THINK OF FUN THINGS WE CAN DO WITH THE BOARD

[Chojin]

http://www.errormacro.com/images/2006/03/linkfaces.JPG

In all seriousness - reading over the boards recently, someone asked what the difference was these days between i-mockery and the various hellholes of the internet, and I'm honestly hard-pressed to offer a distinction.

So, I would like to open the floor to suggestions on how we can improve the boards.

And use your inside voice, because I will be heavily moderating this thread.

*POSITIVE VIBES.

[Tadao]

Where things better when the Mock Wars forum was open?

[Guitar Woman]

If you're having trouble telling I-Mock apart from the rest of the internet, look at three or four threads on the Articles Discussion forum.

[Guitar Woman]

also unlock the chatroom thread you bastard

[Chojin]

NOT UNTIL WE GET SOME DISCUSSION GOING ON IN HERE

Consider the chatroom RANSOMED.

[Dr. Boogie]

That thread is the safety valve that keeps the boards from reaching critical lame. We need it!

[MetalMilitia]

Unlock the chat room thread, man. You're scaring me.

But in all seriousness while I've not been here for as long as some other people I'd say that the majority of the original posters which made this forum what it was back in the day have long since stopped posting for various reasons and as such it's unlikely you ever COULD get back the uniqueness of i-mockery as it was.
Which isn't to say the forum is now worthless. I've been through a ton of forums in the three years I've been posting here and yet despite probably getting the harshest reception here of all the boards I've signed up to over the years this is the one I've stuck with.

The thing which sets this place apart from the other hellholes is that everyone is quite concious of avoiding 'net clichés and repetition, which are the worst things about the 'net.
It almost goes too far sometimes with most members being terrified of admitting to liking any current internet fad for fear of being ousted from the forum forever for being to mainstream in their e-comedy taste. But I think it's better this way than the other forums I've been on were posting "FTW!!!11" is considered a constructive comment.

[Guitar Woman]

again, see the Article Discussion forum

[Chojin]

maybe we just need to posse up and harass those people instead.

[Zomboid]

I think that maybe putting an end to shit like "THIS THREAD IS NOW ABOUT HOT GUYS WHO WE WANT TO FUCK" might cut down on the random pictures, hilarious captions, and general derailing of regular discussions. Also, maybe stop allowing random pictures of 15 year old girls with photoshopped jizz all over their face (I'm looking at you, liquid).

In general, it seems like the boards used to offer more in the way of decent threads because they didn't get filled with all of the 4chan type shit.

Of course, I guess we can just wait until the other 3 out of 10 posts are variations of "i like/hate him/her/it ;< :mario."

[Guitar Woman]

None of you have ever been to 4chan

[Dr. Boogie]

Nah, it's pretty similar to the 4chan I remember.

[Zomboid]

I've seen enough to know that the asinine shit you and your ilk keep posting isn't exactly too far off.

;<
Edit: I think that a place to dump all the shit posts is great. Unfortunately, the kind of stupidity that thrives in the chat room thread is starting to seep out into the other forums.

[Guitar Woman]

my ILK, huh

[MetalMilitia]

stop allowing random pictures of 15 year old girls with photoshopped jizz all over their face (I'm looking at you, liquid).

Yeah seriously that picture in the "what are you listening to thread" was borderline kiddy-porn. I couldn't see any humour in it whatsoever, and I dare say neither would any of of colleagues had I opened that thread at work as I often do.

I don't think people should be able to post stuff like that or this place will end up like those chan sites that are all about teenagers laughing at how outrageous they're being in the Internet.

[Chojin]

I think that maybe putting an end to shit like "THIS THREAD IS NOW ABOUT HOT GUYS WHO WE WANT TO FUCK" might cut down on the random pictures, hilarious captions, and general derailing of regular discussions.

What was that thread even about before that? And how many pictures were posted since then? Three?

Of course, I guess we can just wait until the other 3 out of 10 posts are variations of "i like/hate him/her/it ;< :mario."

Can you explain what you're talking about here? To be frank, most of the trolling I've witnessed lately has come from you.

[Tadao]

What sets this place apart from the rest (for me), is that a lot of intelligent flamers post here. This was the only place of worth for a good argument. You can't get that at 4chan, etc... Yes, I love arguing on the internet. I think everyone here does. Why else would we come here? All humor is insulting. I-Mockery is the highest caliber of insult available. Perhaps all the comparing needs to be flipped. They need to be compared to you.

Perhaps mocking forum users is not the way to go anymore. That would be sad. In my parts of the internet you were held as gods. I don't know why you took away the mock wars forum, I came back right as you closed it. I came here for just that reason. I can easily turn my mock off and be a productive poster, but I don't think people come here for that.

I guess the question is, what would you like? I know it's not an easy question and that this thread is probably created to find what is bugging you. I hope you find it.

[Guitar Woman]

I'd suggest telling Zomboid to get fucked, but now that every post he makes consists of LOL SPLATTERHOUSE MASS EFFECT ZOMBIES ATE MY NEIGHBORS GW YOU ARE A FAG AND SO IS EVERYONE ELSE WHO POSTS HERE EXCEPT ME AND SAM AND MATTJACK WHO I PLAY XBOX LIVE WITH LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THAT there's not much to gain

[Guitar Woman]

by ignoring him, that is

problem solved!

[Guitar Woman]

I mean, not ignroing him.

shut up.

[Chojin]

I wouldn't have a problem with the board becoming an intelligent flaming forum, but that's not really what I'm seeing go on lately. There's really a whole lot of nothing going on. Not even mocking.

Mock wars was closed because that forum was god awful. You never really needed permission to make fun of people in any forum, anyway.

[Zomboid]

I don't know what it was about before. I can't remember that part. What I do remember is opening it up to see you mentioning how emo guys are hot, followed by posting and commenting on a few pictures. Oh, and at some point the title of the thread changed to something about cock sucking. So, yeah. Good work.

