Who is the sockpuppetmaster of ilx

He Do the Posters in Different Voices

President Keyes, Monday, 26 February 2018 18:41 (six years ago) link

the seemingly decline in big cultural tentpole moments is a factor for me. a lot of what made ilx fun for me was participating in those threads. although i guess a new star wars can be relied upon to come out every year. i think this is especially apparent on the music side. i mean just look at what was #1 for the tracks poll! a song nobody loved.

maybe that's another way of saying lots of good discussion can be found somewhere else, and also maybe that i'm less interested in engaging with the 'culture' nowadays. i will say ilx is nice though in that it's often a refuge from the hysteria present on other social media like twitter, the politics thread is often a good splash of cold water from trump fear.

also unfortunate is the number of shitty posts blanketing the board from posters like infinity symbol which makes finding the good stuff that much harder.

anyway! ilx is dead, long live ilx.

yea I admit I spent a lot of time trying to rile people up in the old days and a lot of my opinions were flat out dumb. one big moment for me was when I used the word "uppity" in the "is this racist" thread and a lot of people gave me shit for using such a "racially charged word". but I *honest to God* never remembering hearing the word in that context (or just didn't realize it at the time) so I thought all you guys were trolling me so I kept trolling back even harder, and then I looked it up and it turns out it IS a racially charged word, and I wanted to go and say "my bad" but wound up with 68,000 SBs and couldn't post for a while

frogbs, Monday, 26 February 2018 18:59 (six years ago) link

lol I tried to get into the discord chat the other day and I guess it's gone or something. I don't understand the new ways of using the internet.

I think this is the funniest shit, how many 'secret' chat rooms do we have now that are mostly ilx people? lagoon and I tried making a slack but no one joined but there are at least two active ones I know of, but am not part of (probably for the best)

bald butte (∞), Monday, 26 February 2018 19:02 (six years ago) link

Have to say 77 and [secret board name redacted] are where it is pretty much these days.

Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 26 February 2018 19:02 (six years ago) link

Oh wow auto corrected secret borad! :D

Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 26 February 2018 19:03 (six years ago) link

those chats are where they breed trolls w/regulars and come up with nefarious armies, i think that's what TWU is maybe on about.

omar little, Monday, 26 February 2018 19:03 (six years ago) link

I have heard of the double-secret board and have it on authority that it sucks

Oh man I remember this because, full disclosure, I didn't realize before then that it was racially charged and just thought it mean stuck up.

Hold on, there's more than one secret/invitation only board?

Video reach stereo bog (Tom D.), Monday, 26 February 2018 19:05 (six years ago) link

isn't TWU just rolling with the ongoing delusion that everyone who disagrees with him is a bot army, and not a bunch of people just reacting to bad posts

mh, Monday, 26 February 2018 19:05 (six years ago) link

TWU's conspiracy theory is legitimately one of my favorite ongoing traditions.

omar little, Monday, 26 February 2018 19:05 (six years ago) link

oh and a couple of weeks ago, another great poster was driven off the board by a shitty poster. so there's that!

i love the idea of ILX crisis actors responding to bad opinions about Prefab Sprout or something.

AFAIK no there isn't. There are, however, other boards that ILX posters have started and brought posters with them but they're not hosted by ILX or hidden here.
