Stop the bitching about the mods

[MSUsousaphone]

i want to have rape sex with each and every mod here. in their poopcunt. while squirls shoot out of my dick and tinier squirrels shoot out of THEIR dicks in an Escher-esque recursive love filth pile.

But really....the mods here rock.

[theavondon]

BUT NOW WHERE WILL I GUIDE MY MISDIRECTED RAGE

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[behndy]

well yeah. i meant that as a compliment to their awesomeness.

on the realz - like 2 or 3 cats i didn't even catch that they were mods until they said something about that or i was looking at post counts or some other silly bullshit. just dooders that post in threads.

it's all cheesy and shit but i less than three ILF HARD. like, MURDER hard.

i'd rape a thousand squirrels to death to prove the point, inter-species VD be damned.

[Deltaphoenix]

Wow! Someone is going to sig the Squirrel shit

[ashdown]

to reiterate, poopcunt

yay ilf!

[Deltaphoenix]

Behndy must be the most sigged person on here.

[behndy]

i'm VERBOSE.

and my ADD lets me post a ridiculous amount. i had this account for a year or a year and a half before Erukus forced me to spend some time over here and realize the true awesomeness of ILF. i miss the little bugger. trying to make something of himself by paying attention at school........ psssssssshhhhht. what a maroon.

I don't think people were really bitching about the mods so much as making their opinions of censorship known.

While I love a good circlejerk I think ya'll are overreacting.

You have to look at what's being censored. Best as I can tell, there was some genuine butthurt over the fact that THAT word was being censored. THAT word, whenever it pops up, causes the drammerz and bullshit. It's doing it now, isn't it? So if one word has THAT much power,(whether we allow it to or ONE -just ONE forum member is truly offended by it), then why allow it? Pretty much everything else you'd never use while having dinner with your grandparents is fair game.
And I've seen posts recently that were editted because of THAT word where the OP was kind of "WTF?!" and getting a bit huffy about it. That counts as bitching. About a post that was moderated.

stoopid word killed my mother.

I HATE YOU PHANTOM SPACE GHOST WORD.

(she's alive and well)

i believe we're allowed to have differences of opinion, and my opinion remains that though the mods here are generally quite laissez-faire, it's still painfully lame in the 21st century to blank out (eyeroll) "the N word" or to change pronouns in a post so Devi Ever, of all people, won't have her feelings hurt. if, as the deconstructionists love to claim, words mean only what the user wishes them to mean, shut up with this BS already and leave people to talk, even if they express themselves in ways i wouldn't myself because my mother taught me to have better manners than that. the behavioral horse is already out of the gate, kids. and nobody has the right not to be offended, or not to have their precious wittle feelings hurt.

I believe people DO have the right not to be offended. I agree, you have the right to express your opinion. But I have the right to express mine, as I did in response to chumley's post. Difference is, though I disagreed with Chumley, I at least did it respectfully. If you wanna talk amongst yourselves without the Iron-fisted ILF Inquisition comin' down on you with the Velvet Hamster, do it via email. But the mods have made it abundantly clear that you ain't-a-gonna drop no n bombs here.

[behndy]

and i have zero problems with that. i'm with DubyaKitteh where i think it'a silly to give all that power to a word, but if that's how Mssr. Dalton wants his site run, that's how it's run.

seriously, y'all do a GREAT job by not doing much. i'm amazed that with the lack of restrictions peoples still get along so well here. i ennnnnnjoyyyy so many peoples up in har.

What is the hangup with this? Do we think this is some sort of Democratic Republic of ILF?

This is a forum,....and as it grows it's going to see all kinds of traffic from people from all walks of life and all sorts of sensitivities. And like it or not; for the youngins, this forum is going to set an example of what is acceptable behavior and frankly the N-bomb is unacceptable. I'm sorry if this ruffles anyone's feathers,...but seriously if you are white and want your ass beat,....drop the N-bomb around a group of black guys. The N-bomb is not fucking cool in any context; Full Stop.

The point is that this is probably the least totalitarian gear forum on the internet and again,...the mods have respectfully asked that we refrain from cultural, racial, gender and sexual insensitivity. I don't think that's too much to ask that we abide by those wishes.

I'm feeling pretty chill, but it is annoying when people start talking shit about the modding here, like there's some Orwellian bullshit going on, when this is one of the most loosely modded gear forums I know of. There are f-words in posts and subjects, nudity, graphic sexual language, drug discussion...

Pretty much the only things not allowed are racist posts, graphic porn, n-words, insults based on sexuality, and any post that one of the mods decides violates ILF's main rule: "Don't be an asshole." (Though most of those are left in, if only so other people notice the asshole.)

If you think ILF--which is almost unmodded--is overmodded...

Yes we are giving the word the power and I can get next to the silliness of being offended by a word,....but you can't control what people are going to be offended by,...so what are you gonna do? Be respectful? Or violate the number one rule of ILF?

The N-Bomb has no place on ILF,....if you don't like it,...go find yourself some racist; white supremest forum where hateful ignorant language is accepted and encouraged.
