posts very much in character

just like, not sure there is a need for it

wtf of course there is, I just used it the other day with f. hazel

harsh trís

i think everyone agrees we want this to be a place that feels safer and less toxic than twitter/instagram/facebook/reddit/etc

maybe this is a way to do that

i'm no longer chariman of the board of ilx so i'll leave this decision to more qualified people

delighted to note that jaymc has still got it

albeit surely playing to the gallery

I have no problem w the dm feature.

i have sometimes found it kind of hostile, to be honest

in the rare occasion that anyone has used it to contact me, the messages have either been genuine and friendly or intended to reduce acrimony (not to sow it)
(so far)

barely anyone has used it for me, not for a long time. the people i know on ilx i am connected to other ways.

but in years past i'd get some messages there that i could have done without. nothing egregious, but i don't give out my email address to everyone you know. just every store i shop in.

i was just kind of throwing out ways to improve the site and retain more posters. i feel like this site is getting smaller and smaller

any ilx mail I've ever sent or received to/from someone I didn't know offboard was usually me or them apologizing for getting too heated or a misunderstanding

Yeah the only time I used it was to apologize to someone :-/

so all evidence, mine included, indicates that the dm feature is not actually a tool of hostility

here

it's also very useful for under-the-radar "YSI" links :)

i wonder if the dm feature should be removed from ilx

darraghmac's posts can be difficult to parse sometimes but this is going too far.

lol

people forget that it was frederik b who originally programmed the dm feature. more people need to read the faq

what an ear he has for dialect

Denmark isn't mitteleuropa/Central Europe, and could you please turn down the celtsplaining, deems?

Neider is Nederland.

slow news day i see

adding to the chorus here that LBI is real, named G3rard, and iirc I'm friends with him on facebook and all his details line up with the bio he's presented here! and I don't think anyone's ever implied he is or has created any sockpuppet accounts outside of the "european ilxors are all the same guy" conspiracy

my more humorous take on the location conspiracy is that any poster that has a city/state/country in their name absolutely does not live in that location

although I did once see 'alex in montreal' in said city but that may be the exception that proves the rule

Treesh, I am sorry I used all those sock accounts to send you dick pics.

I’m not!

Wait, have we all been sending him dick pics this whole time?

Yes but we've only sent him mittel-Europäische schwanz pix iirc
