We get that you're an emo TG bitch. I also get that you are using your mod power to escalate conflict because you have a deep seated hatred towards me, because you're a fucking no life loser.
But you can't keep me out of TL. You can't trace all my accounts. You have no power. It's so easy to tell you now what I really think of you, and just move on freely.
you're a joke, you're the ignorant one, and sex and gender are the same thing. You have no concept of these things, and you behave like a stupid bitch.
One of five angry and offensive PMs he sent me regarding his ban. Feeling pretty vindicated right now. It's fun to be right about people.
<3 Thanks for all the effort. I just read the last bit of that thread, and there's actually an interesting conversation happening in there. Good job!
And then in between that there are people saying she is still a man. At least its not a complete shit storm of bigotry.
That was the first thread * 1000.
Yeah I saw that thread. Then I closed it. Then proceeded to facepalm for a minute.
However, it is nice to know there are some people on the internet who don't have a pathological hatred for anyone who isn't a white, male nerd.Last edit: 2012-04-04 01:15:48 |

Thank you. 
Also, yes, I have to admit that does! TL has it's bad points like any other community but I'm always impressed by how great the majority are. |

Just read your blog, not sure how I missed that one the first time round!
I have an interesting personal story about a transgender person I knew a while back. I'll share it in your blog later

Your post that Kwark added to the OP helped a lot, too. It's not exactly an easy concept to understand for those of us who weren't born with the problem. |

It surprises me to know that you actually read your pms Unless you just ignore the ones I send 
Its good to see all the idiots being shot down in that thread though. |

I'm not sure a mod getting obsessed with one thread when there are others that probably need moderation as well is a good thing. |

I'd guess that between the big flashing neon signs that they get on reports, and the fact that there's quite a few mods on the staff, this isn't interfering too badly.
Also, when there's one thread that's trying to devolve into a shitfest bantrap, it sends out crazy magic internet pheromones that attract the majority of trouble, concentrating it in one place, and reducing mod actions elsewhere. |

I said it in the thread but I have to say that the mod note (I assume its kwarks) is absolutely hysterical. Boils down to
"You are ignorant, shut up." I think that should go on a bunch of general forum topics. |

It depends on the thread. There are some topics that are really worth discussing, but can easily degenerate into bullshit from just a single ignorant post. Dealing with that requires a moderator who is vigilant in keeping that thread under control.
Without that, you're basically saying that we can never talk about certain things. Without that vigilance, the rest of the mods would have just closed the thread for having accrued too much crap. This is a much better solution for TL.
Or, to put it another way, your suggestion would let the assholes and/or ignorant people win. Screw that!Last edit: 2012-04-04 06:05:22 |

When there are a couple of topics attracting most of the terrible posts, like a live relay thread or one about gay, black, transgender, immigrant dwarves in Alabama, then having a single mod take care of the thread leads to much faster and more effective moderation. Bad posts are like graffiti; if you don't kill them immediately they multiply. As there are multiple mods around, the only results that a single mod taking on a hot-button thread has are better, quicker moderation and less spillover into the rest of the forum. |

Nakamp was just temp banned for 2 days by GMarshal.
That account was created on 2012-03-03 03:33:39 and had 1 posts.
Reason: That was not exactly the best first post, especially in a serious thread.
Please try much harder on your second post.
I don't even understand what his post was about. |
