you whiny fucks that think you have it so bad...try using a BBS from back in the days of dial-up internet service where the only way to navigate through unsorted topics was to scroll down hundreds and hundreds of posts that were christmas-treed

before you start complaining you should appreciate how good you have it
Yea, I walked 60 miles through the snow without shoes, sucking on a stone just to work 18 hours on the press for 5 cents a day.

GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

youre too young to have a clue

go have your mommy change your diaper.  youre starting to stink

You are just pathetic. It's not fun anymore, you truly disgust me. Go play somewhere else.

As we have been discussing post quality and shitposting, a lot of the discussion starts with how the recent topics section looks.  Right now, it is cluttered and a lot of useful threads get buried.

Since SG and HB both show up in the recent topics, I rarely move things because more people go off of the recent topics block than they do browse the specific forums.  However, I suggest we remove the HB forum from showing up at all in the recent topics, much like bat country did not show up in the Zoklet recent topics.

I would start moving a lot more threads to HB, namely from SG and BLTC.  However, HB still adheres to site-wide rules and would not simply be a trash can.  Several threads might become NIMF'd.  Furthermore, I haven't tested it, but we should never have a NIMF thread displayed in the recent topics section.

Thoughts?

I hope you're not thinking of moving the retarded thread from BLTC to HB. The backlash against that would be very bad. BLTC has its own very strong sub community vibe and while the retarded thread started off as a place to keep the shitposting contained its turned into an integral part of our community. HB has its own feel & sub community (what little of it remains...).

Otherwise, I tend to agree...SG &HB are right there in the top of the forum list and easy for anyone to look through. The specialty forums need more love.

This mindset makes no sense and defies the logic everyone else spew out of the other side of their mouths. One thing most people agree with is that BLTC was a lot BETTER and more informative on Totse than on Zoklet. Yet Totse never had a retarded thread, and it didn't even come about on Zoklet until about halfway through its run. The whole reason the retarded thread came about was because a bunch of lazy spastic moderators didn't want to do their job and infract users (read: their buddies) that brought no substance to a discussion....instead just HB slobber and nonsense. So they took the lazy/easy man's way out and dumped bullshit posts into one portal, and never did a thing to improve the quality of that forum...as evidenced by the fact that several years later everyone STILL thinks Totse's version of BLTC was  far and away much better quality.

If you have posters that so URGENTLY (your words) need to post HB drivel, why can't they do it in appropriate forums...because this "culture"(?) you speak of is a proven model of failure and not success, because all it does is inspire retardation in that forum as a whole, not adult informative discussion.

And here we are, right back to pretty much the same problem we were dealing with for the meth heads that used to be here.

Before we go any further though, everyone should know that they can block certain boards from showing up in the Recent Posts bar and the 'Show new posts' links next to the username on the top of the page.

Quote from: Site FAQ v2.0
Q: How can I set what topics show up in the 'Show unreal posts link/Recent Posts bar'?
A: Go to your Profile Summary. In that, next to Profile Info, there's a tab that's labeled, "Modify Profile". Hover your mouse over that and that will bring up a box. Then simply click on Ignore Boards Options. And there you go. Just select whatever boards you want to not show up in the Recent Posts bar and etc.


Time is always against you in some way or another.
