Imagine explaining to an outsider that the people banned from posting in a given thread are not the ones posting gore but rather the ones advocating against doing so

e: think of how insane you would sound raving about "Putinists" and how using Banderite as a negative epithet is a crime against humanity etc. etc. If anyone is agreeing with you it's so you'll be quiet

it used to be even worse if you can imagine that

the correct strategy re: gbs ukraine thread is to wait 5-20 years to when the general consensus has shifted to "actually escalating the war was a bad idea oops my bad" and then post there

Ok I'll engage. There's multiple Ukraine/Russia threads. D&D has one, GiP has one (I assume/trust), CSPAM has one, and GBS has one. So you can see the exact same dreary bullshit through a few lenses.

This place posts about the truth of the war and that war is bad. Idk I don't read it, but Majorian was modding it and it seemed fine when there was a big ol brigade week where all the U/R threads all started going cross-forum to debate. I did not get probed for posting "war bad"

D&D is koos effort trap zone, and out of all of the threads that one is the best case study on how to handle this. BUT STILL multiple times that thread has linked directly to charities that that support real deal actual kill-the-jews Nazis. I do get probed for posting "war bad"

GBS is the old Mt Everest death watching fucks hooting and hollering over the death of enemies. I don't believe them when they say it is a bit. It's not, they get super duper horny. That's being modded by kit who has been the dumbest bitch in like the last 2 years of QCS struggle sessions directly calling out her various pet threads.

We all hashed this out months ago. CSPAM stuck to the non-brigading truce talks or whatever. GBS absolutely has not. Their psychos got slaps on the wrist while like 4 of our psychos got permabanned I think I'm forgetting. All this happened months ago, so this whole this is deeply funny because of direct experience in drinking FORUMS BATTLEMENTAL SPACE is kinda fun.

i dunno what the gbs ukraine thread is like now but it was genuine lunatic poo poo at the start of the war. posters joyfully talking about incinerated corpses of truck drivers

Hi - I've been posting in the Trump thread more and move over the last couple months, and they've been rather welcoming! It moves very fast, which is one reason why some people (nosy-neighbor types, mostly?) might dislike it.

The posters there are largely an amusing and irreverent lot with similar senses of humor and leftish politics. There are personalities that grate against each other and complain like a pair of roommate cats might, but the mood is generally one of levity intended to shitpost away the existential blues of modern life while also posting recent news stories and funny twitter posts and so on. "Main Character Syndrome" is something that doesn't last long within that group, as there have been historically many bans and burnouts from the self-aggrandizing-posting crowd that hung out in the trump threads in the past.

Dunno what the problem some have with it or its posters nowadays, other than it's insular enough with its poster-lore that I agree it's like a different sub-channel of CSPAM, like the channel with the cartoons under the newscorp's larger media umbrella.
they are reactionary jerks

the belief is that a sinister coterie of fyad/qcs/pyf posters who just love causing trouble destroyed a functioning goonfund to get their jollies. its the same mentality as like the death wish movies where criminals just love doing crimes and hurting people. in it for the love of the game.

redneck nazgul posted:

that's my whole point. not everybody attacking plinkey had his best interests in mind or was doing it in good faith--some of them were doing it because lol drama. we can disagree on the percentages all day, but conflating "dude running it like this is going to screw you and the people you want to help, let's make it better" with "this guy's blowing the goon fund on craps and hookers lol" just whitewashes the shitheads and makes the genuine concerns seem less genuine.

it's not actually funnier if plinkey gets in trouble, it's loving terrible for him and the people who need help. the optimal solution would have been "don't let him start the fund without accountability", followed by "try and work with him when the issue was first raised, not after several days of people dragging him and making it clear that a perma was the only resolution".

the problem is that both of those require mods to do their job and welp

the mods always side with the drama goons, it was always gonna end that way
