Metis of the Hallways posted:If you feel it is necessary and would help you, admins can also remove your access to this subforum. Looks pretty great overall. Are admins the only ones that can be talked to or can Mods/IKs be contacted to move the issue up the line? It might also help to include a link or email address to these people for people who don't have PMs.

VideoGames posted:I can promise I will be around to do this now, as the new Games admin. I am very contactable. If anyone is requiring their access to things being removed temporarily I can help out. I feel very strongly about addiction and the way games can be predatory nowadays and if I can help someone by removing temptation then I absolutely will do so. Thanks and congrats on your adminship.

I still don't really quite understand why the industry news thread needs to be an rss feed with no chat whatsoever, but if it's a bad fit for Video Games maybe it can join its sister thread and be moved to byob.

Stux posted:there can be discussion. however as u were probated in the thread for wildly speculating that the entire board of blizzard were pedophiles, its understandable that you would struggle with knowing what is and isnt appropriate behavior. If you actually looked at the post you'd've seen that I was not supporting the speculation happening, but was trying to shift the topic to something we did know and have verifiable proof of. Perhaps I can understand that the person who has a five page rap sheet of probes and bans might find some difficulty on this topic of appropriate behavior.

It was a joke, there's no need to move the thread. The Industry Thread is largely fine and all the stuff gets posted both there and in blizzlols so there's a place for more discussion if someone wants that, though I can understand why that place is a turn off to people who don't want all the conversations and irreverent attitude of that thread. Stux and 16bb seem to like it quite a bit seeing that they regularly post there too.

studio mujahideen posted:seems like its been fairly normal recently? That's because you're not noticing the speculation posts about the Blizzard/China news and chat-like posting about the HBomb video going on in there, which is the type of stuff people mostly dislike about that thread. Are those posts being reported on and not acted on? It's been less than 24 hours since the first post with speculation was made so is that too long to have been kept up?

Get rid of the bad posters who are telling people to shoot themselves in the head or walk onto Thomas the Tank Engine's track, too. This isn't an either/or situation here.

Like that kind of lovely post is unneeded. It just reads like childish dancing around "well I'm not actually saying anything bad because I'm referencing a video game or cartoon." gently caress off with that. That adds nothing to a conversation except trying to hide that you're making a lovely post about someone dying or killing themselves.

John Murdoch posted:The ole "I'm gonna goomba stomp you and after you get squashed into a pancake you'll fall off the screen and I'll get 100 points" bit can be pretty fun. This sort of thing is funny maybe when you're doing it with a friend, but if you're using it against someone whose posts you dislike then there's really no difference except one sounds like a child who thinks they're getting away with something because they're following the technical reading of the rules. Showing contempt for another person because they have different opinions than you in Pokemon or God of War or whatever is just as bad to read whether they say you should meet your violent end by their next door neighbor or by Phoenix Wright with a squeaky hammer. Negativity or positivity shouldn't be something that needs policing and if you see the problem is a person or people posting one over the other and you turn it into an argument rather than ignoring them or having a discussion about it, then that's the problem. If you want to make fun of someone because they make long and/or repeatedly lovely posts, then make fun of them for that. Don't tell them you hope they get kidnapped and harvested for their organs in Minecraft.

Stux posted:also obviously goes without saying, the idea that saying "die!!!!!!" or describing tom and jerry looney tunes violence or even frankly saying "im going to shoot you with my gun" is the same as telling someone to kill themselves, is frankly disgusting I mean, I feel like it's pretty clear that you personally don't have a problem with it and the fact that you can't understand the connection between those things is understandable because you have that disconnect and are unable to empathize with the position that other people might be disturbed by your associating cartoons with harm towards other people and trying to normalize that as non-weird behavior. But also I expect you'll respond to this with a pithy comment or a flood of gifs or whatever to show how much you don't care. That's clear. You don't care. You don't see other people as people. And that's sad. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Posts that normalize being lovely to other people is the problem. Please punish those posts. I'm not calling the people making those posts psychopaths, I'm saying the posts do not belong here.
