Only reason for 77 is treating fellow board residents with a level of trust that you feel it's safe to disclose. Nothing wrong with not wanting to share or not wanting to see others share when you're not going to reciprocate.

not really, but dude c'mon
I think shakey and stanM should both be inducted, and given honorary 77 threads

i'm fine w/ stan m being a weirdo abt 77 so long as it doesnt lead to any threads being deleted

shakey is the only person on ILX not allowed on 77
why? because shakey's not cool enough
*cries*
― the alternate vision continues his vision quest! (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 11 July 2012 23:31 (twelve years ago) link
shakey, 77 only exists so that regular users of ILX have a space to talk about things they wouldn't necessarily want accessible to lurkers and/or random googlers of ILX. the only requirement to be admitted to 77 is that you be a regular poster on the board. that and you have to have a klout score of about 75.

Shakey, just opt in. It's not all "hilarious noodz".

maybe a good reason for not joining 77 is feeling that your posts would be un googleable & so ineligible for the crossover market. like shouting down a well, you would be depriving the wider internet of your well-typed insight, & missing out on a bigger audience share.

it started out as a place for the cool kids but now is pretty much just like the rest of ilx. there are threads about all kinds of stuff including music and movies
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 11 July 2012 23:50 (twelve years ago) link
shakey there's like 4 years worth of threads on there now (some of them actually p great) aren't you at least remotely curious?

Shakey Mo might not be aware of goddamn numbers in the titles of things or hipsters who don't believe the beatles are popular.

omg, you were actually part of that initial conversation and you didn't even know that there was an epic spin-off thread:

― t. s. idiot (loves laboured breathing), Thursday, 12 July 2012 11:15 (twelve years ago) link
Shaky, a couple things:
1) I don't know the percentage of ILX on 77 now, but surely these days the onus of elitism falls on the holdouts
2) Yoi started a thread about another poster in ILE, one with a very public profile, one who had taken great pains to keep demarcations between his public & ILX selves separate, one who is usually the first to object whenever other posters are singled out with their own threads. Despite all this, he took the thread with good humor, and only asked that it be moved to 77 so he could have the privacy to talk freely about w/e he was going to say, considering he had a wikipedia troll who continuously posted his ILX username on his page.. And instead of good-naturedly holding your nose & taking the plunge,--considering that it was on 77 at behest of the person you started it about--you claimed propietary right and had it deleted in a huff. Do you see how that might not be, like, totally cool
― t. s. idiot (loves laboured breathing), Thursday, 12 July 2012 11:29 (twelve years ago) link
fwiw I didn't know that about his wikipedia troll. tbh I have like zero knowledge of his non-ILX-related activities. I had figured since the thread was exclusively about things he's posted on ILM, and nothing more, that it probably wouldn't be a big deal - it was simply an expression of my ongoing fascination with where our tastes both diverge and overlap and it was meant it good humor. I didn't know he was skittish about it - and he's entirely within his rights to ask that the thread be moved/modified/deleted - but I was completely unaware of his feelings about it and the thread just disappeared. which, from my POV, was fairly irritating. (If aero expressed his concerns on the thread or ILX-mailed me or something, I missed it). I'm sorry if I've inconvenienced ua in anyway and I'd be happy to let him know that. nothing but love and respect for him, he is a bro.
That being said, I feel I'm entirely within my rights to ask for a thread I started to be deleted, rather than to have it continue in a venue I have no interest in participating in.

what difference does it make to you whether it carries on somewhere you can't see, or gets deleted?

What about your office? Can anyone wander over to your desk from the street?
Okay, enough with the analogies. You're a quality poster, but when you throw around words like "elite" to describe 77, it really sounds like you don't quite get the gist of why that board exists. You don't have to gain entrance if you don't want it, but it seems more of a stubborn action to take than one that has any merit.