I've been trolling? You fucking ASK for me to comment on something when you post "GEE I CAN'T BELIEVE WE HAVE A WII THREAD WHERE ZOMBOID HASN'T COMMENTED". Not to mention the fact that you went around in 3 or 4 other threads and made similar comments.

I really don't give a fuck if you want to have your ass pumped by mario. What annoys me is your antagonistic fanboy shit going into multiple threads and then trying to claim that I'm trolling.

[Guitar Woman]

FUCK YOU GUYS YOU FUCKING FANBOY PRICKS YOU WANT TO GET ASSFUCKED BY NINTENDO CHARACTERS

I'M NOT A TROLL BTW

[Chojin]

Calm down, dearest.

I am honestly trying to understand what you're talking about, here. Does me talking about emo boys make you uncomfortable? Is it really such a problem to have upset you so badly?

And no, I did not ask you to comment on Tadao's Wii thread. Nor did I ask for your subsequent replies to it and the deliberate derailing of the thread thereof.

Can you show me how you came to these conclusions? Maybe I'm missing something.

[Zomboid]

:lol Anytime anyone has an opinion that goes against your love for wii and mario strikers you go into defence mode and start bashing. That's not us. You ask for it and then cry until chojin shows up.

[Tadao]

Maybe it's not the new people that are the problem here. Maybe it's the old issues that have never been resolved.

[Guitar Woman]

Sorry for SINGLING YOU OUT ZOMBOID, would you like to do some cartoon amalgams with me to make up

[MetalMilitia]

It seems most of the best "mockers" are just bored of it because they've already seen the stereotypical annoying noobie poster a thousand times before and there are only so many ways of saying "You're fucking stupid. Shut up".

I also think that there aren't many arguments any more because the majority of the regular posters are all in the same clique that socialise outside of the forum (though games and such) and calling anyone out will probably turn a lot of people against you.

[Dr. Boogie]

I really think MM has nailed the problem down.

[Chojin]

I do hope that reply isn't all we're going to get out of Zomboid. To clarify, that post was a request for you to reply.

Also MM, I don't really think there are too many rough-and-tumble internet gangs are on the boards anymore. Only two really come to mind.

Maybe that's only because I haven't been intimidated by anyone on this forum for about 7 years, though.

[Zomboid]

Calm down, dearest.

Can you show me how you came to these conclusions? Maybe I'm missing something.

For tadao's thread, you make a comment like "HEY WHERE IS ZOMBOID TO TALK ABOUT HOW THE WII SUCKS?" and I reply that maybe he should just go to the gym. Then it turns into the usual back and forth shit. Yeah, you didn't have a hand in that one.

A bit before that you went into 2 or 3 other threads and posted variations of This thread probably reminds Zomboid of why he hates the Wii.So again, yeah, you're not antagonistic at all.

I WOULD'VE REPLIED SOONER BUT I LIKE TO SMOKE

[MetalMilitia]

Am I the only one that read all of GW and Zomboid's posts in this thread and still have no idea what they're talking about? :/

[Zomboid]

Pretend that we're cats and you'll probably understand it a bit better.

[Dr. Boogie]

Maybe that's only because I haven't been intimidated by anyone on this forum for about 7 years, though.

You were intimidated by someone on the boards?

[Sam]

If I knew I was in a gang I would have started wearing gang colors.

AND ALSO I AM NAMING MY GANG "THE SUPER SMASH BROTHERS"

[Chojin]

The latter was in response to some shenanigans you pulled in the smash bros thread. I'm not claiming that I have absolutely no part in arguments around here, but I do claim that you create and escalate those arguments to the point that it kills threads. If I recall, you were banned for doing it before.

And in my opinion, saying "a whole 8 posts in a wii thread without zomboid" isn't out of line. Consider:
1. You seem to seek out and troll any and all Wii threads on the forum
2. You came in immediately after that
3. Did you really consider that an invitation? Do you have absolutely no self-control?

[Zomboid]

We need to get our banners ready. I miss the imock starcraft games :(

[Tadao]

So what I'm reading here is that the reason why I-Mockery has become a 4chan fest is because of Nintendo Wii.

[Zomboid]

If the latter was in response to something in a different thread, keep it in the other fucking thread. Your petty little nintendo fueled rage against me doesn't need to go all over the boards.

1 - I don't seek out and troll threads. In the smash bros thread I made both positive and negative comments and it just escalated, as usual. Oh, and I think you were a part of that one, too!

2 - I'd been reading it and just hadn't made a comment until that point.

3 - I was thinking what I posted the entire time, but yeah, to me that was an invitation to go and say what I said, which was that he should seek alternative methods of exercise.

[Chojin]

Yeah, really. Back on topic.

*And Zomboid, I will reiterate that we don't need to hear about how much you hate the Wii in every Wii thread. No one asked you to post there. Seriously. I made a joke, there was no call to defend your honor.

I would offer to stay out of 360/PS3 threads in return, but I haven't been doing anything like that. Again, use some self-control. Someone mentioning your name in a thread is not a license for you to turn it to shit.

And that will be my last post on this topic.

[Zomboid]

Alrighty. How bout mods be objective and just close/move threads that are getting way the fuck off track. Oh, and not go around inciting RIOTS! :O

[Guitar Woman]

THIS IS A WITCH HUNT

[MetalMilitia]

It seemed like most of the mockwars threads were just arguments from other threads which were cut out and moved there. Perhaps that should come back to keep discussion threads on topic but allowing the forum to live up to the "mockery" part of its name.

[Tadao]

I feel like creating a thread just to call someone out sometimes, I haven't done that though because I know it would be closed in minutes, or that was the impression I got. I would love a place just to be a stupid idiot on this board and not cause difficulty for others trying to talk about what they enjoy.

[Chojin]

MM:

The thing is, nothing good ever came of those threads afterwards anyway. At least when we merge them into chat, it makes one person happy.

