an idea for otd
#7896613 - 01/18/08 09:12 AM (16 years, 14 days ago) |

this may have been brought up before, but why not make it invite only. i know, i know, i remember the drama about the tiki lounge and secret forums, but seeing as how most people want otd sent the way of the dinosaurs as is, how could this hurt?
give the forum mods the ability to let people in or kick them out, and let us democratically vote in/out whoever we want
if not keeping ourselves a little better contained and other members from being offended is enough, then surely some hilarity will ensue as regulars are occasionally banned

Yeah this has been talked about before, the general consensus is that the disclaimer is enough.

If it will be invite-only, then who gets appointed as the chosen inviters?
Let's just kick everyone out of there, then let the admins invite whomever they want. Now there's a solid idea if ever there was one.
The solution is simple: If you don't like it there, don't go in there.

horrible idea
i dont see why people in otd have to start bang wagons/threads like this just because there are those that don't meet with their posting requirements.

How about we institute automatic bans of anyone making a thread in WA&F complaining about something in OTD?

i get to choose, bitch!
but seriously, i think the disclaimer is enough. if some noob didn't read it and gets offended, that's their fault for being retarded, not OTD's.

this isn't about newbs being offended, this is about us not having to deal with their bullshit when they decide to hurl it in our forum like the recent flood of puppets
this would prevent most acts of puppetry...except for those that stein would inevitably let sneak in

Just make your own forum, and you and other OTD people can post there. It makes no sense to have an insular forum, when you could just start your own forum. Hell you could even have hanky back, the fuck I care.

after reading this, I have no idea why you locked the jailbait thread.
I can only assume it offended YOU.
