Basically anything would go except for pornography or extreme images?

Meh, whatever.
I vote no.
'Seems reject rodeo, firewalkers and guest posting are more or less the same thing, so they should be merged into one subforum instead of 3. But if the mods still want the 3 separate divisions then make them as 3 separate threads within the merged subforum. This would free up space in the forum for other endeavors.
There's too many subforums too similar to one another and this makes the forum
sprawl too much.

I thought it already was a "free for all" of sorts.
I was under the impression that this sub forum was a place to dump unruly posters that either could not abide by the rules or had become a chronic problem. It was also my impression that any poster who was corralled in here could do as they please to a limited extent anyway.
Truth be told, unless you have been labeled a forum criminal nuisance, I have no idea why anyone would even want to post in this sub. Voluntarily posting in this forum is counter to it's purpose. ac_dunno

we had a basement at BF as well. it was supposed to be for punishment also. the problem was that most ppl chose to be down there arguing about ridiculous shit and forgot that there was a decent forum up top.... alot of ppl online just enjoy the chaos. thats all there is to it....

I know, some people just need to fill their time online with butt hurt drama and acrimony. Those are the kind that need to kept in a place like this. We had one particular Aussie that was like that until we got rid of her/his unnecessary dribble.
Now he/she just parks it's full of shit, pseudo intellectual, ass in VF, crying about how badly he/she was treated and how awful we are over here at every chance it gets. It also still lurks here almost daily despite the fact that it claims to be completely done with this place. :laugh3:

Forums have changed a lot. It's difficult if not impossible in late 2015 to keep a large group of like minded people together and posting regularly. To survive in the Twitter age and even grow a bit, allowing people and their posts you don't like to post at least in a segregated area might be the only way.
I don't subscribe to this attitude that you need to allow people to shit up your board to stay going. Those left are tired of having to wade through so much shit just to find a decent conversation.
I agree with having a space where things can get a little more wild but I don't believe in having some disgusting free for all. Not only is it gross, there are legal implications to not moderating certain garbage.
Quote from: "Fashionista"
I'm new here. So far everything seems as it should for a group of posters on the internet who probably will never meet me in person, or anyone else here. Brings the best and worst out in people. Please please. No need to read anything into this. It's as literal as I thought it. No hidden meaning. OK? No need to change anything in my opinion.

I thought Joe's idea was interesting. Combine the three threads and let posters do as they please.
So you're okay with racist/hate speech garbage? Posters calling others things like "cunt", "faggot", etc? Constant attacks on posters? Talk about poo and what it looks and smells like?
Quote from: "RW"
When have I ever posted anything like that? I am interested in issues and I ignore that noise.
I'm saying that is what this subforum will become if we just let it ride as is being proposed.
I know you're not that kind of poster silly billy!
Quote from: "RW"

I'm only saying that if you allowed one section to post as they wish, it might mean increased traffic. Let's face it, some people like the mindless stuff. You would still have the main board and politics for the adult posters.
Why do we want to encourage a bunch of fuck sticks to come and post shit? I don't understand the rationale behind it.
Quote from: "RW"
If you attract pond slime, it will also mean some gems. An example of that is shin. The best part is you can fence off the special needs kids.
But we don't allow the slime and we still get to hang with shin on occasion....
Quote from: "RW"
There are other shins out there. But, they want places with traffic.
Do not misunderstand me. My posts in a free for all rr would be few and far between.
I'm just trying to understand why we should allow garbage as a means of gaining traffic. It feels like selling out to me.
Once you let the rats in, it's not easy to keep them in their corner.

The other thing is that Politics and Extremism are more or less the same topic.
So instead of 7 sub-forums at most you should have is around 4.
But if you decided to make the money thread into a sub-forum, it would make it 5.
Personally, I think the one about money and economics should be a separate sub-forum unto itself.
It would give it greater flow. How about making seoulbro the mod of that one?
Seems there's too much waste of space in this forum.
Just my three pence tho'.

If posters want to post on a free for all site they can go post on Evs Toilet Forum.

And get a fucken Avatar already ffs.
merry fucken xmas
Dinky Diana, odinson, scouse and mel gibson should all be allowed to post freely in this section. I also agree with Joe that some of these subs should be merged.
Why? and don't say because of traffic. I want to know why you think we should allow people who want to act like idiots post here.

