I think shutting the Wrestle Queerdom thread after one (admittedly loving terrible, should've eaten a probe) bad post was probably a bit premature. I don't think people are really done talking about it, and it'll just spill out into other venues, most likely the social media thread that it originally span off of.

the reason the thread was made in the first place was because there was a lot happening all at once, if discussion begins crowding out the indie wrestling or social media threads again, it can be reopened. But it seemed that the trickle of actual new news had slowed to me. (but I will admit to have not been following it too closely)

Feedback: the forum is ready for a new wrestling hunger games thread. go ahead and run it.

Sorry, I don't read the feedback thread that often but here's some feedback to your feedback:

My work duties have changed and I'm experiencing severe creative burnout so I probably couldn't write another season to the standards of the previous 5, but if someone else wants to run one they'd have my full support.

It really does mean a lot that you remembered and liked it though!

I still think that the glut of stories that caused the thread to be opened in the first place have slowed to a point where the updates can just be put in the indie thread (for details of the actual show and the failures there) or the wrestling social media thread (for the dumb twitter drama, if that must be discussed), but sure whatever.

The major ones that I check when I want to share something are VK.com, archive.org (for real, a whole host of 2022 poo poo has started turning up there, including episodes of Dynamite & Rampage), youku.com. BilliBilli is also worth checking although the specific account I followed stopped uploading new stuff.

*Ahem* I would like to bring forth to my fellow posters, that 24 hours for poking fun, 24 hours after the offending post, forgotten by everyone, may be too long, especially on today of all days, the biggest Dynamite ever. (as told by Jim Ross) It is just my opinion, I know many will be satisfied, some will even say that it was too short a time. I would just like it given some thought, if possible. Please, serious posting only, or Brut will whoop all of our asses.

24 hours may have been a bit long but that was a needlessly rear end-y post, it deserved a probe In My Opinion.

As the person that post was about I just want it known that NienNumb sent me a very nice apology a little bit afterwards and I sent Karmic a PM saying I don't think a prob was needed.

yea ok
Jul 27, 2006

I can agree that it was perhaps not the most tactful, nor a nice thing to say. It hurt the feelings of one Shard, and we would like to make everyone feel welcome, no matter how many Kidd Bandit tweets they post. It is specifically the length that I would take umbrage with, and perhaps could be rectified. It is, after all, the Biggest Dynamite Ever (as told by Jim Ross). I think 6-12 hours with that obnoxious purple bar would be enough to make NienNunb think it through next time he tries to be a little Turd from hell.

Our Kidd Bandit posters are our greatest resource and must be protected. But if NN apologized and Shard is okay with it I would agree that a reduction so that NN can be around for The Biggest Dynamite Ever would probably be a net positive for the subforum.

Orange Carlisle
Jul 14, 2007

I saw it as a joke about shard posting about kidd bandit fairly often (not a bad thing, people should be able to post about things they enjoy as much as they'd like) and didn't even see it as being a dunk attempt and more of a harmless comment but I can see how it could be interpreted that way

either way a sixer probably would have done the trick if a probe couldn't be avoided but I don't know if there was further context there

I agree. I will attempt to have it cut to 12 hours.

Actually, with the private apology, the attempt will be to get it removed as soon as possible.

can't post an apology when you're probed

jokes aside if people personally apologized even via PM more often we could abolish probations altogether and let freedom ring
