Not just DF, folder campers in general. The complaints all along have fallen one either side of a fault line - either the DF is a toxic cesspit of trolls, or the DF isn't being allowed to be the DF, but that is indicative of folder camping in general. The IBers that flocked over to Discord aren't any less "toxic" there even with the absences of the DFers, and that is to say that its not toxicity at all as much as belief that moderation is suppressing the individual clique dynamics that tend to pollute shared topic. The fact is, there are distinct groups in the Noise section in particular that feel either moderation is unfair/uneven or that in general they are being suppressed. This isn't a problem with Toonami who continues to be its own unique entity attached to a very particular topic and who doesn't expect the same kind of freedoms that make the Pod 6 and IB cliques unique. The club system is the best way for the DF to continue to have a place where the rules are specific to that folder.

Really, though, how is it different? The only thing is the DF was moved over to Thunderdome, and that was a necessity to allow Pooh control over it. The other folders are just equal replacement that more accurately describe what's in them.

There is a plan. The problem was that there were a bunch of relatively low traffic boards that were cluttering up the top end, so the consolidation was designed to combine topics based on the relative proximity. Sports didn't serve much of a purpose outside of the same three or four threads and, due to the universality of sports, it made more sense to include those in GD where it would likely get better exposure. Art's, Literature and Music had barely ant traffic so it was best to combine those. Food was pretty much Disco and Packard's food disasters. [adult swim] has so little to offer it doesn't really deserve a separate board, but the people who are most likely to be interested in [adult swim] shows are either a few of us in the Thunderdome or the Toonamites, so it makes the most sense to to merge Toonami with [as] and we can do our own DF take in the dome. There is a huge difference between a plan and success, obviously. Like you said yourself, this board has enough people that an wide open single board like Prospero might even be ideal. It's not really feasible to go that far back but reducing the boards makes the place a lot less unwieldy, and we have time to see how it works in this format. We can always add stuff back as needed, but it's not like we diverged from the existing predominant posting patterns to get here.

Very sleek and fat did the cat appear, and sonorous with purring content.

I know about the PM. Liars tell stories that sound good. They also know how to set stories up to make them more believable. Remember that thread about the cartel daughter? What are the chances you're hooking up with someone who's supposedly connected to a cartel only to, days later, be potentially kidnapped by someone in a cartel? I'm sure you have a perfectly plausible explanation. What you don't seem to get is that people aren't mad about Fuggs or about your inept attempt to make her seem like a legitimate nurse, they're mad because it's indicative of your attempts to manipulate them for attention. Fuggs has nothing to do with your story having holes in it, but you're reaction to her and is tells us everything we need to know about why those holes are there. -

Lol. No. Literally the reason I think you made shit up is because that long post I cut and pasted in the report was deleted by you. I mean, sure, you sneaking Fuggs here so you can pull a stunt doesn't help your believability, but you refusing to own what you told us unprovoked is what matters most. There was no dude pretending to be trans. You didn't unwittingly take a speedball. There was no attempt to kidnap you and send you to Mexico to be a cartel sex slave. It was all a spin on a bad trip. -
Wait, how old are her kids?

Well, those questions beg for the wrong kind of response.

Probably because either a cop was on trial or was the “victim.” They intentionally don’t ask that question so potential jurors can’t pollute the pool.

It only doesn't make sense because I don't think a lot of people use the feed feature to its maximum benefit. -
It doesn't work anyway. They don't ask your opinions.

I could write a symposium on how dysfunctional it is here.

Prospero was one big board, and it was pretty good until we got too many people. -

You can’t have real friends when you’re constantly trying to manipulate them. -

Those people you claimed were cartel when they probably weren't wasn't "nothing." Nabs is a worthless leech, but he's not wrong: I could have sent a bunch of ICE agents after some guys just because you can't handle your shit and made a wild accusation. -

You screwed us all over, and it has nothing to do with your pal Fuggs. -

Instead of bothering Pat with your inane questions, @Nablonsky, why don't you just archive all your greatest hits now? Nothings stopping you, you know. -
Chill. I'm happy for the dude no matter what happened. I don't even need the deets - as long as he had a great time, I'm cool with it.

Well, I mean it has to be worth the wait.

Ghosty doesn't dismember his friends.

Exactly, you never mix business with pleasure. So, did you pack her pita with your sausage?

She had meat in her mouth all night long.

There you go.

In Los Angeles no less, as does Chevron. And, they do in fact sell to other brands for a multitude of reasons, not the least of which is proximity and local fuel requirements. The point is that multiple stations generally get fuel from the same refinery, which means that cost is shared across multiple stations, making the individual discrepancies localized as opposed to systematic. Where a station is on a delivery route is a factor, as well as the rent on the particular plot.

Will Smith absolutely faced consequences. And all that's fine if you're going to comedy show, not the Academy Awards. He wasn't on stage for a comedy set, he was on stage to present an award. He contributed to that moment being ruined by making the joke in the first place and he exposed a whole lot of people not just in attendance but watching on TV to a joke they were not there to hear. Edit: Also, you don't get to kill this debate just because you're not willing to budge on your point.
