Does jmakin have admin privileges at SPE?
I’d ask what you think the reason(s) were for posters drifting away because it’s something that I find interesting but you’re not a substantive person.
Well most people are more emotional about things than you are. I respect that view, but I would feel bad if I invested time and care into a place and then had no voice whatsoever. I also don’t believe many people can actually keep that emotion-free approach, so I find it interesting.
I’m just glad goofy posted that last night so we’d have a full Friday to talk about it.
Unfortunately goofy stole my thunder a little but I too have a new forum. It’s called
STFU

It’s really incredible how high you are on your own supply that you see the world this way. cw invites a friend and this is immediately where your mind goes. Again, these two forums are not the same product.
No. His technical expertise was very helpful for getting the site up and running, but throughout that process he requested (and we all agreed) that he should never have admin access.
Logging off for awhile again, have fun continuing to argue forever.
Confirmed intentional for marketing purposes. Create a very provocative OP and let the contentious discussion proceed. Then step in and say “Look at this mess here, try our product instead.”
To anyone who thinks UP and SPE are offering the same product, I invite you to read this thread, then read literally any thread on SPE, and compare whether the two forums are really that similar.
Well fuck me, I was starting to get the feel for posting here again. Two forums feels like too many already, and I don’t know if I can up it to three.
Not being snarky fwiw. I just preferred the days when it was all these folks in one place.
I am in no way saying UP was not already dying and that this might have been inevitable - that was part of my last parenthetical - I and lots of other people are also to blame (with varying degrees). This was just obviously one of the final straws, so it’s sad that we’re here.
Some NMNM posters forced our hands by impersonating other people to get an invite link to spread amongst themselves.
If true, this is sad behavior. If untrue, this is also sad. There’s no unsad middle ground.
By the way, why is the SPE announcement thread locked with the discussion here?
Because we don’t have a Not About Unstuck forum.
I split the discussion off based on this post
Imo it’s OK if SPE doesn’t want to have an about moderation forum. But it doesn’t seem fair for them to put their about moderation forum on UP.
shoulda airdropped a token.
Is RivermanDAO migrating to the SPEchain or staying on the UP ledger?
fri-day night
i’m thinkin that
we just might
fly away to someplace
they don’t know
who the mods are
Yeah it would have been better if the OP said certain people won’t be welcome. Which is entirely fair, I wouldn’t want most of grue’s ignore list posting there and fucking up yet another site either way. But just be upfront about it.
