ADMIN LOG WATCH 2

fwiw I think yr doin a kickass job

I agree with what you did emil.y. I killfile the posters who post their violent fantasies and fp them when I’m on zing. If those posts become normal here then I’ll leave ilx.

we need a new word for killfile

You've got 20 FPs in the last 2 days. Ease off.

Where did that come from?

And what's it doing on this thread?

Well, it is the admin log watch

So where did it come from?

the admin log

[Removed Illegal Link]

it's at the bottom of "boards"

oh, link didn't work.

click on "boards" up to, scroll to bottom, click on "admin log"

lol did jaymc seriously get banned from the 'Ideas for ILX' thread after asking 'Is there a way to killfile a thread instead of a poster?'

So, it's open for anyone on the board to see. Is that a good idea?

it's been that way for 10+ years

there's a whole thread dedicated to posting about updates to it (this one)

Did you not get your yellowcard?

Why though?

Disappointing. Then again, getting threadbanned doesn't prevent you from reading said thread, which is the root of the problem here.

xp

True. I suspect I know which thread it is, a good idea to avoid seeing it imo is to not post there, and to post in other threads to bump it down.

Why though?

transparency?

And how is that any different from Tombot warning silby in the middle of a thread how many FPs he's got?

Tom i say this with love but who caaaaaaares, it’s too hot for this shit

xp

yeah i didn't see whatever you're talking about, but also i am not one of the people involved so...*backs toward door*

I think there's a good argument for making yellow cards private, or at least the contents of them? But it did come out of the general board demand for logging all mod actions back in the day, not sure if other people would push back against making them private.

Well, I think they should be private because I can honestly see no reason why they shouldn't be. In this particular case, all it needs is for some malicious individual(s) who can't stand the poster in question to hammer in a few FPs and they're out.

Good work there, mods!

you'd still need 30 such individuals

and if there are 30 people on ILX who want you banned on top of the 20 who've already fp'd you then i daresay you're doing something wrong

I think if you get such a note on the admin log, it’s probably not a huge mystery to you that you’re pissing off that many people, no?

(xp) Yes but I don't know how many FPs I'd had before I called Tombot a dick do I?

i would presume very few indeed xp

but you can ask

That's my assumption as well.

2xp

I have no idea.

One FP per person is how it works.

Tombot telling silby "you are generally disliked" is the action that seemed inappropriate for a mod, particularly the likely element of personal projection. Plenty of ppl may have felt warmly toward silby as a poster and person, while also thinking that many of their posts while in an agitated streak were out of line.

Tom you have to acknowledge that it is extremely funny, over three thousand posts into the thread of (ppl but especially sarahel) c+p-ing updates from the Admin Log, to suddenly be surprised that someone (in this case sarahel) c+p'ed an update from the Admin Log

How many FPs did Tombot garner for that threat?

(xp) I have never visited the Admin Log, didn't even know where it was!

lol xp

here tom rolling FP number request thread

Fairly sure I fped you but not for calling Tombot a dick, it was for being a penis in some other thread.

(xp) Fuck that, who am I, Oliver Fucking Twist?

Oliver Twist was famously young

aw, was gonna come in with "yes, you may have some more"

I'm not going to make a big deal about it but it strikes me as a bit weird, especially as I gave Tombot pelters for doing much the same thing, i.e., letting everybody on the board know someone else's business.

It has a tinge of irony, I'll give you that.

FPs are everyone's business! haha
