General Chat Thread

[Typhoid Libby 1,265]

That's cause they were both replying to you. No point making a new post or quote when I can do without.

 

Be clearer then, or I'm going to repeatedly ask you to make yourself clear.

[Haven Celestii 9,385]

on a completely unrelated note, maybe moved to General Discussion won't be as bad

 

[Key Gear 6,664]

In all honesty, I think that it's possible to go too far in the nonrandom direction as well. Perhaps, rather than locking down this thread with Gestapo tactics, a new thread could be created where a slightly more serious level of discussion could occur?

Edit: fekking 404 numberbug

I never see this thing, how did you get that? o_o

 

 

Filly please, you have no idea how fucking happy I am when this place got the char minimum

 

I would (figuratively) pay a leg to see that here. Maybe 50 or 75 characters

Zoop tried that with separating the random from here. Didn't last the night.

Well, Zoop agreed and Crona made the thread.

How can you go too far in order?

Heheh. Not gonna happen in this subforum

 

Honestly we are stuck here. We can't really go to orderly thread in FL, while we can't do funny things on any other subforum.

I'm not proposing to separate the randomness. I'm proposing to separate the seriousness. :3

No.

This was perfect as it was and it worked.

Don't fix what is not broken.

 

Your users are, thread is not.

Spammers can GG out, whether voluntarily or with assistance.

History is here, history stays here.

It stays.

Also this, tried and failed.

I would be sad.

So very sad.

But wouldn't it get the same exact response since it is technically the same thing?

 

Make a new thread for seriousness.

Mod comes along and locks it due to this thread being here and maybe being misinformed.

Back at square 1.

[Starshine 16,335]

Unless you can propose a free discussion thread on General Discussion without the risk of being locked by other mods, we can't talk any further :c

 

And as Libby said, this thread was good about... twenty five thousand replies ago? Holy that's a long way back

[Key Gear 6,664]

You know, I do have the ability to make general announcements for moderators.

So the lowest common denominator would win.

Are you daft?

 

Oh, right, Bronies, this is like special needs of the special needs forums.

Admins always tap out to the idiots.

[Haven Celestii 9,385]

Hmm, should work since you are an admin

I guess you could try that.

I don't know if Zoop did that or not so I was just saying that in case he didn't and no one knew of the decision.

What?

You get full on srs business discussion

and others get laid back discussion

Its a win win.

[Key Gear 6,664]

Well, first… Let me try something…

[Starshine 16,335]

@,

 

And another thing, the main reason why this thread used to be so goddamn fun is the controlled randomness.

 

We talk about, say, bread. People will try to post funny things about bread while replying to others' posts about bread. We are random, but we stay on one topic for a while, which is bread

 

What happened recently is that there is so many new people here that simply see this thread as a fucking spam ground. We are talking about bread, they posts things about ice cream and spaghetti all the while. All we want is to flush this anti-bread people, which is should be easy if everyone pro-bread can work together :c

[Typhoid Libby 1,265]

Yeah, sure, let's make an example that spamming is okay and that if you do it long enough you win and Admins bow to your will and give you the thread to be spammed.

This I can work with.

Not the Hitler-ing currently going on.

Oh, so its more about this actual thread and not just a place to talk srs bsns.

 

Well, then just make the other thread get unlocked. A thread is a thread, I doubt most would care where they can go to do whatever as long as they can do it somewhere.

So if that thread gets unlocked you can keep this one. Still a win win.

Comparing the Holocaust with the anti-spam movement?

 

Using this thread just to share your images/youtubes/links repeatedly then goes away is a no

Attention whoring can go somewhere else where people actually can give a sincere shit

Posting fanarts is allowed, but do so with without ruining everyone else' bandwith

Actively trying to get the conversations to centers around you is also a dick move

Roleplaying is the biggest no

 

Is it really that hard?

[Typhoid Libby 1,265]

 

It's a principle of the matter.

Small things can move mountains.

Admins should have the backbone to enforce their decisions which already made.

Zoop promised something, now I'm backing them up to see if they do it.

There's values in this world that matter in the fucking internet. That's what the site also states in it's ultimatum.

 

Plus, I'm gone if this thread is.

I like Weyland and this thread, only reasons I am here. Fuck that up and there's nothing left.

 

Thread was fine as I left, it's gone to shit now.

It needs fixing, so here we are.

I'll see this one through to the end and everyone else can shove it if you don't like it.

"Even though it is Cloudsdale, there are still standards."

That was taken from the closing statement of the Random Chat.

Somehow that does not apply here?

[Starshine 16,335]

It was good for about a few months after you leave. But then somehow things go hell. Can't really discern where things go wrong

 

And the bloody fuck about the title

[Haven Celestii 9,385]

Nightfall - Using this thread just to share your images/youtubes/links repeatedly then goes away is a no

Not sure.. - Attention whoring can go somewhere else where people actually can give a sincere shit

Akimbrony - Posting fanarts is allowed, but do so with without ruining everyone else' bandwith

Airi - Actively trying to get the conversations to centers around you is also a dick move

Statistic - Roleplaying is the biggest no

Eh, more or less.

 

Also, I'm not supposed to read all that in one breath really fast, am I?...Shit. Damn lack of periods.

 

Anyway,

 

I mean at the smaller instances. Like greeting. They dont hurt shit. Period. Don't see why anyone should get annoyed with them.

I can see all of your points. Those are not much to ask at all. its all the extra tiny shit that gets added every so often.

 

ps, pay no attention to the edited quote...I gots bored.

I wanted to say hey to you scootacool, haven't seen you much

You keep raising hell, sooner or later majority get's it.

GREAT FIX BRAH, WE DIDN'T NEED IT.

 

If my post count rises, I'm going to get pissed.
