Worst time for this discussion as I'm juggling family stuff like I'm sure many of you are. Won't be able to read or discuss as much as I'd like for a couple days here.

^Hit the nail on the fucking head.

It's fucking christmas, we shouldn't be fething around on the bloody forums trying to figure out some rule change bollocks.

Hence the poll being open until at least Sunday.

See you Cowgirl,
Someday, somewhere
You're not supposed to be able to see the results.
I don't like that. I'd prefer to know what the majority view is.
I see no reason to keep our opinions secret when we're posting them below.

Plus it would tell me if the moderation is going against the majority view.
You'll find out when it ends, Jesus.

It's to prevent possible bias.

Yeah, that too... even though... I can't imagine what it must be like to be influenced by the majority opinion.

How are you going to be biased? You can't see the results until you vote and you can't change your vote...

How are you going to be biased? You can't see the results until you vote and you can't change your vote...

I can't see the results at all. Regardless, it's basically blinding.
You go in, read the options, and pick your choice. You don't see what others pick.

At the end of the poll, we'll either show you the poll results or we'll simply announce it to you.
And of course mention what will and/or will not be changing based on those results.

Well it's how I'll probably spend mine too, but I'd rather have something less dreary to be the topic of discussion.

Well it's looking like I'm going to have to vacate my fething room for the next week, which is just fucking peachy. So I can't even retreat from the festivities to fucking recuperate. *sigh*
I'm going to end up like fucking scrooge before the morning at this rate. And if the ghost of christmas past comes in through my window I'm ganking the fucker.

Unlucky. I at least get to retreat to my room when I get sick of people. Which is pretty quickly.

Four short sentences isn't what I'd call "in depth", but whatever.

I have no problem with the results' visibility, I just don't really think that was an adequate response...

We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.
Hybrid but get rid of the fucking spam.

This was a pretty significant topic in my Legal Psychology class. I don't remember all that much of it, but it's pretty generally accepted that even if you don't explicitly and consciously make a decision based on the majority, it still plays a role in our subconscious.
I'd like to see proof or evidence of that. I'm not doubting you, but I mean, automatically, it's just inherently a dubious claim, isn't it?

Hybrid. Mods are not here to be buddy-buddy with everybody; they're here to enforce the rules and make sure it's a pleasant environment for everybody, not just a small and select group of people. Remember, many left because DeeJ completely ignored his job as a community manager and we don't need a repeat of that

I think it should be lax, but blatant shitposts that aren't even an attempt at being funny should be locked.

I think there is a problem if you have to ask the community how to moderate
Don't really see the issue in asking the community what style of moderation we'd prefer.
Especially since this is still a young site. You don't want to drive people off with drastic changes out of no where.
Far better to hear people out.

Strict. I also want to add that mods need to act more professional. Not baiting or making shitposts.

But that's some funny ass shit.


I'm sorry that I want to have mods that spend more time doing their fucking job than acting like children.

Jeez Patton, calm your tits

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
Hybrid system, with lax on shitposting but strict on spam.

The argument that being strict on this will reduce activity is flawed. Clearly if the majority of activity is spam/shitposting, it's a problem that lies with the posting community, not the moderation procedures.

Can anyone make the distinction between shitposting and spam?

Because to me, they're the same thing.

Often times they're one and the same but I think it has to do with level of effort and humor put into it.

Shitposting: "I have established the nation of Fagistan" - Posted by IcyWind

Spam: "I have established the nation of Fagistan" - Posted by IcyWind
"I have established the nation of Homosexuality" - Posted by IcyWind
"I have established the nation of No Girls" - Posted by IcyWind
"I have established the nation of Penises" - Posted by IcyWind
"I have established the nation of Butts" - Posted by IcyWind

The repetitive nature of the threads, all posted by the same user with little distinction, is what an example of spam would be - at least to me.
