will also have to be treated with patience, both as they figure out the best way to act by trial and error and also as posters get told to simmer down more than they're used to. Again, this is the sort of thing where people's best judgement should be enough. So yeah. Wrestling is in a good spot now so posts are way up. We'll work to bring in a new mod. Be excellent to each other and accepting of difference.

I rarely see any modding in the wrestling threads and I think that's great. Hopefully we can continue to be left alone in our corner of the internet.

MMA, unlike wrestling, is perfect in every way and requires no changes. Praise be to Dana White.

Malcolm Excellent posted:These are good, but what about my draft idea? Ok yes but there will also be a quarterly wildcard where posters get the option of doing a one-off switch to the alternate brand. Also there will be a thread where posters from each brand will go head-to-head once a year. This will be posted five times a year.

a little bit too many jokes is coming around. this is a friendly notice. you'd traditionally use the word warning there rather than notice. but these days giving a warning makes people assume you're talking about you're going to whoop their rear end or something. that's not what it is. it's like hey... you're close to swimming out too far, on your own. it has nothing to do with anything i'm going to do. i'm not going to do it. you are

I’ll catch up with the whole thread in a minute but I think it would be useful if we all reminded each other that the fuckin’ ignore function exists rather than watching the same people get in the same old useless slap fight bullshit. it’s improved my PSP experience loads since I’m not seeing exhausting masturbatory posts from the same few goons. alternate recc/feedback: ban everyone who isn’t Cav from the wrestling threads. gimme that perfect stream of consciousness beauty from the (I mean this unironically) best drat poster here.
