Now, back to the Restructureament.

I'm saying it's not going to work, because I will troll it. Where as now, where CPL meta-trolls GG threads, in their own GG sub-forum, the GG dot crowd will be lured in under a false idea of security, which I will abuse, and then proceed to elicit hilarious reactions from. What's worse, going hunting for deer and waiting for them to wander by your deer blind, or going hunting for deer, and baiting them to your deer blind?


well... but that's why i'm saying that the GG subforum should be moderated by non-CPL mods.

troll away, but you can't complain when drksandman pulls rank on you.

But we already know the outcomes...which is a dead forum because the majority of CPL doesn't care. Just like all of the srs CPL private forums are dead, aside from a GG thread once or twice a season.


not those outcomes. i'm talking about random mods being summoned to ban people

but concerning the outcomes you're talking about, i'm not sure why anyone would care that a GG subforum would be dead. show of hands?


Because the entire reason they are upset now is the Johnny/Jimmy/Catherine vs. Shelby example I posted.

you can when he's unable to cite a valid rule broken for which to ban you.

mods aren't structure.
unless you're saying that the only reason certain mods are shitty is because of the current moderation structure.

I'd say the only reason shitty mods are still mods are because of the current shitty moderation structure.

well, now you've got yourself a structural argument.
but a mod purge still isn't the answer until you change the moderation structure first.

But either way, it's necessary.


agreed... but a little beyond our scope.

i mean skope.

well... that's somewhat the effect of being closer to the subject -- you see the granularity in things. kind of like how only a wine snob would insist that a vinho verde really isn't a white wine.

the perception of the CPL as equivalent to FFA or even /b/ is still a valid perception, no matter how wrong it technically is.


It's a valid perception in the sense that somebody who speaks neither czechoslovakian nor polish could confuse the two. That is to say, it's an ignorant and incorrect perception


no such thing as czechoslovakia ldo


I debated doing czech versus slovak, but let's face it- those are about as different as portugese and spanish.


You'd know those are different if you were less ignorant and incorrect >:O

Really, the fact that four moderators, who by the definition of the job should ease tension on the forum, have managed to escalate the tensions to the point where the administrators have sanctioned the creation of this private forum speaks volumes of their ability to perform their assigned tasks.

Except, since their forum is dead, they complain that the non-GG forum is active, and if they post there, they get flamed. Most of the complaints aren't because they dislike the forum, it is because they dislike other people having fun and want it taken away...regardless if they have a GG forum or not.


but that's the point of the structure.

the creation of the GG forum (subject to universal forum rules) means that the CPL forum (subject to whatever rules you guys create) means that the GG crowd can never complain about how they're treated in the CPL forum.

But they'll still complain about wanting our parents killed because they're happy.
