if an ilx beef threatens to take over a perfectly innocent thread you can politely direct people here.

what is the collective noun for board lawyers

when the entire 'harm' of a post can and is immediately undone by editing the offending post so it's googleproofed, a ban of any length of time does seem very extreme. do we still do yellowcards? that's totally yellowcard territory. that's fuckin' ocean avenue right there.

i think the context of the "irl zing" should be taken into context and suggests the need for a time-out. but then if i got temp-banned for typos and overposting i'd probably be grateful.

it's really going to be hard to make a decision about this issue until every single person who posts on ilx weighs in with their opinion

this is amazing

k3v you let me down :(

bringing back yellowcards would be a delight.

err on the side of forced vacations, imo

do approve of 'ocean avenue' entering the ilxecion as a synonym for yellowcarding, though.

be careful what u wish for crut

it already was

Creepy superfans are real, even to obscure has-beens like myself, and are the reason I am very coy on ILX (ILM, mostly) when people ask about my real identity, even without nasty intent. Whipping that shit out in a penis waving context is simply uncool, and I don't think a time-out is a huge deal.

think everybdy else is just doing a good enough job of not being dicks anymore, so they arent getting yellowcarded. OR they're being real dicks and getting banned. OR mods are just chiillin, smokin a bowl.

that's my point, nakh. doing anything else once that's been done is redundant or overkill. (xpost)

TWU i'm super curious now!

are there really creepy superfans who are gonna get wise to someone being on ilx because their name was posted for 5 minutes before being googleproofed/deleted? only people who are gonna see it are people who are on the board all the time and either already know or were gonna figure it out eventually anyway.

we should all just assume that we're all minor semi-celebs with wacko fans.

i don't want to say i spend a lot of time curating my imdb page but i'm just saying

not that i'm unsympathetic to aero's position, it's an awkward one to be in and he's taken pains to be clear about how he feels many times. (xpost)

k3v you let me down :(

sorry bro :(

maybe i'm mellowing in my old age. mods also aren't sucking so much anymore. anyway i did register my dissent!

"why put someone in jail for theft when you can just give back what they stole?" it's a punitive effort to keep people from breaking the code of conduct

I think the point is that most people post here under a pseudonym for a reason, and breaching that pseudonymity should warrant an e-spanking.

Particularly when it's pointedly vengeful.

i kinda feel like, if a poster offends you by calling you by your real name, or being a fucking dick, it's within your rights to ask mods for a tempban. whether or not they do so is another thing, but if they do, everyone should chill. a tempban is hardly a big deal.

i have a dedicated group of creepy superfans too - which is all of your moms - so don't say my name pls or they will keep calling me

lol oh, k3v

my mum is NOT creepy

both morbs' and turanglia's tempbans were over the weekend. i think we'll see him again on tuesday.

think maybe we should tempban Melissa, too? i mean, she did start all of this after all

No, I don't think she had anything to do with it. Temp ban me I guess for making turanglia so upset if you're going to tempban anybody.

you and some dude have really earned your woodworking merit badges today

no, Nicole. the bullies won this time. we live to persecute another day.

lol xpost

turangalila's tempban should be less than 24 hrs imo, whatever the 'offense' dude did googleproof and was apologetic and is apparently a chill dude generally.

not too late to tempban all three, think about it

yeah I mean from where I sit +/- an hour later a ban's excessive - but from where it felt in-thread, when I had not done jack shit to this asshole to merit even a zing (but w/e, I can take my zings, also I like ani d. + she makes ridiculous money so I'll take anything that puts me in that orbit) to then haul out the unprovoked attack & follow it w/ "oh let me make sure I id you by name!"...like seriously dude? what the fucking fuck? you post under a pseud too & nobody's being a dick to you about it, they just chill & call you by yr screenname instead of imagining that they've been insulted and going out of their way to piss you off

it was such a weak set of posts he deserved a tempban tbh. if ur gonna real-name someone u best not miss

i actively support tempbanning all bad posters btw

dude actually refused to apologize for saying nicole was dangerous to those around her

said it was the "wrong time and place" for him to voice his concern

max!

Nicole is cool, never temp ban her

The police are going to be at my house when I get home, aren't they. xxp

lol I actually thought the zing was funny & it gave me a lol, it was his "tee-hee! real name!" followup. I mean if anybody hears even a cosmetic similarity between what I do and what Ani does they're basically saying "I am stone deaf & know nothing about music" on a music board so that's kind of more on dude than me
