Hi Julians, I heard you need a new mod and I'd like to throw my hat into the ring. First some background.

My favorite animes are Kill La Kill and Maid Dragon and my favorite scenes are the yabai ones. I regularly post the weirdest porn to twitter under my SA username. As far as moderation strategy goes, I aim to completely lose my poo poo at the mildest provocations, or sometimes without needing any at all, and any punishments I hand out will likely be arbitrary and unconscionable.

Let me know when I start.
sounds good to me

my opinion is that it doesnt really matter if theres a vtuber thread or not because its not like there arent five million other places to talk about vtubers. discord frankly seems like a much better avenue of discussion for something that is by definition happening live. if you cut out all the weird posts the old vtuber thread was mostly just stream links, gifs, and people failing to explain the political atmosphere of china. and it does seem pretty tangential to adtrw. i mean theyre japanese entertainers but the game center dx thread is in games. ig we have a toku thread in adtrw but thats pretty different. i really dunno why it cant be in rapidly going deaf.

also why isnt cuntellectual permabanned.

You're right. The discussion of a vtuber thread that was gassed in six minutes is too serious to be sullied by this talk.

I more meant the final straw being pointing out the number of banned pedophiles that have modded adtrw in the last few years.
gently caress off with this shtick. This whole 'I'm not touching you~' with pedophile accusations angle is loving disgusting and loathsome. If you think someone is a pedophile, just loving accuse them of it and say why. Pedophilia is far too serious an accusation to be used as leverage in whatever dumb forum war or petty ego game you're playing here. That's the part that's annoying me. I openly posted about not liking Wark from the moment the idea of him being made mod was floated, so I don't give a poo poo about him getting banned.

And also Wark is the only one. Since Zorak, the mods were Baal (quit because he got bored, is not banned), Seafood (quit because he didn't have time for it, is not banned,) Ryuko (was kicked out for having a meltdown about bad reviews of anime, is not banned, meltdown was entirely unrelated to any sort of pedophilia thing), and Julias (is currently mod and thus not banned.) People are mad at you because you're literally making poo poo up to try and cast serious accusations on other people. Julias is a poo poo mod who gave the vtuber thread way too much leeway, but there's zero reason to think he's a pedophile, and if you do think he is, just loving say so.

there's a broad range between 'people acknowledging that vox sounds hot' and 'marine and choco have a moaning competition'

it's almost like that's one of those problems that would've been solved with the thread having actual moderation to establish where that line is - and frankly the english talents by and large do a lot less stuff where the only punchline is a boner noise (vshojo notwithstanding)
buddy this post is an example of what people mean when they say 'vtuber posters are incapable of nto making the problem worse in their attempts at defense'

genuinely grouchio: the problem isnt you posting about fanservice or w/e, the problem is mostly you treating these forums like a space for you to put your completely unfiltered thoughts regardless of content, interest to other people, or relevancy to the topic at hand. stuff like you posting about corona in the anime forum or whatever is way worse than you posting about anime fanservice.

please just post about anime youre watching or w/e.

anyway look this poo poo is stupid because why do you guys even want the thread back that bad. theyre just streamers. theres not a ton to discuss other than weird gossip and stream updates. like when the thread was functioning normally there wasnt exactly a ton of discussion going on.

personally i think the mods really need to decide if being called a pedophile rapist without proof is or isnt punishable because they seriously seem to flip a coin to decide, but the vtuber thread is always going to be a problem because its already been decided to be one. the dreaded trolls aren't wrong in that a lot of the vtuber thread people are way too invested and lack self-awareness when it comes to this stuff, and also the thread's always going to be a subject of scrutiny. someone complained about reddit but it basically seems like you could get everything you were getting out of the sa vtuber thread there only with 10% of the drama. or make your own discord and bam you get to make the rules. it seems like a better avenue for discussing live streams anyway.

iunno what people are expecting to happen if the mods reopen the thread. even if you instantly kill anyone who goes 'lol' in the thread and even if you ban mockthreads theres still going to be people reading it and making fun of it in discord or PMs or something. you cant put the vtuber genie back in the bottle. just let it go. is it fair to the people who were normal? iunno. is it worth embarrassing yourselves over? no.

I guess I missed what bread and roses is, a splinter site like 4chan way back in the day? And they have a sex pest running the show?
it was a splinter site made because of D&D/cspam drama. It was meant to be a 'serious political forum' for active organization and canvassing. It promptly turned into a drama factory. I got banned from it for pointing out that their QCS equivalent had 10x the posts as the IRL organization forum. The guy who made it got run off his own site. Multiple mods/admins of it got accused of sex crimes, and there were giant dramatic power struggles/mod coups. And now near as I can tell it gets like two posts a day tops across the entire forum.
