FP: Should 31 be the new 51 y/n

Unban Dom

I missed having this discussion. I see everybody has really reflected on their positions and is in listening mode now, well done all, for a while I thought the anti-banning crowd were rigid ideologues who'd wholly immunized themselves against discourse

the next best thing to fp would be if everyone just ignored the shitposts leaving a trail of droppings to step around instead of “engaging “ them which just gets you too covered in shit

I also must have disengaged enough from the general life of the board as to have NO idea why people are saying it's so awful. I'm here several times a day I feel like it's pretty ok? Easy enough to avoid shitty threads?

The shitposts > the mediocre posts it's like when Michelle Pfeiffer is the teacher and you know by the end it's the real stinker of a pupil you'll be rooting for

yeah I have no complaints really, existing fp process seems to be working fine.

and this place doesn't seem nearly as hostile/full of unrepentant assholes as it used to be 10+ years ago

xp

Well look let's not go there

we’re just more subtly about how we phrase things

the word "shitpost" is one of the worst things about the present era and its use should be met with Stalinesque vigor

Your horse, it is high

I thought this thread was mostly ppl wondering why the thread was made in the first place

Plus turrican bashing

"Shitposting" is actually the perfect term for my posting style, really

ON THE MF MONEY

i HATE this phrase

Love is a shitpost, to quote a phrase

Are yiz angry at 'shitpost' or angry at shitposting if the former unjust question your priorities

yeah i'm against whatever the phrase describes but it makes my skin crawl, i hate it, i hate that it's become ubiquitous so quickly

shitpost just has the wrong mouthfeel

lol

ok now im dizzy

i also dislike shitpost, it sounds so angry and entitled

it isn't a phrase, though. we can agree on this at least?

it's a compound neologism

Explaimless vmic

it seemed more positive than "not a phrase"

lol i see we're getting a lot done here

It was. Just throwing in a little compound neologism of my own. An onimologism.

I would categorize yours as more of a portmanteau neologism, but let's not permit a little disagreement like that to come between us, ok?

entitled? everyone shit(post)s

the people have already spoken on the issue of banning vs laissez fair/anarchic hands off modding

https://www.ilxor.com/ILX/ThreadSelectedControllerServlet?boardid=77&threadid=100687

you have to recognize when lag∞n is just having bad ideas

smh mods the people have spoken

People forget about this moment of executive overreach.

I haven’t forgotten.

I read a couple of other sites where people have weighed in revealing some of our ‘funny’ ex-members as real-life abusers, and conversely some ppl who left really are pretty chill and I wish them well, so the system works well enough

I’ll tell lagoon

he knows and is ok

and if not I think I know where he’s at and I have vacay days to go hang and tell him irl

keep everyone banned it maintains the fiction that they still want to post here, if they could

although i really like this take from lamp, this does make us look pretty cool

otm

eek I am sorry about my diction I just wanted to turrican bash. ilx is mostly good these days but the exceptions glare

honestly I have little sympathy for people complaining about awful posters on threads about The Beatles or U.S. Politics. It goes with the territory.

it's like complaining about displays of autism on a year-end poll thread

If both jclc and estela refuse to endorse shitpost as a term then it is hereby rescinded

it's like complaining about displays of autism on a year-end poll thread

wow this is, like, a bullshit way to put that

"shitpost" IS shorter than "post where someone claims the last 4 Tarantino movies were good"

turrican should be forced to change his display name because "turrican 2" is such an awesome game i can't bring myself to hate him no matter how much stupid shit he posts

unban guybrush threepwood

Keep on Turrican'

rusho otm, turrican ii rules

it's like complaining about displays of autism on a year-end poll thread
