If anybody on this forum needs help they should consult the paperclip on Microsoft Word...very helpful.

 

It's like he has a personality of his own!

Just because you can't see a response, doesn't mean something isn't happening. None of you have access to the moderator's forum, so therefore none of you are aware of the discussions happening in there, and the ongoing issues which need resolving. The day to day running of this message board takes more than just posting a few messages & removing spam.

 

There are different responses to different events. Banning someone who keeps rejoining with new usernames every time is a pretty pointless excercise, so other plans have to be devised & actions taken. Plus, banning people is a last resort on this forum. You really have to push & push for us to turn round and take that action, or do something in extreme contravention of the T&C's.

 

Some threads/posts need moving straight away, others can be left whilst an issue is sorted.

 

Not every response requires the same action.

 

 

Okay, I've not posted in this thread yet, but I have just spent a good ten minutes of my life reading everything that's been said here, and I think that Jenjie has a fair point here, but so do other people when they say that there are other problems going on here, not just this one thread that got 'deleted'. But then I thought, is spamming a bit really as bad as making fun of someone who is dying with an incurable cancer? I don't think so. Neither are good, but spam doesn't normally offend of cause controversy, just annoyance. My two cents.

You clearly don't understand the concepts of "humour"

 

Making a joke out of it is not going LOL SHE IS DYING OF CANCER LOL DEATH LOLOLOLOLOL

 

Only a moron would think that

So you made a thread full of 'jokes' about a woman dying of cancer, and given the nature of jokes are to make people laugh because of humour, you did effectively make a thread to say "LOL SHE IS DYING OF CANCER LOL DEATH LOLOLOLOLOL"

 

So actually, I think your definition of humour in this case is different from a lot of other people on this board.

Way to continue being a fucking retard. I explained clearly enough that humour about supposed "touchy" subjects is not actually laughing at the thing that is touchy, I don't find it hilarious that she is dying, why would I? It's not funny. The jokes on the other hand were, see this thing called "humour" the beauty of it is that anything can be made funny when done right.

 

I'll re-iterate because you are clearly slow, the thread (which by the way you haven't actually read) was NOT. N.O.T. Full of "LOLOLOL JADE GOODY IS DYING"

Thing is though, that thread wasn't made in 'right way', and obviously the mod's agreed.

 

And to be honest, I don't think there's any need to call me a fucking retard, I've not said one bad thing about you, I've been impartial with my opinions on the whole. I thought maybe trying to take the high road would work with you, clearly I overestimated you.

 

Oh and as for being 'clearly slow' or a 'fucking retard', you're talking to the guy who's been getting straight A's at school/college/life for the past like 6 years or so.

And yes I did read your original thread, the first thing it did was point me to a website called IsJadeDeadYet. Fucking tasteful that is, humour overload.

it's the internet, you can't really say what's a joke and what's not.

 

it's not like we are all morons because we reply to what we read... we can't see you or see any gestures... and smileys doesn't really help

 

the thread was offensive and it was moved, it's not a big deal, get over it

  • Author

Kite is a moron, he is a mod.

 

You have said bad things about me actually, I have a good memory ;) How would taking the high road work with anyone?

 

LOL at you bringing grades into it, I honesty don't care and that doesn't mean anything at all in the way of common sense

That one was just the truth, to keep you informed about her current life status.

 

Lore: That post makes no sense at all, plus going on your "it's not a big deal" conclusion nothing matters at all, should we all just shut up and sit down in silence because conversation "doesn't matter"

If you've got a problem with everyone on this board being Morons, why not do everyone a favour and leave?

 

And taking the high road is normally the way to be polite, maybe not something you know about.

 

Common sense? Hmm I think I've got a pretty good grasp on that, always look both ways when crossing the road, always use protection, and don't make threads laughing at someone dying of cancer.

ahhhhrkjdshdgrfnv you can do these things when you are in your room with your friends who get your jokes...but not on the internet, on a message board with thousands of members....get it?

so, you can post whatever you want, even if it's really offensive or not allowed and then if someone complains about it you say that it was just humour?

