Dudes Are Paranoid And Over Dramatic At Times But We Have Literally SEEN With Our Own Eyes Other Forums Post Links To Specific Coli Threads On Some “Look At These fukking Guys”

If The Doors Here Werent Locked They’d Come Storming In

Back In The SOHH Days We’d Have AHH Dudes Coming In Droves When There Was An Issue

I Dunno About Having “Agents” Here Now But An Full Open Registration All Is Takes Is 1 Coli Thread To Pop Up On A Reddit Forum And It’s Gonna Be A Tsunami

So Yeah, Some Kind Of Restrictions Have To Be Set

That's what mods with actual powers are for.

 

[hotbeezie]

Make it so JBO is invite only

 

[Bossino]

On the real..

Idk what I would do without this forum

Shiiiiid yo life might be worse than mine

 

[Primetime21]

If ya'll open the site to registration, please understand that the shyt that gets said on here will get this place either bombarded by trolls OR even worse, the spotlight will be on this place...

Make a New Member area and make it so that you can't leave there until you have 100-500 posts

This is a good idea.

@Morethan1 i’m sure Brook has a plan but maybe you can edit the OP and aggregate the 5-10 best ideas gathered in this thread to pass on to him as well.

Nah a dap-free section is cool for genuine discourse, but people need to be able to gauge if they wildin, but #1 should of been a rule to start

I'm on board with this majority of the trolling, Worldstar, evil ass threads are made by posters in the red. Malcolmxxx and brothazay in particular. I got them ignored and their trash still shows up on the main page of TLR or sidebar

Don't forget @benjamin all wastes of bandwidth and oxygen

 

[Prince.Skeletor]

Most important suggestion

Make @Rhakim a mod

He deserves that role more than anyone.
I don’t agree with everything he says but I like his approach to communicate his disagreement with me as well as others.

Get ready for the cac infiltration.

Look at how many sleeper agents they had prepared prior to registrations being closed. Once that shyt opens up again the swarm will begin.

man seeing names just pop up outta nowhere that registered years ago but never posted

 

[SupremexKing]

If they are looking for some technical people to assist with shyt, I'm available. I would actually enjoy doing it as a learning experience and I enjoy that shyt legitimately. Plus I do SWE for living and so this is second nature to me to some extent.


If you see this zon, if there is a need for help in maintaining the site or perform routine updates and small changes, feel free to reach out with details. I'm actually looking for side projects to keep me sharp.

I second this. My background is more focused in cybersecurity and network hardening, but im certainly down to contribute, in any way I can.

Yup. on the ignored list too

Yeah considering how much spotlight was on the coli over the last 10yrs and the amount of visitors during those times



a new members section where new members can't participate in the current forum areas would be for the best.

SIMILAR SITUATION. I'm no damn Zuckerberg however I can lend my skills where needed. Brehs have been saying this for a minute. Let us assist. And speaking for myself, this isn't about usurping power from the current owners.

Love this idea. Newbies have to go undergo a probationary period and post a number of times to be eligible for the full site. Unless that troll has supreme long-game and focus, they'll get vetted out

 

[Yehuda]

That's what's up, I really just need to change the avi without doing all that shyt to the image and post without getting the internal server error message.

 

[ShaneTheRogue]

Yall gotta stop trying to control people because of their status-- you could've easily got a neg train on you for that co-worker fukkery thread you made and you'd be crying how you don't have the same privilege as everyone else.

If you want daps taken away then why even leave the reputation system? The same logic applies. And without daps the comments would be very boring. People like rewards and people like giving rewards.

Yeah and not having daps would empower trolls and spammers.

The type of posters who constantly post hot takes 24/7 would run the site basically. How many times has a big circle jerk thread with a handful of posters writing nonsense been shut down by 1 or 2 high dap post?

Well without that whoever has the time and endurance to post incessantly will determine the culture of the board.

And besides sometimes you want to cosign something without having to type "I agree" everytime.
