the next best thing to fp would be if everyone just ignored the shitposts leaving a trail of droppings to step around instead of “engaging “ them which just gets you too covered in shit

I also must have disengaged enough from the general life of the board as to have NO idea why people are saying it's so awful. I'm here several times a day I feel like it's pretty ok? Easy enough to avoid shitty threads?

The shitposts > the mediocre posts it's like when Michelle Pfeiffer is the teacher and you know by the end it's the real stinker of a pupil you'll be rooting for

Gary Synaesthesia (darraghmac), Wednesday, 1 November 2017 22:39 (six years ago) link

yeah I have no complaints really, existing fp process seems to be working fine.

and this place doesn't seem nearly as hostile/full of unrepentant assholes as it used to be 10+ years ago

xp

Well look let's not go there

Gary Synaesthesia (darraghmac), Wednesday, 1 November 2017 22:47 (six years ago) link

we’re just more subtly about how we phrase things

mh, Wednesday, 1 November 2017 22:56 (six years ago) link

the word "shitpost" is one of the worst things about the present era and its use should be met with Stalinesque vigor

Your horse, it is high

brimstead, Wednesday, 1 November 2017 23:08 (six years ago) link

I thought this thread was mostly ppl wondering why the thread was made in the first place

Plus turrican bashing

brimstead, Wednesday, 1 November 2017 23:09 (six years ago) link

"Shitposting" is actually the perfect term for my posting style, really

i HATE this phrase

flappy bird, Wednesday, 1 November 2017 23:29 (six years ago) link

Love is a shitpost, to quote a phrase

you are juror number 144 and we will excuse you (Sufjan Grafton), Thursday, 2 November 2017 00:02 (six years ago) link

Are yiz angry at 'shitpost' or angry at shitposting if the former unjust question your priorities

Gary Synaesthesia (darraghmac), Thursday, 2 November 2017 00:05 (six years ago) link

yeah i'm against whatever the phrase describes but it makes my skin crawl, i hate it, i hate that it's become ubiquitous so quickly

flappy bird, Thursday, 2 November 2017 00:31 (six years ago) link

shitpost just has the wrong mouthfeel

assawoman bay (harbl), Thursday, 2 November 2017 00:32 (six years ago) link

flappy bird, Thursday, 2 November 2017 00:34 (six years ago) link

i also dislike shitpost, it sounds so angry and entitled

estela, Thursday, 2 November 2017 00:46 (six years ago) link

it isn't a phrase, though. we can agree on this at least?

it's a compound neologism

Chunky Backgammon (onimo), Thursday, 2 November 2017 01:09 (six years ago) link

it seemed more positive than "not a phrase"

A is for (Aimless), Thursday, 2 November 2017 01:12 (six years ago) link

lol i see we're getting a lot done here

call all destroyer, Thursday, 2 November 2017 01:15 (six years ago) link

It was. Just throwing in a little compound neologism of my own. An onimologism.

Chunky Backgammon (onimo), Thursday, 2 November 2017 01:16 (six years ago) link

I would categorize yours as more of a portmanteau neologism, but let's not permit a little disagreement like that to come between us, ok?

A is for (Aimless), Thursday, 2 November 2017 01:19 (six years ago) link

entitled? everyone shit(post)s

the people have already spoken on the issue of banning vs laissez fair/anarchic hands off modding

smh mods the people have spoken

People forget about this moment of executive overreach.

I haven’t forgotten.

Treeship, Thursday, 2 November 2017 03:43 (six years ago) link

I read a couple of other sites where people have weighed in revealing some of our ‘funny’ ex-members as real-life abusers, and conversely some ppl who left really are pretty chill and I wish them well, so the system works well enough

mh, Thursday, 2 November 2017 03:47 (six years ago) link

I’ll tell lagoon

Treeship, Thursday, 2 November 2017 03:56 (six years ago) link

he knows and is ok

mh, Thursday, 2 November 2017 03:58 (six years ago) link

and if not I think I know where he’s at and I have vacay days to go hang and tell him irl

mh, Thursday, 2 November 2017 03:59 (six years ago) link

keep everyone banned it maintains the fiction that they still want to post here, if they could

although i really like this take from lamp, this does make us look pretty cool

eek I am sorry about my diction I just wanted to turrican bash. ilx is mostly good these days but the exceptions glare

droit au butt (Euler), Thursday, 2 November 2017 04:55 (six years ago) link

honestly I have little sympathy for people complaining about awful posters on threads about The Beatles or U.S. Politics. It goes with the territory.

it's like complaining about displays of autism on a year-end poll thread

sarahell, Thursday, 2 November 2017 07:29 (six years ago) link

If both jclc and estela refuse to endorse shitpost as a term then it is hereby rescinded

wow this is, like, a bullshit way to put that

"shitpost" IS shorter than "post where someone claims the last 4 Tarantino movies were good"

ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 2 November 2017 11:49 (six years ago) link

turrican should be forced to change his display name because "turrican 2" is such an awesome game i can't bring myself to hate him no matter how much stupid shit he posts

Yes. Kind of a shithttp://www.interactivetraining.co.uk/images/symbols/space_margin.gifpost.

Chunky Backgammon (onimo), Thursday, 2 November 2017 12:55 (six years ago) link

some posters have a terminal case of uncorrectable edginess, they are just so out there and not easily constrained within the narrow confines of this pc nonsense etc....

calzino, Thursday, 2 November 2017 13:13 (six years ago) link

there are many legitimate complaints to make against sarahell but i don't think that's among them.
