is there a good summary post of all the poo poo. i feel like there's gotta be one in sad somewhere. i feel like it's going to need to be linked to people more than a few times

correct i guess. i like that dogs are now big-headed baby type animals that love humans too much but that's subjective

Xaris posted:

it's largely stupid pointless drama. but it's also very funny.

the timeline of events:
- friday morning CBO posts in SAD saying to ban brown moses for doxxing + being an cia dweeb
- friday afternoon, lots of people getting mad and Fritz eventually bans BM for self-promoting his bellingcat tweets
- friday night - sat morning: lots of people mad about cspam melting down incoherently over 'crews'. CZS posts a forum enemy list but later clarified was not an enemy list but an evil crew list but also forum enemies were on the list. some rando gbs war psychos get banned
- saturday evening: one of the worst gbs war psycho red-mist addicts PMs Fritz that he's going to doxx Lady Radia and he says "no that's a bad idea" and gives him a 6er
- later saturday night: the 6-er is over and the gbs war psycho doxxes Lady Radia in public. he gets permbanned and lady radia autobans because doxxed
- sunday: at some point CZS reveals Lib and Let Die's parachute (who left after getting doxxed) and he autobans. Fritz edits the autoban message without telling anyone leading to a confusion
- sunday night/today: CZS gets de-modded, then posts a meltdown in yospos and autobans. Fritz got de-admined for editting the message without telling anyone, then he autobans. also some other people get banned

bonus but unrelated: IC autobanned after getting chain-sixered for being creepy. then permbanned after autobanning just for good measure.

reading the manifesto (https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3147436) and also iron crowned's history of being the worst (https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4029909) is a must. hard to believe but he posted much worse 10 years ago. much much worse. shoulda been taken out back in 2015.

The confusion surrounding the enemy list and the subsequent meltdown by CZS also highlights the need for clear communication and transparency in online communities. Autobans and de-modding without adequate explanation can lead to further confusion and exacerbate tensions.

my summary sucks rear end because I didn't really follow it closely and was trying to keep it as brief as possible, someone else should probably do a better one.

i'll be honest I'm still not 100% clear why Fritz got de-admined. like editting an autoban message without telling anyone isn't great, but probably worth a 'tut tut don't do that again kay?'. i guess there was a lot more i missed.

his inaction and refusal to read the PM's a psycho poster sent him after lady radia expressed extreme discomfort about the psycho poster led to that psycho poster posting lady radia's personal information in an attempt to disprove her when if he had read the pm's or passed them on to another admin this could have been stopped by them permabanning him

i dont understand the lald drama i dont know the poster but they were apparently doxxed in the past, made a new account, and cinci zoo sniper outed them causing them to autoban with a post blaming cinci zoo sniper. fritz the horse edited this post without anyone's knowledge to protect cinci zoo sniper because admins can edit posts without anyone knowing unlike mods or iks which leaves a message saying someone hosed around with the post

okay yeah. but i also don't blame him for not reading some late night PM by a psycho in detail, plus being very new at it. i wouldn't put him in even the top 25 worst goon admins

anyways, all this could have been avoided if jeff just listened to my suggestion last year to permban everyone who complained about 'tankies.

Oh hey, I don't want to talk about it directly in the SAD thread, but I'm like 95% certain Koos is doing a long con monkey's paw with D&D. I think he came in with a mandate to stop the constant barrage of reports and slapfights coming from D&D and decided the best way was to turn the screws until the people who weren't prepared to wage a passive aggressive posting war and hammer the report button at every opposing viewpoint left of their own accord. The result may be a thoroughly hostile place to both debate and discussion, but it contains the most tedious garbage posters while being a big warning sign to everyone else. In that vein I really do think CZS and Fritz were perfect mods for D&D

I think its just Kaufman-esque dedication to the bit. But hey maybe I'm wrong, the net result is still the same. I don't see posters I like vanish for a week at a time anymore because they ran afoul of some tedious rules lawyer in D&D. Under the Koos regime they wisely stopped shouting at walls and moved on.
