SOME REALLY TEDIOUS DUMB SHIT THAT SUCKS ASS TO READ ->>

No I just like to read funny forum stories. But even if I didn't, it's incredibly conceited to think the wants of the mod team superceed the interests of the site's users

yeah i would prefer not to have read 15 loving waves of current drama because some mod is posting inappropriate cartoon porn again

in my ideal world this would happen zero times and I would never have to see another mod/forum meltdown over cartoons

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.

There have been a silly amount of posts in a few hours, so I'm not caught up enough to see if anyone else mentioned anything but the thread seemed fine about respecting the 1 year rule outside of this outburst? Just give people a 6 hour probation if they are deliberately (not jokingly) pushing the limit. The only thing that felt a bit much lately was letting politics forum antagonism leak in, but maybe that's inevitable.

I'll flip it around, why is having a place that intensifies and often creates drama good for the forums overall?

this thread didn't exist for quite a while and it had zero impact on the amount of qcs meltdowns that were caused by people acting like loving morons and then doubling down on bad decisions and circling the wagons

this was honestly more my take from trying to post about the dog thing, that the problem isn't the date it's that any subject currently still a hot topic in the political forums will provoke terrible sagas posting. i thought the example was as apolitical as it possibly could be but my honest reaction is nope politics forum sagas almost always don't work in this thread, something i always suspected but now feel very confident on. even if they're interesting or relevant sagas a ton of people take it as a green light to either very performatively agree or disagree to the underlying politics in a way encourages terrible terrible posting.

My computer is so old and lovely at this point that the only advantage it really has over a steam deck is full KBM and a 1920x1080 monitor. Lol. But it's too pricey to justify me buying rn

Fine but that post still is bad. The mod forum (the serious parts) sucks rear end there is no reason to fault anyone for not wanting to do the mod stuff. No matter the reason. Namaste

That is what I was saying yes. You do not strike me as having thin skin and if you quit over that post, I would have been legit surprised.