And good luck getting RW to agree to that.
I'm a reasonable human. Give me a good reason and I'll consider it. I might even accept it.
Quote from: "RW"
If I can offer my two bits, odinson is full of shit. So is that Dinky guy.
So why should they post here?
Quote from: "RW"
we think alike ms egghead.
Okay so I'm waiting to hear from those who think they should. Fash? Seoul?

What are you talking about. Frank is a good guy. I do not get the catholic stuff, but who cares.
Quote from: "RW"
I think I have made my position clear. If you are going to have a reject rodeo, it should be open to all rejects and that includes dd, odinson, scouse and mel.
I think most people have the right to post here but when it comes to some, well not so much. Odi and Mel have never bothered me personally although some stuff they say is pretty bad. That dinky guy, I don't know much about except he likes to use voice changers and whine about us on that other place. I thought reject rodeo was kind of like a time out box?

I understand your position. What I'm asking is why we shouldn't be selective in who posts here? You said yourself that you don't think much of VF - a forum that is not very moderated and allows people like Odi, Mel, etc to post freely. Why would you want to bring that here?
Quote from: "GrAnnie"
Dinky Di guy and odinson are so full of shit they stink. Mel, I don't know. Is scouse perma banned too?
Dinky isn't that bad. He's just a troll. Mel CAN be a decent poster when he wants to be, he just doesn't want to very often. SCOUSE came to cause shit for fun. If I had my way, Odinson would never post on this board ever again.
I don't know scouse, I haven't had any posting interaction with him yet. I haven't with dinky either so I dunno why he/she posted one of my comments here to over on toilet forum, but whatever...
Quote from: "RW"
I kinda like Mel. It's too bad, but it seems his life is spinning out of control.
He has his moments but they were getting fewer and farther between. :(
Quote from: "RW"
His life is falling apart. That scouse guy is not quite as idiotic over there as he is here.
I feel bad for Mel in a way but he did let this take him down. Everyone has heart aches, but come on he just won't let go. Everyone has given him a ton of advice but he's a stubborn one.
Quote from: "GrAnnie"
That break up triggered something that was just under the surface all the time.
Rejection and abandonment can do a number on people.
Quote from: "GrAnnie"
Yeah, especially people who have mental health problems in the first place.
And that's why I feel bad for him, mental illness is a terrible demon.
Quote from: "GrAnnie"
Absolutely and I want to see the guy get the help he needs. See, I do not put him in the same reject pile as oddstain or Freud. Their entire lives are trolling, but Mel has a legitimate problem.
Mel has explained the reason why he is the way he is, the others we have to just guess.
Quote from: "GrAnnie"
They are attention hos with no lives. No guessing about it.
Well, they have a life now! At the toilet forum! lolol
Quote from: "GrAnnie"
They are there all day long too.
Well someone needs to keep filling it with shit!
Oh please ladies. Mel only comes here when he gets banned from VF.
Quote from: "GrAnnie"
It was a decent forum when I joined there five years ago. Old evs didn't interfere with the mods and we had some lively discussions. That's all gone now as are almost all the good posters. It's just a troll forum for over the hill wankers with too much time on their hands.
Quote from: "RW"
I know, but I still kinda like him.
I kind of like him too in a creepy salt and pepper kind of way....Actually he's always been very nice to me.
Quote from: "GrAnnie"
I would not hide his posts here as it is now.

Yes , lets let him out so he can call everyone cunts and faggots and cock suckers then spam the board with pictures of his blood soaked toilet paper from his ass and in the toilet or some guy opening his ass up so you can see directly down his asshole and a few others i wont mention. Does that sound like a good poster???
Im getting really fed up of this when you all say that piece of shit is or can be a good poster. Were you HERE watching his bullshit, the bullshit that I had to remove or his 57 alt members he made in one night so he can spam the board??? NO YOU WERE NOT I WAS. So when you want to say that he CAN BE OR WAS a good poster lets reflect back on this little tid bit okay?
He was removed for a reason just like Dinky and Scouse.
I all so want to add, RW gave him a chance to "be a nice poster" he lasted 1 day.
Want me to go on or do we get it yet?
I second keeper.....
Mel is a self absorbed, piece of shit, loser.
His presence on any forum is a sign that the place is a dump. He is one of those mentally deranged slobs that can and never will be rehabed into a human being. I don't care how many kind words you have for him, he's like a rabid dog. :negative:

VF is not for me because it is a troll forum. We have a troll section which I think is a good idea, but the trolls are banned from using it. That seems rather pointless to me.
