It's no personal beef: like I say, the guy is on my Facebook friends' list. I have no grudge, I just think that the combo of white guy in fancy dress as Lil Wayne + hanging out with fat chicks is kinda of "funny because it's true" to a lot of zingtone posters. I'd rather not have it on ILE because that might mean he'd start posting, and from what I know of his message board behaviour he ain't the kinda dude to Keep It Positive. Up to you JJ.

fwiw, as i alluded on the other thread, this guy has posted on ILX a few times in the past year or so, so not really a regular but probably does fall under 'board meta' guidelines in that respect. i haven't told him about that thread or invited him to jump into the fray but depending on whether people think that's a good or terrible idea i might do that.

anyway maybe i'll invite him in a few days if this hasn't blown over by then -- going "merry xmas! btw dudes on a secret board on ILX are all lolling over pictures from your facebook" would be kinda weird.

ha, it's all good. i didn't get to see the removed thread but you know. if i was shy about fat chicks these pics wouldn't exist. doesn't bug me, they're funny pics. doing it secretly is a little eh but such is the internet. i'd do the same to dom if dom didn't mysteriously take me off his fbook by the time i saw these. watch out you ol' chubby chaser. happy new year

uh, okay? i mean, that wasn't on my agenda? Considering you've been posting forever, I dunno why I would need to tell you something you already know? Anyone else who has only been posting for a few years or somehow confined themselves to ILM or sports boards and wasn't here for "lol fat ppl" and "is this chick something i would put my dick in y or n" posts and threads -- they can use the pretty well designed search function.

no one is saying "how awful everything" was though. they're saying "this specific aspect of old ilx was bad". this is certainly no worse than whatever it is you do whenever anyone makes that kind of point, which is to make a bit of a sophistic argument against that sentiment which is always vague

theRZA the JZA and the NDB (darraghmac), Friday, 13 September 2019 19:59 (four years ago) link

it was better when there were more voices expressing lively opinions & individual perspectives, to be sure. however, many of the now-absent voices were encouraged to leave BY the fat jokes & fag-calling. many others have left for their own IRL reasons, not because of a more polite atmosphere. it’s a furphy to conclude that ILX would be better now if we still had three funny assholes and 12 boring assholes, whether or not we still had a hundred interesting & smart ppl who have also gone.

a lot of good posters don't post here anymore or hardly ever post. thinking about heavyweights like max read or nabisco, not dom passantino - who could be funny, but ultimately was legitimately abusive to a number of posters. this is why ilx isn't as good

no one is saying "how awful everything" was though. they're saying "this specific aspect of old ilx was bad".

I thought I made it pretty clear. Even Dom and some of the other problematic posters (e.g. Cankles) had some classic threads where they weren't shitheads.

sarahell, Friday, 13 September 2019 20:23 (four years ago) link

And we're definitely not going to reach any consensus over who were the best posters who are now sadly missed.

a lot of us will have started at least one morally dubious shit thread in 2008, but the standard protocol is to deny their existence, never revive them, and pray that they never pop up in dmac's random thread results. sanskrit did the opposite, effectively turning himself in for a crime that he'd gotten away with for the past eleven years. was he high or...?

dripping in fennesz (sanskrit), Saturday, 23 November 2019 00:07 (four years ago) link

so you're saying that when you said "jewtube" you meant the actual jewtube.com that was formed in 2006 that hardly anybody in 2008 used which for some reason would have had a McDonald's video with Oz Mutantes, neither of which have any connection to Hebrew culture at all?

i'm not saying anything, i don't know who you are, and i don't do ping pong matches with intellectual inferiors. i think i now understand what's going on, there is a certain type of disposable personality attracted to moderation. it's like when JW got banned for life for telling TOMBOT the truth, that he was an aspie cuck. carry on.

A is for (Aimless), Saturday, 23 November 2019 02:13 (four years ago) link

just so I'm clear about this. JW was permabanned for aiming a particular insult at another ILXor and now you are joining JW in making that same insult to the same ILXor, which I can only interpret as expressing a wish to be permabanned.

ok. fp'd. good luck on your ambition to get 51'd or just kicked off ILX asap. I did my bit.