That person being pub.

[Chojin]

Tadao:

As far as I'm concerned, you can call someone out in one thread if you're being classy or at least funny about it. And that thread would go in general blabber. I don't think the rules specifically state that you can do that, but there's a reason it says to not follow people around while harassing them and not just "don't harass anybody ever".

[Guitar Woman]

The very fact that it boils your wii fanboy blood is enough reason for me to gripe about it ;< xoxoxoxoxoxox


I'm not trolling, honest!

[Guitar Woman]

This sort of shit is rampant on /v/, come to think of it, so if anyone is perpetuating 4chan bullshit here, it's Zomboid.

[Chojin]

http://umthumbs.gametrailers.com/moses/usermoviethumbs/um_104186-102694-Intro-1179199693_thumb4.jpg

enough

THINGS WE CAN DO TO MAKE THE BOARD BETTER. THINK!

[Zomboid]

Yeah, you tried to make that argument before. It was shit then and it's shit now. Me saying why the wii sucks in a post about a specific game is not the same as you posting all the shit that you do. That comment was after you and chojin kept up with your "NO, THE WII IS AWSUM! REALLY! IT IS!" over and over. If it were able to be a civil argument about the system's merits and it's negative qualities, that'd be just fine by me. But as I said, you're fanboys and you can't do that.

[Chojin]

Post examples or shut up. We're moving on.

[Zomboid]

SERIOUS IDEA - Are we able to initiate the kind of thing they have for new members on gamefaqs? IE - Limit number of posts per day for new users? Not allowing them to make threads would probably cut down on some spam bot posts too.

Edit - eat a dick.

[Fathom Zero]

Text should be lime green and flash into a brighter green intermittently.

By the way Zomboid, I found that system very unfriendly and created a feeling of superiority in those who didn't deserve it. Yeah, you may be a vet, but you still suck as much as the guy that joined two days ago.

[Chojin]

the problem with a post limit on new members is that it would only affect the people that we'd ban for doing that in the first place. not being able to make new threads is a thought, but is that really a problem we're having?

[Tadao]

Tadao:

What happened was that rules are one thing, the collective is the another. When a lot of us arrive, we tend to watch how people are and base what we do on your examples. I haven't seen a calling out thread since I've been here, so I didn't create one. I noticed you guys wait till someone does something really stupid and then smack them in that thread. So I did likewise. This is your home and I'm a guest. I follow your examples. I LEARNED IT FROM YOU DAD! i LEARNED IT FROM YOU!

Also I think Rogs treat the new people nice was the worst idea he could have come up with. Did any new poster really think they were gonna get a comfy chair?

[Fathom Zero]

the problem with a post limit on new members is that it would only affect the people that we'd ban for doing that in the first place. not being able to make new threads is a thought, but is that really a problem we're having?

It's more just a general inaneness that plagues posts.

[Zomboid]

By the way Zomboid, I found that system very unfriendly and created a feeling of superiority in those who didn't deserve it. Yeah, you may be a vet, but you still suck as much as the guy that joined two days ago.
I'm pretty sure they just have it so that new members don't go around spamming the fuck out of the place, which would happen even more frequently there. If someone feels superior for being able to post more than someone else, that's their own fault and I think that they'd be called on it here.

the problem with a post limit on new members is that it would only affect the people that we'd ban for doing that in the first place. not being able to make new threads is a thought, but is that really a problem we're having?
The thread thing isn't a huge problem, no. It happens every now and then but it's nothing that needs SWIFT ACTION or anything.

I think if new members had their posts limited, they'd maybe realize that we don't want them running around posting everywhere. Instead of getting banned, they might just turn into posters capable of contributing something worthwhile every now and then.

[Guitar Woman]

wait, what obnoxious new members?

Xydexx has been the only one I've noticed in two months.

[Emu]

I don't mind Xydexx. :\

[Girl Drink Drunk]

http://www.i-mockery.com/forum/showthread.php?t=69699240 >:

[Chojin]

yeah, we had a bunch when the site was redesigned, but i really don't think a handful of new people every month are at the root of all our ails.

I created this thread not so much to focus on what we or other people are doing wrong. I want ideas on what we could be doing additional to create value-added synergies.

[Fathom Zero]

Well then I really don't know what you want from people, other than flay idiots.

[Tadao]

Can I point out that the claim of 4chanery was directed at the main sites articles?

[Emu]

The thing is though I'm not really sure what's wrong with the forums. I have an overarching sense that something is different about them as compared to, say, 3 years ago. And things haven't seemed stagnant lately. But I can't quite pinpoint a specific cause.

[Fathom Zero]

I haven't seen many people being douchebags to one another, just the same old same old.

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Mabye we all just need to take a break from this forum, if the vets and valued regulars are starting to getting burned out by dealing by idiotic posters, I donno.

[Fathom Zero]

Maybe moderator status should be handed over to me because I feel excellent about everything.

[Emu]

I'm probably going to get shot for this, but I'd like the forums to work more like SomethingAwful's, where posters are put on probation for making overtly obnoxious jokes and generally humiliated publicly.

[Chojin]

for the record, i still have no idea who you are, GDD.

I will change the thread title to be more POSITIVE so you fuckers can be more POSITIVE.

Maybe we could have a sack race.

[Guitar Woman]

He's Sniperwulf, I think?

[WhiteRat]

I'm probably going to get shot for this, but I'd like the forums to work more like SomethingAwful's, where posters are put on probation for making overtly obnoxious jokes and generally humiliated publicly.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Fuck it, let's get burned together!

[Esuohlim]

I feel that the overall mood of the forums has changed drastically as of late, and I don't want to necessarily put the blame on the whole "being complete jerks to new people drives away business so stop being complete jerks to new people unless they really deserve it" imposition put forth after all the major site changes, but I was never too keen on that idea in the first place. When brand new people used to post threads, even if they were perfectly legitimate, they would often get derailed immediately and usually with hilarious results. Nowadays threads like those get taken seriously and are therefore not as fun.

