ADMIN LOG WATCH 2

idk i pretty quickly decided i had better not post on that thread at all since, as a US ilxor, anything i say that contains a whiff of negative judgment toward vp's invasion of ukraine will immediately be deplored as "rallying behind biden" or "wanting boots on the ground" or "turning this into a us politics thread" or "cosigning us foreign policy atrocities" etc etc

it's fine as I just want an ongoing understanding of what's transpiring rn

i have never FPd anyone ftr

also ftr as a child of the 80s i absolutely under no circumstances want us boots on the ground

also xyzzz is a super tiresome unfunny troll (i like calzino)

please send me my 'melt' badge by international priority thx

wouldn’t waste the money on something we can already see thx

also this is why people hate Americans in that thread

“It’s complicated”
“Wow I guess we have some Putinists here EH COMRADE”

Also if Americans are being silenced by fear of that then damn I wish it worked better cos last glance the thread was full of shit and getting worse

would also suggest the response to people going like “why is Tucker Carlson being brought up here “ was not ok, but you know, we established this was a numbers game a while ago.

break out the skin calipers everyone!

What a normal and useful thing to post, but I guess irrelevant beats callous any day

just thinking that it's only been a little over a hundred years since we had a "not our problem" policy

tbf it was a "not our problem but we own everything west of Europe" policy but yeah i know the shift is something

not saying America was ever a great country ... just that at some point it was less shitty in some ways idk

yeah i know you weren't, just pedanting about the "Europe is none of our business" era not equating to being above other kinds of colonial adventure

thought we wanted less US pol thread spillover

I get to decide what counts as spillover, mate

oh shit, caught by the fuzz!

Took VHS long enough to hit 20, but I guess there’s only so long you can continue making a fucking war about yourself and your ilx beefs.

tbf it was also about his armchair general fantasies

True but I was also including that in “about himself”. Maybe he’ll do something useful with the time, like signing up.

i appeal for calm on all sides

It's funny how telling Americans to fuck off is the most punitively addressed thing on ILX, I guess as in life

the beatles must be stewing over this

Good morning!

for the record

if an american throws popcorn at another american in a movie theater, the corned american can legally murder the thrower with a gun (in florida). so americans themselves aren't immune.

I didn't fp anyone, but if the linked post did calz in, it's because he called someone a "tool", making all self-conscious about their age. Americans want to forget the Jerky Boys.

look under the well-understood fp system its no good complaining that:

- ppl shouldnt be banned
- the wrong ppl have been banned

we should ofc be complaining that far too few ppl have been banned and demanding more from our mods

what are your demands, dear darragh?

I feel like a few Americans need to be banned as well, just to keep things even

Rhonda!! <3

I kind of self-banned, from that thread and (to a 25% commitment level) to the rest of ilx

(and def 100% from the slack)

I read the anarchist article that table posted, and it made me grasp the situation a bit better, but it was also depressing in the sense of

can't find anything I want to vote for here

also some of the small details (not war related) reminded me of my ~lyfe~ and I felt kinda depressed

Thursday, March 3, 2022 5:13 AM I Love Everything Thread: ok what the fuck is happening in the ukraine had its title updated to: ok what the fuck is happening in ukraine

thank you, this had been low-key annoying me for the past few weeks

same

I'm all for love-ins.

Poster xyzzzz__ has been here a long long time, and has always made the board a more interesting and amusing place. He shouldn't be banned.

Nice of you to say, Ward, hope you've been keeping well.

Saturday, March 12, 2022 3:58 PM I Love Everything Thread: Discussion thread for possible FP/moderation changes to ILX has been locked.

I'm going allow myself an ironic chuckle as I was one of the few people on that thread to oppose the FP changes that were canvassed for and were later voted through - changes that were designed to make ILX a calmer, more civil and friendlier sort of place!

this is really the board for ironic chuckles tbh

tee hee!

I’m the one who locked the thread, if anybody feels the need to target their invective.

it's ok, i understand. i was in the middle of a post trying to defend myself the idea that i hate women (god, wtf 2022, wtf), but i'm sure i just would have made it worse anyway

i can't find the old thread, but it seems like it shouldn't disappear: Discussion thread for possible FP/moderation changes to ILX

sometimes threads need a nice rest!!!

things have to die, i get that. threads have to die. if ilx extends to infinity, at some point, every thread will be locked. that will be amazing

I am a leprechaun gree hee hee

tee hee

can someone please invite ilxor sarahell to the slack channel?

Is the slack channel where people take huge shits over the posts that are making it onto this text based messageboard 300 fucking people total post to?

Post your business on the second thoughts thread* at least, you cowards.

*Or the second thoughts on second thoughts thread

Who gives a flying fuck of some poster named 'mini wheat' is frosting your covid or ukraine war or longboarding with brisket sandwiches thread? We aren't running out of posts jesus fuck.

And if you have prescription for somebody's health that involves recommending they post less, maybe don't deal poison on the side, you fucking children.

Every time I scroll reddit, there is either a fat man playing guitar LIVE or a skinny mustachioed man twiddling knobs LIVE. I dread the morning because i know i will open reddit and always find one of these two men. Which will it be tomorrow? Fat fractional tone bend man? Or skinny knob turning fella with text "BRITTLEBABY" in the footer? Where are the fucking slack channels that will solve this problem for me!? I can handle any posted text on this messageboard.
