Is it just for the sake of maintaining years-long forum grudges do you think? Like if they stepped down from the job they hate it would be admitting defeat in the least important fight of all time?

The forum over the last 3 months reminds me exactly of the months running up to the removal of FYAD and the nuclear wasteland that followed. Mods who only give a poo poo about their own personal fiefdoms, actively banning anyone they dislike for personal reasons while jeered on by discords full of their posting friends, backed up by admins actively hostile to the community whos response to anything is over the top reactive punishments. The forums are even more insular than they were 12 months ago, are only going to get more insular with the default option being 'thread/forum ban' now and actively driving off anyone who so much as questions it. Following SPR around the forums to find posts worthy of further probations is petty as poo poo and gives me zero confidence in how the forum will be run in the future.

like, poo poo or get off the pot the community isn't going to wait for the admins to get it together it's just gonna leave not only the people who are vocal about this stuff either - if this many people are willing to voice their upset this many times? there's a lot of people who feel the same way who aren't, but will once the people saying what they were gonna say leave, then they'll leave too this isn't something that can be fixed by ignoring it

Any community with this many posters is going to experience friction. It's inevitable. They're going to be mad at each other. They're going to be mad at the mods for weighing in, no matter which way. The point isn't to create a community that's peaceful and sedate. The goal is not zero reports.

and I'm saying this as someone with zero established beef with any mods or admins on this website, not part of a Crew, i just like the somethingawful forums and have for like twenty years, but I'm about ready to just get cool people's contact info and bounce like it's the peak of the brain damaged pill poppin lowtax era this isn't fun and it's not worth putting my free time into -and I'm unemployed lmao- because you don't know which mod will hate that people are having fun and destroy it utterly

Thread/subforum bans shouldn't even be a thing. If somebody is being a shithead, handle it. If they're willing to stop being a shithead it should be allowed, and even celebrated. Like, Erosion has demonstrated multiple times in this very thread that they're a useless, disingenuous, fucker who only posts in PYF to start poo poo. But if they ever put in the effort to stop being a complete pile of trash, and wanted to participate in PYF threads on an honest level, that's a good thing. EDIT: well lol @ that happening while I was typing.

i think things have been far worse in the past but it's really discouraging to see old behaviors coming back, and like no effort to fix this. like anyone with a brain can tell that the lack of communication with the admin staff is a problem, and that's not difficult to fix, but instead we get all this

The thing is mods / admins shouldn’t be “trolling” people or making mock threads. That’s just lovely behavior.
