(+) Yeah! (+)

Oooooh, I kinda hope this results in a ban or something, she needs a new account so I'm not on her butthurt block/ignore list anymore

I miss the drama, CE is too tame without her stirring up shit

oh, and the absolute kicker?

i still see all of the racist posts in that other topic of mine

thanks for proving what we all already knew, alucard and the rest of the staff

merry christmas

You don't want the "racist" posts to disappear, you want to feel indignant about the literally least impactful "authority" in existence--Volunteer Moderators. If you did, you would have taken the basic steps necessary for them to be reviewed. You have instead invented a new paradigm where nothing will be done about the thing you want to complain about so you can continue to complain about it. You have not demonstrated any bias or discrimination with this topic, you have demonstrated an inability to reform your behavior to meet the demands of the community you reside within. This does not make you smart or virtuous, this makes you immature.

TC are you as passionate about having misogynistic posts deleted as you apparently are about racist posts?

I do. I like when people get called out for their lies

Essentially the topic of porn continued on the Discord chat where we were discussing the idea of interplay of sex and violence.

Someone (not the person who was banned) mentioned that it seemed ridiculous to them that people need to be taught something like "consent".

I countered to that person that I think consent, in general, is something that should be taught and early. Like a right to one's personal space in general, that kind of thing.

I then referenced the following video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pum938T14Hs

Where preschoolers are taught the concept of consent and personal space by picking whatever morning greeting they're comfortable with.

I guess one person in particular misunderstood the message I was trying to send.

Also on a topic that was very sensitive to a particular member of the chat, that person was saying things like "y'all just ain't freaky". So they were building up to it.

Imagine arguing with someone like brutal. Can't take a troll like that one serious guys.

But seriously it's Christmas lets just chill.

<__< But with CE there will always be pointless drama.

He is telling them to close this thread.

also, can someone tell Goats that shit talking me on discord and his alternate gamefaqs accounts while having me blocked on his main alongside jo because they're the saltiest people ever recorded and can never look at themselves in the mirror and change for the better just makes me laugh even harder at them crying, especially when they make topics whenever i get warned? It really makes me giggle how much they hate me when this is the first time ive acknowledged them in half a year.

Jo, Goats, get a life you two. This is pathetic. You're both pathetic.

the -ist and -phobic users typically know how to veil their hate well enough that most mods arent going to bother reading between the lines.

here's the real problem

racists online know that they have to muddy the waters and plead plausible deniablity in order to skirt by, it's up to moderators and site management to be more diligent. some of these users would not be difficult at all to see through with a quick look through their histories

there's people on boards that allude to anti-semitic conspiracies with coded language but only end up getting hit when they post strraight up nazi shit (and only put in purg, not banned btw)

going out of my way to mark the posts would defeat the point i'm trying to make

-

i called the mods out on an unfair/preferential application of this site's rules

a veteran mod then replied that, nope, things are just and everything is pursued with equal zeal

so i then gave him (and others on the staff) the opportunity to prove so and - guess what - to absolutely nobody's surprise, what i (and many, many others have as well) called them out on turned out to be entirely true

their priorities are jacked

their standards are inconsistent

and their judgment is wholly unfair

-

and you keep citing this "unpaid volunteers" and "Volunteer Moderators" bullshit as if it means anything, yet very conveniently ignore (for some reason) that those very same "unpaid volunteers" locked those topics up with an almost unprecedented feverish pace and enthusiasm

I live rent free in Goats and Tails head too.

Tails keeps writing essays about me on that shitty subreddit and with goats egging him on.

On to joestarr, she definitely trolls hard. Gets butthurt when people disagree with them and publicly announces that she is blocking someone cause they didn't simp for her. Announcing the block does nothing, but antagonize people. Kinda hard to have sympathy for her since she keeps going on this trolling cycle.

That said, her "Christmas Gift" of popcorn to CE is well appreciated.

Little spoiler alert, there were probably many posts in that topic being reported, especially knowing Jo and other people in that topic. Because they were reported, the mods looked into. Then they locked it because the conversation was getting out of hand. I know this because this is quite literally how the mods describe most topics that they end up locking, and they have been consistent in stating that's why they lock topics, and because the nature of how the moderator queues works implies that is the most likely situation.

Instead of viewing the issue holistically and applying occam's razor, you have prejudged the situation to be something it almost certainly isn't. But that's your perogative, and that's why everyone is mocking you. You have an irrational grudge against authority figures. You will apply whatever the most conveniently derogative interpretation of events you can to their behavior. It's a sickness of the mind, but your fear of cognitive dissonance and insecurity will make you blind to this. After I post this, you'll probably keep iterating the same claims without providing additional context or evidence to support it. I understand why you'll do that, but that is no real comfort to me. So with this, I will say, good luck with your biases and shut the fuck up.

Especially when you look at the GameFAQs Archive and see how posts on CE from the early 2000s were virtually indistinguishable from those on LUE. Fuck, I once posted an example of an absurd LUE topic on here and didn't realize, until the TC of that topic pointed it out, that the topic was from CE.

I was warned, dude. Let it go.

Your warning made excellent popcorn.

I went to State Farm to get my mod protection plan. Not only did I get a personal email from SBAllen apologizing for previous moderations, but got his guarantee that I would be protected here in the future. Like a good neighbor, SBAllen is there.

I'm waiting for this topic to be deleted
