I'm struggling with how to say this, but this is getting very close to brigading SAD, which is the same sort of complaint you've all had about them. I'm going to warn you not to do that. If you have a legitimate gripe, then post it while following the rules. I don't care to hear the whole "well they don't follow it why should we" poo poo

This thread is getting way off track and I'm going to stop warning here soon on it. Knock it off.

How can you brigade a place that's supposed to be for everyone though

Every forum and thread is for everyone. They can still be brigaded though. Intent and context matters. But I would say more GBS posters should post there, especially if they're concerned their voices aren't being heard.

OK, real post.

It's fine to joke around on the internet, over-modderation hurts the community. I mostly do it while I wait for real life events.

I would never call someone hurtful things on purpose in person.There is a separation between internet shitposts and what actually affects you.

I mostly read other subforums to learn about cool, interesting skills other people have. I don't mess up those threads.

But this is GBS, and fireing off word salad shouldn't hurt anyone's feelings. That's kinda thier problem.

What kind of insult is it to call someone womens genitals anyway. Like.. are they saying they want to gently caress that c-word man? Or they hate them because they hate womens genitals? Very strange. Kind of like those genitals are independent of women and walking around and doing stuff some people hate. Weeeeeeird. My friend named his band Crunt which was funny.

every gbs post should be required to contain a slur

we can trial that for 3 months and then evaluate afterward if the slurs were really the problem or just a scapegoat rustled up by those mayflys from SAD

We should just encourage upvoting good threads and mods should look at who's downvoting good threads. Stickying threads always feels like forced mod approved popularity. I know GBS gets megathread clutter, but stickying uninteresting threads just train your eyes to ignore them.

a lot of goons are terrible at curating and moderating their own forum experience. shocking.

maybe make more tools available - a better ignore function that also hides the offending post if it is quoted, a user defined 'gentle caress' function etc

I don't know though I'm just a oval office

Some people enjoy getting angry at things, and they choose to constantly ruminate on topics/thread/posters that make them angry in the same way that one might enjoy picking at a scab.

We owe it to these people to keep shitposting.

Like it's not like the titles are misleading you into thinking they are something other than shitposts. Just don't click on the fart thread and leave the fart people be imo. Though we do need more effort threads in general I think