 

that's what doesn't make sense

 

 

calling someone a penis is one thing, but this was too much

You and Kite aren't "everyone"

 

Hahaha, thanks for making me laugh if nothing else

You know, you guys have said NOTHING to answer concerns other than "it was offensive and it was moved" "common sense" "you cannot joke about that" "SOMEBODY IS WRONG ON THE INTERNETS".

 

You didn't even answer my post well! Good job for making a mainly useless statement with a general feel of "just shut the hell up and stop asking us questions" :cheesy:

Banning someone who keeps rejoining with new usernames every time is a pretty pointless excercise

 

"IP banning"

"IP banning"

people can get around IP bans just to let you know

I know that but some people don't know how, do they?

considering a thread offensive is a good reason to remove it

 

"SOMEBODY IS WRONG ON THE INTERNETS".

 

I've heard that joke here at least 20 times... funny the first time, now quite boring

Look I've kept quiet on this but I'm gonna add my two cents.

 

We do whatever we deem necessary to make this an enjoyable place, but we cannot please everyone, we just can't.

 

I would have moved that thread had I seen it first too, for reasons which are entirely obvious.

 

All this demanding answers and throwing accusations just smacks of ingratitude to me. You all come here every single day and take advantage of this board like it just appeared here as if by magic one day, with absolutely no consideration to the time/effort/money that goes into it.

 

I understand that we do things sometimes that you may not agree with or don't understand, but we're trying our hardest to make this place somewhere people feel comfortable coming to. Believe it or not we're not just here to try and piss you off, exactly the opposite.

 

I can't believe what this thread has turned into.

Yay! My suggestions packed into statements get taken as accusations and demands and I get called inconsiderate by moderators! :cheesy:

 

All I said before was a) when you make statements, don't fill them with empty and "be quiet no more discussion on this kthx"-esque sentences, because Jenjie's first statement, in your terms, "smacked" of them. I pointed this out as a *helpful suggestion* and Nathan wonders why the hell his thread got removed, both of us get called answer demanding. I have never asked much more other than some small explanation as to what the hell was going on in some cases and tried to vocalise my opinion. I've tried my utmost best to bring some intelligent discussion to this forum and abide by the rules, like any other good forum member. Yet I get called "ungrateful". The last site I was on that had this sort of thing going on quickly became populated by members aged 7-14, stunk of just "hey look at mah ms painted neon colord artz wolfies!" "zomg so cool!" and did not cater for any older members that actually wanted to talk something other than crappy wolf art, "ZOMGZ DRAMA!" and have a nice healthy discussion and debate (Yeah, I'm talking about you, BaltoSource, once good website turned crap).

 

Look, I realise that a forum of 37,000+ members is going to be hard to moderate. Fair enough. There is going to be a chockload of spam and personal problems that have to be sorted out as well as the occaisonal troll and general sucky thread. b) Personally, I did not find Nathan's jokes offending, as he has stated many many times before whatever he says on the forum is often entirely joking and definitely not to be taken seriously, and he wasn't all "LOLOLOL JADE GOODY HAS CANCER NAO SHE IS GUNNA DIE ROFLOLMAOZOMGHAHA".

 

Then people took him seriously when he joked about cancer - if I didn't know Nathan always was kidding around, sure, I might be offended, I might say "dude - not cool" and if I had the choice of action to be taken, lock thread, but that decision is not up to me. Another point I was trying to make before, was that to me the Cyanide & Happiness thread created by myself was way more insulting than just making a joke about cancer once. I will show you how many times it jokes about something serious.

Starving children!

 

Or even the Dead Baby Jokes thread, as revived earlier by Rolle.

 

Yet both are still open and being posted in. Or is this because nobody has complained yet about the Dead Baby Jokes one and/or the fact that the mods actually enjoy reading C&H, despite all it's gory glory? Seems very double-standard filled to me.

But the internet is SRS BUSINESS :cry:
