GOOD DAY: Feedback
-
@GF No, it should not. Pavel, Pyre and I agree on that and I’ve edited rather than deleted so that board users can view the original post if they wish to have a better idea of content we deem inappropriate.

My suggestion of “fire it into the sun” was deemed too expensive, and technically a violation of the Outer Space Treaty of 1967.

HOW WILL ANYONE KNOW I’M A DIRECT CONFRONTATOR NOW
-
@Roz I recommend flashing scrolling marquis blink html with embedded midi file in your signature.
-
@Tez I miss having a special pony by my name. I don’t know what it meant.
-
I was getting a flood of new people joining direct confrontation in particular because I think that’s where we kept the good stuff. I too grieve for ponies lost when making the cuts in favor of easier understanding.

FIRST, WE DONT GET OUR PERSONALIZED BAN MESSAGE FROM DISCORD, AND NOW THIS?!?
-
@Jennkryst I take no responsibility for the Discord. That was all @Meg!!!

WHERE IS MY GODDAMN PONY.

Yes hello, I have some feedback.
I want to see a shrine for memorable threads, the kinds that hold up to time and make you say, “I remember that and it was <something adjectival or metaphorical>.”
-
@dvoraen Pls provide an example of what this might be. I do not understand the purpose.
-
@Tez Well, the best(???) example I can think of is the DWOPP thread on MSB where he basically outs himself. It’s both anecdotal and an example of, “Yes, this is real and it happens and it’s instructive you be aware of this.”
I’m not saying glorify the creeper/predator threads; the pendulum should swing both ways and include other threads like Crawfishy’s cat art thread because that should be archived for posterity too!
-
@dvoraen Well, we won’t be importing threads from other forums. But we also don’t really intend on deleting threads either, so they’ll always be there to see and link to.
It’s possible that when a thread has been unused for a while, it’ll be moved to a read-only archive section, but we’ve not been around long enough to even have discussions on that topic, yet.

RE: Bolded. Not my intention here. That was strictly an example so Tez got where I was coming from. All I’m saying is that we should have a section – or sections, if we want to quarantine the bad from the good – for posterity!
ETA - I should probably add part of why I bring this up is whether admins can disable editing and deletion in the bad-posters archive so that there will always be a receipt to refer to when someone tries to claim “I never said that”.

Well, honestly, the whole place is for posterity. It’s a possibility for the future, but the conversations we’d want to preserve are still actively engaged with at the moment.
-
@Pavel Yeah, I’m getting at a “down the line” kind of scenario. Not “omg do it now so we have a RECORD of what’s going on RIGHT THIS SECOND” kind of mentality.

I believe there’s functionality to allow that.
But I don’t think anyone would want us being the arbiters of what’s worth preserving and what isn’t. So I’d say some kind of age cutoff? “This thread hasn’t been posted in for six months, let’s archive it.”
-
@Pavel I leave it up to admins to decide on whether it’s even something of merit. I’m just one of those people that subscribes to the whole “The Internet remembers” mentality. Like Pepperidge Farm.

Nah, man. We’re janitors, not governors. It’s up to you lot.
