not me. taking spamhaul out of the forums was, is, and will be a terrible decision, not to say something that wont change anything at all with the rest of the forums.

Why is it a terrible decision?

We basically had two spamhauls so we got rid of the one where the terrible attitudes leaked out of and all the useful threads were moved to GD, the second spamhaul basically. The only difference is that GD has rules. Big woop, the "good" threads of the spamhaul could have also been posted in there too without issue.

I'm not too happy the Spam Haul is gone.

"Wait why? I thought you hate that stuff Koopaul?"

I do, but I was happy to see all that stuff cooped up in one place away from the rest of the board. I knew by having a Spam Haul certain people would be able to vent their craziness and stupidity there and act civil here.

Now I'm worried there will be trouble.

Deleting spamhaul won't necessarily solve attitude problems, but would anyone actually deny that having a subforum dedicated to everyone acting like jackasses would HELP attitude problems? =/

While that alone isn't gonna fix the issue, the staff here are already willing to try and fix it and hopefully you guys would be willing to change your attitudes too so we don't come off as breeming with assholishness to people on the outside looking in.

We dealt without spamhaul before. The worst that happened was a couple of strict mods and everyone hating them for it.

GD is now were you can post a lot of the mindless crazy stuff as long as you generally follow the rules and don't act like a douche in it. Relax Koopaul.

the only negative elements i've ever saw on spamhaul were basically when people took skypechat issues personally and vent them in public, and well

thats all.

Really? I mean Spamhaul had it's ups and it's downs but there are much more downs then just the whole Skypechat thing.

Yelling at Vipershark for saying anime, the whole "everyone is a bad poster" deal which happened more then one, spamhaul 2, times were people have just had a poor attitude, Skypekrew, Morgan and MFGG VS. Chad and Kori, and probably a few other situations I can't remember anymore.

Either way any of the so called "good" topics (I guess you can say the topics that have lasted a while.) could have been posted in GD without anyone getting in trouble too.

I personally don't mind not having Spamhaul, because we still have GD, and like everyone else said, it's almost the same without rules.

All Spamhaul really was was people trying to insult each other in public, trying to crack a joke almost every second, and useless flame wars between everyone.

By the way, what happened to Morgan?

morgan just sort of left

um
i don't want to say something incorrect, but

i /think/ most of the reason she joined was because at the time, she was tyvon's girlfriend
they've broken up since, and because tyvon has also left himself, there isn't much reason for her to stay either
or it
could just be that she wanted to leave

Attention everyone complaining about spamhaul being spread across the entire forum now that it's gone: Can you explain to me what these "warn" and "ban" features I have available to me are? I don't understand what they do.

to warn and ban people who break rules

oh


Deleting spamhaul really doesn't matter much because most of the people with ''''''attitude problems'''''' generally only stayed in spamhaul and with it gone the don't give a fuck anymore and they'll probably just leave.


And if they stay and break the rules and start shit the mods can warn/ban them

like they've been doing before

Oh look someone who ACTUALLY UNDERSTANDS IT

I actually understood it since the beginning.

Welp.

There goes 3/4 of all tSR thanks.

good job, KingPepe. we're all very proud of you.

All these comments saying this place sucks is making me feel really strange because I think this place is amazing compared to anywhere else I've been, especially school

I dunno if this means I'm unlucky or have low standards
