what is our consensus on the worst nationality?

Yeah, sorry but it's definitely American. And we could make a poll about it, but it would be ruined by the Americans.
Because they ruin everything.

I suppose it's called Jutland because it juts out. Has to be. Frætheræk?

That's what they used to say about Germany.

Frætheræk - I think that's how they pronounce it in most of Scotland tbh.

It's because it's the land of the 'judes' or 'juthes' or 'iuthær' as it was spelled in the middle ages.

I was born in Jutland as well, and, true story, I used to think 'Hey Jude' was about people like me.

i really liked jutland when i visited fwiw. aarhus was a fun city and the countryside was pretty surreal in terms of just how many acres of snow there was in all directions

i can think of at least one personal interaction i've had on ILX during the past week that would have played out very differently - for better or worse - if we had a cooling-off mechanism like this

That or fitting all users with some sort of genital-shocking contraption would really do wonders for this place, I feel.

this thread is interesting because when I flag posts it is because I think the post itself is objectionable, contains objectionable language, etc., and then the expectation is that the individual post is deleted but the poster is not advanced up some kind of fifty-strikes-you're-out-no-questions-asked scale.
this seems very...unintuitive. especially since the flag post screen tells you are flagging the *post* for attention of the moderators
― aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Friday, 17 August 2018 20:11 (five years ago) link
Yeah it’s a fiction unfortunately.

Used to be called suggest ban before my day. That seemed a clearer term.
― Trϵϵship, Friday, 17 August 2018 20:15 (five years ago) link
I’m not sure we need that much more moderation though idk. My friend moderates a massive subreddit and she is constantly rooting out hateful, hateful stuff that ilx luckily doesn’t seem to have much of.
― Trϵϵship, Friday, 17 August 2018 20:17 (five years ago) link
well a) we're an increasingly shrinking and insular circle, and b) really hateful stuff will almost always get modded and banned without FP coming into play
― Noodle Vague, Friday, 17 August 2018 20:25 (five years ago) link
it's true
― Trϵϵship, Friday, 17 August 2018 20:26 (five years ago) link
has someone checked on fred? that "check your email" message was p ominous
was that happening a lot when i was gone? ppl get that message from a mod and then vanish without a trace from ilx/irl?
― Trϵϵship, Friday, 17 August 2018 20:27 (five years ago) link
yes

Usually, could be a warning that he's getting close to the limit.

darragh got emailed by the modsock and next thing we knew he’d been replaced with an exact replica

the mod aint been anointed yet that can @ this

flag posts can't stick to the wind
― Trϵϵship, Friday, 17 August 2018 20:42 (five years ago) link
in all seriousness "let someone's posts stand unhindered without warning or action until 51 people dislike them" seems like an extremely dysfunctional way to moderate... anything
― aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Friday, 17 August 2018 20:43 (five years ago) link
how long have you been posting to ilx?!
this is not how it works
if a post is actionable you get a mod to action it
if you want the poster banned for an accumulation of offences flag the post
this has been done in about forty threads
― flaneur brayin (darraghmac), Friday, 17 August 2018 20:46 (five years ago) link
like
deej hasnt done anything bannable
but very soon hes likely going to be 51'd for i dunno the fourth time
its a good system
― flaneur brayin (darraghmac), Friday, 17 August 2018 20:47 (five years ago) link
again, though, this seems very counterintuitive, because the link says Flag Post and the text says "Confirming this will flag the post for the attention of the moderators," so I guess I've been using this wrong for years
― aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Friday, 17 August 2018 20:49 (five years ago) link
if you want a Referendum on Person button then the text should probably be changed to reflect that
― aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Friday, 17 August 2018 20:50 (five years ago) link
yeah they fucked it up when they changed the wording without changing anything else
hilariously, ppl were delighted with the wallpaper change
im as confused as you about it
