Selecting a Despot for the Autism Thunderdome

[TimeTravel_0]

Not nearly as homosexual as crying to an A&H mod because someone called you a queer and hurt your reddit karma. I think it's worth letting the world know which posters are very, very serious about their internet good boy points.

Ironic because I have seen you do exactly that before.

@Null you can hire me I don't mind the spurgfest and I will do what I can to support this forum

What happened to this thread overnight has clued me into the real problem:

that all these losers had nothing better to do on a Saturday night

I've never done that so it's not my problem, and I still think it's gay.

I'm going to ask you to find it, quote it, and point it out, and you're not going to be able to find it. Then I'm going to ask you to do it again, and you're going to ignore the post. Then I'll ask one last time, and you'll spasm some of the same retarded persecution complex shit you've been on for a ways because you take things on the internet very seriously.

It's a problem for the jannies, and part of why they never stay on long. Now, having a wild wild west is certainly fun in and of itself, but that's evidently not what's in demand. You need some means of getting people to not waste the broom-tribe's time, and preying on their facile need for validation and cred on a forum about laughing at fat retards is one such way to save the frayed nerves of our janitorial staff.

You got me banned for giving you dumb stickers in the abortion thread.

I've been thinking a bit about this. I have some ideas on how the nuclear option might be avoided.

A) Schizo-reactionarism needs to go. There's no value added to a community that can only say every mass shooting is a glow-op and it causes too much problems.

B) Informative Posters need to be valued. If you post links, videos, photos and extra info often, in my eyes you are more valuable that just text posters. If there's a dispute, the informative poster should be valued.

C) Use lower signal-to noise ration to measure success. I should be able to click the "next highlight" a couple of times to get valuable info.. If there is useless, and not informative posts in such a quantity that highlights don't work then the mods should act.

D) Choose someone who is ruthless for a determined amount of time.. I don't think the gradual approach will work. Either they comply and becoe informative and not-schizo rambling infighters or they are out. After a while of ruthlesness the comunity will be easier to handle and the mods can just cruise.

A) Schizo-reactionarism needs to go.

Last time I was in AH, people were just nodding their head and spewing memes about glowies for a whole page as if it means something. How!? For me to care, someone would have to post a list of previous reasonably confirmed glowie incidents, or else post a very compelling infographic that's like one of those walls with the red string on it. Those are at least interesting.

I miss 2010, where if you met a hardcore conspiracy theorist online, most of them were well educated in their positions. If they didn't have original research where they felt like they connected another dot, they could at least summarize from 5 different sources they read about, to give you an interesting report.

Just surface level mentioning of "glowies" isn't content. It's either part of a meme addiction to where someone has the attention span of a 15 year old on tiktok and needs to go outside, or it's just a mental illness at this point.

I hate "memephrasers" in places like A&H... SO MUCH

"The industrial revolution and it's consequences" Stop pretending like you've read the entire unabomber manifesto. Your addiction to scrolling all day makes you a slave of technology.

"[do X] in minecraft" Why say "in minecraft" to be safe, when you could have just said nothing at all? No, not because I'm scared of feds, just annoyed because you added nothing to the discussion.

"lololol fedpost?" I hate all the reactions to "in minecraft" posts or all other politically extremist posts of a similar attitude. It feels like kids in 4th grade trying to say bad words louder and louder. Ban all immature limit-pushers, because they clearly have zero respect for the place in which they are posting.

 

[MarvinTheParanoidAndroid]

Oh, and they've started madrating my posts. Way to prove my point, dumbshits.

Man imagine complaining about stickers, what a pussy.

 

[Rich Evans Ayypologist]

You got me banned for giving you dumb stickers in the abortion thread.

I did? Find me the message. I fully invite the janitorial staff to post my full and complete record of reports, either on this account or my original, so you can see that I called some people nohull socks before I learned to love that beautiful, beautiful man.

No-one should get banned in that containment thread for anything. It's literally just a wasteland to go in and poke with a stick, lol.

 

[Meth Until Death]

A&Ners will often shit talk people but then not tag them because they're huge pussies. They talk about me in threads all the time but rarely tag me

Because you're really, really, really fuckin' boring mate. Someone made up a script based off your replies. You're just so fuckin' lame. Smack back a bit of shard, root a roo and get creative *sniffs peddy* tanks for coming to my dreamtime talk, don't make me smack you cuz

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL IT ACTUALLY CARES ABOUT RATINGS.

Children, pay close attention. This is how you erase your credibility in a single post.

