I remember as a kid people would ask me if there were any Republicans I respected and his name was always the first one that came up. At least until the Bush era and the war.

Because, from our point of view, we don't view a lot of the calls for compensation as good faith advocacy for us so much as it is a way to attack Cerium (mainly because a lot of people still go on to insult us in the same breadth anyway). That doesn't mean demands for compensation aren't valid. It means there is definitely some weaponization going on, and it's happening regardless of if you- the actual you, not a general you- are doing it yourself. At a certain threshold it becomes impossible to tell individual intent when you're dealing with hundreds of people weighing in on something simultaneously. But you can tell, from personal history and the hostility towards you for daring to say "I'm okay, don't worry about me," that bad faith is evident. And that shouldn't be ignored like it has.Again, this is why I keep joking that people want us to be paid to be called incompetent fascists, instead of realizing that we don't want to be called incompetent fascists, as if the money will make it better. Like, have you worked retail lol? You think the paycheck absolves the customer's behavior?

Kinda looking forward to the change over. Open registration to new users, add some paid staff over volunteers, maybe some new perks. Would be nice to have a game forum with threads that don’t get derailed for pages cause someone called someone else a dude.
You should be asking what has happened then that 99% of staff do not feel like they can trust that these arguments are coming from a place of good-heartedness then.
Judging by your behavior here Neph, it's clear you haven't had things go your way in life, but for my money you are far worse than any childhood bully I've endured. This site and my account here are absolutely worthless as long as people like you get to dictate what is and isn't okay to discuss.

User Banned (Permanent): Extreme hostility over multiple posts
blame space thread bannedlolthread banning is the pettiest shit ever.
Also note, we're not above being paid. If we got equal shares of everything, we'd all probably take it. We're just letting people know we never signed on for financial compensation in the first place because... it was a volunteer job (still is; I can leave anytime). So you know, it's hard to feel any type of way?
It would be a very nice QoL feature if we could set staff to be ignored. Any reason why they are exempt from the ignore feature? There are actually some interesting posts being made in this thread, but it’s hard to sift through because most of the pages are filled with staff airing their personal grievances about the userbase or partaking in user smackdowns, which not getting into whether it’s justified or not, is just not something I really care about or want to read. I would certainly ignore other users for directing the discussion this way. Surely most of the commentary by staff in this thread is not essential, why can’t I ignore it like I can anyone else?

User Banned (5 Days): Inflammatory Generalization; History of Trolling
Movies Batman (outside of Schumacher and Burton) is a way for angry nerds to vicariously live out their anger fantasies.Newsflash: just because you’re a nerd doesn’t mean you’re a good person. You’re just an angry person. Get some help.
User banned (permanent): Hostility towards staff. Multiple prior bans for hostility.
This is an amazing thread. You gotta love the performative wokeness of the staff that they spend like 30 pages going to the mat for a white woman calling a black man a cracker, but the mildest suggestion that hey, maybe you guys shouldn’t work for free for a guy cashing out millions, it devalues labor ya know, turns into a 120+ page didactic slap fight. How DARE you! These users are hypocrites! They are the evil ones! You have to really admire the utter insanity of proclaiming that large swaths of the community are toxic, hostile, and bigoted while insisting that you want to moderate that community for free. That cannot possibly be healthy. Some real “we are the shields against the darkness” energy going on here. Incredible stuff. Cerium could not have asked for a better crew, so props to him on the payday.God damn I love me some petty ass mod drama. I’m getting real 2004 vibes from this thread. Can’t wait to see what happens next!