That's not to say some current people don't need a kick in the ass every once in a while either. As a specific example, saying something like "I'm glad Cartoon Network brought back Mikaymoyi, this makes up for Chooky Chokey Sami Whammy" or a thousand "Haves you know I can score big time buds you think Pubs I am an high as kites now :420" used to elicit ridicule, and now it will most likely get ignored. I don't know, everyone just seems more apathetic about mocking other people, and when people don't get adequately mocked for the stupid shit they do they eventually think that said stupid shit is acceptable.

And I don't mean to pick on GW specifically, but a lot of what he posts seems to only be appreciated by Chojin and vice versa. Sometimes it just seems like you two have ongoing inside jokes that nobody gets. This is of course a personal opinion since I'm not too into video games and a whole lot of it goes over my head. It might not for most people, but this is just what I notice.

[Fathom Zero]

Yeah! But what about people in wheelchairs? I'd want to sack race if I was in a wheelchair.

[Chojin]

emu, can you explain how the probation system works? I have a somethingawful account, but I know better than to try to get a straight answer out of any of them.

and milhouse it isn't so much an inside joke thing that I have going with GW as it is youtube poop jokes, which I can understand if no one else here gets that sort of thing. in my circle of friends in maryland we're constantly making youtube poop jokes so I guess it bleeds heavily into my online writings.

[Girl Drink Drunk]

He's Sniperwulf, I think?
Bingo.

[Fathom Zero]

Make a couple dick jokes and experiment that way.

[Esuohlim]

The thing is though I'm not really sure what's wrong with the forums. I have an overarching sense that something is different about them as compared to, say, 3 years ago. And things haven't seemed stagnant lately. But I can't quite pinpoint a specific cause.

This is spot on, actually. I feel exactly the same way.

[Zomboid]

And I don't mean to pick on GW specifically, but a lot of what he posts seems to only be appreciated by Chojin and vice versa. Sometimes it just seems like you two have ongoing inside jokes that nobody gets. This is of course a personal opinion since I'm not too into video games and a whole lot of it goes over my head. It might not for most people, but this is just what I notice.
I agree with that but I think that the same thing can be said for a few other couples or groups as well. It's like 3-6 people are always replying back and forth and there's not a whole lot of times where the rest of the members want to/are able to join in the discussion, if you can call it that.

[Fathom Zero]

You guys are bringing down my mojo. Think Positive!

http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/1948/wwe1088lyl7.jpg

By the way, the Xy-guy is AOK in my book.

[WhiteRat]

emu, can you explain how the probation system works? I have a somethingawful account, but I know better than to try to get a straight answer out of any of them.

It's pretty simple actually. Internet Cliches, extremely low content posts that add nothing to the discussion, memes, Chuck Norris shit, general thread shitting, etc. are severely frowned upon. Users are strongly recommended to read the rules of the forums which pretty clearly spell out what's acceptable and what's not. Those that are too stupid to read the rules or decided to ignore them find themselves locked out from posting for a random number of hours (mod's discretion).

I read SA regularly, and I feel that they have the best managed forums that i've ever seen but the 100,000+ users makes for one huge community. It's easy to get lost amongst the crowd.

To me, I-mockery is a bastard cousin of SA that refuses to learn that sticking keys in electrical outlets is not a good idea.

EDIT: This request will most likely get wall hacked to death but a Sports forum would be dandy.

[Emu]

emu, can you explain how the probation system works? I have a somethingawful account, but I know better than to try to get a straight answer out of any of them.

Let's say there's a post by someone asking what this strange lump on their foot is and they have pictures. Let's say I respond to that picture with

KILL IT WITH FIRE

or something equally lame. A mod sees it and then the post is stamped with

(USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

and then my avatar is changed to a kitten in a jail cell and my title says I can't post for X hours.

I'm not saying we have to do exactly that but probations for stupidity is something I'd like to see.

[Guitar Woman]

Careful, 4chan does that! The last thing we men with beards want is 4chan faggotry!

[sspadowsky]

Chojin, just go on a scorched-earth banning spree.

[WhiteRat]

Careful, 4chan does that! The last thing we men with beards want is 4chan faggotry!

What reason would 4chan ever have to probate someone?

[Guitar Woman]

What reason would 4chan ever have to probate someone?
Well, there are worksafe boards, and if a mod catches childporn and the like it's usually an instant ban.

There are other rules too, but you don't care.

[Zomboid]

It's a good idea, but who's judging the posts? Take for example what milhouse said about chojin and gw and their inside jokes.

[Pub Lover]

More word filters. Can we get fag, gay & cock penis blocked? They are said way too much around here.

By me.

And it isn't funny.

[Guitar Woman]

Obviously Zomboid is the only logical choice, I nominate him.

[Girl Drink Drunk]

I think, as pointed out by MM, many posters have just become sick of dealing with each new wave of idiots andor posters that think being zany and totally random makes them the shit. After a while it gets old and people just burn out or lose interest. After about 8 or so years, things are bound to change and people will come and go for various reasons. I can`t imagine the status quo remaining the same for that long with all the gradual wear and tear going on. Some new rules on regulating noob idiocy would be nice, but mabye we also need to realize that we can't control all aspects of the forum.

[Tadao]

Here is something that might be fun to do.

Let's say gangs are formed. Perhaps 4 of them. You could assign 4 leaders and people could request to join or be invited. You should try to get noobs to join.

Now each gang would have their own means of chat (like you used to do with code).

Then you set up a place in which gangs can make everyone laugh.

Now here is the reason why I think it could make a dent in improving the boards. It promotes team work, you would be able to teach noobs the 9 ways of funny, it promotes competition (who's gang is the funniest.), people who never got along (if accepted into the same gang) might form a bond, you know some real funny things are gonna happen.

