This whole thing began because some people are very upset that low-effort trolling might potentially be curtailed in GBS. Potentially. In GBS.

this all began because someone was making the argument that 16bitbutthead should get a synthy style level of unique punishment for making fun of the oceangate sub thread being a bad thread.

My sincere feedback on the management of GBS would be to stop cultivating a culture where people make such ugly, dysfunctional threads and posts that their only defence is 'if you don't like it, don't read it'. It's the front page of the forums, it'd be nice if it wasn't our sewer too

I think it's unhealthy to believe that bad posts made by other people are some sort of negative reflection on you as a person. Please don't tie your identity to the forums so much that it's psychically wounding to you to see bad posts.

I'm sorry you don't like GBS, I think it is pretty laid back and relatively free of truly bad posts. Sure there are lots of dumb threads, but they are pretty benign. The truly bad ones are handled quick, I'm not sure what else you want.

Man walks into therapists office.
"Doc, im depressed, gbs is full of posts i think are bad, i cant sleep, i cant eat, nothing helps".
Doc goes "Ah! Common problem with a simple solution, if the bad posts are upsetting you, simply don't read them. Then you'll feel better"
Man bursts into tears, "But doctor! I'm the one posting them"

some people are upset about the submarine thread because no one gives a poo poo about the dead rich people or something. a bunch of hand wringing about how the dudes 18 year old son was innocent. i think that's why 16bb was epically trolling it in the first place.

i think they were upset that someone was speculating about what happened to the bones of the occupants

the number one gbs rule, shan't speculate, was brazenly ignored so perhaps they did have a point?

:siren: Not every thread posted in GBS is comedy gold. Sad but true. The worst offenders are usually swiftly dealt with, but if you feel that one has been overlooked and is especially heinous, please report or PM a mod of your choice.
Otherwise just vote 1 and move on. You don't have to like everything, and that is absolutely A-OK!

My read of it was the intense pressure turned the carbon in their bones into rare sea-diamonds and hence their skeletons are now luxury items.

The luxury bones thing was entirely a joke about how dental care is an expensive luxury and as a result, people call teeth luxury bones. This exists outside of the context of that thread and it was shoehorned in as a poorly executed joke.
