oh dang it looks like Carl already is - nevertheless my point still stands that the other two would be great choices for mods that would not hand out dipshit probations for silly stuff while still knowing where the lines are

CarlCX posted:Brut's our noble MMA mod, I'm just thread maintenance and occasional shenanigans IK. With you on the rest, though. as a side note I also wasn't meaning I wanted anyone currently a mod de-modded, just the other two added in addition that way there would be the coverage folks are asking for without any witch hunts about who is or isn't here enough because expecting modding this place to be like a second job is not only asking too much but it's also likely to make each moderator insane as we've seen happen multiple times before

Gumball Gumption posted:Feedback: our mods should be referred to as referees to fit the theme. History Comes Inside! posted:Referees can only probe posts they actually read I actually really like both of these without irony if there was a way to make the second one work without completely removing the report button I've never needed the use of the report button but I don't want people thinking there wouldn't be a way to immediately point out posts with hate speech or illegal poo poo etc banger of an idea that would fit the theme of the subforum perfectly though on both

the ignore function would be far more useful if it didn't put that stupid notice on there asking you to click to see the post taking up nearly as much space as the bad post would have just make the post invisible altogether like it never even happened I tried using it once many years ago and those notices were more annoying than the posts I was trying to ignore so I gave up on the feature forever

Critical posted:This thread seems to think that the "words before buttons" philosophy is best, and I very much tend to agree. You may have noticed in the AEW thread. A slight nudging of the conversation seem to have helped keep the thread from hurtling completely off the rails. Also spent most of the night last night nearly in tears laughing at some of the posts in there, so I appreciate the effort of everyone to keep sane. Your whole post was good but this in particular is awesome - this method (outside of a few people that just can't stop melting down and refuse to take a hint over the years) seems to work best to keep everyone happy without going buck wild with probations please don't go nuts modding this place, you seem to have your poo poo together and it's already claimed so many souls

outside of that one poster that physically can't stop themselves from melting down at every chance the aew thread has been the funniest it's been in a long time so thanks to cm punk for being a petty messy bitch completely unprovoked and to our moderators for being chill

Critical posted:i honestly think it's 95% that everyone is able to concentrate on the asininity (is this a word?) of the drama so no one is arguing about the women or hangers booking or whatever the gently caress we get into slapfights every week about. we will take the 5% credit though. the mma threads were always united for short periods of time by conor mcgregor meltdowns and jon jones' brushes with the law so it's good to see the wrestling threads get their version

I'm glad you're both taking the same approach from the start because it's a great approach and it's already showing results shout out to the rest of the mods for chilling out a bit too, the last couple days have been noticeably different in atmosphere I've always preferred the just make a post and tell people to chill or they'll get probed method rather than just handing them out constantly to everyone because a warning typically works and the posters it doesn't work for don't end up here long anyway

can we do away with posting vague clickbait fightful select tweets without a summary of the information in the 'article' - they're basically as annoying as rovert posting and posting vague tweets behind a paywall is really stupid

JUNGLE BOY posted:0 days since last incident of me posting content i enjoy majorly pissing someone off for some reason sorry you took this personally because it wasn't about you, and you didn't ruin my day or whatever the dunk attempt was there the only thing I was asking for is requiring a summary below the tweet of what is actually behind the paywall if someone is going to vaguepost it often times people already do this, which is nice - you not doing that this time you can take personally if you really need to I guess?

Critical posted:I usually take the SRS tweets as an unspoken "Anyone with a sub have the scoops brother?" request. this is basically all I was asking for if you post a srs vaguepost, include a summary of any real information that is behind the paywall or just don't post it History Comes Inside! posted:Serious question, what do you expect people to post as a summary with it if they aren’t a subscriber so have absolutely no information to add other than the twitter scoopster’s vaguepost? If it's just clickbait with absolutely no info how about just not posting it because that's basically just an advertisement

JUNGLE BOY posted:You posted it immediately after my post but ok. And there wasn't a summary yet, the summary was the tweet. I was posting it because it was being widely circulated elsewhere, and I wanted to discuss it because I was hoping someone else would post the news when it came out. it was literally just the most recent example of something that happens fairly often and something I forgot to bring up previously as a suggestion so it kinda was a post it before I forget again situation, it wasn't directed at you personally so I apologize if it seemed that way

Kosmo Gallion posted:Like, what is this subforum's obsession with Trev? He's got some stupid weird ban in place where he's not actually banned and hangs over the place like a ghost. Just ban him properly and move on. If somebody posts his tweets in the bad takes thread, who cares? That's what it's there for. If you're gonna probe people for posting Rovert tweets than you may as well do the same for whenever Dave or SRS vague post in their tweets. he's a mentally unstable narcissicist that goes full on stalker meltdown to people in PMs here when he's allowed around and had multiple posters feeling like he's actually a risk to keep around because the instability kept getting worse it's not just about his stupid tweets hope this helps

yeah the post was probably a joke but it was also weird and like iggy said sixers are a pretty harmless way to get a point across lightly without being heavy handed about it - most people that get them don't even realize it until they look at their rap sheet later lol

the key is to just read the last page then post like you know what happened in all of them just like when you dont watch the show for months at a time and have opinions on it's direction or quality I have done both at points but when will remain a mystery because I make sure my posts are always bad so that nobody ever notices

years ago I used to get mad about the posts of others a lot - got into a bunch of arguments and tried to be part of the posting police then I got old and stopped taking words an anonymous person posts on the internet about fake fighting (and pro wrestling) seriously because at the end of the day nothing they say actually matters I recommend it, my blood pressure is lower and it lets me enjoy the joke posts more Orange Carlisle fucked around with this message at 04:30 on Feb 28, 2023 |

Cavauro posted:'The Hausu Usher' brought up other subforums that I guess they like to post in as proof that this place is full of hosed up cultists or something, but if they didn't care about taking part in those subforums and only showed up there every few months to repeat a shtick about how everyone there is a hypocrite, those forums would also probably take note and grow progressively more tired of it, instead of seeing that poster as any other random person every day. There's a clear difference in how they conduct themselves here and I don't know, maybe a mod is needed who understands what Jim Cornette is to take a look at this situation but it seems pretty apparent to me that this has already happened. This person comes here to pull strings and present themselves as a normal person who gets pulled into teaching the enlightened centrism and nobody else—even in a forum as even-keeled and sensible as Inspect Your Gadgets—would want to go, "shucks, put them on ignore!" as a way of 'resolving' it. people that normally sleep on the lighthearted cav posts shouldn't just skip over the serious ones because they're right on
