Hey J-Ru I just wanna say that you're a great mod and despite me sometimes coming at you in the PMs I really respect your fairness in dealing with me. You've done a great job here.

WSAENOTSOCK posted:Hey, fuckers. I want to believe too. Don't accept this just to assuage your guilt. All of us, from admins down, don't know poo poo. I get your frustration and skepticism but to be honest I think we can't do poo poo but wait and see what's going to happen. Phase one is dumping Lowtax, after he's gone I would like to think there will be more transparency. Lowtax has done bad poo poo, but these communities are bigger than him and for better or worse we have to wait and see.

Chris James 2 posted:I don't think there's really an easy solution to modding or IKing this place that will leave everyone happy, and that's not something I say comfortably. The reality of the situation is 1) Jerusalem's on a different timezone/country than most of our userbase during the bulk of the hours, 2) Junpei's mod of at least one other forum, 3) the MMA IKs almost always stick to browsing MMA/boxing/grappling threads, and 4) I've been balancing my time when not on here with looking for a job, which is progressively taking more time (and will obviously take even more time away from being on FI if successful) I think you’re doing a good job. I have no real complaints about any of the IK’s or Mods, but I don’t think adding a third would be overkill. I think like almost all the people who cause problems and fights or whatever here have left at this point. We had that weird guy the other day having some kind of break down or something but it’s chill now.

NienNunb posted:I know that tensions have been high, both on the forums and in the world in general, but can we as a community take an effort to stop responding to people we disagree with as if they're posting in bad faith? EMF's post broke my heart today and it made me just so unbelievably angry at everyone (myself included I've been guilty of this in the past) who constantly antagonized them as if they were posting actively malicious content. There were times in the past when, frustrated at being called bad faith for liking WWE i’d lash out and say dumb things or lovely things that I wish I hadn’t and it was wrong to react that way. I also understand that when I came back to Fight Island after a long time away there were a lot more malicious posters around so trust was low and I think I was easily lumped in with them and instead of taking it in stride I acted dumb. The kindness people show me here now I think is directly because I’ve been trying to be a better person on here and in life after a really rough few years. I think you’re right that not being so skeptical of people is good and I think generally we as a group of posters are moving in that direction. I just also know I was part of the problem and i’m really grateful people engage with me now instead of just saying my lovely username to all my posts. There was a thread here a few months ago about saying nice things about other posters and it really opened my eyes to how I needed to be better, I didn’t get mentioned much in it but I understand why and I was so happy when a few posters did mention me. Times are so hard for all of us and i’m just happy people here are open and engaging each other with kindness most times.

yea ok posted:There's been a 'be positive about WWE' thread in the past. It wasn't very active lol. I don't really see a problem with n00bies, though. Obviously there's going to be an insularity here, the majority of us have been posting together for like a decade. In the particular case of EMF, since he's been talked about a lot lately in this thread, you have to remember he would say things like 'this forum would celebrate the death of Owen Hart today because it'd be a WWE wrestler dying'. It's not like everyone decided to kick his nut sack for no reason. IDK what went on in PMs with him and Jerusalem beyond that they talked a lot, but he's obviously changed the way he interacts here in ways besides saying bad things about WWE from time to time. I regret saying that. I was letting my personal issues at the time and life stresses control me and make me lash out at everything. I am grateful to JRu for setting me straight privately for sure
