Also we should be able to talk about any posts or posters we want to in this sub-forum. Other sub-forums do not have this restriction, but we're supposed to have it in unchained?

I know Chezliar will never get over BruceZ being "attacked," but too bad.

Mat -- I also think that it is important that a moderator of a forum can communicate at least moderately effectively using standard written English.

Smokey J and kneeed are out as mods. Neither of them know boundaries or moderation of extreme and abusive humor. Rape jokes and rape joking, harassment which leads to plausible doxxing is not unchained- it is stupid. That was a big problem for a few people recently. My opinion as a poster.

Could you clarify or elaborate for both of our better understanding?

No chez. Here in PU we are still going to call Bruce a racist piece of **** when you bring him up. Sorry.

He's saying what you posted made no sense. Should be pretty obvious.

Did I like incept DIB to hallucinate that the DOXX actually happened or something? And that he has a human female wife?

Re: personal attacks, seems most people want this to be just a forum specifically for personal attacks which is fine too. In that case, Mat, just choose a mod that is about as hands off as possible and will simply delete spam, porn, doxxing material and hate speech. There are a whole crew up for this: trolly and keeed seem to be fine, and as I said Elliot seems to be good too and afaik nobody except ikes objects to him.

... I'd suggest:

Anyone who posts in PU is fair game
Everyone who doesn't post in P/PU can be hands off if they object.
If someone decides to leave PU because they object then they will become hands off after a reasonable period
No one should be subject to attacks in a thread they are barred from except for a short period...

Yep this. I'd add:

Whatever's good for a post is good for the title.
SPECIAL RULE #1: No calling other posters racists or ******s.
SPECIAL RULE #2: No whining about "that's racist", etc.

That should be it. Regarding name-calling, we don't need any more stinkin' chains.

It will take a while to gather up the posts if need be. I'm out after this except for spam duty for time.

The posters involved have mocked being called out for it ever since. The butt hurt of being openly disagreed with for making rape jokes and cross-posting OOT posts to harass a poster has been tremendous. It still lasts to this day. imo.

The forum doesn't need codified rules, it needs the very small number of intentionally disruptive asshats banned. Everybody else seems to understand how to behave.

Everything that's been going on for the past week is the direct fault of ONE person. Ban spanky and all this crap goes away instantly. Ban DudeImBetter while you're at it and the entire forum will be markedly improved.

There are no moderation mechanics that will ever make people like them not be disruptive asshats. They have nothing of value to add, and they need to go.

Just using it as I've seen it used here. And it seems to be in common usage.

Sorry, thought you were grammar nitting, and as I wasn't familiar with the term until the recent "situation" I had to look it up.

You made a thinly veiled threat. No biggie though, Elliot has done that twice to me! And I responded!

Serious question How do you explain my relentless effort to get this topic to fade away? Especially in light of my alleged attention whoring; seems like something I should love, no?

I assume if SM2 were still here, you'd want him gone too. Ditto a few others we're both probably forgetting.

So what do you want this place to be? I mean, other than extremely quiet and dedicated almost exclusively to ripping on Ikes.
