Thought this sort of campaigning was modfrowndupon

it definitely used to be

I'm not saying I disagree yunnerstand

OK, fair enough

Hate to see legit ones removed on technicality

well then, final proof that "FP is the same as SB" isn't true

ahem, needed in the Swans thread

again?

yes it's taken a turn for the ugly again

fyi this is still a thing that can be done.

Is it plugged in to a working ban function is the question imo

can we confirm this thing still works?

as much as it ever did

ilx wants a cognitive dissonance knob they can turn all the way down

CogDis: + | -

It still works. Is there a particular situation that needs attention? You haven't FP'd anyone in a week according to the log.

I was expecting at least 50 others to FP my targets by now.

Oh, ye have a fuckin log showing the fps given have ye, a pity it doesnt add them up and ban fuckers anymore the way it used to says i

It does add them up, darragh! Nobody's at 51 at the moment. Last one was Racoon Tanuki. We've banned a couple of other posters since then based on an ugly racist joke (Once-ler) or repeated homophobic bullshit that attracted huge waves of flags (Hungry4). We've given out a few temporary thread bans to people who needed to cool out for a minute. But 51 is still the cut-off and no one's there at the moment.

how did you come up with that number

It's a disgrace's what it is

xp nnif nnif nnif nnif nnif

I didn't come up with the number. It's from the annals of ilx history. I'd have to go back and figure that out because I honestly don't remember.

We do check out all the flagged posts though, at least on a somewhat regular basis. And most of the time a post has been flagged because someone is just being annoying. And when the posts do seem like they warrant some attention, we'll discuss it and try to do something about it, but mostly we're pretty hands off. If there's something that needs to be addressed, there's always the moderator request forum or if you don't feel comfortable calling people out in public, you could shoot one of us an email too.

see this is what i'm saying with my cogdis theory

Flag post I thought was for abusive, offensive posters... not just bad posters or annoying posters. like that beanbag guy obviously annoys a great deal of ppl on this board but I can never understand what the hell he's saying and I doubt it's abusive or actually offensive or whatever.

I considered flagging that trailer NV posted for Law Abiding Citizen, because that movie obviously stinks to high heaven.

flag post is a way of providing negative feedback for bad netflix recommendations. how I use it, anyway.

lately I've had trouble determining whether a poster being annoying deserves an FP when that annoyance is focused toward a single poster for a significant duration. Isn't that harassment? I try to not think about it too much and just FP. Seems to take something awful to reach 51, anyway.

that's how I roll

Just fp and relaaaaaax

i tend to flag every post in every thread i read, but no one ever winds up banned

thanks, obama

Nothing helps me relax like a good fp.

bliiiiinded by your thighs

^annoying post directed at Old Lunch's dn. worthy of an fp? almost certainly just do it.

it occurred to me that OL's dn may already have its roots in the phrase "blinded by your thighs" and this would be worse than that hotdogs-and-beer-serving restaurant which took the name "Frank and Stein's" as if it is a pun on Frankenstein.

let's use this today

i know just the thread

Please, give generously.

The truth, you can't handle it

to bag the benb forthwith

Im not a betting man but im p sure we'll get 51 from that one post by midnight local time.

And it will be glorious. Thanking gobnebb for his sacrifice

50 seems a weird number to try to beat today though.

i don't think i've ever used it but i will contribute because i feel it's all i can do

I found the post in question. Jumps out the moment you see it. Flagged. Would have flagged a dozen times, if I thought it would be a dozen times more effective.
