There's no such thing as poster-mod privilege.

sometimes mods have revealed particularly stupid reports and it's been funny as gently caress, even. do it, the people demand it

cspam is this weird state where by all accounts its a fyad-lite thunderdome where you can insult a liberal and shitpost, but the admins historically hate the users

lol the admins hate all the forums and users now except gbs I guess

e: like theres a 40 page in pyf that is begging for the admins to talk to the userbase that the admins are clearly reading and yet refusing to post in

lmao i know you will never say who, but how many are for AiT posts

i think there were like half a dozen reports over the last week about AiT committing the horrible crime of posting "cars ftw", so based on the excel spreadsheet Jeff makes us fill out about who gets reported the most, that means I have to annihilate his account with a tactical nuclear missile

Hi - I've been posting in the Trump thread more and move over the last couple months, and they've been rather welcoming! It moves very fast, which is one reason why some people (nosy-neighbor types, mostly?) might dislike it.

The posters there are largely an amusing and irreverent lot with similar senses of humor and leftish politics. There are personalities that grate against each other and complain like a pair of roommate cats might, but the mood is generally one of levity intended to shitpost away the existential blues of modern life while also posting recent news stories and funny twitter posts and so on. "Main Character Syndrome" is something that doesn't last long within that group, as there have been historically many bans and burnouts from the self-aggrandizing-posting crowd that hung out in the trump threads in the past.

Dunno what the problem some have with it or its posters nowadays, other than it's insular enough with its poster-lore that I agree it's like a different sub-channel of CSPAM, like the channel with the cartoons under the newscorp's larger media umbrella.

it's very wild how they could diffuse this by saying anything at all, even a non-statement like "We're discussing what to say about all this" would be preferable to the radio silence going on

When I become the new admin for GBS, PYF, and C-SPAM, I'll definitely take on a stronger community role in communicating relevant information to stakeholders involved in and affected by shifts in the forum environment.

Probing the entire thread was funny, but would have been better to do anywhere but qcs.

My guess is that the community manager he hired has completed their evaluations and has presented Jeff with her extensive report on why SA isn't providing an increase in ARR YOY driven by an uptick in unique net-new user registrations

its pretty bad that we have an entire culture around them here in the US, but that thread always just devolves into pyf car crashes

some of the early portions of that htread were interesting but theere is only so much you can say about infrastructure and how to better it. tahts also why i think its better just to have smaller threads that die or you can close once they get too aids