[Fathom Zero]

We could kill the blacks! :lol

/jk

[Esuohlim]

I think this uncomfortable tension is just the shot in the arm needed actually

[Chojin]

great! now we can get back to posting about how much we all love gay porn.

tadao, that sounds like an interesting concept, but I think some people would just complain about their teammates rather than try to improve them for the good of SOCIETY.

[Chojin]

as for the probation idea, i could create another tier of members that can dish out INFRACTIONS and have the numbers actually mean something. So if someone gets 10 infractions, they get banned for a day or something.

[Esuohlim]

tadao, that sounds like an interesting concept, but I think some people would just complain about their teammates rather than try to improve them for the good of SOCIETY.

Plus Pub would be picked last and that would just be a nail in the coffin for whatever little self-esteem he has left :(

[Girl Drink Drunk]

That sounds interesting. Perhaps we could nominate and vote on some members that have been here for a while and would be approved by the staff and regular members.

[Chojin]

i still have no idea who you are

[Fathom Zero]

I've already got three. Do they count?

[Xydexx]

It's pretty simple actually. Internet Cliches, extremely low content posts that add nothing to the discussion, memes, Chuck Norris shit, general thread shitting, etc. are severely frowned upon.
True. I heard through the grapevine that even threads mocking furries are passé there these days. OTOH, these days only idiots hate furries.

I think it's because the folks at Something Awful finally realized that just because something is funny once doesn't mean repeating it a thousand times makes it a thousand times funny.

Y'all could learn a lot from them.

Or not. :)

[Chojin]

What do furries have to do with this thread.

[Emu]

They define our existence as internet mockers.

[Zomboid]

I still don't know how an internet celebrity like that ended up here :(

[executioneer]

go ride your bike, xaxxon

[Esuohlim]

Girl Drink Drunk is Sniperwulf

And cork it, Xydexx

[Chojin]

Oh. Why did he/she change his/her/its name ;<

[Girl Drink Drunk]

I got sick of using that name for forums, and I'm a guy.

[Mockery]

This thread is tops and I think we've solved all the issues that everybody has with the forums and we should all now look towards the future with hope and wonder!

[Chojin]

then why do you have 'girl' in your name

who would DO such a thing

[Fathom Zero]

[Girl Drink Drunk]

For anyone that was confused, I never (intentionally) tried to mislead anyone with the two names. I got Sniperwulf from a friend, and Girl Drink Drunk is from this Kid's in the Hall Skit about a (get this) male alcoholic that likes girl drinks. Basically, I just assumed people would figure out I was a guy in little time, and wasn't trying to pull some Guitar Woman-esque shit.

[Esuohlim]

DON'T WORRY I KNEW YOU WERE A GUY BECAUSE WE'RE BEST FACEBOOK FRIENDS

[Colonel Flagg]

Let's say [team]s are formed. Perhaps 4 of them. You could assign 4 leaders and people could request to join or be invited. You should try to get noobs to join.

Now each [team] would have their own means of chat (like you used to do with code).

Then you set up a place in which [team]s can make everyone laugh.

Now here is the reason why I think it could make a dent in improving the boards. It promotes team work, you would be able to teach noobs the 9 ways of funny, it promotes competition (who's [team] is the funniest.), people who never got along (if accepted into the same [team]) might form a bond, you know some real funny things are gonna happen.

Although still somewhat wet-behind-the-ears, I'll weigh in and say that I like this idea. Not only could it be a good way of introducing people to the concept of i-mockery humor, it also could teach some skills (cooperation, listening, reasoned debate) that are useful in everyday life.

Businesses are doing this in the workplace; why can't we make it work on a humor web site?

(And yes, I'm including myself in the "we" category!):)

(Note to Tadao - My apologies, but I changed the word "gang" to "team" in your post above because it's friendlier. I grew up in Philly.:()

[executioneer]

i think we should bring back that thread where we all set up matches playing fighting games on MAME or something, that shit was fun

[Girl Drink Drunk]

DON'T WORRY I KNEW YOU WERE A GUY BECAUSE WE'RE BEST FACEBOOK FRIENDS
:lol

[executioneer]

and maybe unban jixby ;_;

[Zomboid]

I like jixby, but wouldn't that GO AGAINST ALL THE RULES OF THE SECRET SANTA EVENT?

Then again, wasn't orange juice bruce supposed to be banned after the first one?

EDIT: I forgot about imock on facebook. I left cause I don't want anyone that I know to know that I post on INTERNET FORUMS!

[Esuohlim]

I'm all for unbanning Jixby too but does he really still want to to post here?

[Fathom Zero]

Seriously, I would forgive somebody if they couldn't/wouldn't send out my package.

I don't expect to get anything on Christmas.

[Guitar Woman]

Yeah, what's with not banning ZBF for fucking up Secret Santa and bringing the axe on Jixby?

Shame on you.

[Mockery]

Ok, so a couple of things here...

1) I think some of the older site vets from way back when are bored with the I-Mockery forums because it's a different kind of site in many ways. We used to be almost 100% scene mockery (making fun of whatever music scene you were into), and as a result, this drew in a LOT of complete idiots who didn't get the joke and it was fun as hell to verbally rip them apart in public. As time went on, I got really bored of making scene mockery sites and started expanding into different areas of mockery such as picking apart the stupid things in bad movies, making fun of video games and bad rom hacks, etc etc. While this has obviously generated WAAAAY more traffic for I-Mockery and given us a huge audience, it doesn't make as many complete fools come our way who are ready to get into a knife fight with anybody who says something bad about their scene. You'll be hard pressed to find people who will defend their shit so blindly (even on a humor site) as people who are big into their music and/or religious scenes.

