A lot of us might not care about slurpees...they don't have to click on this thread. They can read other threads. Those that do care, can click.

You don't have to continue to talk about the Devi situation, you don't had to read the thread even. It is a public forum, so like it or not people can and will continue to talk about the subject as long as it is relevant or until a moderator with a reason decided to lock it down. So far there is no reason to do so, and the whole Devi situation is still unfolding/ongoing. Don't worry though, it will naturally fizzle out when interest wanes or when the problem disappears. Until that happens, it's fair game dude.Chankgeez wrote:This is absolutely false. Yes, it's a public forum. I'm not trying to stop anyone from talking about something or anything for that matter.

Obviously, not everyone is going to share my views and I respect that. I just want my views known.

It works how it works which is as long as all you guys don't lose it at each other in a lord of the flies like way and everyone goes crying to Tom and PP and MM [dude why you never stop by?] and ruin their day then things run their corse.. although I am a bit miffed we have lost at least two members due to this thread….TheTransient wrote:Then I guess it stays open.Chankgeez wrote:TheTransient wrote:... or until a moderator with a reason decided to lock it down.That's not how ILF works.
And you don't have to get all upset because we'd rather talk about 7-11. Who the fuck said a thread had to stay on topic? You?

Furthermore, and again, a diary is not a conversation.
I don't actually mind it when it goes off topic. The point is you shouldn't "get all upset" when it actually is on topicTheTransient wrote:For the record I also have no objections to talk of slurpees or Aen's choice of undergarments. It does help lighted the mood a bit, and sometimes that is necessary.
Like I said earlier, those upper harmonics are grating and absolutely horrible; worst of all is that it sounds super basic at any other setting. However, I do have to admit that the graphic design game is on point.zzuFrepuS wrote:sounds like shit. never liked that dudes playing though.

The backstory may have been off, but I don't think the logic was. In any case, gordian knot is gone now. So that's that problem solved for you. Now this is no longer a "diary/blog/one-way conversation", the thread will be what it will be. Or wont.D.o.S. wrote:Obvs. you're not Cydonia. That's not really the point -- he was very anal about things going off topic, to put it mildly. The other point and I can't hammer this home enough -- there's no discussion to defend here. Seriously, it is/was a blog roll from someone who signed up after the Devi thread was made, is/was more or less exclusively a part of our community for the Devi thread (that much is/was clear), and obviously has some sort of weird preexisting relationship with Devi that is being furthered, in a one way conversation, and getting in the way of our slurpee discussion. Pointing that out should not elicit "wow you guys are so mean what the fuck?"
But I don't think you're trolling, though, I just think refusing to acknowledge what is, inarguably, a distinctly fucked up form of hijacking (as opposed to the benign kind that happens in like every thread here) because feelings might get hurt is silly.
And, also, this wasn't even a 'feelings hurt' level call to attention. This was downright polite.
