I think it’s a matter of “how lax should we be” vs. a few people going “how far can we push them” but I’ll probably get grief over that. Either way, it does need some re-thinking done. The big “lax” thing we do is continuing to allow permabanned users who do nothing but start drama back.  Remove the toxicity so new users aren’t put off.

and honestly, I can go back to not engaging in it. The issue here is that it kind of started because I got sucked into it because I was, well, moderating.

i didn't have the ambition to find a nicer way of saying it at the time, but yeah that's pretty much what i was implying. the moderation here is visible and it's generally pretty swift. it's just ... i dunno, set to "comfortable" instead of "tight" or something like that.

i'm not complaining, but i do see the point of some people saying it's too wild to try bringing in new users. but that's something that can be easily remedied. might mean we lose a couple people who drive clicks, but it probably would have happened anyway under the Old Rule so whatever.

You are a mod for a reason. Your judgment is good. At the same time, you have as much right as anyone else to just shoot the shit. And you do let shit slide in order to appear as not a mod, but just another member. Which is cool. And under-appreciated. Those that you ban, have pushed the limit too far. I have seen you give verbal warnings, time and time again, and when those don't work, there's nothing left to do but ban them. They asked for it. Pat banned me once, and I earned it. No hard feelings at all. I said shit I shouldn't have said and got banned. I should have. It was actually relieving that I got one, because it instilled that sense of fairness to me. I have no problems with the job any of the mods are doing. This place is pretty fun.

There are always going to be people in a community this size causing issues, moderators wouldn't be a thing in online communities if they weren't. I think you should stop second guessing yourself because you can't satisfy everyone. What some might consider lax, others might consider fair and offering chances for people to change or at least temper their behaviour to acceptable norms. 

Well I already know I can’t appease to everyone xD

I am the type who will tell you to your face that you’re in the wrong before just tossing out warnings or bans though.

In any case, Dumpster Fires needs to be harder to get in to than a couple hundred posts. New users need to be very used to the community before being thrown into that heehawed fuckpile.

pc. but know i know there's a 'that old version' button, 

i'll get my better 'readers' out

xD

I think this weekend sometime I will host a game, but some point before that I can get you set up if you need it. Once you’re logged in it’s pretty straight forward, usually the link I post takes you directly to my game’s password prompt (after you click “Old Version” and put in a nickname) but sometimes it derps and you have to click the proper server and find my game xD

If you guys want to integrate the Discord community here I can help with that most likely let me know. I need to do some work on the Discord bots anyways, I'm not satisfied with what is there. I've not restricted anyone from joining either beyond violating the same rules KN laid out here. I would add that the Discord community already has at least a small handful of members that aren't originally from here so there may be something to your assertion.

We can definitely add discord integration to the site here.

I will permanently ban you if you keep that shit up much longer.

Most people do not understand you're trolling them and are seriously concerned.

I know that's the point but... enough.

Bnmjy got a temporary post ban, I didn’t really “end” him but after seeing what went down in that thread from a brand new user it made me very uneasy so I had to let him know I wasn’t fucking around.

It is the actions of the user both previously and currently, as well as the context behind those two words that matter. 

Are you writing a biography about me or something? 😸

You guys have no chill atm. Relax... "Giggle chills" is hardly permaban material. 🙈

Correct, except in your case it can be.

The context you perceive it to be in has no basis in reality. Point blank bang bang, but I don't get why you guys are so wired up over this. 🤷‍♂️

Saying you're getting the "Giggle Chills" over young girls is creepy as fuck. Borderline illegal, without the use of the one word you always use with it, ''legal.'' 

Saying "Giggle Chills" for everyone else is acceptable when it is said it like, "Zeni getting banned gives me the "Giggle Chills."

You are flirting with something that should not be flirted with dude. Catching a ban should be the least of your worries.

