Yes, Cain. I believe that conversation ended with
>that was kind of you but you know perfectly well my comments are valid whether I phrase them in such a way to please the natives or not
>I've pointed out the iceberg to the people on the ship. if they want to argue with me about it I really couldn't give a fuck
Coming on here and declaring open season on me is the petty bullying behaviour that (I see as) part of the problem.

Faust, I hope you're right and I'm wrong, for Eris's sake.
You want my suggestions? Change the board software, discourage this atmosphere of cliques and circle-jerking. Kusaba X is open source. Instate rules and mods who actively discourage the memetic cancers that boards acquire over time, all this daily-post, navel-gazing horseshit. Discourage the import of generic internet culture and try to encourage development of new ideas and fresh content. Might work, might not. Just some suggestions, I'm not omniscient.

We would be happy to hand the reins over to you, we'll just need a cashier's check first, spanky. :lulz:

bds, care to elaborate on "people who agree with him"?

Just out of a sense of malicious curiosity, mind you.

I mostly just meant that there were several people on IRC who said things to the effect of "well, you kind of have a point, but your tone was absurd, and to post on PD telling everyone that they're doing it totally wrong is just trolling'. Like, I think maybe there is an interesting discussion to be had somewhere about different kinds of forum software and different discordian communities and such, but obviously just going LOL UR DOIN IT RONG is a dick move.

Bitches, please. Do you really have such low standards for success that you take someone going momentarily afk as evidence that you've scared them away with your big scary words? Reason to start crowing about how internet-tough you are?
You're all adults, aren't you? So why resort to this school-yard bullying behaviour? Can't you see it's completely ineffective on the internet?
I absolutely adore the fact that you all find it easier to believe there's someone out to get you and I'm just a sockpuppet, rather than accept that when someone criticises you, maybe you're doing something wrong. When it happens once or twice, sure it might be a troll. When it repeatedly happens and your entire site is a mausoleum of users who've left, decorated with "testimonials" from discontented users, held out like some sort of pre-emptive ironic defence, it starts to look a little bit sad. But sure, blame it on trolls, blame it on the economy, blame it on website life-cycles, blame it on the sunshine, blame it on the splitters, blame it on the domain-name-coveting-illuminati.

peace out, wankers.
:enough:

At risk of pointing out the GLARINGLY OBVIOUS...

Those of us who are HERE, those of us WHOSE SITE THIS IS, well...

we like it here. We like it how it is.

Your opinion has been given all the consideration that it deserves. YOU have been given all the consideration that you deserve. And if you REALLY want that domain name, well, I won't say that Faust and I are reasonable men but we're certainly willing to part a sucker from his money.

I've clearly missed something.

What are these other communities that he curates? Obviously they're packed with exciting and original content that puts this place to shame.

Seriously, saying you have "other communities" that are much better than this one and yet not naming any seems a little spineless to say the least. If you're going to claim superiority, at least try and fucking show it.

It's a real word and everything:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curate
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curator

Though probably wrongly used. What I meant here was "Which other forums is he lurking and butthurt on?"

See, I was hoping HE'D used that word.  What he said was "attend to".

Curate is far more Ben Mack ("Steward my reputation").

Well the implication remains the same. He apparently has places where he's not viewed as a tedious little turd.

I doubt any will get named as it would probably prove the above to be rather wrong.

Maybe I'm losing all my happy thoughts, but I'm tired of being the punching bag.

Really, really tired.

My money's on pick up artist forums.

Not kidding.

The real irony is that the reason he found this board in the first place was because I sent him links to a few of the many creative projects that have stemmed from it, and from the big ole meanies here, over the last few years.  :lol:

Holy shit, I think we have a winner.
