I don’t wanna see this thread die. I for one really appreciate Tittles’ outreach here and am excited to see what sort of changes may be around the corner. I think having custom reaction sets depending on threads is interesting, but if were to do that, I think there needs to be some mechanism to “borrow” from other reaction sets.

For example, we might have the following reaction set for the Politics thread:

1. MAGA
2. Swastika
3. Communist
4. Jew
5. Poop

Then in like horn’s salty thread we’d have:

1. worf
2. potato
3. salty
4. hodjing

If you wanted to borrow a reaction from another thread’s reaction set, you could either earn it by receiving those reactions in that thread, or it could be added to the shop.

That is just a thought of how i think Tiggle’s idea could be implemented, but in any case it is a pretty cool idea.

I think putting it in your sig is actually breaking the rools.

I mean if you had "me for amod" in your sig, which i'm not saying that you do.

This thread isn't campaigning. It's talking about new rules changes/policy changes, which is also what is supposed to go down during election season.

That said, I'm not seeing a lot of discussion about the actual rules and policies proposed in the OP. Silence on this topic will be construed by me as lack of support for the proposed rules, so...

I mean I think a lot of it is soft moderation by the participants.

People will bitch at zap sometimes, and it doesn't seem to accomplish anything. But you're allowed to bitch at him. If someone really wanted to stir the shit they could just link/quote every twitter post he makes with some complaint or snarky comment. If they wanted to be super meta they would quote it on their twitter feed and link THAT. Inception level. It wouldn't take many days of doing that at all to spark a straight up convention of the thread, and you'd see a heated argument where we all use increasingly obtuse, obscene, and outdated racial slurs to talk about the etiquitte of politics while calling each other fags except for the actual fags who we would imply just haven't found the right pussy yet.

If all someone is doing is seeing a zap twitter spam and hitting the report button but not posting to the thread or directly confronting zap... lurk moar. it's never enough.

It's hard to make a hard fast rule about something that is more along the lines of a communal understanding which is subject (and needs to) change over the course of time and exactly who is participating in the discussion.

Most threads are along the lines of "don't be a complete dick". Except the politicis thread where it is "be the biggest swinging dick you can be".

The reason your frowny face reaction was denied when you suggested it before is that it's a fucking stupid suggestion. Hey guys, lets make the forum more generic and facebook like! Yeah, no.

As for those specific reactions, putting commie/nazi reactions in the politics thread/general forum just brings everything down. If you can't do better in your criticism and mockery than resorting to calling people commie/nazi then you need to go read a book and then come back and post something more creative.

As for the shaw, those reactions are ALREADY THERE you moron.


Next time, maybe hand your concerns off to another poster who hasn't outed themselves as an idiot before you make them so they have a better shot of being taken seriously.

Different moderating per thread? Bad idea. Who wants to construct - and then have to reference - the rules for each thread? And people can get infracted for not knowing some things aren't allowed in some threads? Eh.

Whole lots of nope, sorry. Just keep to the normal rules - don't spam, don't be an insufferable ass (Brando, Teekley, Screamfeeder excluded of course), keeps tits and vag in SS, etc.

Thank you for your feedback! I had noticed that sometimes certain reactions weren’t available at all times, but hadn’t realized it was thread specific. So what you are saying is that what Tiggs proposed is already implemented to a certain extent. That is super cool.

Also, on the frowny face, we are totally cool, I just still feel it would be so useful and Tiggs asked what we wanted, so I offered that. I meant no offense.

Does Facebook really use frowny faces though? I’ve never used it, so idk.

You don't know the difference between a forum and a thread?

Here, I'll link you a tutorial on it.

I feel this is a very minor rule change and as I said and other people have echo'd we already Self moderate in a lot of our forums, But the devil is in the details and having a small amount of rigidity on what the tone of the thread is and what to expect would probably be a good idea.

I second the motion for separating nudity from non nudity in the screenshots forum. I mean, the threads already exist it's just that people insist on dumping everything into the same bin.

There is a man in my town who watches over the trash dumping place. On sundays everyone brings him the carcasses of their latest shopping hunts. I see many families disregard his carefully labeled bins and simply disgorge all of their refuse into the same receptacle. Bottles and cardboard and cans all laying together.

The pain on this man's face and the slump of his shoulders as he raises one hand in a futile gesture to stop the tangled tragedy are a more emotive and powerful display than anything I have seen expressed on film or on stage.

I think of this man's haunted eyes everytime I see a new wave of porn has been freshly dumped into the FSR. I don't want to be thinking about a man's face when I am looking at a womans' breast. Please help.

I think we should be able to make our own reactions and react them.
