[serious] Off Topic Moderation Input - Part 2

How are HC and Reg going to help the situation?

Not those twins...them other ones.

The sad truth is that all these rules are just to deal with Kid and Ben. Just ban them and get it over with.

Or you could go work on your issues with a mental health professional.

It's a good suggestion to have a public "case law". It's a lot of grey area right now ...

Though I worry about treating unmarked threads the same as [civil]. The idea is to try to have our cake and eat it too, with threads for those who want civil discussion, and threads for those who just want to let loose (within reason). If we do want to go that far, then there's no need for [civil] and instead we have the same rules for all threads.

If it ends up that most thread starters want [civil] then we could switch to using [flame] and have civil as the norm. At this point I would say we're at flame being the norm. Though I'm hopeful that will change.

No matter what you do, there will be people complaining.

This is the Poly OT.

May as well do nothing. Chill out and relax.

I hope that doesn't sound "defeatist".

May as well give up now rather than give up later. Saves time.

I implemented a no posting while wearing pants rule about 7 hours ago. It promptly started raining here and got a bit chilly, so that was the end of that social experiment.

Cry Havoc and release the twins!

Miss a little, miss a lot.

[giblets]

It was a rule for maybe 12 hours.

[regexcellent]

if I understand right there was a rule for like, two days? that said you couldn't post in a thread if you were in the OP's ignore list. If it's still there let it be known I oppose it, only because I long ago shoved some perfectly good posters in mine for no reason and haven't gotten around to curating it.

Aeson, Trying to be politically correct and all inclusive leads to anarchy.

You know what to do. You must just have the will to do it.
