Missin U <3 - lamentations for those felled by the SB

Cos he's NRQ and he had 2 logins that accrued 51 across them (so sez the log).

xpo

ah see I don't know who NRQ is - I'll have to do some sarahel type digging

who is history mayne?

ah xp

also don't know who NRQ is

"special guest stars mark bronson"

it was the same dude?

i know that user name for sure but i can't link any specific posts to the anme

lol *name obv

he and history mayne, yes
xxp

for all the talk about "30 days is the norm but it's ultimately left to the mods' discretion," they should be like yeah, this was funny but shouldnt have happened, sorry you 51 dorks

^this

this is fucked up

i mean, i like both these guys. seems like sb's capture ppl who get in fights as much as anything

Jeez, unban LJ already, c'mon. Look at his posts over the past year, and compare them to any idea of what SBs are for. It doesn't line up.

Shit, give 30 of his SBs to me, I'll carry the weight for awhile.

Christ died for your SBs

i hereby swear that i would like lj to return to this board

dudes i get what you are saying, but there have been people that wanted cankles back right away, or NRQ, or tuomas, or morbs. this isnt any different than those cases, other than the fact that lj (and yeah, i dont necc understand why) has gotten more sbs than any other person on the board at this point. my personal opinions dont outweigh the 52 people that sbed him this time, and neither does anyone elses.

also if you've sbed people, you kind of have to respect that other peeps get to do the same thing, and almost everyone on this thread has at least a few (sometimes a lot) of sbs they've thrown out there. if you are going to use the system, you cant complain when someone you would prefer to stay gets the 51.

make the LJ sb list public

JJJusten, I hear what you're saying, but let's not forget the famous verse "And then JC said 'Let your SBs disappear like dew at 10am - the time for retribution has long passed. Let us forgive. Your SBs should be as cotton, once thorny and the cause of bloody hands, and now a fundamental element of soft, comfortable t-shirts."

- JC 23:12

IT'S IN THE BIBLE PEOPLE

yeah, i'm not criticizing the sb system, just saying dudes should come back after a reasonable amount of time because they contribute a lot

But yeah, I hear what you're saying. I don't envy anyone who has to make mod decisions on the SB issue, it's not an easy position to be in.

still john, you (the mods) should be able to veto a dumb SB.

1) how old are some of the sb's

2) this is not really like a lot of those ppl because the point of sb is to indicate to posters that their behavior needs to change--as we all know lj is a totally different poster these days (having learned his lesson from 2 priors) and i haven't seen him be offensive or be a dick at all in recent memory (i mean maybe he has on threads i haven't opened). so he modified his behavior and this happened again anyway, and that has to be a result of "who he is" not "what he has posted"

come on guys, just think of all the great display names you can come up with. every cloud has its silver lining.

i feel comfortable saying that this is not going to become a permaban for lj (and def not for NRQ since its the first time its happened), but no matter what i think about either situation, it'll be a month for NRQ and at least a month for lj.

uh bunches of xposts

btw akaik there are lots of regular posters in the 40s right now who have NO habitual, repeated pattern of being offensive or dickish--we are going to get to have this conversation again pretty soon

good point xxp

call all destroyer, i think the problem is that what you are saying is a matter of personal opinion, not fact.

or not being there when someone pulls a dick move, or whatever. looking at the people in the 40s and the sbs they have gotten, theres stuff in there for every one of them that is pretty easy to read as dickish/offensive tbh

and speaking from personal opinion, there are posters with minimal sbs that i think are totally obnoxious assholes. this is kind of exactly why my (or your) personal taste doesnt have a whole lot to do with how the sb deal works.

i mean yeah you're right but the longer the system is in place without old sb's getting erased it will be less and less obvious why regular posters are getting kicked off the site

I think we should be able to SB sitewide admins. Just to spice it up a tad, you know?

old sbs do get erased at 6 months

also, you can SB sitewide admins! it just doesnt lead to an autoban. let your freak flag fly tho!

ok--i did not know that. thank you jjj.

<3 almost cut my hair xpost

the 6 month thing was added because of some of the worries about long term accrual for posters that just had a jerk frenzy once in a blue moon. to put everything out on the table, the current leniency (ie not necessarily lengthening ljs timeout after round three) has a lot to do with some concerns that the time stamping on old bans might be inaccurate.

i meant they probably are, but until we hit the first six month point we cant be absolutely sure. NOTE: i am way too stupid to code anything, so i am just passing on my limited understanding of the programming side here, so smarter people may show up to correct me.

make the LJ sb list public

alternatively whiney i could make the list of people you SB'd public

well alright

would make a good poll

it would probably be quicker if just listed the four or five ppl i HAVENT gotten around to SBing yet

shit you ain't kidding

I used to post under another name, but I got permabarred.

I made do at the 77 World of Text for a while, but it disappeared. I'll miss reading about and from LOJa, but i miss all sorts of things.

everything isn't like it used to be anymore these days and I don't know why I continue keeping on trying to find something that makes me feel like it used to be like it was before all these things started changing.

Hey, just to make a ILM post before I go, I was about to listen to that song "Here's Where the Story Ends." Not bad.

:o

i'm pretty sure i have sb'd lj for some stupid shit or something. Then i saw that warning that pops up and was like lol this guy will always be on ilx.

I am bemused that the ppl who hit the SB button the most are the ones who cry like babbies when the function, you know, like, does what it's supposed ter.
