I cannot emphasize enough how much it absolutely SHITS all over a lot of the mood when the higher up won't even hear people out.

Unironically this sentence is why I think it should be mandatory in the western world for everyone to work at a big chain retailer/grocery store and fast food. One of the worst things in the world is management who has decided because they're suffering they've got to make others below them suffer.

Cuba's suggestion of a combined corporation thread is interesting. If there was sufficient initiative and agreement among people then I would consider it, as I'd consider a merging of the small indie & large indie thread. Then allow them to split back into individual threads again if they grow large and fast enough.

before proctor goes smelling his own farts again looking for more ways to "improve" the site, I will quickly drop that I too would like an unified corpo + indie thread

Posting in hugboxes where there is no resistance is not fun

We should have a nice little thread where you can post about corpos, big or small, but also have ways to shill for your favorite indie-fags, big or small
Could even call it something neat to fit its purpose, like a catch-all thread, idk

With regards to the tone of conversation, all I can say is to be the change you want to see. People post about drama a lot because there is a lot of it to discuss, but I have not seen evidence of a chilling effect on well-written positive posts; the problem is that a lot of people posting specifically to promote a streamer are not very good at doing so. Almost every page of the general thread, for years now, has had multiple posts consisting entirely of "X is live" and a stream embed, which tells me absolutely nothing about what's happening on the stream or why I might want to watch it - which, despite being well-intentioned, causes them to be lost among the more detailed drama or industry analysis posts that actually have some kind of hook to catch people's interest. You are fighting for attention on a page that is already trying to recommend me over ten hours' worth of content. None of us have time to watch it all, so make an effort to advertise what you're posting in a way that will resonate with the right kind of audience for it.

what I am getting this is that we need more people like @Shuba shilling their oshi in informative texts
(I agree)

I try to do it myself as well but I feel like I miss the window of opportunity a lot because my writing is slow and not good

s a potential solution to how bad the general thread's energy had gotten.

this is the shit I dont get
I might not be core member or anything but I have been here for a while and even lurked the kiwi thread and the General has never felt bad, unfriendly or negative to me or towards my posts
Where is that bad energy? What posts are the mod seeing that count as bad energy that I dont see?

Compared to how the KF thread would talk about Kiara, that stuff was downright mean and unwarranted at times. But here? Nah its peaceful, "pink woman bad" and "orange woman bad" have become memes of their own

and if replying "who????" to the local 1view indie is bad energy, then how the fuck are you even surviving the whole energy of this forum, thats beyond retarded

Same here. But I guess I classify as one of the "bullies" who keep people down by shitposting or making a snarky quip at their expense every so often.

I guess someone replying "Who?" to an indie shill is what's keeping the forum innacesible to outsiders. Not the fact that we discuss taboo topics, use slurs or are generally unafraid to coddle people's opinions.

I do feel people negative-loop about certain vtubers too much when they're posted instead of just ignoring, but it's always, ALWAYS been like that, and it's easy to ignore.

Yeah, thats why split threads exist, so you can negative loop about vtubers and have less pesky outside views or downtime to stop the snowball of spergery!

Speaking of Reddit, I've noticed a comic "artist", named Pizza Cake Comics, has been on a politispreging spree lately.
Examples:




You can tell she suffers from Trump and Elon derangement syndrome. I wonder if this is Clara's favorite political comic?

This one has me dying. Lately Reddit has been spreging about how Canadians would launch an insurgency, waging a guerrilla war against the US military, if they invaded.

Sure dude, the country with unarmed civilian population and strict gun control is gonna beat the US army, the same way Afghanistan did, LMAO
I wonder how long til we get some edits.

edit: wouldn't be surprised Nolan is related to Pizza cake.

I dunno, especially when women have this irrational hatred of Elon, something in my brain tells me they're just mad they weren't picked to have his test tube babies.

It's never ogre

It's fine, I'm giving it up. I didn't want to because like you and @Saturnus and @Trap Supremacy (in his way, I still refuse to hold it against him because I understand the intention) I get the concept of pushing to bring up the mood or trying to improve things but it's not worth it. There's no happy pill or whatever, the fact people are discussing among each other how much they actually miss when everyone stopped caring so much and would just talk about who they like and maybe slap some clips on to end their post is already more than we can get from the person upstairs anyway.
This is an interaction NATURALLY HAPPENING between users and it's happening here, in a "general thread" that isn't split into seperate threads named forum lovers/forum haters/forum tolerators/forum visitors enjoying another shit show. It literally just ended up being a chat because people engaged each other. Has fuck all to do with some forced safe space and it's happening DESPITE the guy in charge lecturing everybody here about how we apparently can't manage to do this because.. some anecdotal evidence that has fuck all to do with us.

My entire point just being that for me, personally, despite however much sucked in the scene relating to shit I like, I could be down a while but hey fuck it. I could go to the forum and see other people who weren't as down posting shit they enjoyed, making a few jokes, bringing up memories or clips, people like @Shuba espousing his absolute adoration of someone, or even just posting shit to try and cheer up the general mood. My falling off of general usage in the forum isn't because of compounding issues in the scene that fucking suck. I get over it in a day or few. It's because using the forum feels like shit between drama pushing and forced changes made, on top of the absolute and total disinterest in listening to the community that's active.

Wanting more people and trying to get newbies on board is dandy. Talking with people about ways to consider doing that would be LOVELY. We USED to do that sort of thing, but not anymore. Dealing with disruptive elements? Community chat. Potential bans? Community input. Making a mascot for the Hell of it? Get in here boys!
Now with little to no discourse we're being told instead that your opinion doesn't matter and "your sacrifice is one I'm willing to make" in the face of general disapproval for said changes. Yeah, we had the discussion a couple times already about thread split and most people disagreed, but things changed so you say you wanted to consider it again. Fine. Oh just kidding it's implemented now with 0 actual regard for how to do it. In fact people have already SAID what parts they think kind of worked or could be elaborated on, in here, this very thread, in the last day or two of this nonsense.
And it's already been dusted away with 0 consideration. THAT is the actual most tiring part of the forum in this space. We're allowed to type here but fuck you if you want to offer input on literally anything. And it feels like shit.

If you should have learned anything recently, it's that you can't just Migo someone. And to think we act like Pekora is the war criminal.
