The calling stuff Aids discussion happened right as the monkeypox thing was being blamed on gay people and that was used as an excuse to not bother trying to stop it, so there was certainly a knee-jerk aspect to it, myself included. Since then it's kinda circled back to who gives a poo poo Also: Daikatana Ritsu posted:I personally think it's important to always have a thread around to talk poo poo about KM and Lowtax

I think saying the 1year rule wasn't being followed is disingenuous. Roth and Rhino came down on KirbyKhan when he posted about newer events. And I don't think that's the only case of them enforcing that rule. These mod forum leaks might just be clouding the picture because of emotions surrounding it.

HolePisser1982 posted:the sagas thread is extremely good. but mods are obsessed with threads "acting up" and "needing a time out" etc, lol. just gotta suck it up And no one agrees on what is a bad thread or what is a bad post. I think having a mod forum private to hash that out is a good thing because it's whatever about posting cringey, but it's good to have an outlet to discuss things without it becoming a big deal. But honestly the mod forum is a microcosm of the forums as a whole, with some people taking poo poo way too seriously and personal, some folks trying to act cool and above it all and others just rubbernecking and loling.

Azathoth posted:My point was, and still is, that having a thread solely devoted to current drama is bad for the forums overall and that is what this thread is, the weakass 1 year rule being routinely ignored when good drama happens, which was only put in place as a precondition of having the thread again after it got gassed for the nth time. If you don't like this thread, then gas it again. People will bitch, and I get it's wearying to see people bitch, but if they bitch too much, you can take comfort in the fact they've got emotionally invested in something that doesn't fuckin matter. People should have hobbies, and jobs, and social lives that make a single forum thread irrelevant by comparison. And if they don't, that's no-one's problem but theirs.

Larry Parrish posted:but is that what's happening here? i don't think so. personally im not on some crusade it's just funny that the mod forum isn't public and pretty much the only real reason is because some of the idiot grey forum mods/admins like to post while doing the evangelion pose while discussing whether it's a hate crime to say aids. and that's funny to lol at. idk if i missed some other poo poo before the mod forum posts but i think mods posting cringe is not really a big deal which is why it would be dumb for this to blow up into an actual thing that pisses people off

These mods and admins that think a drama free forum is somwthing achievable, or even desirable, should go somewhere more inline with their sensibilities, like a forum about pet rocks or a message board about knitting hats for pet rocks (pastel colors ONLY)

For the record, I'm not going to gas the thread. I wrote that in a fit of pique and at no point would I have actually done that. All it would have meant is a half dozen QCS threads from everyone freaking out and causing more drama, thus defeating the purpose.

I don't know if it's a self-fulfilling prophecy or the Streisand Effect or what, but if you don't want goons talking about recent drama then maybe, you know, don't poop your posting pants and smear it all over the walls at the slightest imagined provocation?

Larry Parrish posted:'stir the pot'...? also re: the posts I was sent about me, or at least the first one... can you seriously tell me why the mods had some kind of weird debate about what it meant when I call things aids instead of just asking me lol. i would have told you, I know you guys are all 45 years old and don't know what I'm saying half the time anyway, it's obvious I don't think you should use AIDS an an adjective because it's not funny. Simple as that.
