i realize this must be earth shattering information but attention mods and admins: you do not have to moderate a forum whose userbase you hate, and especially not for free

yeah, I mean i wasn't trolling with my suggestion of just shutting down this thread temporarily or permanently if it's really a huge source of stress for people still. it's good that the mods here went to bat to keep it around despite a lot of pressure, but if there's stuff going on behind the scenes that makes it still hugely stressful for people despite the reboot and new rules, keeping everyone happy and healthy is more important.

I honestly really like moderating this thread. It has tough moments (this morning was one of those), but usually it's a joy, which is why I don't use my buttons all that much. I learn a lot from it and get some good laughs out of people's posting.

Normally not, but this thread has a long and storied history of being one of the shittiest in C-SPAM so if those two are going to continue to come in here and poo poo it up, Majorian has a green light. I don't particularly like that it has come to this, but keep Glenn and Tucker poo poo in their containment zones, which is why those threads have existed for so long.

There has been zero drama in this thread that I'm aware of ever since the thing from a few months back and the banning of forum SYQs. If anything, it's kind of remarkable how well behaved it's been; the only real problem was always the inter-thread drama, which has been nonexistent for a long time now. I don't know if people in the moderator forum or other subforums are complaining, but if they are that's their problem.

I feel like people are misinterpreting cbo's posts as some sort of veiled support for Tucker Carlson, instead of "how pathetic is it that Tucker Carlson is the only person in mainstream US media who is even mentioning this stuff" + "people who freak out about Tucker Carlson/Fox News but don't care much about other US media are dumb as hell and likely unwittingly being manipulated by liberal media narratives." While they're absolutely trolling (and short probes are the expected consequence of that), it's the sort of trolling that doesn't cause derails unless other people are dumb in response to it.

Btw thanks Majorian for undoing the thread ban. The probe isn't a big deal, but thread bans only make sense in a situation where the majority of a thread wants someone gone (and even then it's usually a bad idea).

eh, i think it's good that majorian doesn't personally hate the thread since he mods it.

az hating the thread is not new. he was openly posting in the Glenn zone about how much he hated this thread even before the qcs kerfuffle. It's really not surprising, posting about war (even with no gore, just light humor and news updates) is not for everyone, and the longer the war drags on the more like abyss gazing it becomes.

you can't begrudge anyone for hating this thread. war sucks. hopefully that's different from hating the people who post in the thread, which i assume it is lol

Hate reading something is still weird, especially when you pop in to say how much you hate it out of nowhere.

Which is why I'm ignoring the hundreds of posts about this drama.

imagine being bullied by gbs posters and mods into a weird overreaction. Like what the gently caress was Kit whatever going to do? I did hear rumours that people were threatening to go to the German state and get SA banned for 'genocide denial' so lol if that's even a tiny bit true

I don't even know how that works now that Germany officially supports nazi groups displaying nazi symbology

half the drama about this thread has nothing to do with the war and more to do with permanent personal grudges that've developed over the years on this site because of pro vs anti american political opinions

i dont think az hates cspam any more than certain parts of cspam hate other parts of cspam, but im sure that having everyone pissed at him almost from day 1 of his admin reign when the sexpig perma hit didn't help matters
