[serious] Off Topic Moderation Input - Part 2

[Asher]

Mission accomplished.

[MikeH]

It's a feature we put in to annoy Asher.

[SlowwHand]

That's a pretty dumb question.

[self biased]

ask NYE.

[Thoth]

As an aside, why can't we put moderators on ignore?

[Asher]

I've actually put myself on my own ignore list before.

Fire and forget

[KrazyHorse]

I've actually put myself on my own ignore list before. Unfortunately some killjoy disabled that functionality.

[MikeH]

ITYM

"****."
"haha, I bet that '**** said something really dumb right? He's on my ignore list."

[self biased]

but then all the threads would consist of:

"****."
"no, YOU'RE a ****."

[MOBIUS]

That's a funny thought.

At the end there would be KH posting away in an empty forum having vanquished all of us.

And insulting himself all the while, to boot.

[MikeH]

Can he literally not link the poster with the post?

[DaShi]

:groan:

[Ben Kenobi]

That's a funny thought.

At the end there would be KH posting away in an empty forum having vanquished all of us.

And rah vanquishes his enemies? Who knew? Aren't you supposed to be the 'reasonable' one?

[KrazyHorse]

Poly OT has always been feisty. It strikes me that the people most troubled like this have been most likely to stop posting.

Those left are most likely to fall into the following categories-

1- Thick-skinned old tough-nuts who couldn't care less.
2- Those with a long history of slugging it out and are grimly determined to see things through to the bitter end with their enemies vanquished.
3- People who find the whole thing rather funny .

So as the less determined drop out, it all gets more concentrated. It's not the moderation.

So there it is. And it's been like this for years. We're all getting more set in our ways, and we probably won't change. There wasn't a golden huggy-wuggy past, and there won't be a golden huggy-wuggy future. It's Poly OT- deal with it.

THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE!

[rah]

please, sir, can i has some huggy-wuggies too?

Get a few tumors in your brain, and I'm sure that even with your reputation as an ass, that you'd get a few huggy-wuggies.

And Asher, no.
