META: About Unstuck splintering into SPE

One of the admins here hasn’t posted in almost 2 months, and the other (who pays the bills and swore he would be here even to the bitter end if it came to that) was one of the very first people to accept an advance invite SPE, create an account, and start posting. Whether it’s financial or technical, seems like there’s a pretty good chance this place won’t exist in the near future.

Well if nothing else this ongoing exodus from 2p2 has all been a fascinating social experiment. Someone should write a book.

Yeah, it really has been. I wish there was a way I could understand what happened without reading all the moderation thread. But I don’t think there is and there is no what I’m doing that.

It seemed like an attempt to create a forum utopia.

And as we have seen from previous attempts at creating utopian societies, they fail miserably despite their good intentions.

Scammer alert!

I thought things here were going swimmingly

The new site has chosen to hide the identity of its mods and admin with Orwellian secrecy, so if you’re going to post there make sure you encrypt your PMs.

Seems like a great place if you’re interested in the combined wisdom of gfy, cuse, Jman and BS.

Yes, I’m sure the admins and mods will insist on total anonymity.

100% guarantee you’ll be there.

If your concern was really how this site was modded due to several peoples historic involvement here (which I still think is fair) why would you care at all what happens at the other site? Nobody has any investment there. If you start attacking it endlessly it will be hard to maintain your position that this hasn’t all been a troll campaign.

ok bud

Only if there’s a French Laundry - Driving Past The Homeless And Other Grotesquely Ostentatious Ways To Showcase Your Wealth thread.

Mind you, some of the Individual Economics aka Look How Much I Suck, Everyone! thread was also pretty good entertainment.

If you want to stick it to the new site, the best revenge would be to make the sort of substantive political posts that they want over there over here and claim that their absence encourages such posts.

I don’t need revenge for anything - I’m very glad those people have gone to their own centrist paradise.
