Sally posted:i don't know why spr's buttons were yanked. if it was because she used IK powers outside of her assigned thread, then that's mistaken reasoning because spr was a full PYF IK. i suspect it is because everyone in the mod forum is arguing amongst one another right now but admins are just kinda... not... there... like, a post once in a while but no one conversing. so now the mod forum is a containment thread for mods to vent and the PYF Feedback is a containment thread for everyone else to vent. But were all stuck waiting for the new feedback forum. Sounds like an epic fail situation, IMO.

man, if you can't face like 10 annoyed posters without freaking out and banning people, you're probably too chickenshit to be in any position of power.

If I were a mod and the admins stopped communicating while a bunch of poo poo was going on, I'd probably just stop modding. But I guess I'd never want to be a mod in the first place so it wouldn't really make a difference. In the mod forum do people jokingly go 'admins???' like people do with 'mods???' in the other forums?

docbeard posted:He may well have genuinely believed she was IK only of the Sagas thread, I can't imagine any of this is written down anywhere (or at least I don't remember it being written down during my brief ill-advised etc.) on the forums backend IKs can be restricted to only one thread - like there are cspam IKs for specific threads who do not have the ability to probe people elsewhere - so theres no way there was any confusion about whether spr could use buttons outside of the sagas thread.

docbeard posted:This was Fluffdaddy's answer for why her buttons were removed: ahh, yah. it was written down though. PYF thread here: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4009170&pagenumber=1&perpage=40&userid=0#post525319100 and i made a note in the mod forum of skipping the idea thread IKs and just letting everyone loose in PYF. i am guessing admins dont want to deal with it now if the new feedback forum is dropping soon, but see no reason spr cant be reinstated at a future date. or heck, just give IK stars to a new batch of people. i still genuinely believe rotating in stars in and out is a good idea overall.

rotating IKs works great in imp zone. doing it elsewhere may get too close to admitting IZ is right about something for the admins tastes tho

admins seem to generally like IZ though so i think that would be an easy win if PYF modd wanted it.Dr Kool-AIDS posted:If I were a mod and the admins stopped communicating while a bunch of poo poo was going on, I'd probably just stop modding. But I guess I'd never want to be a mod in the first place so it wouldn't really make a difference. ha sometimes. not enough. i like modding but i also mod very quiet subs where people are generally chill and there's no real mod work. i mostly try to run community threads and contests or just change thread titles/icons or guve out new avs. it's fun. that's not the same experience modding other subs tho

I'll suffer the indignity of actually putting effort into an OP if people want the zoos thread back, unless we're holding out hope it'll be ungassed will still be making a mod joke about the Iceland dick museum tho

What if someone made a PYF individual combatant death thread? Maybe then the mods would actually take action against it? Or at least every other thread so we know that's the paradigm?
