Well you can now enjoy a few days as gold, at least.
Wow, thanks guys :3
enjoy the porno stash I suppose
On some serious shit though, i get my news from here because i like seeing different sides of the debate. I dont like watching actual news stations and watching people argue over IG or FB is so redundant to me. Yes there are a few idiots on here that try to get their points across the wrong way and are generally wrong in what they say, but at least it isnt some weird social media swayed debate. I also have been on here since 2010 and Ive made a lot of friends on here that I really love. I hope that we can salvage something in terms of a community if it does come to an end here.
Question - why are people thinking the forums are going to go down in the (very close) future? I saw Garry's post saying he considered shutting down the forums in the FaQ thread but nothing else apart from the dumb changes this morning
The "point" he was making? 80% of users have no fucking idea what's going on. He blew up the forums to prove a point to someone? This forum community helped build him to where he is now and he still doesn't have the tiniest shred of decency when interacting with us. It was cute in 2007 but now it just reads as being extremely childish.
Well itll be a big ol shame if this gets deleted
this is the only forum i actually participate in more than like once a month so this is kinda sad tbh
please dont kill this forum. where will i go for news or lmao pics? how can i possibly fill a hole so large
Where will all the rust posters go..?
tfw i will never see what happens when you only increase the height on your profile pic and not the width
The forums just sort of feel like they are in the end times due to how dead as fuck everything feels and how there are no emergency attempts of bringing in new members that are radical enough and a lot of veteran members seem to be against pretty much any significant changes regardless of them being good or bad. Garry attempted implementing some new things to improve the situation but he received nothing but pages upon pages of complaints about it which is probably why he feels kind of tired of this shit. I feel that one of the main problems that caused facepunch to cascade down into this situation is its wildly high standards for posting and how judgmental and strict everything is, and how people do not really ever feel at ease about posting anything dumb without getting ruthlessly reprimanded for it. Most posting styles have transformed into either neutral questions or carefully constructed essays because no one wants to get assblasted for having a bad post. Facepunch's totalitarian forum culture was going to bite it in the ass eventually and I guess it's doing that now, the only regular posters who remain are either perfect posters or unusually ballsy posters.
reddit? He did mention moving the relevant (gmod and rust) communities there.
I wanted to see Badage Boys when I opened this thread
hello where is my coin?~
Did other social platforms spoil the average user so bad when all we ask for is a little bit of manners. A huge part of Facepunch is rather tolerant these days save for maybe when politics is concerned.
Maybe yes, but if the modern userbase is spoiled then facepunch needs to become a bit more spoiled also or else it feels like moving from a free country to a dictatorship. Modern members of the internet community are not used to getting repeatedly slapped in the ass for their mistakes and are used to having the ability of erasing them from existence and learning from them in a much softer way.
What? All I saw today are some miniforums getting merged into the big ones, now we're talking of shutting the place down?
don't kill facepunch i signed up here when i was 13 to look at the porn threads please garry don't do it
If facepunch goes under, then JBmod will rise!
