Ask mods a question. - A genuine thread

[0 0]

I feel Talk To Staff is a bit too stuffy for some people feeling comfortable asking small or simple questions to moderators, and I also believe there could be some more levity between staff and users.

Try to avoid using this to interrogate about moderation decisions, like "Why was I banned?" since that's something that genuinely should be handled in Talk To Staff. Threads posted there will be treated with more urgency and seriousness. Generally.

Use this thread to ask us questions, serious or not, and we'll answer them accordingly to whimsy.

Extremely weird and out of character from the interactions I've had with him before, which have always been courteous and polite.
Why he decided to be a fucking massive douche about something so trivial is his prerogative, but it's still odd as fuck.
I always thought he was a pretty nice fella from the few times I talked to him. I guess that's on me for being a poor judge of character.

I'm gonna be completely honest with you here.

While Null can be quick to anger, and even an asshole sometimes, I think his rejection of your request to change your username to that of a woman who is serving 20 years in prison for child sex trafficking is completely defensible.

The 9000 Null theory holds true

It's just crazy. These fucking mods are on walkabout, running their mouth behind a veil of anonymity. That's coward shit.
I've never taken a course on business in my life, but I'm pretty sure that one of the first lessons is that you don't act like a gaping axe wound of a twat to somebody who's putting money in your boss's pockets.
Even just a DM real quick that takes 10 seconds with talk to text to say "Hey, we don't encourage people to change their names and this is why" would suffice. Instead you have to deal with fucking snarky teenage girl bullshit every time you have a request.

have you tried dying mad about it? I hear that works

People who type in Trooncase (all lowercase) say they do it to show how much they don't care but when you call it Trooncase they get all upset and cry that they're gonna get a second axe wound because someone on the internet did a hecking unwholesome transphobiaerino.

...wait, I've been typing in TROONCASE this whole time???

hahahahahaha
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha


...whew
that is fucking hilarious. I did not know that was a troon thing, I literally thought it was just some kind of basic 'site etiquette around here
now I'm going to do it even harder just for shits

Yeah that's a bad business model.
It's okay though I guess everyone has a bad day, and apparently my request annoyed the fuck out of him. I'm not pressed about it, I just get a little irritated myself when people talk to me sideways and disrespectfully when I haven't done anything to them.

I'm gonna be blunt, don't be surprised when the guy that constantly insults people insults you.

Null acts this way because he knows he can, I'll give an analogy: There are a lot of streamers that single out a person in chat to insult them for no reason, and all the audience think it's hilarious until it happens to them, you probably saw Null being spergy and antagonistic plenty of times, you thought it was funny when you were part of the audience, but now that you are the content you no longer think it's funny, it would be like being a tier 3 twitch sub ($24.99) to Gordon Ramsay and being surprised when he insults you, oh well.

yes it's funny when Null goes off on people, and shit, Null went off on ME once over the "Woman-Hate" thread and it was EVEN FUNNIER

as long as I don't get banned this site is the funniest goddamn thing on the internet, ESPECIALLY when Jersh gets pissed off

streamers

mods, please bully this man to death

Two things to say about that though: there is literally already somebody named Ghislaine Maxwell on here, and secondly I think my personality and constant goofposting has already proved that it's an obvious joke.
But hey I mean it's his website so it's his prerogative. I guess I'm Lip Glossary.

 

[Waffle Iron]

Don't be mad Null shits on you, be happy Null noticed you .

The guy lost a chance at living a normal life because payment processors and insane trannies decided he would get banned from participating in the world, all became he runs some internet gossip site. He isn't running guns to African warlords, he isn't poisoning millions with processed foods, he isn't turning people into debtslaves with predatory loans, he didn't rape a bunch of underage girls on some exclusive island, no, he just decided to say no to censorship.
Why try to be polite when everyone abandoned you, he is now free to say nigger over and over and over again without them being able to take anything else, he's sure as well going to do that.

Why are people with loli pfps not automatically banned from this site.

Like who?

Genuine question: why do moderators have to be such fucking assholes to reasonable requests?

View attachment 8498630

A simple "no" would suffice. I pay $25 a month to this website just because I like the concept of it, and I have to have some anonymous cocksucker show me how much cock they suck whenever I have a reasonable request that they choose to ignore.
It's fucking stupid. So whoever that was, there goes my money for the month of February. You can go fuck yourself, and you just cost Null $25 dollars with your shitty faggot attitude.
Give yourself a round of applause ass hole, You're the reason Nulls not getting his $25 dollars this month.

Moderators aren't responsible for name changes. Null is. You're yelling at moderators for something they didn't do.

If you are disgruntled, a more appropriate forum would be the Talk To Staff section rather than in a public thread. You are more likely to get a direct response, a possible explanation, and a dialogue.

If you explain you are a supporter and feel you should receive a name change he rejected, I would say you are vindicated if he still turns it down.

It's all good fella, I'm just more testy than usual because I'm tapering off soda. Sorry about losing it, I've been on a hair trigger the past couple of days because I'm getting off my high fructose corn syrup addiction.

All of them. Make it happen! Press ze button! Save the world!

I was in a bad mood, I realized I was overreacting so I took responsibility for it and apologized.
It's called being a man and acting like an adult, it's nothing to be ashamed of. You should try it sometime.

Since you're a "Global Moderator," does that mean that you could regulate all threads as you see fit (i.e., reports, threadbans, appeals?) I remember there were Thunderdome mods, which I assumed their moderation powers were limited to that section?

Sorry next time i'll represent you as a soyjak. Is this more to your liking?

 

[Agamemnon Busmalis]

I think would be fair to give A&N and Happenings to Safir and myself as jannies.

It could be even be a socialist sitcom, "The Perfect Couple"

Yes. I can moderate any forum, including the boards specific to supporters and moderators.

Do Moderators look at some sort of all in one post or thread aggregator?

It's a special system. I only censored the profiles of users in this image, but this is the current moderation queue.



This isn't any secret, even though normal users don't have access to it. This is how Xenforo's moderation features function.

https://xenforo.com/features/moderation/

Most of the forum's functionality is copied from Xenforo. It isn't a beat-for-beat cloning, I believe, though. Just a thorough replication.

This also isn't some secret, as Null gave updates on his efforts to replicate Xenforo software before the overhaul around two years ago.
