the mods are doing a good job most of the time. Though sometimes they could react quicker to obvious spam/porn.

i'm only affraid if i can be banned for a drunk post ? is it as harmful as a thread ?

Pink there is a huge difference between drunken spam threads and the chillout threads in florida and atlanta. if i went through the miami chillout thread, i could find atleast 50 different topics that have been discussed, i bet i couldnt find 10 if i added up all of the topics discussed in every drunken thread since they became popular.

I understand the greater point

I have never created a drunk thread and never plan to, I just don't understand why there isn't one stickied in c0r, if there were this whole "discussion" would not be happening. People who start frunk threads would get their 48 hour bans. And they would have no one to blame but themselves, they had an option and they didn't use it. Right now there is no option

Originally posted by Coup if u want to be scientific sure, but u implied that ours we're larger than mr normal due to our "position of power" - i can assure u i have no ego from modding, it does my head in. I'd love to just use ta like everyone else, and not face this bombardment of crap all the time, members complaining, the PM's, everything else. Why do you think most mods bugger off within 6 months? they're all for it, and then u never see them again. Me and Neo are about the only ones who have stuck it out hardcore.

listen, i know how it feels to be a mod. Try reading more than 100 poems a day looking for obscene content, suicidal references, and basic gibber gabber that doesn't belong in a poetry forum.

I know how that is........ but there is a PRIDE involving "moderatorship". If not, why do it? You are the "role models".........you are the people everyone goes to if they have a problem. It's a leadership role, and along with leadership comes responsibilities and gratification for a job well done.

Now, im just going to say, in the end, it does help out the ego when people commend on on a job well done, no?

I think that's only natural.

but it can get annoying being a 3rd party, having to read that all the time

well if you get banned it's for something you have said so of course they would have to blame themselves.

marjority rules. alot of ppl didn't like them and a rule was set. is the drunk thread really that important in your life?

like we said, it's a matter of principle.

the mods are taking away something that was pretty popular around here. The main reason why it's been banned is cuz there were TOO MANY of them........ok, immaturity too, but oh noezzzz!!!!

Immaturity on the internet?! Who would've thought!

regardless, the problem wasn't fixed. People kept posting drunk threads, and got banned, even in light of the new rule lol.

best option is to sticky a drunk thread.....and if it sucks, and no one uses it........then to hell with this whole thing.


EDIT, and stren- not tellin. That's a section of my internet life i keep to myself

No, but you did forget to log out StreakFury, or you stole his book of birthday poems.

lemme take one more stab at this,

I don't post on the interent while drunk, I don't have the powers of concentration to do so. I get online and next thing I know I have ten windows open and I am interested in none of them. Hell, I don't even know how half of them got there.

This is a theoretical arguement to me.

I understand that c0r is currently faced with a problem. People are getting annoyed by a plethera of drunk threads. TA is a community and when a significant part of the community has an issue it is right and proper that the mods step in. So the mods did step in, they made a rule. I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE RULE. The issue that I do have is that there has been no solution given.

Many drunk threads are incredibly pointless and stupid. It is completely normal that most people don't want to see or read them. There are a few people however (generally discribed as c0r whores) who live their TA lives for drunk threads. It's their entertainment. They don't post in music, don't post in sports, don't post anywhere but c0r. These people are also owed something by the community.

TA's as a comunity have a "right" to browse the c0r without seeing 48 "omg I am wasted" threads. But others, the TA's that do enjoy posting drunk threads, are also owed something. They should have somewhere to post their drunk nonesense!

At the current time now the only solution that has been presented is that they should post in their local forums. I am saying thats not good enough. c0r is a community. Just like any of the regional forums there are c0r regulars, c0r lurkers, and c0r newbies. If Floorfiller (for example) posted something in the CO. thread odds are very good I would never see it. but if he puts in in c0r I am very likely to see it. If the only possible sollution is to force him (once again, for example) to post in the CO. thread I am being deprived of a part of my online community. There are a lot of various forums, the new SETA forum has a forum ID of 86. Does that mean that I should have to drop into 86 seperate forums to find out what is going on? Doesn't this defeat the purpose of having a c0r to begin with?

And the answer is so simple, make a drunk thread and sticky it. People posting new drunk threads get suspended

who has the "god, please make it stop" image? thats how i feel at the moment.

how about one sticky drunk/stoned thread?

I'm sure many

as im also sure many oppose your feeling

At the very least, props to Coup and Neo
for letting this thread continue instead of closing it



there thats better, i think more than one mod let this thread stay open so you could discuss it

Me and Neo dont close threads just because its not what we want to hear. We dont close threads if theres a discussion, even if it is aimed at us.

We've both been on abit of a rampage this weekend, but if u find all of our threads, they'll all be spam, repeats, or outright nonsense.

my apologies sir

Coup had been part of the ongoing discussion so I was think on him particularly. However I did see your name in the list of people browsing, so kudos to you as well

We should start a drunk thread in here.

It will be nice & safe. *cracks open beer*

Originally posted by Wicked Neo power abuse ? no trying to keep down the amount of plain immature stupidity ? yes

but thats the entire purpose of cor. this is an outrage!

i think coup and neo are gay lovers. i once got in a post after coup closed a thread and neo goes in and deletes my post just so he could get the last word post some stupid shit about me. if that isn't immature i don't know what is. he's a straight up fag if you ask me. and i don't mean a cigarette you dumb limey. if you cant take as good as you give than dont be a mod.
