I think upper east side is where "Friends" and "Seinfeld" was shot, at least Seinfeld

All I know is that Elaines apartment costs about 8k a month to rent.
Maybe more like 10 now.

Jerrys apt must cost more probably around 15? And the Friends apartment must be like 20k per month...


these are all crazy high numbers, why is it so insanely high?
Tokyio is about half and you live in a shoebox basically, Berlin is way less.

If I was renting in that price range, I would look at some neighborhood in Queens with good food, Harlem, or an up and coming neighborhood in Brooklyn like Bed-Stuy. But it really depends on where you are travelling for work.
Back in the late 2000’s we rented a one bedroom in a very nice building with a 24 hr doorman, dry cleaning, valet, and rooftop deck in the heart of the upper east side for $3200. No balcony though. That would have been an extra 500.

Things have def changed…

So we don't really need a mod but if someone with mod powers wanted to randomly temp ban 1/3rd of the people posting in the Israel thread it might be helpful.

I probably agree with you but it is what it is. No one has the combination of time and willingness to actively moderate the forum. That includes me.

You should step down so, along with anyone else without the time or willingness and just have the forum mod free.

Lucy Letby might be and probably is innocent.
The brits are totally insane. Lucy Letby and Harry and the Prince are just another example of british insanity.

Tell that to your irish mates, corpus.
They didnt have a single piece of direct evidence.
She is a scape goat for the NHS failed system.





here NHS the butchers of england:


IT failures causing patient deaths, says NHS safety body

Yeah okay washoe, I'm sure the cops said "Lucy Letby, you're under arrest even though we've not a single piece of direct evidence to arrest you on".

Hey maybe she can be Daniel Holtzclaw's pen pal

Washoe always doing his best to prove that this forum does need mods after all.

He seems to have a thing for defending serial rapists and serial baby killers, basing youtube and a Lucy Letby subreddit as his sources.

its estimated that about 5% of all imprisoned people are actually innocent, wrongfully convicted.

I don't care what color my name is. I told KS that if he wanted to leave me green, I of course would ban obvious spammers and the like if I saw them. But he understands that I am no longer actively moderating the forum.

The reality is that no one has ever been able to moderate this forum to everyone's satisfaction.

My honest expectation is that this forum will limp along for a while with little or no moderation, and things will seem tolerable. But as the U.S. election approaches, posting quality will deteriorate and the need for moderation will increase. If no one is willing to moderate in October-November, the forum will go off the rails, probably enough off the rails that some people will freak out and complain to the owners. The owners then will decide that the forum is more trouble than it is worth and shut it down.

That's a bit of a doomsday scenario, and I hope it doesn't happen, but I think that outcome is definitely in play.

...And? Ergo your favourite serial killer and rapist are innocent? Cuz there's been innocents convicted before? Again you claimed court transcripts could actually be faked. There is no structure or apparent rules to your logic, you just say whatever comes into your head, it seems.

Eh? This is nothing to do with the Brits, if Letby was Irish or Romanian or from Timbuktu I'd consider her guilty based on the evidence presented in court, ditto for Holtzclaw. Both are gonna die in prison and society is that little bit safer due to them being off the streets.

And why do you think Irish people automatically hate English people, do you honestly realise how inherently illogical and stupid that would be, not to mention bigoted?

I don't even bother with that thread because of how impossible it would be. But if there's support, I'd be happy to "randomly" ban 1/3 of the posters for random amounts of time.

If I was running for Mod, this would be my campaign slogan. Other than that, anything goes.

I remember the old Israel palestine thread from the gamblor era, and ya it was also completely unmoderatorable. The topic is just incredibly polarizing even when there isn't a big conflict ongoing.

"moderating the forum to everyone's satisfaction" is obviously an incredibly silly goal and not the way any other 2p2 forum is moderated.

This place is clearly just going to continue its long backslide into reactionary right-wing dogshit. I doubt the election will change much and I don't see any of tptb developing a sense of shame any time soon.