2) I really don't think there's anything wrong with most of the new people who are registering on the site just so they can comment in the articles, weeklies and blog posts. I know the site is called "I-Mockery" 'n all, but there are some people who come here just to let the writers do the mocking and then they comment on it without the intention of getting into a flamewar with some of the other forum members. If there's not enough "mockery" in the comments of the site article threads for you, that's what the forums are for. However, if you feel inclined to "spice things up" in any given article discussion thread, by all means, feel free to do so... just be careful that you're not starting shit for the sake of starting shit and causing a thread to get completely derailed. These are permanent threads that are created for the sole intention of people discussing the article... not your issues with some other poster.

3) I'd be happy to bring back the Mock Wars once 'n a while, but as Chojin already stated, that forum went to shit long ago and I was all too happy to scrap it. Our big site redesign launch has really breathed a lot of new life into I-Mockery over the past few months and you're gonna continue to see some new faces. I have no problem with the forum members mocking each other, that kind of shit is to be expected on this site... just make sure you're not constantly trolling or stalking individual users from thread to thread. That's how discussions end up getting derailed.

4) If you guys have real suggestions for improving the forums, I'm happy to hear 'em. I don't post a lot in here these days because I'm extremely busy, but I still try to keep up with most of what's going on 'round these parts.

:themoreyouknow

[Pentegarn]

I like the gang/team idea as well. It would have to be watched closely of course, or as Chojin said, it could work out in the opposite direction as it was intended. I also like the infractions idea would help, especially within the team idea. Perhaps the team leaders are also part of the group of members who could give infractions so that they could drop infractions on members of their team who are repeatedly acting in a manner unfit for someone on a team.

Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing a sports board added. Some of the best flames and smack I have ever seen come from sports discussion boards. There's something about sports (especially collegate sports) that brings out many peoples inner flaming troll (usually with entertaining results). Not sure how popular a sports board would be here though.

[Guitar Woman]

I think the gang idea is stupid.

[Fathom Zero]

I have a football thread going from time to time.

But you're forgetting that this place is a buncha nerds.

BTW, the Big Show totally kicked Jericho's ass, Chojin. Did ya see it?

[Fathom Zero]

I think the gang idea is stupid.

The only person that would be on your team would be Juttin.

[Pub Lover]

I got Juttin's back! >:

Not by choice.


Let's get some mod attention to the off topic in here already. :(

[Pentegarn]

It's cool, Protoclown already told us sports geeks are geeks too :lol

We could even discuss " wrastlin' " because it is "sports entertainment" :P

[Mockery]

I like the gang/team idea as well. It would have to be watched closely of course, or as Chojin said, it could work out in the opposite direction as it was intended.
Yeah, I could see something like that turning into elitist cliques that would steer more people away from the forums rather than bring 'em in. It'd have to be handled carefully.

I've never done a sports forum because, I dunno, I-Mockery just doesn't seem like a big sports fan place. If enough people really want a forum to discuss that shit, I guess I could set one up at some point to see how it goes, but since our site draws in a lot of movie/comic/gaming geeks, I'm not sure how many of those people would want to talk about sports. Tell ya what, how about you start up an all-purpose thread called "THE SPORTS THREAD" in general blabber and see how that goes. If it does well enough and enough people are into it, maybe we'll set up a sports test forum for a while. Try the single thread first though...

[WhiteRat]

I enjoyed that football thread from way back but no one really did anything with it last season.

True, this place runs rampant with the nerd type but some of them have to give a shit about sports (I hope).

[Chojin]

This is probably what we should have done with loveline and the comic forum.

:themoreyouknow
I forgot to mention that I've also made links to the forum more prominent on the homepage ever since the site redesign, so there are more people coming here. Plus, ALL I-Mockery contests are now exclusive to the forum - you have to have an I-Mockery account to participate.

One interesting thing about the contests I've noticed though: while a lot of people view them, I notice a lot of our forum regulars don't participate in the fun, which is too bad because they're some of the funniest people around here. It's a good way to have some fun on the site and it can also show some of those "newbs" that some of you think are unfunny how to make entries that are funny.

that is all............................................ for now.

DUN DUN DUN!

[executioneer]

but there are some people who come here just to let the writers do the mocking and then they comment on it without the intention of getting into a flamewar with some of the other forum members

obviously NOT talking about yxlaxx here

[executioneer]

IM PLANNING ON PARTICIPATING INT HE TENTACLE CONTEST IF NOBODY STEALS MY IDEA >: >: >: >:

[Girl Drink Drunk]

How about we get some more forum avatars? It's a small thing, but it's hard to tell these new guys apart when a good chunk of them are using that Urban Champion one.

[Sacks]

I'll just start being an asshole. Every forum needs a good VILLAIN.

[Mockery]

obviously NOT talking about yxlaxx here
Actually, I haven't followed that whole thing at all, but it's apparently the talk of the town.

Glad you're gonna enter the tentacle arm contest, Willie. :picklehat

How about we get some more forum avatars? It's a small thing, but it's hard to tell these new guys apart when a good chunk of them are using that Urban Champion one.
I'm not sure how to do that, I'll have to ask if there's a way to do it. I figured most people would eventually change their avatar on their own but maybe I need to set the new user avatar to an image that says "YOU CAN TELL I'M NEW BECAUSE I HAVEN'T CHANGED THIS AVATAR YET :O" or something...

[Tadao]

How about "My comment is not valid because I'll never post again."

[Pentegarn]

How about "My comment is not valid because I'll never post again."

That would be more used than the Urban Champion one :lol

In all seriousness though, why should we bother with more avatars? Uploading a custom avatar is about as simple as it gets, really. If people are too stupid to figure out that much it they should be stuck with the "new user" one as though they have a big scarlet S on their forehead.

[GADZOOKS]

Delete the chatroom thread, and make Willie a moderator.

In all seriousness, the youtube poop and references of 4chan need to be dialed down. It's becoming the "Simpsons Quote" of the new decade. Maybe a few of us disgruntled old people would post again then.

