Shakedown in Progress

[Jaded Optimist]

Can we also get a rule about armchair diagnosing cows? "[cow] has BPD/NPD" has become the new "Pixy is fat and I would not have sex with her." 3/4 of the time it's based off of one symptom, and unless the cow has been officially diagnosed with it it's just pointless commentary.

Please, please, please! It's one of the few rules that p.u.l.l has that I really like. I'm so sick of everyone saying Raven or the river kappa have BPD.

If tumblr side of things needed help, I'd nominate @Southern Belle if she was more active these days. She has a lot of knowledge and can do great digging .

@Null shit like this is what pisses me off about the CWC board the most. Everyone seems to think buying his eBay trash, yelling at him on Twitter (Hirtes), flagging his Etsy/Lulu/whatever store for copyright claims; sperging out in comments on a YouTube upload is going to trigger OPL. I'd gladly slap slap around people who think that's benefiting the CWC discussions.

In the future please don't reply to people who do shit like that and just report them. Replying with a report is obnoxious.

If that sort of thing is ignored and not dealt with, make a TTS thread. Bragging about trying to take down etsy pages and ebay auctions is actual weening.

Will do! Thanks for the input.

happy to see this, I used to spend a lot of time in the DSP thread but once he got a forum it became unbearable. several pages every day about how bad he is at games, and then when he actually does something it gets shoved aside into it's own thread making the core thread redundant and a dumping ground for a logs.

 

[SteelPlatedHeart]

Maybe for the Lolcow section, it be easier to just assign a “Thread Manager” or something like that? Someone who can kind of just keep an eyes on things for a few of the threads there instead of all of them? @Sexy Times Hitler and @Peace and Harmony essentially run the MovieBob and Brianna Wu threads respectively, keeping things on-track and being the unofficial screencappers for the thread. I kinda do the same for the Dobson thread, but I don’t really know if anyone who post there thinks of me that way.

I've noticed that a lot in the EvaXephon thead (I pretty much live in that thread), in fact the idiots on there were trying to talk about potential mental disorders RECENTLY.
I wish someone were there to throw them out of helicopters.

Maybe I'm just autistic, in fact I'm pretty sure it's just autism.

 

[AnOminous]

If we're going to be strictly modding the Russell Greer thread now, can we get a rewritten set of rules at the top? "Do not make a post just to insult Russell or call him a bamboon" "Do not ask for re-clarification on the Ariana trial/hit list/original whore lawsuit, go back and read the thread," et cetera. I'll admit to being one of the "mongoloids" who posts in there so I am not as irritated by it as some.

Would also be awesome if we could get a little picture of Russell holding up his Taylor Swift sign in the corner, except it says something like "follow the rules you fucking bamboon." Like the little screaming Sophie that was in the corner of her thread.

Maybe there should be something like a thread janitor for specific troublesome threads, who just has the power to issue a temporary threadban or something. Don't know if XenForo supports that.

Punish them by changing their avatar to this guy.

I could see about making something along those lines if it'll help the thread not devolved into mongoloid bullshit

 

[Meowthkip]

@Meowthkip Since Null doesn’t know what to think about tumblr, listing it as pink and all, what do you think of it at the moment?

The Tumblr board has been bleeding content, actually. Like Meowthkip mentioned, the Purplekeckleon thread was transferred to Animal Control recently (I saw it pop up the other day and was confused at first). Tumblr is dying, but the mentality cultivated by that site is very much alive and well like Xerxes said. The subforum itself is fine and is serving a purpose, but I think having it focus only on Tumblr is holding it back. Opening it up to all social media platforms and migrating in some of the threads from Lolcows who are predominately known for their antics on Twitter/Facebook/etc might give it new life.

I'm kind of torn on opening up the Tumblr subforum to other social media users, because on one hand there is definitely a Tumblr mentality that has carried on over to places like Twitter and proliferated, but on the other hand I treasure the rare Tumblr cows that completely go against the Tumblr stereotype, but they happen to be most active on Tumblr. I will always adore and treasure methed-up-samurai.

Yeah but the pink nail polish kinda ruins it for me, like damn dude you might as well get a tramp stamp and start hanging around at the street corner. @Meowthkip has some toes I wanna suck tho

No way, my toes are ugly and gross.

Hmm, we need eyes on the inside to find the juice? Has this been tried before, how well does it work? Seems like it could be hard when you're not actually into that shit. I'm not reliable but on the odd occasion, I might be in the mood to dive into something like this for whatever reason. But then if I haven't been in the damn place the whole time watching and keeping up those connections then I might not have anything interesting to dive into at all.

It works best when there's people inside of these little communities in Tumblr with ears to the ground who can find these rather exceptional individuals worthy of being the stars of their own thread. When you have people like Vade or Todokaras or Springtrapp as the bar for Tumblr craziness, that eliminates most run-of-the-mill bloggers and makes finding the really crazy bitches harder to find.

 

[Sicko Hunter]

I think some of you are misunderstanding the initial problem. There have been moderators who have disappeared for literal months with no word about what’s going on and when they’ll be back. For a regular user, that’s fine, but for someone who’s supposed to, you know, moderate, that’s a job not being done. It’s not about over moderating. It’s about having any moderation at all.

Yeah because you're all mainlining heroin and drinking yourselfs to death lmao

Personally I think it would be great for the site overall if people who brag about reporting Chris's auctions get threadbanned. It's literally on the list of rules the top of every page.

Same with people who brag about actually buying his junk.

 

[Alberto Balsalm]

I think a good compromise for the Tumblr forum would be allowing people who demonstrably have had a Tumblr presence at some point but are now most active on another site. A lot of people on there have flounced to other websites after getting caught up in drama, while refusing to discontinue the kind of behavior that made them lolcows in the first place. Todokaras is a good example of someone who only wasn't in the Tumblr section because she had been chased off to Twitter when we got to her.

You're a cool dude but I would want the responsibility bro

Frankly, even though I don't browse the Chris sub-forum a whole lot, wouldn't it be easier just to ban them outright from the sub-forum itself? And the even more troublesome just fully banned from the site as a whole?
