It's not going to work.

I think the restructuring shouldn't have altered Speak Freely. It's a slippery slope waiting to happen. The admins drew the line at something which could be discussed, even if it was a 'Fuck you, haha.'

No one is going to come down here to the badlands just to call out and flame regular members. They'll do it in SF. And if one line isn't good enough, they'll add as many as needed.

That's not the point. Make it something more than a pointless fuck you, ha ha topic and then it's fine. If not then it goes in here. It's very simple really, I don't see what the fuss is about.

FUCK YOU, IDIOT!

YOU'RE A MINDLESS ROBOT AND YOU SHOULD BE DIE!

DISCUSS!!!

Why bother making a distinction?

 

[Mentalist]

There is no distinction, both belong in here.

 

[MessengerX]

So, no flaming threads in Speak Freely? Hmm, interesting.

Dictatorships usually give their people the right to free speech. Of course, if they live, they have to exercise it from jail cells were no one can hear them.

 

[Caitriona]

Flaming is allowed in each and every forum on TK. It's what we're about.

But spam disguised as flaming belongs in a spam forum.

 

[Sarek]

And with 19+ admins, you guys will never come to a concensious on what's spaming vs flaming.

 

[Caitriona]

LOL...........

 

[VKD]

I'm afraid it's simply unworkable with the philosophy of TK. Where are the lines drawn?

noone is going to agree on what defines spamming... you'll need to open a TK equivalent of Mod Actions..

if you want genuine freedom of speech, you're just gonna have to put up with situations like when the Ranter Cunts invaded last week -you can't have it both ways...

 

[PHJ]

Anyone coming to a consensus about any subject whatsoever on TK would feel... unnatural, somehow.

Seriously, if it is a close call, we'll opt to leave it where it is. Look, this isn't about bring so much structure in that we aren't TK any more. It's about having some means to try and reduce the clutter when we get invaded. We don't ban, we don't want to discourage anyone, but we also want the board to be useable for all of us.

If it is questionable, it'll probably just stay put. I don't have the time or energy to read each and every post in SF anyway. You know that.

For the love of god, I actually agree with dickhead.

And something else needs to be remembered here. While spaming was a small problem on the site (but expected and tolerated) the current flood of duals and spaming was created by an admin on this site that, shall we say, "visited" some other sites and invited some of these retards here. In a way, it's payback. We have the daycare. Use it as intended. If a single member or a group gets out of hand, toss them in there for a bit. But don't slam the whole membership of the site because of a few morons and a handful of duals by having a board restructure that affects everyone.

 

[Sarek]

Here's an idea though. As this is turning into a serious discussion, can we just cut out all the retarded DLA crap from the replies and move the discussion up tp QSF?

 

[MessengerX]

I intended for this discussion to take place in The Badlands. Thank you for voicing your opinion, Sarek.

Damn, when you're right, you're right. [yes, I realize that means VDK is right too] This new year is off to a strange start.

 

[smegMATIC]

Soooo..... what brought all this paranoia, pissing, and moaning on anyway? :mrgreen:

 

[MessengerX]

It might have been your spam, or not.
