Seth Pecksniff posted:Finally, I'm not blanket shutting down any "crew" accusations. People are free to post/what they believe in, even if I don't believe it. It's true, constantly accusing people of being in disruptive "crews" or perhaps even being Russian ops is completely healthy to a forum and will in no way have any negative consequences in the futures. *Touches earpiece* Ooohhhh....

ScRoTo TuRbOtUrD posted:Can someone tally how many posts this user makes about gbs versus how much they actually post in gbs 16-BBH used his IK powers to chain probe a dude obsessed with dog death and creep-posting about strip clubs until the dude autobanned, so he might actually have some good feedback on improving the forums, even if you think he's a shithead.

16-bit Butt-Head posted:i think the threadbans are a bad idea both because thread bans traditionally dont work outside the politics forums and because its just going to bringing negative attention down onto the thread and gbs causing even more trolling the probes coming days later even if it was because of an admin needing to approve them is also not a good look . Threadbans for one dude who made two posts in the thread and one who made three seems... Uh.. Not good? You wanna punish people trolling, go for it, but seriously? "Every post you make in this thread from now on will cost you $10" seems way overboard and more like trying to continue the forum wars bullshit that keeps dragging this place down.

Charles Bukowski posted:I paid my ten dollars for moderated forums and by gum that's what I've received over the years, for better or worse. If someone is a consistent stick in the spokes of a specific thread, telling them to go find something else to do away from this one in particular isn't unreasonable, is it? OK, so is two posts the Official GBS Threshold for Threadbans, or three?

KazigluBey posted:Telling people to knock it off and tolling them if they don't ONLY ever makes them post more. Moderation has never worked, not once. Not what I said at all, but sure, go off.

Drone_Fragger posted:Yeah, please give your input. Deciding to punish perceived "regulars" and perceived "outsiders" differently is exactly forums warfare, yes. We're all loving goons. We all paid our not to only post in TFF or YOSPOS or YLLS exclusively, we paid to post everywhere and that should be encouraged. Joke-rear end posts from someone that you've decided is an drat outsider and therefore a troll should absolutely not be treated differently than joke-rear end posts from someone you view as a regular and is just and adorable scamp. If Seth wants to hit threadshitters hard, that's fine, but make it the same for everyone. We're all loving goons here. Christ.

KazigluBey posted:Who did Seth fail to prob for threadshitting the feedback thread? Is the proposed lore that only the perceived "outsiders" were probed and the "regulars" not? Punishing "outsiders" more harshly than "regulars" is literally in the rules in the OP Is an non-regular posting that much more egregious than a regular posting "Make me a mod, why not done?" a lot? They're both threadshitting in their own ways. EDIT: Is this BAGS FLY AT NOON posted:Yeah man. Like your normal posts in the chat thread are fine but your smug trolling gimmick loving sucks. Like I know you don’t give a poo poo about the “direction of GBS” but you just love tugging your tiny lonely dick to causing unnecessary drama because you’re a sad piece of poo poo with nothing better to do. Better or worse than two posts saying "AIDS"?

Slugworth posted:General poo poo posting is frowned on, but apparently tolerated to a point. Trolling isn't. The differentiation seems pretty cut and dry, but is there a specific post you want to litigate?
