CommonShore posted:came here to ask that - what is the context I have no idea what's going on in that thread Basically Ichibahn has spent (I was going to say literal years citing problems dating back to 2017, but his rap sheet actually has him being banned for trolling in 2007 so take that further into context) years doing short low effort shitposts that are either directly trolling or otherwise just making absolutely poo poo posts. The post hit was just the latest in a pair (that I recall) of low effort poo poo posts that basically only existed to be a dick and contribute nothing. So I ended up hitting the more recent one mechanically, but it is very much a greater history of the poster. edit: oh god now I've gone and made an actual post in this thread.

I'm going to say directly I am personally against any name that is explicitly wrestling related and also explicitly a memorial thing. The former ignores the non-wrestling half of the forum and the later is very morbid. Otherwise please continue pitching stuff until I can astroturf enough support for Punch Sport Pagoda to return.

Also, vis-a-vis spoilers et cetera, my personal opinion is that if something has been broadcast live, the promotion is going to treat it as having had happened so I don't see the point in trying to avoid information you didn't see live. However I dig that there are highly anticipated wrestler events and if a post is reported complaining about spoilers for a big event happening outside of that event/promotions thread (Social Media, Bad Opinions, other promotion's threads), report it and I will jump on getting it tagged or whatever is actually needed. NienNunb posted:There should be a card magic trick thread in the poker forum Be the change you want to see in the world, I cannot (nor do I honeltly want to, card tricks loving rule) stop you. So yeah, from this point forward talking about the poker forum should be in the general thread or the poker forum, not here.

RE: The AEW Thread Covid Derail. The posts saying they were uncomfortable/non-uncomfortable going to shows were fine, what was bad was when the thread because about debating Dr. Fauci. This is a wrestling subforum and if there is a thread about talking about Dr. Fauci (either defending him or taking shots at him I'm not going to pretend to have a read) is happening it should not be in in this forum and it is not the AEW thread and if you want to have a slapfight about him, or COVID policies, or anything actionable have it elsewhere. Post about Wrestling/MMA and their related personalities and those people's foibles.

Rarity posted:I'm not doing writeups this time But you'd like a place to just kind of throw up reactions to old stuff you watch? Because it sounds like a "old wrestling" thread has some various sources (J-Ro could put the NOAH streams up there, that wrestling Roku channel could get some play), if no one wants to particularly be the change they want to see in the world, I can put together an OP for a ghosts of wrestling's past (the cool and interesting bits) thread after Dynamite.

Originally from: The Chris Regal Memorial Bad Takes Thread: you don't have to argue with stuff posted Cerebral Bore posted:If you yourself don't even want to look at the place, then surely you have to realize how unreasonable it sounds that your solution is "well just go engage with the place that I myself don't want anything to do with". If you are reading the posts to get mad, I'm sorry to tell you but you are already engaging. That ship has sailed because reading and feeling emotions is engagement. The question is what are you doing with that engagement because taking it and bringing it to another forum to, I don't know, signal boost it to get other people mad with you, is something I'm not keen on in general. What is the material difference from posting it in the Chris Regal thread and posting it in the forum you found it, in response to something you think is lovely and worthy of challenge. In a positive direction, specifically, because the main substantive difference is that I'll get annoyed at people trying to start fights (a dick move) over stuff I don't read or care about, because I remain completely cool with knowing there is a forum that I don't vibe with. (this is okay, you are free not to vibe with a forum or posting culture, but in the end posting on this website only matters as much as you make it)

Yeah, I'll be honest, the first week it was just a goof I thought would be funny since the Friday Forum had like an announcement and everything. And then someone pointed out it was back after I had posted the GDT, so I went with the flow.

Yeah, the Friday Forum's gimmick loving with app users is as good an excuse as any to stop with what was a fun bit once, a requested bit the second time, but does not need to be ran into the ground.

Overall, I thought the thread title was vague enough to not have people kick off about it. That's my take. Gumball Gumption posted:It's funny when it's dumb and weird stuff, boring when it's a 5 minutes of hate zone this is also my take.

So here is where I am at, the bad takes thread can be very funny when it's either birdbrained weirdos or people doing absolutely off the wall bits, but the main point is that you think it is funny to see the post there. It is a place where if you aren't at least sensibly chuckling at a thing posted in it, you are doing it wrong. I am prepared, and very excited, to enforce that standard if people would like it.

Sometimes a thread has more misses than hits (or looks to have wrung from the comedy stone as much as its going to be able to without having to become the most tedious dumb toxic thing) and for that there is the  button.

Here is the thing, I don't think Jungle Boy is a good poster and when someone else thinks a post they made was bad, I agreed with that assessment. I agreed with opinions that the posts by NienNunb and Malcom Excellent were also not good.

On "good faith" vs. "bad faith" posting and reactions: Like, I might just being poorly expressing my opinion, but it seems to me like this is posts about AEW. Where are you getting the energy to divine the honesty or integrity of the poster whose post you are reading? It seems exhausting in a way that seems pointless and boring, especially when there is a simpler barometer when you look at a post, did I enjoy it. I personally, do not feel like I have ever made a good faith post on the forums, because at my core all I am trying to do is making entertaining and good posts. Obviously I do not succeed because I am bad at posting.

dromal phrenia posted:lol that someone spent money on that avatar It's such a lovely job that I'm kind of sad someone spent money on it, because (to bring back my occasional poor language skills and the LividLiquid avatar buying situation which is completely unrelated to thread culture poo poo) stealing peoples money from av buys that are work safe is not likely to clear the queue. Like that is what it boils down to, the avatar was work safe, and I asked about it despite having seen other scenarios where that was the barrier to entry for immediately invalidating someones purchase because I was asked to. I was told that it was not bad enough through the appropriate channels, and continued about my day because what are you going to do. This is a comedy website, not a court of law.

MJeff posted:Yeah I'm gonna go with "what." So, there was a report calling out a joke that spermgod made in the ROH thread as being a dick. At first I looked at it and said, "oh this is a kind of dumb, dickish joke, but it's also its clearly a joke" then I read a post they made 40 minutes later in a different thread (the one quoted) where they are clearly still either thinking the exact same dickish joke is the height of comedy, or they are really just being a dick.
