I think the wrestling thread mods are absolutely terrible at doing what mods are supposed to do. No issues with them as people or posters but they need to go

Also no more goddamn spoilers in thread titles it’s easy enough to avoid going into threads about stuff you haven’t watched yet and if you go into one and get spoiled then you’re a deserving dumbass but putting it in the thread title is a dick move when there’s a large chunk of the forum who aren’t in the US and don’t watch all their wrestling at 2am.

yeah

I think if you had any sort of active moderator participation at all you wouldn’t run into those issues that the AEW thread runs into. I’m not talking about 6ers, I just mean like literally posting “hey chill out” in the thread instead of silently probing people days or weeks later for stuff that nobody can understand.

To get real for a minute, one thing I severely disagree with is anyone saying particular jokes or styles of joke/troll posting are “played out” or acting as if moderation of these things are in any way necessary. Just because you don’t find posting C*dy hilarious , or saying we have to look at a wrestler’s Twitter likes funny, doesn’t mean others do not enjoy these posts. I for one love them. I love the jokes and good natured trolls here. I love getting told I’m a big idiot if I post a bad opinion. If you see a joke post and don’t find it funny, unless it’s something malicious about someone then who cares? Life is bad enough for people, there’s no need to claim that certain jokey post styles are “exhausting” when seeing the words C*dy Rh*d*s may bring joy to the likes of *MF or others.

I love posting about how Rampage numbers are in the mud, even though I like to watch the show. It harms precisely nobody and wasting a mod or IKs time on it sounds bizarre to me when the real issues here are minor slap fights that could be easily resolved by a mod or IK saying “hey chill”

As the famous yeah okay said, it’s a forum about wrestling (don’t care about the UFC threads) a made up thing designed to entertain us and make us hoot and holler. The tolerance for posting utter nonsense should be extremely high imo.

I think there is a group of people who don’t take posting very seriously and another group of people who sometimes take it very seriously indeed, and the root of most conflict is these two groups posting past each other and getting frustrated.

If only there was someone who could take the middle ground… a sort of moderate approach, if you will.

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.

Dave no, as he is always right. Trev and SRS should be permas on sight.
