I'm tired of hearing "77 is an elitist board where it's an exclusive club and blah blah blah..." talk. It is not.

Anyone with an ilx account that hasn't come from out of the fuckin blue is welcome to post on 77. The only catch to 77 is that it is de-indexed.

Not so people can fuckin gossip about shit. I'm going to break a rule and post some current threads running over there:

• Depression and anxiety and how we try to deal
• moments when you seriously believe all of popular culture has been reduced to fan service
• commiserate about your ptsd symptoms
• graphic design, 1986-94
• Tracksuit-clad-Mila-Kunis-grabs-solitary-caffeine-hit-way-pilates-class.html
• 77 thread for teachers who don't want to lose their jobs

Any of you old regulars who boo-hoo about the existence of 77, tell me where else sensitive topics like depression or ptsd should be discussed? Out in the open with the rest of our Googleable zany threads? Do you not see why that would be an issue?

Swear to God if you say "in a pub," I'm gonna FP you so fast.

huh weird i could swear i've seen the first and fourth of those threads, but i am not on 77. or am i?

|Restore| |Restart| |Quit| (Doctor Casino), Thursday, 14 March 2019 13:53 (five years ago) link

I don't discuss my personal life or problems online so that side of 77 is of no use to me, I can see how that is of some value to people though.

doc casino - there's a non-77 version of the first of those threads. most of the recent posts consist of regulars encouraging people to come on over to 77 - what with the stigma still attached to mental illness people don't necessarily feel comfortable going into detail about it on the public internet

the scientology of mountains (rushomancy), Thursday, 14 March 2019 14:21 (five years ago) link

if i go to Boards i can see 77 and view all the threads. does that mean i'm on 77?

|Restore| |Restart| |Quit| (Doctor Casino), Thursday, 14 March 2019 14:26 (five years ago) link

I believe that's what that means, yes.

Unless it's a trap.

Tell me, do u see a tantalizing hunk of cheese which seems weirdly out of place

Goody Rickels on the Dime (Old Lunch), Thursday, 14 March 2019 14:29 (five years ago) link

lol yes

Emperor Tonetta Ketchup (sleeve), Thursday, 14 March 2019 14:29 (five years ago) link

moments when you seriously believe all of popular culture has been reduced to fan service

what's the logic for a thread like this to be on 77 rather than ILE?

Many many non sequitur ILXor nudes iirc

Goody Rickels on the Dime (Old Lunch), Thursday, 14 March 2019 14:43 (five years ago) link

so did i get added to 77 at some point? or did i ask for it and completely erase this memory?

|Restore| |Restart| |Quit| (Doctor Casino), Thursday, 14 March 2019 14:48 (five years ago) link

Maybe you were always there, Doctor. Maybe 77 is you.

I don't discuss my personal life or problems online

tbf half of ilm is people doing exactly this, they're just couching it in language that makes it look like they're commenting on popular music

Did anyone mention M1ke Stuchb3ry/Mikey Bidness as a semi-notable former ILXor?

jaymc, Friday, 15 March 2019 23:32 (five years ago) link

i didn't know he was an ilxor but he's getting RT'd to my timeline a LOT after getting doxxed and confronted by a famous white ethnonationalist cunt a week or so ago

PPL+AI=NS (imago), Friday, 15 March 2019 23:34 (five years ago) link

Someone I follow just retweeted him, which is what reminded me.

jaymc, Friday, 15 March 2019 23:35 (five years ago) link

i didn't know mikeybidness was famous.

jaymc have you always kept the same xls file updated or has it gone through several iterations

⅋ (crüt), Friday, 15 March 2019 23:51 (five years ago) link

I like the idea of a secret cabal that I'm not permitted access to. Otherwise, this would just be a webforum stuck with 1990s design, packed with music journos, and born of usenet's rec.music.alternative.

i'd like that graphic design thread to be on ile, or to just remember to request 77 access

people who mistakenly think 77 is a cliquey thing should direct their ire to actual snobby borads like 1p3 and Ask a Drunk!

calumy (rip van wanko), Sunday, 17 March 2019 16:05 (five years ago) link

Would you say that 77 covers the ground that the old "This is the thread where I say" threads used to?

lol at one point it did and someone started a thread complaining about it

sarahell, Sunday, 17 March 2019 16:46 (five years ago) link

BTW, it fills me with great ire to see people disparaging the "This is the thread where I say" series of threads when the only despicable aspect of the threads was that it had as one of its regulars a grifter. None of you motherfuckers seem to want to acknowledge that at the time those threads were ongoing, ILX was EXTREMELY cliqueish and if you didn't happen to live in one of the geographical areas whose own chatty threads overran ILE, you were fucked. Nowadays ILX doesn't need a TITTWIS thread because I see that the lines of discussion are far more catholic (e.g. the "Irrationally Angry" thread series), but back when they existed they were very much in fucking need. Y'all complain about 77 but it seems infinitely more open than ILX was back in those bad old days. Hell, even the Noize Boarders were more open and welcoming than the NYC/L.A./Australian/New Zealander/Glasgow/Londoner cliques, and they were practically KIDS at the time.

Anyway, as far as Chaki is concerned, the only person he owed an apology to in the era of "unveiling Luna" is Sam and if he's already done that he's fully in the clear and need not apologize to anyone else, least of all Luna. I will never forgive her for taking advantage of that particular unnamed person. He was a very kind man and didn't deserve a single bit of that.

you lived in the continental United States

You would have to be on 77 to compare how open it is to earlier incarnations of ILX. Ironically.

Bielsa, Bub (Tom D.), Sunday, 17 March 2019 17:38 (five years ago) link

you lived in the continental United States

Yes, but thousands of miles away from NYC and L.A., smack dab in the middle of Texas. Oh, and I don't mention the Chicago crew (even though they had their own geographical thread series) because the vast majority of them also participated in the TITTWIS thread series so it's as if that clique never even existed in the first place.

It seems as though the only thing you'd need to do to join 77 is ask the person in charge? Which, BTW, I'll do right now just to see how easy it is. Will report back.

The Colour of Spring (deethelurker), Sunday, 17 March 2019 17:54 (five years ago) link

Yes, but thousands of miles away from NYC and L.A.

The middle of Texas is about one thousand miles from L.A. How many miles do you think gem lived from kate?
