I just noticed that he's been resonsible for 1/2 of the Hall of Shame threads in '08.

If Icon status is as useless as it's supposed to be, why not give it to Ichi to show him how silly his complaints were?

if willco's gonna waste the time to satisfy the whiny complaint of the gafternet's biggest babyEVILBORE'S OWN INTRAFORUM BATMAN DEFENDER OF THE E-BULLIED AND E-DOWNTRODDEN, he should just abolish the icon status altogether. it *is* useless and apparently has the sole valid purpose of making ichi wet himself with rage. frankly, i don't want him playing the grudge card in every halfways decent discussion or mockery thread just because he didn't get picked for the world's gayest kickball team, so we might as well get rid of the whole affair if willco/cloud can spare the time, interest, or energy.

as it stands, icon-dom is just a vestige of an early bad idea we'd hoped to use to attracts gaf's more, uh, interesting posters.

Ichi did have some valid points about how certain posters are unfairly singled out for group bullying.  Too bad he obfuscated those points with his complaining about something that no longer serves any purpose.

That was honestly my biggest complaint, but other folks changed the focus of the discussion once I mentioned removing the Icon system.  I don't get why everyone feels so fucking threatened by my saying so, it's not like I can actually do anything about it.
Title: Re: Make Ichi an Icon
Post by: Van Cruncheon on April 24, 2008, 07:19:50 PM
unfairly? what's fair on the internet? how you HANDLE it dictates whether or not it continues. everyone gets hazed, and the degree to which hazing continues is based on your reaction to it. pd refused to back down from untenable and clearly ill-considered arguments in political and cinema threads, partly because it suited his contrarian urges but also because he's bad at backing down. same thing for foc. himuro has the unfortunate habit of putting his personal hypocrisies on parade, and takes very poorly to being needled about his preferences. these folks get the same treatment and reactions at gaf, oa, and the other places they've posted.

this is kinda stupid coming from you, SG, given that you've frequently complained that we don't have ENOUGH oa-style drama

i should point out that when pd is chill -- specifically, when he stays away from gaf culture discussions or randi rhodes' boards and thus doesn't get his backlash on -- he's quite a charming poster and draws more lulz than ire

I think it's stupid that you call PD out for being contrarian when you do the same thing a lot of the time, Prole.  Sengoku Basara 2 thread being a case in point.

It's one thing to give someone some friendly joshing for acting distinguished mentally-challenged, but people go too far and nobody steps in to say "Hey, cut him some slack"...and if someone does, it's all "OMG ICHI BELIEVEZ IN FORUM CONSPIRACEES" :( :( :(

I think PD gets more beef than he deserves too. Sometimes I think he's being honest when he's being accused of being contrarian.

But there's a reason for the accusation existing in the first place, so it's his problem to deal with.

Most of the time he posts with no problem, n e wayz. People like him.

There was no false bravado, threats of revealing personal info, embarrasing PMs, or unexpected nudies.

If I moderated a lot; if I make this forum everything I wanted it to be, it would only be a fun place to post for one person: Me. Why the fuck would I just start locking threads because one person outta everyone here doesnt like conversations carrying on past page 2?

OH NOES SUMONE NOT HAPPY TIME TO LOCK THREADS!

Evilbore is a fucking shark tank, the people who post here often largely accept that they may just be punched in the mouth a few times while peddling their shtick, and they ACCEPT that. I am satisfied with the forum by and large regulating itself because that is how a HEALTHY community is formed. Its not formed by police on every block rapping fingers witha  nightstick whenever someone cries foul.
