This is the admin who, the last time PPJ blatantly overreached, unequivocally sided with him while propping up FYAD's supposed ability to effectively self-police.

this isn't even a cspam thing! I'm mostly a d&d poster, and i highly doubt i have any rep in anyone's mind!

I sometimes turn down sex and blowjobs from my girlfriend because I'm too busy posting in D&D. PS: She used my credit card to pay for this.
I'm not sure what the drama is or what anyone really hopes to accomplish here, but blue stars coming in, being idiots, and getting protected via bullshit probations on "problem" posters has a long and storied tradition. This poo poo was a persistent problem with Grover, and it was used to prevent outing some pretty heinous behavior on the part of the moderation team.

I thought we were past it, but evidently not.

actually, no, it was a post right above.

im still not sure how i posted after jeffrey closed the thread (unless i closed the thread somehow?)

Weird, viewing the newest posts went to the post after it, so I assumed it was PMed. My bad.

This is loving absurd. In a site that has had multiple bigoted or sex pest mods and admins, the sheer smoothbrained narcissism that makes the mods feel that they MUST always be in the right is insane

Also this whole "don't treat D&D like CSPAM" thing is baseless horseshit. That's not what this is about, though I know the mods involved really wish it was, because that's literally the only framing they can use where this whole thing doesn't sound stupid as gently caress from the initial probe to the current response.

I wish this was the Matrix so I could grab a big meaty slab of forums code and smash it to bits. Pour gasoline on the PI cute puppy thread and dance on it while it burns. Maybe smash up C-Spam so the D&D crew can tsk-tsk and say "they're only destroying their own community" while they poo poo their pants. People in positions of authority really only stand violence and fear, dialogues are pointless and only used to buy time so the anger fizzles out. gently caress them and gently caress QCS. We'll get better results without it tbh.

PPJ has a long history of loaded and biased probations and moderating behavior, this isn't an isolated incident even if the admins think B2 specifically is a problem poster.

Yeah don't treat d&d like it's c-spam, and don't post stuff like "teehee I'm going to kitty jail" before you go posting in d&d like it's c-spam. I am not an emotionless admin robot who is going to pretend I've never heard of this "Benghazi 2" before and treat her posts as if they happened in a vacuum. Max Paineframe explained the rest already, a lot better than I could. Case closed.

yeah if you can find someone doing that you should probably probe them, that's never not been insufferable nonsense.

on the other hand, lying to say that's what this was is remarkably stupid

"You shouldn't believe the obviously lying millionaire" is such an incredibly over-the-top insult and such a heinous breach of basic human decency that a loving month probation was the only way to handle it.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to break out the calipers and make sure the "just asking questions" crowd are staying on the right side of the line. It would be a shame if they slipped into outright bigotry; they might have to take a sixer.

We don't care if you don't have a perfect replacement yet. Just loving pick a replacement and go with it, even fool of sound, anyone would be better than PPJ at this point. And then if PPJ's replacement also turns out to suck, we can deal with that.

I agree. I called an obvious troll a smooth-brained knucledragger and got a week probe. His modding sucks and is biased as gently caress.

epic shitlibbereh behavior from d&d

greetings from the fyad-lite politics forum :c00lbert:

all posting hijinks aside, the only reason c-spam was brought up was the conjecture of past moderation activity that shows excessive force and overreach as a repeated incident by trying to assign blame of crossposting, the cases are different but the profiling is very much the same~

as this is the appropriate thread for it I have to laugh like hell that the official thread-reopening post-Benghazi2gate was five tweets with zero commentary

we will build a better D&D, a stronger D&D, a D&D composed entirely of twitter reposts and the occasional "big, if true"

The concept that cspam forums invaded d&d is insane since most of us started of reading that first. cspam is a fairly new forum with just a different posting style ffs.


edit: also BENGAHZI 2 did nothing wrong. there was nothing wrong with their post. Stop doubling down, admit yall were wrong and commute the drat sentence. Some loving Rick Perry level poo poo in there.

there has never been one between c-spam or d&d in the history of ever, and the fact that you're spouting this off just goes to show what a great job they handled the "incident" (it was fabricated reasoning) to have useful idiots like you assert this baseless accusation in an epic kramerpost because there was no clarity or resolution clearly

this thread is bad and forums meta is not deserving of careful thought. w/r/t ppg though not noticing any drama is usually a sign of a good mod. primary thread is pretty bad though, i'd gas the whole thing.