Then dont bother reading it
I get the fact that there is levels of autism in Happenstance/news that can only be measured in the galactic sense however though it has provided an invaluable amount of information as well. Sometimes you just have to dig through the mountains of autistic shit to get to it

 

[LeChampion1992]

If you talk shit about someone, tag them, or you're a huge pussy who is afraid of a random person over the internet


We have our slapfights, but I will give you props for not being a pussy

I'm the future of America a spic retard.

 

[mold]

so again I'm going to spell this out *again* for you children

moderation is necessary because otherwise forums become unusable due to first to spam and secondarily due to brigading which often involves illegal material being posted that Null must remove and also will ruin your day if you see it (not you, sir, you are a tough internet guy who can handle it, yes, no need to tell us all, I'm talking about all those other pansies, let's move on)

whiny bitches clog things up. you make it so much harder for the mods to do their necessary job that *many many many* times in all of our internet lives forums have shuttered because mods can't be found who are willing to wade through report queues that are 80-90% fee-fees to 10-20% CP and spam.

Nearly every single fucking complaint you people have with A&H can be solved by the magic of not fucking reading what is bothering you. Nearly every single solution that has been proferred involves more work for more mods.

Reading about what really happened with the stickers has made me fine with losing A&H, you people are cancer.

Crazy and funny of a person as he is, it's why folks like @Drain Todger are worthwhile in that sphere of screaming at the clouds. Plus, he can laugh at himself!

You know what you did bitch.

You've got me; I go into that containment thread to rile people up from time to time. It's like taking candy from an aborted baby.
But I'm afraid you're otherwise just showing off that facebook-boomer persecution complex right here right now.

 

[Blewberry Nausea]

If Null doesn't like it, he needs to just nuke the Thunderdome and be done with it or just start handing out the bans. Which he hasn't done.

It sounds like what he doesn't like is faggots bothering him over hurt fee fees. Which seem to actually be the other side based on how many people in this thread treat posters they don't like that are mostly contained in a separate area as an existential crisis instead of just FUCKING IGNORING THEM.

For how much people act like Thunderdome has turned the rest of the site into a fucking pol cesspool, I haven't seen it at all. Now it's not like I'm going to EVERY lolcow thread, but the ones I go to? Nah, it's not that bad. And I haven't seen anything in here that shows me otherwise. All I see is thin skinned users crying that people they don't like say things they don't like and they need to go.

I don’t want to censor people like @White_N or @Feline Supremacist just because they may not be politically similar to me or that they shitpost. And you’re right I shouldn’t speak for null like I am a mind reader. I just wish the shitposting involved EFFORT. They clown on ukirbros in hilarious ways that make the board fun. But too many posters think posting ‘you retard obviously Soros eats kids’ or ‘lol pro lifers all care about babies until they are born’ and it is useless and dumb. You wanna talk about thin skinned? What about a board of users who refuse to allow dissent?

And I get it you got kicked out of reddit (which you don’t like anyway so who cares), twitter (same), and other SM. The response isn’t to hermit together and pod people screech when someone wants to discuss red flag laws. Or if you want that well like I said /pol/. This isn’t a hugbox for anyone it is a place to laugh at retards. And retards exist on all sides.

You are bringing up a problem that KF hasn’t and probably won’t experience because this site is so anathema to the woke left all you get is a few people who are nominally towards liberal ideas but got left behind by people supporting HRT for eight year olds and whites kneeling for BLM. I have learned a lot of context from the good posters who are RW in AT and that should be the point, to hear a different side, consider the sources they offer, and reply accordingly. If you just boiler plate “Believe all wahmen you assholes” or “gtfo back to reddit” then you are just wasting time.

If you feel that is an attack on you or your ability to express yourself, consider why that is. I am not asking you to question whether drag queen story hour might be okay, I am asking you to question what brought someone you disagree with to that conclusion beyond ‘npc shill faggot tranny kys’ Posting is a privilege and I know that well and people are abusing it.

What the fuck are you even talking about. The point is that the reactions A&N are giving each other prove it's a circlejerk. Whatever retarded point you're trying to make about me isn't even worth figuring out.

So what you're saying is that open discussion is a zero sum game where being the majority voice is all that matters?

If it's not moderated properly, that's what happens. Every fucking time. Some clique will take the place over and their numbers will make it so exhausting to argue with them that people stop bothering and it becomes a hugbox. There's an irony that free discussion requires active moderation, but those are just the dynamics of forums.
