evince said:
Yes it will be a disastor.


but even that one area that is MORE moderated I was banned and went back and looked and I have NO idea what it was they got pissed at me saying abnd banned me.


so in effect there are NO written rules and NO ONE told me what was the offending post.

so I get to look at all these threads Im banned from speaking in and have to keep track of where Im allowed to talk.

Very un fun type of posting .

Its going to make me come bad much less.

BTW were wolf would shut the talk down this site for days.

I would come here and NO one was here to talk to because you were all playing the games.


EVERY time I try to post here more I am made to feel unwlcome in some way.

what the fuck is with that?

Ignorance of the law is no excuse.

You feel unwelcome because you are insecure and have low self esteem
 
BTW Desh it isn't just you. I ban hour women from my threads for genetically induced stupidity. You,darla, bijou, and Howey. It isn't your fault. Blame evolution.

I love how Snarla and Homoy are lobbying to have Desh reinstated. I wonder if the mods will cave. Homoy does appear to be running this place.

Well why don't you fucking stop doing that? That is NOT what that feature is for and you know it.

No one really takes the feature seriously, whatever purpose it is intended to have. I'm guessing it will fail its test trial and go away. Meanwhile, I am going to continue to make silly threads where I ban everyone or the people whom they are about.
 
yeah gaming the system is so fun.


I just wish people had the fucking guts to actually defend their shit instead of just trying to make people go away

Grind takes it seriously. I have no idea why he puts up with your stupid shit, but you're wrong.

you know, you are really making me kinda peeved, because if you go to the APP section there is a a sticky very clearly outlining the rules.

First, I know you posted here three years ago, so this isn't some mystery forum, or something new.

APP is a place meant for high level discussion, not the typical mudslinging, here are the rules from APP:

1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, general bigotry
2. No insults directed at specific individuals
3. No trolling
4. No flaming
5. No "Message Board Wars," please check personal vendettas at the door
6. No thread de-railment. Please stay on topic.

Please be courteous, kind, patient, intelligent and receptive to one another

Repeat offenders/those that show blatant disregard for the criteria, or those that are particularly nasty will be silenced from the forum for a amount of time deemed appropriate by mods after taking all the facts into consideration

******

So when your first posts in APP are calling someone an asshole, and then a "fucking idiot", and then a fucking idiot again, you are are breaking the rules. That forum is for mature discussion.

Unsurprisingly, very few people post there.

We try to make something for everyone at this site. Most forums have pretty much zero moderation. APP was started for those that wanted a bit of a stricter environment, it makes up about 10% of all the sub forums on this site, every other forum is completely unchanged.

So to reiterate, APP is nothing new, it's been around since 2009.

The new thing is personal thread bans. Anyone can ban who they like from threads upon starting it. This was to block trolls. It was to help people like howey from having someone like ILA coming into his threads calling him a "homo" or plenty of other names that are pretty terrible. It was created so certain women wouldn't have to deal with being called cunts or have someone talking about "fist fucking them" It was created for BAC so he wouldn't have to deal with people calling him a "nigger." And it was created for the rest of us to not put up with assholes who's only purpose is to troll and disrupt threads and be inflammatory unproductive posters.

IT'S AN EXPERIMENT, IT'S A MONTH TRIAL, AND IF JPP DOESN'T END UP LIKING IT WE WILL GET RID OF IT.

But more to the point, I would appreciate it, if for just once, you don't look at things as if they are nefarious or if someone is out to get you. A lot of those types of posts were bothering large parts of the community here, so we came up with a solution that would help address those issues while also not getting to heavy handed or directly increasing moderation.

The community had a problem, we addressed it. That's what we do. We aren't married to any idea, we don't plan on forcing anything onto the JPP community. If JPP doesn't like it, we will get rid of it.

You are very welcome here desh, I am glad to have you back. But the sky isn't falling...I think you'll find that you can still post in almost all threads, only ILA is blocking you. Have you ever had a productive discussion with ILA? Think about the fact that there are still 40-50 active members at any one time you can still have meaningful conversations with.

Please talk to some others that you know and respect before you just assume it's big bad JPP being an asshole to you for no reason. That isn't the case.

I think that this is really important though. A lot of people don't seem to understand that.

You were banned from APP because you kept going around calling people fucking idiots and such. That's against the rules of APP.

Oh you poor victims who just can't survive without special rules to protect you from big, bad ole me.

:rofl2:

She broke the rules, now you don't want her to live with the consequences.

Desh when you go into a thread you can see who, if anyone, is banned from that thread right on the very top. Of course this will be misused, and you can see it already with abusive right wing morons making laughable claims that they are banning "trolls" from their threads. But it's an interesting option for people who don't come here to have USF follow them around making obscene, sexually graphic, degrading, abusive remarks.

I don't know if it will work or last, but it's definitely not meant to shut someone like you up. I hope it doesn't work out that way and if it does, then no one will like it and the option will be gone.

Consider this an obscene, sexually graphic, degrading, abusive remark

Desh you just got banned from APP, above plain politics. And grind said that everyone knew the rules are different there, but he's wrong. You were gone for a long time, and I know you didn't know. It's a forum where you can't call any names. That's all. He should have explained it to you instead of banning you, and if you PM him and tell him that you didn't know (and I know you didn't know, too bad everyone else here is fucking clueless), I bet he will let you back on there. Hardly anyone posts in that forum anyway. You are not at all unwelcome, no way. This new thing where we can start threads and ban anyone we feel is a troll or abusive, you are the last person THAT is about. That's not about you. Don't feel that you are unwelcome, I love that you are back, Rana loves that you are back, christie, many others.

We haven't played werewolf in a long time, I'm not even playing next time, and the next time I play if I do, I will talk to you I promise. I don't want to get so wrapped up in that stupid game again, I almost killed someone the last time. A friend too!

Absolutely! Love having you back, pay no heed to men who can't handle you!

I hope you noticed I came to your defense. What's sad is that you were banned from APP for something so minor it's sad but afterwards ILA unleashed a tirade of i.sults towards you that were left there.

Seriously? Maybe, the mods are just busy.
 
Howey said:
Seeing as how they jumped right on Desh's post and banned her, you'd think they'd keep an eye on ILA considering his troll rep.

if you see any offending posts, report them. I am about to get on the road so will be inactive for the rest of the night probably.
