Having a mod who is around to hand out probably before things get out of hand would be nice. But as that's already being considered, I dunno, I'd have said things are fine most of the time.

Gumball Gumption posted:Actually, another place where I think having more mods or IKs will help is that threads are free so I really do think people would be comfortable making something like a "serious posts only thread" and expect that to be enforced within reason. I think being able to do that will solve some of the problems where mega threads are trying to be for everyone. It just requires someone reading those threads with some buttons. Even as someone who (mostly) leans towards the "taking wrestling too drat seriously" side of things, I'm not sure I'd really be willing to go as far as to post a "No Fun Allowed Zone" thread. Honestly, the community of wrestling watchers on SA is so small at this point that while something akin to the Enclosed Pool Area but permanent would be nice, it'd be a lot less fun for everyone if you had half the posters to interact with. Like, there's only so many of us, we can probably learn to live with each others "foibles", be that being a mark & taking wrestling too seriously or indulging in some casual shitposting (& I'm not knocking shitposting, it's fun)

The Hausu Usher posted:A couple weeks ago this person who doesn't normally post in wrestling threads popped in to talk poo poo and the thread treated them like a brony sitting down for a pop tart in Satriale's. When I watched AEW regularly I would post in the threads with my opinions on what I watched & I was often less positive on stuff than the thread consensus (for lack of a better term, I don't really think there's a hive mind so much as just like-minded people sharing their passion for something) & nobody ever got unfairly hostile to me. There's a way of talking about something that other people are passionate about where you disagree without saying "wow, why do you like this thing when it is clearly bad?" Because that doesn't suggest actually wanting a discussion, that's being on the wind-up. At the bare minimum, if you come into a thread acting hostile you can't be shocked when people are hostile back, such is the internet. Either deal with the consequences of your actions & take it on the chin, de-escalate, or just maybe think about how to ask your question a little harder so it doesn't come off like you're a wind-up merchant?

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. The difference with Dave, Sapp & rovert is that Dave & SRS aren't banned from posting in this sub-forum & rovert is. If people absolutely must post his tweets keep them to the Cornette quarantine zone or at a push the Chris Regal Memorial Thread. Because I realise asking goons to exercise self-control is folly

Shard posted:I was marinating on this since the other day it happened to me. SA shouldn't allow posters to be harassed and someone can change their avatar to something terrible just because they don't like them. If we can't outright remove the ability for other users to buy someone an avatar, then we should at least make it publicly known who bought the avatar and if they bought it to harass someone it should be punishable. How is changing your avatar harassment? It's an inconvenience, & for example I have a dog for an avatar when I am not a dog person, but  If it bothers you enough you can replace it, if it doesn't then you can live with it as a permanent memorial that you got someone else really mad over a silly internet argument. I had some dumb avatar "gifted" to me for a while before the dog was gifted to me by someone who was clearly sicker of looking at it than me, I don't even remember what it was though, a fat bloke dressed as a mermaid or something?I'd kind of like to know who I made mad enough to waste money on but Red Text calling someone a dumb poo poo for example is part of the DNA of the site. In the same way that some people have the premature baldness gene & that's encoded in their DNA Also I think this is more of a topic for QCS than the PSP feedback thread, because it's a sitewide issue.

Good evening US cultural imperialism wins the day again, destroying my culture of using the c-word as punctuation to the point where it has lost any & all meaning (I'm joking, obviously, I don't think I even really use it much in my posts unless I'm talking about politics, which obviously doesn't happen so much in this sub-forum.)

Kosmo Gallion posted:It's not just in the AEW thread. The general WWE and Bad Take threads are filled with posters jumping on each other. If somebody mentions that they once enjoyed an Undertaker match, we're treated to a barrage of people falling over themselves to explain that Undertaker is a Blue Lives boomer idiot and you're wrong for ever liking him. It makes some tedious reading and kills any other line of discussion. It really doesn't feel like it happens that often in the WWE thread. Which I only read because it is an order of magnitude less busy that the AEW thread. It's been true in the past for sure and it isn't free from this on occasion but definitely isn't "filled" or "a barrage" or anything like that.

History Comes Inside! posted:Anyone who reads weepy wangman posts as sincerely hating on the hanger is wildly misreading the tone like 80% of the time It's more that it's just the lowest effort white noise running joke. It's not that offensive, it's just so far removed from the context of where the name came from as to sound weird and dumb if you weren't there for the origins. Also, the thing where Goons seem to think it is somehow impressive to not use their ignore list and just repeatedly get into the dumbest slap fights is incredibly dumb. If you don't have the self-control to not rise to obvious bait then for the love of God ignore the posters who aggravate you. If not for yourself then for the sake of everyone else.

Edward Mass posted:I believe in refreshing threads when necessary - having a 200+ page thread is too big a barrier to new posters who won’t even read the OP, Goddammit. I've considered doing a new Puro thread but honestly? That thing is a time machine, dating back to 2008! Looking at it is fun, just look at this update from the first page. "New Japan was at the Tokyo Dome for the last time (ever?), drawing a half-full house with probably a ton of free ticket giveaways. Main event was Lesnar retaining the IWGP title over Nakamura, meaning that Brock and NJ feel secure in the current legal wranglings. Other results included Shibata over Tanahashi, Chono & Tenzan retaining the tag titles over Omori & Koshinaka, and Albert/A-Train beating Nakanishi. " Besides, it's not really active enough to desperately need replaced. Might do a new Women's Wrestling thread though if no one else volunteers, because that one is 7 years old, mentions GLOW & the OP is banned. forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Mar 12, 2024 |

MJeff posted:Is it purely a matter of language? Would you prefer "the assault company" or "the abuse company"? I think boiling it down to 3 words suggests you're using the topic for point scoring rather than taking it seriously. Which I don't think you are but it gives that impression. Like MRT said, it's far too flippant for a horrifically serious issue. Yes, people should feel bad for investing time on a company that has overseen decades of absolutely horrifying behaviour, both from talent & management. If the forum isn't going to just ban all discussion of the WWE, & I doubt there's much actual desire for that, then I'm not sure there's really anything to be gained from repeating a very reductive version in a very glib fashion. Everyone here knows about the accusations, the stories, the vile behaviour that's gone on there going all the way back to the Ring Boy Scandal if not even before. If people want to still ignore that in order to watch a bad version of professional wrestling then that's between them & their conscience. For the record, I'm totally fine with this just becoming a WWE free zone but

Mr Hootington posted:That doesn't matter. Many of you are validly pointing out that watching a stream of Raw on Hulu generates some amount of money that goes to TKO Holdings and may end up in Vince's pocket. This also applies to archive footage of the territories or WCW found on social media or Peacock and PPVs of UFC matches. Because people aren't as far as I can see arguing that WWE should be just removed from this forum because of moral reasons but because there's 3 people here who actually watch it & the threads thus inevitably get filled up with posts with people who don't like it for a myriad of reasons, so it's just easier binning it. If the MMA threads were full of an order of magnitude of people more griping about the company than wanting to enjoy it then fine, but MMA fans have long since had to come to terms with the fact that their sport is full of absolutely rotten people. Of course the irony is someone even created a WWE Mecca thread for people who can't handle criticism about their chosen wrestling viewing experience & nobody bothered to use it so it's now on the 3rd page of the forum. And let me tell you about wrestling that you can watch on the internet without using a service that might pump up the next WWE media deal. It's called  & it's honestly the best way to watch old wrestling anyway because it means there's not lovely overdubs of theme music because WWE didn't want to license Enter Sandman or Natural Born Killaz or what have you
