I wouldn't moderate Spamhaul if I were a mod, there are plenty of other places that need attention and I've almost completely given up on Spamhaul improving at all with the mentality of 80% of the people that post here.

If you wouldn't moderate the spamhaul then why complain? I understand how you feel and that you want people to use common sense but it does get kinda redundant. A typical spamhaul thread is "Unfunny/funny original post, everyone whipping out their e-peens on how funny or unfunny someone is, someone complaining about how everyone needs to grow up a bit, e-peens are whipped out again for a bit longer then thread dies."

It seems as if there isn't one much can do except let people stir in their own flith sometimes. It's kinda better that it is done here rather then the general discussion or the real life areas.

I'm "complaining" because it's fucking irritating as shit how this board went from a cool place to chill and whip out a few jokes to "lol no i haet u im the best poster get out."

It's kinda like if Gaming Discussion went from "talk about games" to "everything becomes a Zelda topic."

Well good luck trying to change the spamhaul~

The problem is that a line is never drawn on what is funny, what is irritating, and what is just downright overboard. Now, for a place as lax as Spamhaul, making a rule probably isn't necessary. (It seemed like a good idea a few minutes ago, but now that I'm rethinking it...)

The forums I mod that have a spam board have stricter rules than this one. I'm not saying to make things stricter, but I would think the most optimal thing to do is for a mod to watch over the threads here and step in when things seem to get too carried away. For things as minimal as this, no official guideline needs to be put into place; a mod should just user his/her own judgment to tell when a thread is going off the deep end and say "okay guys, knock the shit off". You'd have a lot less threads crashing and burning if something as simple as this was done.

See, this makes a bit more sense, but it'd have to be a bit more lax. I MIGHT be up to doing this but I'd honestly rather moderate the rest of the board, unless Spamhaul got its shit together and went back to being cool.

Stooben Rooben to replace Koshesh as Spamhaul mod?

It does seem like he's got the stuff, but it probably won't happen for the sole reason that "he hasn't been around enough."

That, and Dazz is never online anymore. I've apparently been on the waiting list for like a week and that hasn't happened yet : |

I'm pretty honored that you'd even consider me for spam mod, especially since I've only been active here for...5 weeks?

But yeah, I doubt it'd happen because I'm still "the new guy".

I considered you because you seem to have your shit together more than Koshesh does.
Measurements of time are irrelevant to me, your being "the newbie" holds no sway.
Plus, I like you.

I am the funniest

You've said numerous times I'm allowed to do it because unlike other people I can actually pull it off without being horrendously unfunny and completely bias, right???

omg ryan what are you doing i literally just went over this please don't beat a dead horse just drop it

i already pooped in this topic enough

well yeah my bad

but i want to say meaningful stuff too :V

Like, I don't insult people to look funny, or cool, or because I have personal vendettas against them.

I insult posts when they are stupid, because it's what I do and I don't really care for idiocy.

See, it's not that I don't like vupersherk, or think he's a bad person, I just end up fighting him and Lunyka a lot because for some reason being retarded comes more frequently to them.

But I still love you all~!

And to think all this discussion started with one image...

But yeah, is it necessary to insult people to be cool? Goddamn. I don't even post here frequently and I've been seeing shit everywhere here. I know, it's spamhaul but this is getting WAY TOO fucking annoying...

Oh good, this isn't just vipershark arguing anymore there's actually relatively productive conversation going on here
