Lmao you made ethic and fat comments about teen witch in your safe space and everyone lol’d. Exemplary behavior for an IK. If Kit had made the same joke you’d all be calling for her head. Fuckin hypocrites, all of you.

If teen witch had ever successfully made a funny post everyone would have lolled as well, it's weird you don't get this

Ok couple of things:

1) people who aren't regulars are allowed to comment on this provided they follow the rules

2) we're not doing forums exclusionary stuff and we're not hell dumping people

If you have feedback, post it. If not, don't engage. Simple as that

Feedback: Maybe mods should consider punishing attempts to turn threads into Wimp-Lo's Dojo for Posting & Grudges a bit more harshly that just "Hey, guys, cut it out" because... Yeah, that never works.

And punishing not just the ones perceived as trolls, but the ones going for the bait too.

Thank you for your consideration.


EDIT: Uuhh... I should probably point out that this was legitimate feedback. It happens in a lot of threads and sucks hard every time.

I suppose we could consider a situation (purely hypothetical, obviously) where a poster commented that female victims of abuse should just "post tits more" to gain acceptance.

I mean that obviously would deserve some action.

Let me just say that I, Smugworth, candidate for GBS moderator, plan to take a "GBS posters first" position when it comes to interforums reconciliations. For too long the good posters of this forum has had to show :decorum: to other lesser forums at the expense of having our voice heard and respected.

Vote Smugworth for moderator in 2023!

It went from people posting claims she'd edited a post specifically to probe someone, to them editing the post after the fact, to then turning out to have not edited the post at all (so the claims made by posters were actually untrue in the first case), followed by a 5 page derail about how cringe and un-based her modding style was (from people who I believe weren't even subject to her modding them) followed by demands she be unmodded not because she hadn't actually done what she'd been accused of, but because people didn't like her moderation style. Honestly incredibly psychotic stuff and in the end she stepped down rather than let it go any more deranged.

a post she had probated had been edited three days later by a mod/ik into a very weird message to the original poster. bcos somethingawful for no apparent reason anonymises mod edits (so it shows as "somebody" if its anyone but the person whos post it is. it shows their own name if they edited it) it was presumed the person who had pointlessly probated the post did it. ath then said it wasnt tw, at which point everyone blamed the other thread ik, because again a mod or ik edit is completely anonymous to everyone but admins so the only option is to try and guess who did it lol. i asked if this could be changed and if edits could always show who edited the post, because it appears to be entirely setup to cause this kind of misunderstanding, and was told it wouldnt be, for some reason. your ability to read words is astoundingly terrible.

Yeah, which was essentially what I said. Teen witch was blamed at first but eventually people found it wasn't her. Thread should of stopped there, because frankly the claims made in the OP weren't true. Teen Witch hadn't edited the post as everyone had claimed, someone else had, and the thread then descended into people tearing into her post history to prove how cringe she was, rather than any kind of useful debate on, as you say, should edits to posts be visible. It was a garbage fire.

No thanks.

It always starts with just one kiss. Then you're like "Ya know, two won't hurt." Then next you know know the bag's empty, you're surrounded by foil and those weird paper tags and your tummy is REALLY starting to hurt.

And that's assuming you can at least tolerate Hershey's chocolate.

Obviously it was a joke (I assume), but really are "jokes" about how (female) abuse victims should try "posting tits" to earn acceptance from their abusers not way over the line nowadays?

Posters could make similar "jokes" about how people with clinical depression should "just cheer up" and they would be probed for it. It's not acceptable.
