Boom. Right there. The problem with this site. It's not about the free exchange of information, it's sole purpose is for people to shitpost. You're piggy-backing off of Totse's success but not following their mission statement. Somewhere along the lines it went from using our right to free speech as a means to educate one another to using our right to free speech as an excuse to bitch about garbage posts being shitcanned. -
2017-07-07 at 8:21 PM UTCNot that I really disagree but I don't think there's acceptable redress to the situation. Free speech isn't really free if you tell people what to do with it.

Moving things to the proper section would be the only viable solution to both the problem of rampant shitposting, and the problem of infringing upon free speech. It's hard to have real discussion when Spurious and Half Baked are just dumping grounds for every thread. Granted, we'll still have shitposts, but at least it can start being curved into STRUCTURED shitposting. -

I agree, I do move a fair number of threads around, it's kind of a drag to come home and herd a pack of shitposting cats into the appropriate subforums though. Maybe I should appoint some mods. -
2017-07-07 at 8:32 PM UTCFree speech is overrated when you can't get punched in the face. IRL you can get punched in the face, and this is a regulator for retards like Scronaldo. I would bully him mercilessly if he acted the same IRL. Online, with anonymity, completely unregulated speech becomes retarded.

I can only imagine. Even with mainstream software like phpBB, or e107 it's tedious as fuck. Maybe you should, but that potentially opens a whole new can of worms. -

2017-07-07 at 9:15 PM UTCSeriously though, this is a private website. If you don't like Lanny's rules go post somewhere else. Free speech means that he can tell you to shut the fuck up and ban you if he wants.

But we are not talking about speech at all. We are talking about defacement of the board. Spam is not speech. It never was speech, and it never will be speech, as hard as you wish it were. Your problem is, you don't know the difference between speech and garbage. In fact, your kind like to call actual speech garbage, and garbage speech. Your backwards, and that's been the actual problem all along. The spammers haven't been the problem, it's your incorrect and self-serving way of reasoning that's been the problem. -

2017-07-07 at 10:05 PM UTCNo, you're just hammering your head against the wall because being a mod on a dying site was the pinnacle of your lonely little existence and you'll never experience it again because everyone who knows you name knows you're a piece a shit not to be trusted with even the slightest modicum of power
