Woah
« on: February 27, 2008, 06:45:08 pm »

Has anyone seen the "I didn't want to have to do this" thread in the Achewood section?
Are these the same people who READ Achewood?
Have they seen themselves?

I only just came here, I've been trawling around the assetbar for ages, and I thought this place might have a sense of humour. This was the first fuck*ng thread I opened. Seeya, fuckheads.

I guess I'll probably be banned for swearing anyway.

Wow, that thread really works. 

It establishes a protocol for strip-related threads *and* repels assholes. 

Nice work, AW.

Do you think we could get that asshole-repelling property in, like, a spray can or something? I could definitely use it in areas of life other than the messageboard.

"Establishes a protocol"?

Jeez, you guys have no concept of the irony do you?

So Asherdan, you've regulated where we can have fun? That's very kind. It must have been madness before you established the protocols.

By the way, seeing you guys thought I'd left, exactly who are you trying to convince by posting here? Four posts, three moderators. It's OK, no-one's going to steal your little fiefdom. Your Mom still thinks you're cool.

But... but our mom was the first person who replied.

We were just trying to stop lame "first post!" posts that plague blogs and message boards everywhere. We're all about the content. Also education and wandering threads.

By enforcing the spelling out of the month? Good luck with that.

If you hate it so much, why are you still here?  Do us all a favor and fuck off.

Okay, just to get some things straight. 

We do not "enforce" anything.  We ask people to put full dates *only* in the threads relating to new strips, as a courtesy to the others reading the board. 

We do not edit others' posts here.  The only time that happened, another admin and I didn't speak to each other for a week.  It's not a thing we do. 

Third, we have a pretty good idea of what the definition of irony is.  You don't seem to know, but if you stick around, I'm sure one of our resident linguists could fill you in. 

Fourth, Asherdan did not regulate where you can have fun.  I did.  (Jough helped.) 

Fifth, we're going into our fifth year in this particular incarnation, and many of us were involved in the debacle that was the Achewood board at Dumbrella.  We've been at this long enough to know what's going on.  We're not worried about anyone stealing our "little fiefdom."  The reason most of the respondents so far have been mods is that most of the regulars around here *are* mods.  We've got, like, twenty.  I can't even keep track.  Point is, we don't need you or your ass-bar friends to prop us up.  We know who we are and we like what we do.  If you want to be a part of the community, we welcome you with open arms.  We've proven time and time again that we're happy to have new members, and we don't haze newbies.  But we have plenty of new people coming in every day with quality posts and insightful comments that we don't need to cater to douchebags like you. 

The only reason this thread isn't locked right now is to give you an opportunity to respond if you like.  But this conversation will be ending soon, as it reflects poorly on the board to spend too much time making mincemeat of such an easy target.  So by all means, farq, lambast away. 

But to my people, I must request: don't feed the trolls.

He did link a quality strip. And I, for one, like our little fiefdom.
