I wish people would stop being mad about Fluffdaddy. He might not fully "get" V-Tubers, but he doesn't have any personal grudges against you all, and he isn't beholden to anything QCS tells him to do. He's trying to help make this thread and SA a more welcoming environment for people, and I feel bad that people are taking all of this as "just concern trolling". Yes, there are people who are posting about this, mad because they just hate all anime or want some good lulz so they pick on an easy target, but there are genuine concerns from a lot of posters, not just those that you see in QCS, and wanting to implement stricter rules was my idea, because I think it will lead to a healthier thread environment overall.

This thread can't stop touching the poop so it's pretty pointless now tbh. Used to be a good place to go to chill out but it's not really good for that anymore and hasn't been for months. Everytime it starts to calm down it starts up again.

I agree with you overall. Though I don't think you will deny that a few people over in QCS were assholes about this.

I also agree that people were being too hard on Fluffdaddy.

People are understandably on the defensive over the mess that this thread has been over the last monthish (a lot of it being the trolls, but certainly not all.) I mean that latest QCS thread was a suddenly active account that had been dead for over a year and there's a bunch of forums staff misrepresenting how bad it is over there as well.

People jumped on Fluffdaddy as a representation of that. Fluffdaddy is obviously trying to help and I'm hoping they and Julias will find a better way to handle the issues we've had (from both inside and outside of the thread.)

my only problem is that brunom's 3-day is a lot for what was an injoke rather than actually being horny

to those of you that simply must yell hornily in public it's as easy as doing it anywhere else, you should know how something awful at large takes it by now, which is an entirely different discussion not worth having in the context of anime streamers

Any rules you come up with are just going to be obliquely abused by outsiders and drivebys again, both the obvious ones you already noticed and more subtle ones that seem to be 'good faith posters.' The time for effective moderation was months ago, and the scale was the entire site, not just one thread, because there are actively people who want to just cause damage for fun.

There's no way you're going to have this topic be acceptable to these outside influences, and you're going to perpetually be three moves behind until the topic is banned forumwide.

point of order, fluffdaddy didn't characterize them as children at any point. the closest was 'yeah if someone is clearly operating a child character and being hyper horny don't post about them'

There's no way you're going to have this topic be acceptable to these outside influences, and you're going to perpetually be three moves behind until the topic is banned forumwide.

But like... who cares about what people who drop in, post "CAN YOU SHOW ANIME FEET TO ME" and then laugh to themselves about how they owned all the posters think? How are they actually disrupting things? Everyone knows they're acting in bad faith, no one obliges, no one even gives a poo poo or replies.

This is a gigantic cultural phenomenon very linked to anime, and besides the simple fact that it's popular and talked about everywhere, that also means it'd be downright stupid for there not to be discussion of it in the anime forum. Acting drastically and defensively because a few people have decided to make it their forum duty to stop discussion of it is just bizarre. What are we, a loving school board? Does everyone have to post in QCS now or otherwise only the strangest people with incomprehensible vendettas will have their viewpoints considered?

Who's this Little

I'm mostly bothered by how the crux of Fluff's (and all that QCS thread's) point is NOT just, "ban the horny." No no no! Their point has been "the whole thread should be banned, because none of them are free of sin." We're all getting lumped in with Dongicus, who is universally despised in this thread and is ALREADY threadbanned and constantly being probated for breaking the threadban/being horny.

We're already doing a decent job of self policing. The worst posters in here are consistently probated and asked to leave. But these trolls are coming in here, pointing at folks who were already punished for their posts, and saying "the whole thread needs to go! Look at these bad posts! And please ignore that the bad posts were already moderated." It's disingenuous, hypocritical, and mean spirited.
