if an ilx beef threatens to take over a perfectly innocent thread you can politely direct people here.

you never know. it might work. hug it out. strangle each other. here. just for future reference. for when people are just looking for a fight and the victim is everyone else who doesn't care that much. hahahaha! just kidding. love you all. except that one guy.

(was this one for those wondering)

(jesus I did this a lot, huh)

this is bullshit and will never work btw

come @ me :P

lol at the idea that the beef on the rolling standup thread was disrupting an otherwise civil and productive conversation

People beef a lot, huh.

also some people seem to be claiming "beef" as the cause of an argument as a way of dismissing the points being made in the argument

this is for beef not meta cluster analysis. get it RIGHT.

"this is bullshit and will never work btw"

lol are you beefing with my beef beef? yeah it will never work probably. but that's why i said this is for future reference. in case of fire...

i am not beefing with you but i am not crazy about some of the thoughts behind this thread concept

I like the sandy vagina thread

beefy beefy beef

if an ilx beef threatens to take over a perfectly innocent beef thread you can politely direct people here.

i hope no one beefs on my sandy vagina

lol

the beef side stays beef and the vagina side stays sandy

the McBlV

we used to have the rolling clusterfuck threads but they always went downhill. naturally enough

kevin: i wasn't equating. i said that she was out of order and he was way fucking out of order. what he did was far worse. but that doesn't make what she did right.

RIP Achewood ;_;

achewood is not dead

yeah maybe we should switch. beefing in the comedy thread, comedy in the beefing thread and then we'll all reconvene at 4 for tea and biscuits

those guys are being beef jerkies imo

i tried, but i'm just beefing on my own

appreciate yr efforts tho

otm

thanks, Mord

wtf's up with ilx lately

Summer got too hot too quickly. At least for those of us in the northern hemisphere.

ahem

at this point neither of the people involved in the specific beef being discussed are actually posting here or trying to work out their issues with each other so I'm not sure what function this conversation is serving beyond "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH"

It's not which is what I was trying to say. The whole reason I posted earlier was AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH but sometimes you can only read this stuff so many times before resorting to that, you know?

mh- ilxor user mordy was outed a misogynist bully on tweets from wcc's twitter. AF seems to think that

i) This is fine
ii) mordy shouldn't call this out, tho it's a public forum
iii) other ilxors shouldn't be talkin about this because of the poster involved

There are enough people who either enjoy a pile-on or like to provoke known-to-be-sensitive posters in an inflammatory way. Not calling anyone out in particular here but to act like it's just a problem with one poster and that poster alone is kind of disingenuous. Without wanting to give anyone a free pass.

Otherwise I'm not sure what benefit these sort of trial-by-ILX threads serve really.

fwiw if anyone was complaining about me publicly on twitter/facebook/whatever and i found out about it, i would probably go retweet the offending tweet or "like" the facebook post (god kill me now) just to acknowledge that i saw it. because bringing it beyond ilx is lame. no apologies

http://www.rocktheboatmarketing.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/TwitterStalkerNet1.jpg

matt i acknowledge that, but seriously you're advocating 'ignore the twitter-ilx meta because it's wcc'

but really just wanna say that even though ENBB doesn't think much of me, she has been pretty gd otm itt

amon otm

tbrr i have never found it difficult to avoid getting into fights w/ wcc on ilx or off ilx, not that i dont understand what people are complaining about but at the same time its like

yeah, i mean, don't engage - agreed

but sometimes that's not that simple

ilx is clearly not good for wcc

*waits for the rest of max's post*

WCC's diktat that people not talk about suicide on a thread about ending your own existence was stupid.

Mordy fucking with her over that was pointlessly aggressive and condescending

those two apparently hate each other

so, here we are.

xp

(✿◠‿◠) (╯︵╰,) RIP

did the flower die?? :(

I want to know where Mordy started 'mansplaining' mostly. Because he is a man, talking to a woman, is that always mansplaining? Did goole just mansplain to all of us? It's a dumb term anyway but using it for every instance you don't agree with just makes all women look bad.

matt i acknowledge that, but seriously you're advocating 'ignore the twitter-ilx meta because it's wcc'

I said 'without wanting to give anyone a free pass'.

yr posts failure to put said beef in well known larger context renders it fairly meaningless, goole, sir

mordy: "all women *are* bad"

iirc

sometimes i think wcc really comes from a good place and rightfully and deservingly calls people out for being genuinely misogynist or sexist. but then she turns around and posts threads fetishizing yorke before flipping out when someone dares to refer to a female musician as "attractive".

but i have a penis so i'm just mansplaining here, sorry guys

? i said they hate each other!

xp oh jon don't even

Are we done here? Can we please be done here? Especially now with the popcorn.gifs coming out.

oh i'm sorry for calling a bullshit double standard

xp oh yeah, there is genuine misogyny, I believe that. But when you find it everywhere I get such a 'boy who called wolf' vibe that drives me insane, because it undermines all of us.

mansplaining? has this turned into another thread about shaving your balls?

? i said they hate each other!

http://i50.tinypic.com/69f3mh.png

but sorry for my gifing, lets let this thread die awhile before new beef curtains

fuck why did i even

? i said they hate each other!

them hating each other is prob a. not even true b. not v informative as far as understanding what happened!

mansplaining? has this turned into another thread about shaving your balls?

when a male poster says something wcc doesn't like, she asks them to stop "mansplaining" things to her

i agree with jon that men's rights are under attack and it isn't fair

Beef curtains is literally the worst euphemism in all the world. Let's just move on if only to prevent anyone else from using it. PLEASE?!

OH KEVIN GTFO

sorry but I don't really think that's what he was saying

i don't know how helpful it is to chime in here, neither do I really want to stand around not saying anything, so... Anyway, I've had similar confrontations with WCC in only the last couple of weeks - ones which have escalated extremely rapidly from polite thread conversation > assumed insinuation > belligerent and wilful misunderstandings > aggressive accusations > seeing myself being bitched about on Twitter, and while it's frustrating and upsetting to be accused of advocating misogyny/sexual abuse/and more because of some minor incompatibility of views on some band or other, seeing it aired in places outside of ILX is, well it's pretty shocking when you come across it.
What I'm more concerned about is why this seems to be happening so often. I've met and gotten along very well with WCC in the past (several years ago now) - she's a thoroughly nice person IRL and I'm therefore alarmed at the way some of these beefs appear to escalate. It's never been my intention to cause pile-ons or act like (too much of) a dick on this board, and somehow I still end up in that maelstrom - being called out for pretty much anything I post that doesn't quite jibe with the poster's particular point of view. I love a heated and healthy debate, but when labels and accusations are thrown around in a personal manner, it goes from fun to sad very very quickly. When a poster's genuine attempts to make peace and get back on track with a thread are immediately thrown back in their face with even uglier accusations, that's the tipping point where the issue has to be addressed (as on this thread) - especially when it's not only disrupting the flow of conversation but actively upsetting other people and even putting a mark on their character, usually undeserved.

I love that mordy is trying to defend himself about not being a misogynist when his twitter avatar is a CRYING WOMAN

i do not however agree with jon's previously stated advocacy of race war

eh look it was my impression that mordy didn't like or respect WCC very much before this and they had bad history here.

but this isn't even something i should be butting into, in my opinion, so i'm going to drop it.

xxp it's alice, u illiterate

; )

oh dear god

I am so sorry.