Smh. That's all in your head. I've never gotten the giggle chills over an underage girl. The giggle chills always initiate over LEGAL women. And they are women btw, stop lying just cause you're old and broken. But some of you wanna paint some kinda crazy TCAP picture that isn't happening at all! 😹🤦‍♂️🙉👨‍🔧

 

I don't even get why you guys are about to break your laptops over this shit!!! 🐶

Just thinking out loud, we could also possibly set up a rank for ban-alts so they only have access to df until they hit a certain threshold. Just to keep the trash where it belongs, so to speak.

I'm not over promising though because I'm thinking out loud in a public space and don't want people to hold me to it.

i couldn't care less if you catch a perma, but let's assume for a minute you don't actually comprehend the gravity of this long game you're playing. the phrase "barely legal" is pedo fodder. you've been warned dozens...maybe hundreds?...of times that it's gonna cost ya. if you value your ability to use this site, you'll dial it back by about 50% before one of the mods turns your account off for good. 

i don't mind the tough guy, alpha male routine. that's almost funny sometimes. but the "legal women" stuff crosses a line into some dark territory. this isn't the place for that kind of "humor" and it definitely isn't going to be tolerated if/when the owners start advertising for new users. you know all of this, i'm sure. i imagine it's just fun testing the boundaries every day. and i'd guess it's fun to watch everyone else wringing their hands and complaining "oh my word, what a deviant little scoundrel." hell, maybe it's the most entertaining part of your day. that would be pretty sad. 

but i'm not here to judge. just, i dunno, chill the fuck out man. try having an a conversation with people that doesn't revolve around being the toughest guy in the room, feigned ignorance in harassment of women, or actions that would warrant charges that begin with the word "statutory" for a change.

Legal is legal. That's the point of boundaries, right? To delineate right from wrong. You're big time mad! 😸

if i was mad, you'd know it. and i appreciate your dedication to the character, i really do. i'd almost miss it if zeni wasn't around to toss around his small guy syndrome. but you need to re-evaluate your limits if you want to stick around.

What's legal in your state is illegal in others and the server is based in a state that has it illegal so all you're doing is digging yourself into a grave 

The fact that  kn is giving you a final warning to stop this shit and you're just brushing it off like a joke tells everyone you don't care

You wrote out an entire three paragraph short essay there, buddy. Well at least you vented your feelings. I don't really have much to say here because the "issue" is a total stretch. 🙅‍♂️

like i said, i honestly think you do add some value to the site. i'd rather you fix your game instead of getting banned for good. but you won't, so have fun storming the castle.

I think we should implement a feature that does not allow new accounts to make threads, at least not outside maybe the Introduction/Help areas for x amount of hours or days. Especially with ole Rain Boi out there spamming it up. 

i kinda miss the old ranks scheme. didn't it have a "no new threads" restriction built-in too?

Banned for what lol. Dude, you can make out with a sexy legal age 19 year old even though you're twice her age and, beside the sideway glance I give to the situation, I'll trust that what's going on is legal... unless she slaps you! 🐰🙈😹🤘😎

Dueces, homie. Straight dueces!

What do you always joke about in your threads? You can have sex with a 16 year old because your state allows it

 

Answer carefully because I'm giving kn ammunition to IP your ass

i think if we really are going to reach outside then we have to get rid of zeni if he's not willing to cut the shit, otherwise we're just enabling him. having to make a distinction that the women he likes are "legal" is a problem in and of itself. we know his game but some random dude might not and make it into an actual problem.

I think we should try to figure out where the forum's priorities are currently, and what those priorities will be in the next year to 18 months.

  As it stands, any new person is going to see little more than people being horrible with little to no repercussion, and leave. That has to change before any sort of advertising is worth the effort, unless that is what you want to attract.

  In terms of audience, I would encourage content creators if possible, certainly Toonami/anime, and gamers. The obvious issue with content creators is the general desire to be compensated; most will be on platforms which support payment or have paywalls, Minds, Subscribestar etc..
