You know, I have to say ..KFH should be unbanned. He was inflammatory in inflammatory threads. Was he over the top? Sure. But, cmon what do you expect from such threads as "Porn is ruining relationships" and "126 pound 3 yr old" and So on~ You remove the troll threads, you are left with a person who gave some legit input on our site and was loyal to the website. Isn't that what the website needs more of? Loyalty? Sure you need sponsors, but without all of us posting, its a very empty website to be sure. I agree there is a fine line, but implement new rules, give those a chance to either conform, leave, or get banned..
But I look in the LOLpics thread and see offensive words already, racist pictures (native american picture heres looking at you), and that will get nuked. I see a post where someone is blatantly saying F*** you mods, idc what you say. And no ban hammer? /blah. To quote a good friend, "The internet is our last frontier for freedom of speech, and without it, we will be nothing more than obedient dogs who get lashed at the slightest form of civil unrest." I for one, miss you cookie monster </3 This site really feels like a shell, and LOLPics being gone only empthasizes that =/. I just decided, I hate university, and it's assignments!
KFH was a freaking legend i loved his random posts
he'll the 126 pound 3 yr old probably had more racist remarks than the usual BNP march in bradford (search bradford riots on google and that'll make sense) if you're offended by a person you ignore them (or b'list them), fact is mods felt the need to act.. and strangely enough.. its the newer mod(s) that seem to have to do it.. especially considering they were also part of the banter at one point Like ive said i understand the changes i just dont agree with them, to be honest .. ive lost caring Leviathan.Angelskiss

That being said he wasn't even given the option to conform or say FU in his own unique personal charming way and leave..
He was himself and got banned for it after almost 25000 posts. IDK many who are that loyal to this site.. Now all I see is people saying thats it, im gone.. deleting a thread that gets million views... What? Let's all sit and be cookie cutter Brady bunch folks around the picnic table sipping lemonade and discussing the weather, that is still appropriate right? At least he was honest and colorful. Angel!
Rage sleeping? wat I'm sure the mods/admins would love to have free speech on their forums, but with how much it costs to keep this website going (plus fix the bugs) they're doing all that without charging us anything and relying on donations and clicks from Ads.
Would you rather they charge something like $5 / month and have a lower userbase, or would you rather it be as is? Right now, all they're trying to do is get rid of the nasty stuff. Lol pics was filled with many pictures that got by the censor. And this new Lol pics thread isn't really changing it until Krizz starts deleting some of those posts (seriously). They're working for free, basically. Don't expect them to do things right away. I'm sure people will get banned soon, if not temp'd. (and KFH only got temp'd btw) Also, stop blaming the mods. The mods are trying their best to keep this site open, while the users sit there in anger. BE GLAD. Stop being negative. Look at the bright side of things. Ramuh.Rowland said: Row, Standing by.

one is sorry if one portayed one's comments incorrectly. to be honest you have to blame the mods to an extent.. i understand the role BUT look.. one mod says these are the rules.. GO! mods adhere to them 2 or 3 go wayyy over the top (lets delete this, lets ban this, lets do this) Why dont they just wipe everything and start again.. that way they can police it. im just ranting because its shitty situation for a few people.

I am sure people would rather pay 5$ a mth and have lolpics stay as is and feel free to speak. Am I saying some of the stuff he said was appropriate..hell no, the dude reminds of a black howard stern. But you know what? Howard stern is fabulous and millions tune in for his outrageousness, just like the lOLpics thread. How many people came to this site FOR that thread?
I see Machavillin (sp), Washburn, Nindo - many many people =/ I would gladly pay 5$. I am not blaming anyone, but I do have the right to express my opinion, whether you like it or not.. I didn't swear, wasn't racist, and completely stayed within the new rules and regulations of the forum site. With the way people act on these forums, we do need some sort of policing (seriously, people think this is 4chan and it's been really annoying).
Also, you guys and girls act as if deleting a whole thread and starting for scratch is a bad thing. Krizz is giving people til at most tomorrow to grab all the good pictures and put it in the new thread. But this time, it's gonna be moderated and all the bad pictures will be sent to the grave. This is what happens when people cross the line. Even if FFXIAH LS Ni gets locked and sent to the disposal and allowed a new thread, just pretend nothing happened. It's not like you'll read the last 5 pages just to watch all the jibberish that goes on. Aka nothing will change anyways in these threads, just a bit more moderation in order to please everybody. so why not just nuke everything?
surely theres 1 bit of flaming on every thread on here? it doesnt please me that i cant randomly "abuse" someone for the fun. They themselves arent offended but someone else might be.. so now we cant use innuendo's.. Im suprised i didnt get smashed for saying "damn scots" to sagi earlier cos technically its racist Need to be careful .. meh i dunno.. i think it just be easier to watch what gets posted with the new rules rather than making things start afresh.. tbh i do often random pick a page on here and read through (when im bored) Bismarck.Rinkydink said: KFH was a freaking legend i loved his random posts he'll the 126 pound 3 yr old probably had more racist remarks than the usual BNP march in bradford (search bradford riots on google and that'll make sense) if you're offended by a person you ignore them (or b'list them), fact is mods felt the need to act.. and strangely enough.. its the newer mod(s) that seem to have to do it.. especially considering they were also part of the banter at one point Like ive said i understand the changes i just dont agree with them, to be honest .. ive lost caring you're making KFH all mushy inside right now Ramuh.Rowland said: I backread Ni.

Also not everyone acts like 4chan here - and the new rules are effectively putting a stop to that, the BLOCK button was implemented FOR a reason as is the under age filters. Cerberus.Kalyna said: Even if FFXIAH LS Ni gets locked and sent to the disposal and allowed a new thread, just pretend nothing happened. Following this logic, we should just pretend the holocaust didn't happen? because we wouldn't want to upset the balance of the authority figures? Cerberus.Kalyna said: Aka nothing will change anyways in these threads, just a bit more moderation in order to please everybody. Things DID change and not EVERYBODY is happy. Note the loyal members LEAVING. With much love and respect I am not trying to start some kind of war in this thread, I am merely trying to vent my anger and frustration. I feel poor Krizz is a scapegoat for a lot of very unhapppy LOYAL posters, and fear that the number of active chatters will decline sharply, and the number of NEW members will not equal that number. Hate to be in his green bar'ish shoes right now.

Krizz has a daughter to take care of and has a life outside of FFXI and the forums. So does Aly, Anye, Scragg and Jaerik. They're not gonna make their lives harder by doing that. It's not denying that the threads were never there, it's more of "let's just get on with our lives and keep talking and not worry about it."

Not really because as someone pointed out 900 pages with at least 1 bad post a page makes 900 posts to moderate, an awful lot of work. The block function was put in at user request. The language filter and nuking is to appease google. PS: not to anyone in particular, and not a criticism of the policies, just an observation but: |
