But I do love the irony of the long-term sticky started by a banned poster.
“as we see fit”. It’s right there. Can’t you see it?
Nitpick:
He resigned.
Why I feel it necessary to point that out, I have no idea.
Then it’s a lame observation. Happy, pappy?
I agree. In the last twelve months: The Pit’s gotten fluffy.
Also:
MPSIMS has gone totally mindless.
IMHO is just GQ questions to which there is no answer.
Cafe Society is endless threads about endless TV programs I have no knowledge of.
Great Debates has more snark and vitriol than the pit ever had.
General Questions is full of more debate than ever.
About this message Board is full of locked threads which should have been full of SDMB memes
Only the two comments forums have stayed the same. And they were just there to let guests make their first posts anyway.
Not to mention how low-brow the whole thing is. This is farther than the bucket.
That’s rather the question. Are the mods that are on Pit duty reading the threads? Because some of these are obvious fluff, if not from the title, then from the first couple of lines.
[thread=436403]Hey, leave the mini-rant thread for mini-rants![/thread]
From sentence #2 of that OP:
[thread=435973]Just pit things that make you sad.[/thread]
Of course, I won’t get my hopes up that MPSIMS stays out of the BBQ Pit, since one of the Pit Mods participated in the “things that make you sad” thread, so I guess that’s the answer I was looking for. MPSIMS wins, apparently, and that sucks.
Well, maybe these aren’t the Druids you are looking for…
Does the OP ever post anywhere BUT the Pit? I don’t remember seeing her post anywhere else.
There are only, as of right now, 29 active threads in the Pit and you want to throw out more of them?
So only 10 or 12 threads will be on the page.
We’ve made the dope so ‘efficient’ to read that there isn’t anything worth reading.
Fuck the Rules. The first rule of the pit is that there are no rules.
Except for threats of violence.
And you must use a very descriptive thread title.
And no RO.
and you had better muther-fucking curse to make a dead pirate blush.
What’s wrong with them? College rants seems no different than any other pit thread. Why single it out? And people often rant/complain about things that happen to their friends/loved ones. What makes it mundane/pointless?
So fucking what. WTF does that have to do with anything? You are so transparent, hoping to start a pile on. :rolleyes:
Does anyone read the forum descriptions?
vs.
How does ‘College rants’ fit with "complaints and other discussion regarding adminstration of the SDMB?
And dead serious about it, too! Now, isn’t that just the cutest thing you ever did see?
In the past, when stickies have been unstickied, things go* very * bad.
yeah, cleanspotting is a very serious situation that must be avoided at all costs.
As with everything you have ever said on this board Carol, I couldn’t agree with you more. What a stupid cunting whore is the OP of that OP! Stupid bitch can’t even give one full-blown rant but has to break it up into mini ones! I’d like to fluff her in the ass for that shit.
Let’s me and you find out where the whore lives and kick her fucking ass.
Probably half your problem is that you’re parsing that as two clauses, when really as long as I’ve been here it’s been properly parsed as “complaints (of all kinds)” and “other discussion regarding administration of the SDMB (i.e, other discussion than what’s happening in ATMB)”
The other half of your problem is obvious to most readers, I think.
Wow, overreact much?
Oh God. Like Lynn Bodoni said, if you have a problem with certain threads, report 'em to the mods. I’ve reported at least two to Giraffe, and found with pleasure that they were moved into MPSIMS with alacrity. (Presumably not just on my say-so; though, ah, if only I had such power!)
In fairness, Guinastasia … would you really want her to? At least right now we have containment.
Sorry Klaatu, but the OP is a pretty consistent idiot who can inspire pile-ons all by her sweet little self. (And has, many a time.)
