In regards to flaming in placesl ike the pub
    #22366231 - 10/11/15 11:42 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

So I mentioned it a week or two ago I guess, but it never really occurred to me throw the idea out there.

On almost all the forums I've been on there has been a "flame section" name isn't always that, but it's some derivative of it. It's purpose to get those spats out of places where they are not acceptable. Usually the conversation starts off innocuous enough, but soon delves into shit flinging. Kinda sucks for the OP of the thread if he isn't one involved in it, but overall it seems to make for a better place. When two people get butthurt over each other, and you lock/delete a thread or ban them, they always come back with a vengeance and shit up the place more.

It makes more sense to just toss said threads into a flame section, loosely monitor it to make sure they're not taking it way too far (like death threats) and just let the shit go. It's not really fair to dump them into RR or OTD where "anything goes". It really needs it's own special forum.

A very large portion of these threads that end in flame fests, end up locked anyways. So it's not as if you're going to be catching more BS over moving to the flame section. There it's still open, when you lock/delete it, it's done for.

I honestly feel this is something that should be done. I haven't been here since the inception of the shroomery so it might've existed, but it never has as long as I've been here. Try it out and see how it works for a month or two.

Just my 2 cents.

I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

why? those places work just like this flame section you're proposing.

Not even close.
Of course there's a lot of shit talking in OTD, but it's actually a pretty tight-knit community of active posters that aren't afraid to speak their mind about another person or idea.
Just because you don't understand the dynamic there doesn't mean that it should be used as the site's trash dump.

I understand the dynamic there.  It is a clusterfuck of mad wanking losers getting their giggles by being bitches from their moms' basements.  It has become a total bore from what it used to be since the emfs of the site have taken it over

Idk.. They've mostly surprised me as long as you're trying to have a conversation and not go in there and act a fool.

But yeah, I could see how the ZIG/emf thing would turn you off from there since he's a regular there.

Speak for yourself old man.  If the dish isn't what you're looking for put down the fuckin' fork.  There's no telling when the next viva's coming in so you might just want to choose to log in somewhere else if this spots not cutting the mustard for you anymore..  either way, don't put your shit on me.

Dude, shut up.

As opposed to a mad wanking loser getting his giggles by being a bitchy narrow minded creep-job from his own basement?

I might accept your premise if the overall drop in activity there wasn't so obvious and I don't think you are the problem.

We already have a forum for this, it's called the Town Dump and is where threads go to die a slow and painful death :evil:

Town dump is about as far from what I'm suggesting you can possibly get. I'll express my thoughts more clearly tomorrow.