[MetalMilitia]

What's really missing these days are the regulars with bizarre problems that everyone could poke fun at (:oao).

Mocking noobs is never that funny because no one knows anything about them and baseless insults are too easy and generally speaking, shit.

[Girl Drink Drunk]

We could have an ice cream social, and a thread for talking about feelings!

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Are you suggesting we bring back Lenor and Arrow X or something?

[MetalMilitia]

Well, not Lenor.... or ArrowX...

To be honest I don't want to bring anyone back. I want new people with new and unfortunate love lives to read about. :/

[GADZOOKS]

I wonder what Juttin is doing these days.

[MLE]

Probably following in his dad's footsteps, I hope

[liquidstatik]

:lol

[Fathom Zero]

Football last season took a backseat to more personal issues, but rest assured, I will be following Mike Tomlin and the rest of the Steelers to victory next year.

[Xydexx]

What do furries have to do with this thread.
Just suggesting how you can avoid repeating the same mistakes others have made. If you're immune to constructive criticism and don't actually want to improve things that's fine too, but I'd think it would be a lot more difficult to come up with actual solutions to the problems your forums have when you're writing the solutions off as "serious business." :)

[MetalMilitia]

Having sex with fat people dressed as yogi bear is the solution to nothing, Xydexx. :rolleyes

[Xydexx]

If you guys have real suggestions for improving the forums, I'm happy to hear 'em.
Yah. Good luck with that.

[liquidstatik]

dude shut up u dont even know wut ur talkin about

[Chojin]

YEE HAW JUST BAGGED ME A FURRY, Y'ALL

[Chojin]

oh no moments after I did that the boards fell apart! :eek

[Tadao]

I didn't mind Xydexx until now. I thought he could tell the difference between constructive conversation and pointless banter. I bet this is why everyone hates him elsewhere. Thanks for banning him.

[Chojin]

Yeah, don't know what made him think he needed to BRING THE FIGHT TO US in this thread.

[Tadao]

He used it as a ploy to tell his buddies how we don't listen to reason. That is the way he fights. He was trying to get banned and now he has another badge. I pride myself on crossing the line many times here and never receiving 1 infraction. His style is weak and he is the kind who need to be removed to keep this forum less gay. So, I'm the only one to come up with an idea for fun? You guys suck rhino balls.

[Grislygus]

Xxydexx got banned already? Crap. How many times I need to bait a faggot before the indignant outrage begins, the only good chance I ever got was with musicisjustic, and it ain't fair.

Anyway, I didn't read much of this after
BLAH: "BLAH BLAH BLAH"
BLAH: "BLAH"
BLAH: "BLAH BLAH"
CHOJIN: "GRRR"
ZOMBOID: "ARGH"
BLAH: "BLAH"

but at risk of assuredly being a complete faggot, I actually really liked the idea of grudge matches, and think it would be fun to do on the condition that it be treated like a sacred duel, which could only be had in a locked forum after requesting one through a moderator and the loser (or losers, if the participants turn out to suck) are punished in creative ways.

[RaNkeri]

He will be back.


With his friends :x

[Chojin]

Well, I only banned him for 1 day, anyway.

[liquidstatik]

IRC

[Grislygus]

Maybe he can bring some balls this time. >: Anyway, I would also make the equally gay recommendation that members be able to be OFFICALLY BE TRIED FOR FAGGOTRY, with an uninvolved mod as ruling judge and one of many elite members democratically elected by the populace as "not gay" acting as lawyers, both for and against the defense, with a ruling against the defense involving creative, mod-power abusing punishment and a ruling for the defense allowing the board to vote on whether or not the defendant be given official "not gay" status.


Of course, this would involve anyone nominated as a lawyer in the very beginning be tried for faggotry, and allowed to choose their own defense and a court-appointed prosecutor. Anyway, the key point of either of my ideas is that they not be taken seriously in any way and ALL participants be mercilessly mocked in the comments section.

[Sacks]

If he comes back, a small hell will be coming with him.

[Dr. Boogie]

I don't know that we really need to change anything that dramatically. We've always had people coming in and saying that the forums, and the site in general, isn't what it used to be, and we just dismiss them.

The boards have always had a fairly dynamic membership. People come and go; some stick around for longer than others and form bonds with other posters, and then they leave and their friends miss them and start thinking less of the new people that come in, especially short-term posters with no real personality apart from some hilarious ebaum's pic.

And now that we've got more people coming to the boards with the comments system. Some will stay longterm, others will put a few trite remarks out there and leave after a few weeks. In the old days, we used to speed up this process by mocking crappy new people, but now, we have an ignore feature.

I just don't know what else we really need to do, apart from cracking down on crappy posters.

[MLE]

members be able to be OFFICALLY BE TRIED FOR FAGGOTRY.

Am I wrong to like this idea, or is he just playing off my Phoenix Wright obsession?

I can't tell.

[Grislygus]

I've been thinking it would be an awesome idea for a while now, and now's my big chance.

I just like the idea of one of our funnier members being randomly tasked with finding reasons to pick on someone, and an even funnier member being forced to come up with reasons why he shouldn't be punished, especially if the accused is a total gaywad.

Let's just imagine, for example, around the time Zeldasbiggestfan was bitching about being owed money, getting shot with a bb gun and screwed over Sethomas, that ZBF had been brought to trial for faggotry.

He isn't allowed to post in the trial thread. Big point there. In fact, he doesn't post at all, because he is banned for the day that the trial takes place. Sethomas prosecutes and some equally intellectual and/or crazy internet personality is tasked with defending him (For reasons of the accused being a total dink, he is arbitrarily not allowed to choose his defense lawyer), with AChimp presiding over the trial. The defendant is found guilty of being a gaywad, and sentenced to three months of a genuine-looking gay pride avatar, title, and signature with permanent loss of edit button.

[Grislygus]

Or, you could totally take all of this very seriously and recruit deputies to enforce internet law. Whichever works for you guys.

