Re: A thought about ULMF...
Eh. it's still personally annoying for me at the moment that many of the popular hentai game threads are being derailed by 4chan meme shit.

Re: A thought about ULMF...
Okay, it's gonna sound really bad, but I honestly don't wanna crack down that hard on people being idiots there. It'd be completely hypocritical of me, and plus I don't like the idea of making the place a nazi regime. But if it's really is that bad, then I'll try to do something about it.

It's not about being in a nazi regime. It's about not turning the forum into 4chan lite.

Re: A thought about ULMF...
It's like going up the stairs in the darkness, it's like a leap of faith, i mean, is there really a way to attain satisfaction or will people fall into the emptiness, drawn to their doom by the illusion of PROFIT!?
Besides the painting is extremely chaotic and misleading, i doubt your average forumite would know much about abstract expressionism.
No.5 bothers me, think about the implications, the implications i say!!!

Buh but... *Sadfaces, quietly stashes his sleek uniform designs away* This is actually one of the reasons I don't apply for mod status. I have a history of sticking to the rules too strictly. Drawing the line is hard, and sometimes you end up performing Riverdance on the toes of people you like.

Eh, well sometimes it's got to be done. If you get into a position as moderator you can't let friendships get in the way of doing your job.
Tis a bit harsh yes, but it's what must be done.

I disagree with the OP. This place is a nice hub where I can actually get intelligent debates off without mods going ape-shit over every little word. Not to suck up here, but you guys have proven to be quite the intellectual crowd. It's hard finding forums that arn't just assholes and trolls. You guys seem to know better, and granted you may troll or be an asshole every once and awhile, you're still a crowd that understands what's actually happening.
I love it... I just disagree with the way the content is organize. When I say content, it's more in regards to the file sharing.

Man, that part made me laugh my ass off. I found it really funny for some reason. Good show!

Elitism! Yay!
On the note of the forums not being the same, I completely agree. I think it stems from the nature of our posting culture, where a post in one thread has to be read to understand the humor in another for instance. This creates a need to read all the threads in order to not fall behind on humor and so on. Before that wasn't a problem, but now? Now there's a new post all the time, there are new worthy threads with activity in them popping up all over the place.
Will a council of older/senior/ high postcount/whatever help? Probably not in any other way than deterring more people from joining the forums, because they get scared off by the close-knit groups.
On the note of the hentai-section, there used to be actual dialogue going on there. There used to be humor and fun. Threads would derail and go on about something funny, while someone posted some hentai every now and again. Now it's industrialized hentai posting, bots, trash and mike's spamming and dumping. I've seen hentai posters rage on the fact that someone went off topic in their thread and didn't talk about their hentai.
No, the forum isn't what it used to be, there are some things that are keeping us close- knit, like the Jungle Girl remake, and the Lurker Wars, and such, but on the grand scale of things the actual problem is that. The scale. It's too hard to follow everything, and that puts us all further apart.
(This was one of the minor reasons I took a break, on top of IRL stuff.)

Well, threads still do derail all the time over there. It's just that the jokes are never funny.
