haha pretty sure they will

Evilore is batshit crazy but I just can't see him banning 50 people for mentioning that they post on another my site.

Wouldn't be surprised

This is a girl thread first and foremost, I think we should respect that. And foster this. This is the second time this is happening. Third time will result in a mod being tasked with checking this thread every now and then and start deleting reported posts. And none of us want to do that.

Great posts make you a great poster! So please post responsibly.

I was hoping WYL would be a valid alternative to GAF instead of just a GAF clone with the worst of the GAF userbase as mods (seriously, costanza?).

Not angry, just horribly disappointed.

But our content is way better.  :smug

The main difference between GAF and WYL is the traffic.  Both fire with low accuracy but GAF is shooting so much more that a few shots do get through. 

However, lower traffic does not affect EB because we nail it almost every time.  We're efficient like that.  :patel

I just deleted all of those posts because they were dragging another thread into this one. Obviously, rape is not cool and I definitely do not appreciate the misogyny going on, on the forums. However, I would've liked to keep that battle in that thread instead of bringing it over here.

I am reviewing the other thread and will talk to someone about it. As for this thread, I warn you to tread carefully. I do not want to ban anyone but if I have to I will. Keep the misogyny out of here and we will not have any problems. I will warn you if you cross the line but if you continuously do so, you will be met with a more severe punishment.

Many of you have been warned in this thread by Veidt plenty, and he's serious. As am I.



That's gotta be sarcasm, right?  Wasn't the point of WYL to be GAF minus the administrative crap?

So they've deleted strings of post and also deleted entire threads? Seriously, do we need to be censored? It's a rare occasion when GAF deletes posts or threads. They may edit them sarcastically and ban the people, but rarely do you read a thread and say, "Whoa, did I miss a post?"

Now this avatar shit. Go to forum, no avatar. Re-upload it. There's two settings, one for rectangle and one for square. The square blows it out huge. The rectangle button doesn't work. So now my avatar is completely blown out and blurry, and I'm told to get a new one and it was blurry yesterday? It's not blurry here, and it's not blurry on GAF. I've used maybe 2 other avatars ever, so I don't really feel like switching. And I'm not taking the time out to re-size the fuck out of the one I have so that they can change the settings/preferences again tomorrow. And I really don't want to see everybody else's gigantic shitty avatars.

"No no we're way different than GAF! Way less moderation (well until you post)! Way better forum layout (but ran by vBulletin still)! Way different avatars (they're square!!!!)"

Seriously, when my husband and I (and a few other friends that post on GAF) talk about GAF, our problem is never the moderation. My problem is the posters there. Most have no sense of humor, and either find things funny because someone else did as well, or purposely don't find things funny to seem mature and distinguished. And they're all know-it-all bitches. You can say grass is green and the sky is blue and they will fucking argue with you. And I've literally said to my husband, "I could tell them about my menstrual cycle, and they could tell me I'm wrong." And that exact thing happened, but not at GAF...

People who have no right to ever admin/mod a forum running wild and fucking with the settings too much out of bordem and randomly deleting topics tends to lead to dead forums really quick. I know from experience as someone who did that. WYL is about a day away from joining the pile of those endless other spin-off's started by shake, ichi, mupepe...etc.

Unsurprisingly, WYL has turned out to be much worse than GAF after browsing it for a while.  The board didn't have anything going for it unlike EB or OA, where a few magnetic personalities were enough of a draw.  The moderation attitude over there appears to be as petty as the moderation attitude at GAF but at least GAF has 100x the members, whose heavy handed modding could seem partially justified.  WYL just has poorly endowed social insignificants running the show, flailing about like they flail their own dicks nightly.

WYL seems to have collected the spazzes, the threadshitters (see: Gaborn, RubxQub, omg rite), and awkward virginal discussions of GAF with none of the rare nuggets of knowledge and insight you might get at GAF.  Plus it got a decent mod at GAF de-modded to boot.

How is WastingYourLife.com moderated?

We the admins and mods prefer that the forum be self-regulated, in part by you, the user. We would prefer that all users follow the forum rules, obey the admins and moderators, and generally keep things running smoothly. Feel free to nudge your peers in the right direction.

We don't want to roll in and instantiate martial law. We could, but we'd rather not have to. Behave.

Quote
Under what circumstances will I be subject to a ban?

It will probably take a lot of work to have a temporary or permanent ban instituted upon you. Before we resort to such drastic measures, you will receive several clearly worded warnings, in the form of forum posts, PM's, or emails. It will require multiple, repeated offenses despite moderator or administrator warning.

If you are not able to curtail the errant behaviour, you may, after receiving aforementioned warnings, be subject to a temporary ban. If we find ourselves having to remove your access to the site often, we may decide to revoke your right to visit permanently.

Apparently I was warned multiple times, but I don't recall seeing any of them other than some particularly awful poster giving me the tag of "shit poster", which, at the time, I could only assume was ironic.

i have no desire to ever run a forum or be a moderator, but i'd probably handle attack posters and forum grudges by having a special board for it and just shifting all those shit threads over there when it got out of hand on the main boards (like the baby dumpster), but exiling the worst posters there for a while when i got tired of dealing with their bullshit

Looks like Dave Chappelle has lost it again :fbm

Quote
A source extremely familiar with the incident tells TMZ Chappelle boarded a private jet in New Jersey last night bound for Ohio -- where the actor lives.

During the flight, we're told Dave "freaked out" and refused to put his seat belt on. Then -- according to sources -- Dave repeatedly walked into the cockpit, asking how much longer the flight would be, and started grabbing the pilot's arms.

Sources say the pilot determined Chappelle was a safety risk and diverted the plane to Pittsburgh.

We're told Chappelle then checked into a nearby hotel for the night. Sources at the hotel tell us Dave has been telling hotel employees he wanted to rent a car to drive back to Ohio ... only he couldn't remember where he lived.
