[QUOTE=Kiwi;52629466] I remember when fruxodaily was an American.[/QUOTE] yeah real fuckin hilarious huh "hey why you posting an AUSTRALIAN NEWS ARTICLE aren't you AMERICAN" drove me up the fucking wall for years, props to garry for helping a cobba out
[QUOTE=Kiwi;52635789]The Aussie was also American I think??????????? I know Brt540 was fucking Canadian... I've had a Japanese flag a few times whilst living in New Zealand. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯[/QUOTE] Must of taken a lot of convincing for Garry to recognise NZ as a country not a state
[QUOTE=Kiwi;52635793]Always had a NZ flag though for most of this account's existence.[/QUOTE] im never gonna get a reaction off you am i
So why is Dailymotion blocked exactly? Is there some kind of exploit/browser-crashing related issue with the embebbed player that surfaced recently that I'm not aware of? Search function only gives me now-censored links
Man fuck all this 'ignore them if they make you mad' shit, that's for nerds. If you disagree with someone here you should fight them IRL. [editline]1st September 2017[/editline] We can use the community fund to pay for flights and shit.

Search function only gives me now-censored links[/QUOTE] I'm not sure about issues with the embedded player, exploits and such but I'm guessing censored links are due to the fact Dailymotion is lax on copyright content, and such are lenient on hosting full episodes of shows, and they're considered as warez.
Going back on the whole pentium thing, I feel bad for how he's been treated, not to mention my attitude towards him. I noticed that in his RC thread he wants his title gone, so I think removing that will mean a lot to him since its one of the lowest apples to grab when picking on him. And I'm saying this as the one who made him that gif.
The problem pentium faces is that he is stuck in a world where modern tech makes no sense to use when all the old stuff works so well, but complaining 5 minutes later that everyone dropped support for his hard- and software. I'm sure many of us like pentium irregardless, but there have been tons of occasions where he tried to defend his old tech choices with asinine logic. I still feel kinda bad about the whole joke death threat thing he apparently took serious, but there's no knowing if that was even real.

If you disregard the human behind the Pentium handle, his posts are extremely funny in a sad sort of way. That's the issue here.
[QUOTE=Kiwi;52635793]Always had a NZ flag though for most of this account's existence.[/QUOTE] what a coincidence i had a NZ flag for a good while too

Search function only gives me now-censored links[/QUOTE] Afaik pretty much the only time it ever got used on here was to post full episodes of TV shows, so it got censored entirely.

[/QUOTE] This always causes a rift between him and other users but if it wasn't for him my IBM PC/AT would not be working the way it is right now. The guy is smart as hell when it comes to old tech and will jump in to help you with it in a heartbeat and I really hope he doesn't get himself permad. there's a reason why I uploaded this last year [video=youtube;jDHnXzhTe5E]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDHnXzhTe5E[/video]

It's on him for sharing stories about showering people with dandruff, and it's on him when he takes posts personally that aren't even directed at him. Dude's gotta find his own chill.

gee, there are some really insecure nerds on 4chan

It's just when he blabbers on about how he has to stay on old tech and new tech is globally bad or w/e that people are bothered I think.
[QUOTE=dx9er;52636790]To be fair there atleast should be some sort of warning saying that "this thread got a reply pretty long time ago, you should probably just make a new thread instead". There's none right now and it'd prevent someone going on places like 4chan to complain about things like this.[/QUOTE] Whoever dug up that thread from the depths of the section was fully aware that the thread was old, they even mentioned it in their own post, and (temp-)bans are utilized as warnings here. Besides, since when do we care what 4chan thinks about us. :class:

[QUOTE=code_gs;52636887]Is there an exception to this if the question/topic presented in the thread has an update/new info? This mainly applies to GMod/mapping/modelling/programming and possibly SH threads[/QUOTE] If the thread isn't suuuuper ancient (as in a good couple of years) and actually contributes something meaningful, we'll look the other way, but when in doubt it's usually better to open a new thread and perhaps link the old one.
I do think that some rules should be actually written to the rules page for certain specific things like bumping older threads. When is it ok to bump an older thread, and when should you search before you post?
Like we've said before, we can't alter the Rules page because we lack FTP access. Otherwise we probably would've done it a while back.
[QUOTE=da space core;52637137]I do think that some rules should be actually written to the rules page for certain specific things like bumping older threads. When is it ok to bump an older thread, and when should you search before you post?[/QUOTE] Generally it depends alot on the context, but basically if your bump contributes nothing new or relevant to a conversation at all, just leave it be (especially if the thread is a couple of years old). Writing a 100% complete list of acceptable circumstances is neither trivial nor worth it. Asking a mod is always possible.
[quote]mezzokoko is a notorious cunt who wormed his way into admin. Insufferable prick who hates everyone who isn't his friend. stay away from facepunch OP, it's a pit of snakes and sjw's worse than somethingawful[/quote] Watch out mezzo, 4chan is onto you and we're also supposedly worse than somethingawful now.

Facepunch is full of SJWs? I think they've got us confused with some other gaming forum.
You aren't a proper moderator until someone shittalks you in an anonymous hugbox elsewhere on the Internet.