[Chojin]

i support this idea

[executioneer]

except it would require achimps presence and he doesnt love us anymore ;_;

[Grislygus]

Doesn't always have to be AChimp.

Helps, though.

[JediScum]

If Zelda's Biggest Fan is on trial, I will defend him!

[Guitar Woman]

Vent server.

It'd be hilarious, trust me.

[MetalMilitia]

...and empty.

[Sacks]

Lets drink mad dog and hate police.

[Grislygus]

To clarify my previous proposal, Jediscum, you are a defendant

[Tadao]

I'm shopping for a representative.

[RaNkeri]

I want to be the guard who yells "all raise" when the judge comes in >:

[Chojin]

would we get to use phoenix wright animated gifs

[Grislygus]

ABSOLUTELY. The lawyers can do whatever the hell they want as long as the defendant shuts the fuck up for a day.

[Esuohlim]

I want to be the guard who yells "all raise" when the judge comes in >:

lol

Do you want to yell "OBJECTIVE" too?

[MetalMilitia]

While we're yelling things can I have "THAT'S BALONEY!"?

[Grislygus]

In the comments section, probably, I don't see you getting a law degree

[GADZOOKS]

The title of this thread sounds like something Jixby Phillips would post.

:(

[Sacks]

I wrote a cover of Michelle's Smiling for Jixby that I was going to post after he was banned AND THEN I REALIZED HE WOULD NEVER HEAR IT BECAUSE HE'S BANNED. >:

[Misdemonar]

The title of this thread sounds like something Jixby Phillips would post.

:(

R.I.P.

I know something fun the board can do!

UNBAN JIXBY! >:

Don't tell anyone but I have banning/unbanning power :shhh

[Fathom Zero]

:O

[sspadowsky]

Say, Mods, I thought of something fun!

Ban ElPila666. Worst character ever. If you could find out who created it and ban them too, that just might put a big smile on my face today.

[Guitar Woman]

Fuck you, I love ElPila :<

[Zomboid]

I concur! (with sspad. GW can die in the next emo beat down)

[sspadowsky]

Fuck you, I love ElPila :<

You should be banned for liking ElPila, if you didn't create it.

I hope ElPila gets character cancer.

[executioneer]

he's not a character he's just from south america

and if we're banning foreigns, i think fathippo is way ahead of elpila

[Dr. Boogie]

Say, Mods, I thought of something fun!

Believe me, I tried.

:tear

[Sacks]

Looks like it's time you bought us all off with knives and watches.

[AChimp]

I'd probably find everyone guild of Internet faggotry. :/

I think that most of the older posters don't have nearly as much time to post anymore, and so the newer members and random shitheads start to become all that you see, which really turns off the older posters.

Also, I think the Philosophy forum needs an enema. It's stagnated to the point where no one even wants to go there anymore. :(

Hey, Chimpy, go there and start an abortion thread! That will freshen things up!

[ChicagoDrew]

Hey, Chimpy, go there and start an abortion thread! That will freshen things up!

Not to get a 'boo hoo' or some shit, but I posted one damn comment in the Philosophy/Politics board, one that was detailed, and some jerk (sspadowsky, I believe) joined the thread with one lame-ass comment probably copied from a 13 year-old goth girl's MySpace page.

I believe users like that are why some boards suffer when they could really be much more interesting for older users.

[Sacks]

ChicagoDrew isn't pulling any punches!

[GADZOOKS]

Welcome back, Mr. Adventure!

This board is now officially fun!

[executioneer]

Also, I think the Philosophy forum needs an enema.

i think the philosophy board needs an ENIGMA :eek

My birthday's coming up! 22 days!

Throw me a party!

[Chojin]

a lot of things happen when you hit the big 1-0.

candy doesn't taste as good anymore.

[Fathom Zero]

All I eat is the chocolate, if you know what I'm saying.

[MattJack]

NOOB3 :shatner

[Fathom Zero]

We have the same birthday. I'll come to his house and give him a death shake.

[MattJack]

just extract the Secret Santa gift he owes me from his house, and then commence with the death shake

[Tadao]

I hope he got you a punch in the chops!

[MattJack]

Knowing him he probably spent all his money on weed.

[Fathom Zero]

Would you rather he didn't?

[Fat_Hippo]

He'd probably prefer he spent his money on weed, and then sent it as a Secret Santa gift to Mattjack. But then, who wouldn't?

[Sam]

I bet he bought some hella good bacon with that money.

[Zomboid]

I bet he didn't. Probably bought some marijuana :rolleyes

[liquidstatik]

marihuana :rolleyes

[Sam]

bacon :rolleyes

[GADZOOKS]

I don't think my friend Jixby should of got the same punishment as Noob3. I mean he did send his gifts he just didn't make that video. Also, he had a hernia so I think he got his just desserts.

[MattJack]

A DEAL IS A DEAL PEOPLE

[GADZOOKS]

well the deal is off, howie mandel

[MattJack]

http://www.magneticmediafed.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/montyhall.jpg

[MattJack]

and then u own up to the deal

[Dr. Boogie]

I don't think my friend Jixby should of got the same punishment as Noob3. I mean he did send his gifts he just didn't make that video. Also, he had a hernia so I think he got his just desserts.

Yeah, he signed up for something with the knowledge that he'd be banned if he didn't follow through. And I gave him a month past the deadline, and still nothing.

[GADZOOKS]

Well I didn't read the thread. I was just saying the punishment should of fit the crime.

He probably wouldn't post here anyway, he now runs a hernia support forum for young adults.

[Sam]

He actually had a video like two days after he was banned.

[Dr. Boogie]

Yeah, a month and two days after he was supposed to have it. Quite timely.

[WhiteRat]

Full use of the salad bar would be greatly appreciated. It makes complete sense if you actually think about it.

We could hunt down Guitar Woman!
