U.S. Politics January 2023: Kevin McCarthy's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Life

It was meant for the Contemporary Christian Music thread

Sorry!

ok

This is minor but if anyone is around could you please add the word POLL to the end of the title of this thread please? Just conscious it looks like a duplicate of an older, more venerable thread.

If Only I Could Remember My Name

ha, good call (n.b. I am not a mod)

Ja

Ta

It's not a huge deal, but maybe a mod could remove the link here (forgot to surround it with image tags).

ok

Thanks!

hi can we lock this thread? i started a part 2.

Yup.

tyvm!

hi i would like my post here deleted if possible: Doggystyle POLL

i'm just a music fan who got excited by hearing an old favorite again, wasn't trying to "start anything"

thanks and apologies

you were definitely not at fault for JackAssFruit and what he posted, if it matters any.

yeah was gonna say you'd have no clue he would take it that direction

Why isn’t that user banned, was it not a known troll account already? We don’t have to wait for FPs for those I thought?

He only posts every two weeks or so so people forget about him I think

But yeah could we bounce him plz

Interesting case. Obviously trying to be provocative/trollish but not doing a very good job of it. Outside the top 10 in Most Flagged Posters, and today's offense only roused five people to smash that FP button. Sure, I'll ban him. But the banworthiness goalpost has definitely moved, and imo it's appropriate that unilateral mod action remain a lagging, not leading, indicator. The ILX community as a whole has two tools to make their opinions known, and seems for the most part to have put one of them away.

I’m all for zero tolerance when it comes to this stuff

his language was provocative, but the song in question is incredibly fucked up and misogynistic.

Agree with WmC here. Yes, worth a ban, but I'm uncomfortable with moving back toward us being the decision-makers without FP support. We have reduced the numbers for a temp-ban, so please smash that button if you think something is ban-worthy! (Also like & subscribe)

(When I say we've reduced the numbers, I mean ages ago when we hashed out a bunch of shit, not recently without telling anyone)

yes I think that’s totally reasonable and if the community acts responsibly then the FPs should be taking care of this stuff. I’m just having trouble squaring it with the idea of someone totally not FPing obviously toxic posts because of whatever reason. To me if we’re emphasizing the FP system, then there really is a responsibility for users to FP when it’s necessary to protect the community and avoid the situation where posters who can’t help themselves feed the troll. So when mods step in it kinda absolves the community as a whole from taking care of business. I don’t know,
I’m sure that all sounds insane and pompous

maybe the issue is if someone is trolling/making toxic posts in threads very few posters see?

90% of my posts in here are from the "flagging" app, which has no "flag post" option, otherwise I would have flagged him too.

xp sarahell otm

yeah i think today was the first time i've heard of jackassfruit? i might have forgotten something

zero-value posters like that should be taken out immediately imo, total extreme prejudice

but that's what they said about nabisco. zero value. nothing was on the mark. it was a total disaster. but post by post, it all started to make sense

Yeah I haven’t seen this guy’s posts much but they seem all to be like that? I guess the argument I would have is, why keep him?

Also, I use zing 99% of the time and the fp function iirc isn’t picked up on that

hi i'm bad at emotional intelligence and understanding context, so i thought the "stop" and "FPed" were directed at me. again: wasn't trying to "start anything" and certainly wasn't trying to get anyone kicked out.

(thought i might have upset someone a while back when i mentioned the problematic nature of the song but still had praise for it)

thanks for listening.

All this could have been avoided if the user in question had called "Ain't No Fun" definitely the worst paean etc. etc.

...that's why I avoid sarcasm.

Austin, you were fine, honestly.

CAAL & Gyac - I didn't know that about the apps, sorry. I don't know much about the techy side of the site at all. It worries me that I'm one of the last mods standing when I only really signed up to help people change thread titles and edit posts. I don't know how any of this shit works!

i support getting emil.y and mods support! i wish that i could step up to it and help myself but i don't think that would be a good idea. but it might be time for some new mods and there are lots of good options

i'm sorry Austin, I should have written xpost before my post so that you knew it wasn't you I was talking to

Also, I use zing 99% of the time and the fp function iirc isn’t picked up on that
