It's also deeply funny that someone who considers themselves a cspam poster will immediately start going "but what they're doing is against the rules! why won't the mods do something!"

I don't have the slightest desire to delineate this beyond the basic, but it warrants some effort, and I earnestly find it frustrating, if also really kind of darkly funny.

There's a thread of people who mostly just post about goon drama endlessly, hyping themselves and their lurkers up into taking action, sanctioned and not, in the exact same way helldump and ED used to, against their subjects of discussion. It's specifically permissible in this case, because tradition (???), and they incidentally, accidentally found a justification that works for an admin. Sometimes that happens, but it doesn't even seem to matter.

but like, the behavior itself is specifically not allowed??? like jeffrey seriously if CSPAM made a thread that functions the same way the PYF drama thread does, every active participant would be banned or long-probed and the thread gassed faster than that PYF thread can huff its own self righteous farts into actionable histrionics.

Whatever man, do what you have to about plinkey. I feel like you should acknowledge this was a bunch of isolate goons kicking poo poo up in a subforum they largely don't post in, and do something about it, though.

it�s worth noting that posting about current drama after 2021 is discouraged and discussion of cspam is also specifically proscribed, so you can be punished for posting there if you piss off the wrong person

My favorite forums drama was when SPR tried to start one last fight in the Covid thread about how �not everyone can get masks like you freaks. They aren�t available here!� Then a bunch of people earnest were trying to help source things and she ran away because it was never actually about being able to get masks or not vs starting poo poo.

A bunch of people were really helpful and I got some good masks with their assistance? I still got covid later on but I'd had all my vaccines by then

maybe you have an idea about what community means that doesn't actually map onto anything real, much less what that poster thinks, and you are largely posting to justify your own poo poo behavior??? I mean I never was aware of you until you came riding in to justify all of this so to be fair it's largely been adversarial interaction but hey

Well, for what it's worth, I am doing this to address my own concerns more than anyone else's. I run this site and I don't want to leave a gap whereby its members can be taken advantage of, even if I do not believe that they are. The steps I'm asking for are not serious structural changes and I'm not asking the fund to halt operations or do anything disruptive. They are, in fact, extremely basic and likely to make this easier, and not more difficult to run.

I certainly don't appreciate the fan fiction people have written about Plinkey over the last week. It is obnoxious that people are trying to get epic burns on the people who support this charity and I'm sorry my post inspired more of that, but core issue there is real and I want to see it corrected.

what salary are you offering plinkey to do all the extra work you seem to think he owes you?

Yeah I was intensely frustrated with the covid response locally and how obtuse everything was, there are people posting there who were genuinely helpful, among the shrieking paranoid astronaut types

You are one of the most deranged and delusional people currently posting on these forums so perhaps it is you instead who should gently caress off.

Okay, everyone who I 6ered consider yourselves on notice in this thread. It's pretty clear none of you have any interest in anything but starting poo poo in here and are just piggybacking on the calls for accountability. You've got a wholeass thread where you can discuss drama to your heart's content, post about the goonfund in there, not here.

hello, i am exceedingly pissed off about something that i am not involved with in the least, and that in even the absolute worst case still helps people. mainly what i'm angry about is that someone from a forum that i hate is doing something good

i'd like to screech about this for a while, and maybe poo poo and piss myself while i'm throwing my tantrum. is this the right thread for that

I think this is mildly funny because you ignored the advice of the "paranoid astronaut types" and then got COVID. I wonder how many of the people who told you to wear a better mask have gotten COVID since then.

most people have jobs that don't let them be paranoid astronauts 24/7 and all we can do is limit exposure to covid, not eliminate it
