[QUOTE=Tomo Takino;52617642]What's wrong with people wanting to not see dogshit posts that they can't do anything about?[/QUOTE] Fuck is this whole thing a false flag because that guy requested the ability to add moderators to the ignore list?
first
[QUOTE=Samiam22;52617735]The story of Alice3173's current title is a really good example of mods being petty, actually.[/QUOTE] Incredibly hypocritical when you consider it came from the same mod who keeps going on and on and on about how he doesn't want to stifle unpopular opinions whenever the subject of people such as Tudd comes up yet is clearly perfectly okay with trying to stifle unpopular opinions when they're ones he personally doesn't like. [QUOTE=HumanAbyss;52617736]I think people just don't respond well to hypocrisy in a lot of ways It'll all blow over and I don't think it's worth caring about but it's still silly to see[/QUOTE] The blatant hypocrisy combined with the mods never doing anything but doubling down on things is exactly why people are getting so up in arms about it.
[QUOTE=Tomo Takino;52617740]Same guy that wants people to pay to change titles and avatars of other people. Really makes you think of why, hmm.[/QUOTE] um the community fund is for like. fun things for the community. and also charities which is something I'm especially interested in. the mods might like to goof from time to time but the funding thing isn't a secret scheme or anything.
I like big anime avatars!

this threads way to fuckin violent
[QUOTE=Exooodus;52617784]this threads way to fuckin violent[/QUOTE] How many Stalins will you give to it?

That was such a dumb idea to have even suggested in the first place. Like what do people [I]think[/I] that will be used for?

Literally none of it matters.
This forum is serious business there will be no nonsense or fun of any kind allowed on my watch

This thing is going towards big Facepunch-wide community stuff and I think that's neat...:s:
Tomo Takino you haven't sent me a angry PM yet

So how's this going to be any different.
[QUOTE=Tomo Takino;52617821]And boostar was abused to give out titles to people just for the purpose of being a dickhead to them. So how's this going to be any different.[/QUOTE] It's not, but I guess I'm trying to say that they're doing it for a neat thing for all of the forum and it's not really a huge deal in the end. I dunno, I had some talks and it kinda got me to realize that if you think about it all, it's just a forum on the internet. Taking a step back and not taking it so seriously is helpful.
COME ON GUYS its just some pictures
[QUOTE=kariko;52617829]It's not, but I guess I'm trying to say that they're doing it for a neat thing for all of the forum and it's not really a huge deal in the end.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I think it's cool that you can pay towards some interesting stuff. But thinking that would ever be a great idea that no one would ever use to be a cunt would be incredibly delusional.

Like what do people [I]think[/I] that will be used for?[/QUOTE] Because it gets you something in return, if you don't approve of it then don't participate it's that simple. Ultimately this also goes to fund giveaways that go directly back to the community anyway, and people are far more inclined to give money if they directly get something in return (titles, avatars etc.).

Like what do people [I]think[/I] that will be used for?[/QUOTE] Boostar allowed the changing of titles and nobody suffered from it. The money also helped to provide moderators with some small amounts of income which I can say helped a lot when I was struggling to pay off some bills. I can get why changing avatars is a bit much which is why I voiced that I'd rather not implement that, but changing titles is such a small deal that I legitimately don't understand why you're up in such arms about it.
[QUOTE=Tomo Takino;52617839]Yeah, I think it's cool that you can pay towards some interesting stuff. But thinking that would ever be a great idea that no one would ever use to be a cunt would be incredibly delusional.[/QUOTE] I never said that at all, and I don't really remember anyone saying that either?
[QUOTE=Ta16;52617840]Because it gets you something in return, if you don't approve of it then don't participate it's that simple.[/QUOTE] The only people excluded from people fucking with them are mods, whether I want to or not I have to be involved if that is allowed.
If people really want to be a dick to you, they're gonna find a way to do it, whether or not they can buy a title.
[QUOTE=Pascall;52617843]But changing titles is such a small deal that I legitimately don't understand why you're up in such arms about it.[/QUOTE] because of what I said above? It was used to target people. if being a dickhead to people through posts is allowed, what's going to stop it happening again through titles? Again being the keyword because it already happened once. [editline]27th August 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Pascall;52617849]If people really want to be a dick to you, they're gonna find a way to do it, whether or not they can buy a title.[/QUOTE] So that makes it cool or something? They can be a dick to you if they really want to but lets offer up another way for them to do it. What sense does this make.

But I really think if someone is legitimately trying to harm you that the mods would take it more serious.

The days of people buying humiliating titles in that extent will probably not come back. I'm also sure using titles for advertising won't be permitted either, like what Conna did and got banned for. You're thinking in terms of worst case here imo.

If someone has to check the titles or avatar changes I can see it being more moderated. But that it can happen at all and is 100% avoidable is pretty dismal.

They can be a dick to you if they really want to but lets offer up another way for them to do it. What sense does this make.[/QUOTE] You're being very melodramatic. Titles are also used for fun. Or to flaunt whatever it is that you're flaunting with yours. Maybe someone finds your post and pokes fun at you about it by spending five bucks to buy you a title. I can honestly say that I don't even read titles at this point. Because they're so inconsequential and sometimes are even incredibly outdated. If someone wants to poke fun at me by giving me a goofy title, by all means. If it really bothers me, I'll just use the opportunity to donate some money and change it to something else. Or maybe ask some pals if they're willing to change it for me. It all goes to a good cause. So it's whatever. If you're really bothered by titles being changeable, as they have been for a good while, either by other users or by mods, then you're gonna have a rough time continuing to function properly on this forum. And that's not me being mean, that's me saying that this forum has never been a bastion of good vibes and singalongs. Sometimes people get silly and rude and make mean jokes. I feel like if you're not prepared to handle that, you're not gonna be happy here. It's just kind of the nature of a big community tbh. [editline]27th August 2017[/editline] On that note though, if someone is harassing you, we always take that seriously. I don't know why there would even be an impression that we don't. There's a difference between jokes and harassment.
