after glassing gbs and all the bigots and ironic bigots that infest the place we might even be able to try bringing back fyad

I looked at the GBS thread and, uh, wow. That sure is some posting. The FYAD refugees are fitting in maybe a little too well

so LK touched on something a few pages ago re: punishing goons for poo poo they do off site which i think needs to be addressed going forward after the E/N drama and now this drama since they're apparently both related in that aspect so here's my suggestions on that.

1) don't go after people for off site stuff*. if they're being a loving nazi off site but polite here then honestly, knowing nazis, that can only last so long before they start talking about 14 words and poo poo and then by all means ban hammer their rear end.

2) *the exception to (1) is that if someone PM or emails a mod info about someone doing actual illegal poo poo or threatening the welfare of other posters here on an off site venue then it's the/a mods responsibility to investigate and take action. also reversal or fortune should apply in that if someone makes up fake information to go after a forums enemy then it's a 100% permaban for the person reporting them.

if you have information regarding illegal poo poo you should probably tell the actual police, not the moderator of an internet message board

The fact mods have admitted to trying to overlook the userbase in offsites and have gathered data to that effect is deeply off. They should in no way be doing this, no matter how good the intention is. Their job is to focus on this site and this site only. Every admin and mod complicit in this needs to formally and unreserved apologise and resign.

What an absolute clusterfuck the last month has been all round

FYAD posters after Lowtax goes on a crazy banning spree on NYE: lol he�s the site owner he can do what he wants. Who cares? The fact that this site is run by a guy who just does poo poo sometimes is part of the appeal.

FYAD posters after Lowtax closes FYAD: Unbelievable. A sign of the times. What has this place come to?

Oh yeah, and as always when something bad happens there are people pointing out that this is obviously Koalas March�s fault and all the mods and admins are under her command, please ignore the last month of her fighting against Lowtax and the gang in the push to get FYAD taken care of.

we aren't children and we don't need condescending authoritarian figures deciding what is best for us and what is need-to-know only and hatching the dumbest loving schemes imaginable without anyone else getting to provide any insight

for real cspam needs to unite behind the idea that mods should be 100% transparent through every step of their process (at least w/r/t cspam actions) and that, if the mods really "want to be members of a great community full of funny, intelligent people" they need to accept that they aren't special internet cops, they're just other 30-40 year old nerds that have been given a few extra buttons on their forums gui

how the gently caress can anyone be okay with mods continuing to act like some untouchable class of super humans that owe the rest of us neither respect nor explanation

Sure would be nice to have an admin or just anyone with some semblance of authority, really, that the forums could trust open a dialogue!

No, no, let's keep going with complete opacity, knee-jerk punishments with no justification, closing threads, refusing to respond, promises of future transparency that are universally disregarded, posts that say that a consensus response is being gathered and will be posted later, and occasionally making announcements that cannot be replied to. It's worked so well to create hilarious content before that it seems worth sticking with it.
