I think having a 24/7 thread whose discussion revolves around a company's culture of rape and abuse and a hope for its downfall isn't very healthy for a poster's brain, especially when it becomes a community identity and the IK is someone who seems emotionally unwell with constant self-hatred Maybe a thread like that should stay closed until there's news to discuss, instead of ruminating and seeking out every single bit of bad news to feed an outrage addiction; it makes for people who are useless in fighting cultures of abuse

It basically turned into a place to lament how we all used to play WoW but hated the direction the company had gone in and how terrible things are right now. The lawsuit wasn't even known before it got moved to Games. Like literally just a refugee place of people who escaped the addiction of playing WoW.

Nephrite posted:Okay, I'll bite. Don't worry the most vocal minority is busy making snotty replies explaining that slurs are totally normal in CCCC, so threadshitting accusations are considerably lower on the list of priorities and probably well below trying to normalize cartoon teachers flirting with kids

So... a thread for whose discussion revolves around a company's culture of rape and abuse and a hope for its downfall? EDIT: Oh, alright. Feedback given and done.

Both Stux and Endorph are extremely earnest most of the time, like outside of what are obvious joke posts. e:whoops just saw mod message.

Boba Pearl posted:I will say that I got Dongicus confused with another poster, and I was wrong. I didn't mean for what I said to come off the way it did, but I am really sorry that I had said it, if I worded what I had said differently, then maybe Dongicus would have had a chance to defend himself, and it wouldn't have gone on like this for this long. I'd message him an apology but he doesn't have PMs. Instead of rehashing my problems with that poster and souring what is an apology, I will simply say that I hosed up, what I said wasn't cool, and I think he/she/they are correct that there was a million better ways to have said what I was trying to say. Seeing other people read it the same way Dongicus did recontextualizes it for me, because to me it just seemed like they were trying to find an inroad to dismiss what I said, but if so many people saw it as an accusation that he's rapist, then that means my ability to communicate has failed. I don't know where to post this where they would see it, and they don't have PMs. I don't know if they want an apology at all, but I didn't feel right not saying that I had hosed up, and should have chosen my words better. aye its no problem, think most of the issue for me i think was the IK and other people in the thread being morons. just mind next time to click the '?' button in threads to try and get context for any jokes or w/e e: genuinely appreciate that btw.

most of this was already covered but i want to talk about a few things myself imo thread bans do not work and they lead to absurd situations like someone eating a longer probation than the person actually posting stupid or offensive poo poo because they commented on a stupid post comparing mild griefing to rape. imo a poster should be punished for the posts they have made not because they broke some arbitrary rule about posting in a thread after an IK or mod told them not to post in it. hell... i actually forgot about blizzwatch for a while until i logged on and saw i had been given a day long prob for making fun of that post a day after i had already made it and waited out my sixer. as for the blizzwatch thread itself. i PM'd Harrow my thoughts on the matter a few days ago don't know if he read or not and don't care because it wasn't an obligation for them to read it or anything i just wanted to post my thoughts about it while on probation. so i'll just give the short version of what I wrote. mock threads suck. they are only funny for a week or two and once stuff to make fun of runs out it either becomes a creepy cespool of goons stalking people like the star citizen subforum or reposting the same unfunny joke over and over like the doobie threads. chat threads suck too for the similar reasons because they form their own insular communities that are hostile to outsiders because they have grown accustomed to any weird behavior of regular posters in their threads my final thoughts are that thread IKs are kinda not a good idea unless its the politics forums where slapfights are a common occurance. if a thread needs a dedicated IK just to moderate it then the mods need to evaluate the thread and decide if the thread is really worth having around imo. 16-bit Butt-Head fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Sep 11, 2021 |

Thanks for keeping things mostly on track, everyone, and thanks to Athanatos and Metis for stepping in to guide things too. I am very tired and going to bed but I'll catch up and read what people posted in more detail tomorrow.Meloncholric posted:as for the blizzwatch thread itself. i PM'd Harrow my thoughts on the matter a few days ago don't know if he read or not and don't care because it wasn't an obligation for them to read it or anything i just wanted to post my thoughts about it while on probation. so i'll just give the short version of what I wrote. mock threads suck. they are only funny for a week or two and once stuff to make fun of runs out it either becomes a creepy cespool of goons stalking people like the star citizen subforum or reposting the same unfunny joke over and over like the doobie threads. chat threads suck too for the similar reasons because they form their own insular communities that are hostile to outsiders because they have grown accustomed to any weird behavior of regular posters in their threads I did read the PM, and shared the feedback with other Games mods. I've been trying to think of what's best for Games and what's best for Blizzwatch for a few days now so I appreciated the input. Meant to reply but I've had an unusually large number of PMs lately so it slipped

Ultimately the decision ended up not really being mine to make on what to do to keep Games and Blizzwatch both going well but, well, I think the move back to CCCC seems like the closest to making everyone happy we were probably going to get.
