a thread of serious discussion re ethan's permaban for image spamming

this shit is clusterfun

yo john I know you hate me but I tried to have a rational discussion about this on the unban lj thread over the past week. I saw the writing on the wall, and I thought the people who were anti-sb were being kinda namby-pamby about their opposition so maybe I overdid it (yeah I overdid it). but I also tried to bring forward what I thought were workable solutions and not be a dick about things.

I didn't think this point would come so soon, but I really don't need to slam the sb system anymore, its problems are self-evident.

I don't hate you, I know modding is thankless shitwork, hope you can drop beef, peace I'm out.

dude, i dont hate you. i dont hate anyone on ilx. the most personal feeling i had towards you was one of mild irritation in that i thought you were being kind of bizzaro obstinate on the SB thread. we cool.

wonder if mike jones phone number still works, or if anyone other than his mum rings him. let's hope he's still tippin' at least.

one love

let the healing begin

If Ethan and Dom are not already posting on this thread, i'd be stunned.

But who have they taken over?

i dunno dogg you can take over my balls no homo

See what I did there?

Revealed!

I want to watch The Thing now

this whole affair has brought more lols than the old 'shout for moderator' threads. i dont say this lightly. ty every1 ^o^

a dude who registered 30 seconds before popping up on an IMP thread to tell us that the board is gay, so, you know, pick your sockpuppet suspect but i dont think his contributions will be missed

dont think he just registered since he started this thread here: dom passatino. i dissagree.

weird huh seems like curtis is claiming to be michael, why would he do that... someone should ask curtis has anyone seen him post yet today...

the dangerous side of sockpuppetry

yeah i was just reporting what i had been told about the registration, working on it

test

thanks john!

Tell us about what it's like to be michael

& I won't play dice with sockpuppets no more, at least not on serious threads

that is a pretty good thread he started in 2008 -- i think you should bring him back

to prove that ilx is a place of redemption and hope, i am glad to report that "michael" has been pulled back from the danger zone and may now post at will.

xpostsss hahaha no prob

yesssssssssssss

what happened? I am confused

well at least tuomas is back

why isn't Morbs around to enjoy this? I smell conspiracy.

what happened? I am confused

I'm not sure whether you saw the Passive Agressive Notes thread but that is now like the funniest sentence of all time to me.

um yes. I was making a joke.

although re: sb clusterfuck my general reaction is, in fact, genuinely of the "what happened? I am confused" variety.

aw poor elmo

he saw red and charged into the maw

i dont' think I'd ever notice the disappearance of anyone on ILX unless it was pointed out to me

I never gave a damn about the meter man until I was the one who had to read the meters

Yes yes when we all are suggest banned out of existence we will regret not giving a shit about LJ, deeznuts, burt_stanton, gabbneb, Tuomas, Ethan and Dom being banned. Until then though I'm not going to be bothered.

elmo ;_;

elmo has a temp ban

LJ, deeznuts, burt_stanton

these guys were all terrible

Dom I didn't even notice. Ethan is a jerk but whatever. Tuomas is just a weirdo, unnecessarily obtuse but I don't see why he should be banned. Gabbneb apparently did some legitimately lame ass shit so its cool with me.

er gabbneb's being banned is cool with me, I mean

you should probably unban elmo - point taken i think

lol at that throughout this whole thing everyone can coalesce around keeping gabbneb away

I was planning on unbanning him when I got home.

seriously where is this log of who has how many temp bans and shit, I am in the dark

Except Edward III. For him gabbneb's banning is a SIGN OF THINGS TO COME!

shakey you have 49 sbs, it's posted on mod req forum

haha

oh wait

50

RIP shakey - when does it end?

its all his girlfriends fault anyway, if only she had known who kevin smith was

Shakey:

ppl have been asking mods for their totals, which were either emailed or posted on a 77 thread where people explicitly wanted to share their numbers.

So really it's Kevin Smith's fault. So much to answer for.

Thursday, March 5, 2009 4:05 PM One of the Most High Profile Comedy Directors of the 90s (Shakey Mo Collier) has been banned permanently.

It seems to not occur to the tiny shouty minority on these threads that just maybe a lot of regs are keeping right out of it because if nothing else we'd rather not have our heads shot off in the SB crossfire, among other things?

PS despite our shared animosity Ive never sbed ethan and wouldnt. I did SB Dom though (weeks ago as it happens, not because of this shit). And Im pleased to see it counted, if people want to defend the "democratic" SB system. Thanking u.
