A new site obviously isn't going to fly.

If we're adding Mods to the vault, then I think some boards would appreciate moderation more than others.



Let's be honest It was never a real proposal 5foot, it was just a little passive aggressive squeal from Sobsob after he got the rough end of the stick on the build threads. And it didn't fool many posters, as several called him out early.

What a pussy Southsobsobsob has become, almost as bad as Cetus when it comes to being precious about his "builder profile".

But on the bright side I gotta give a big hat's off to Strake for knowing the perfect way to expose it for the ridiculous carping it was: "here is your happy forum... now watch what happens"  Fucking beautiful, just beautiful.

Who is this Southsobsob?   Can't see them in the Vault list?

Did they get banished back to the mother forums?

And with that, I think as a Player talking to Turdbine, we mostly have an attitude like this to them.

Hag Master has developed a pretty unhealthy obsession with me. It's getting to the Buffalo Bill stages however, and I'm worried he's going to start RL stalking me on the webs.

It would be cute, if it wasn't so severe as to be creepy. Go ahead, look at how many of his posts have been about me in the last 2-3 months.

He has told me I am a master builder a number of times however, so that's nice.

In regards to this thread, he seems to be sour grapes that I said what a lot of people have been thinking, and sparked an interesting and mostly on topic 7 page thread about the subject.

No one has ever taken any of his threads even remotely seriously. StrakeIn threw him a bone in the new subforum Sunshine and whatever, and I'm afraid it's only fueled his paranoid obsessions and worst proclivities. Hopefully his good friends Grand and Forest can get him the help he needs.

This thread was not started in your honor, despite your delusions.

This was a long time in coming, but your particularly churlish behavior was perhaps the proverbial straw that broke camels back.

Do you really think that anyone is stupid enough to believe that?

It was obvious to anyone that it was you whining about me and the others smacking you down on your "lethality" nonsense and habitual out-of-date bullshit, at the time. Observe:

This. Harhar, if you want a better forum, stop arguing constantly over stuff that doesnt matter. Especially when you are shown to be wrong.

Instead of padding your post count to get to the secret section, just send Strake $50 and Im sure he will unlock the entire forum for you.
[/quote]


And these two guys? Arkat and Hairy? hardly Hag fans, but they still saw right through your transparent bullshit whining and called you on it when they could have just sat back and seen if a hag pile-on happened. Instead they posted and popped your nonsense right out the gate.

The guy who started a "we need a new Vault" thread want's to accuse others of sour grapes, you're funny kid.

And when no one joined his "hag is a meanie" parade he became butthurt. 

Of course the funniest part of all this childish attempt at revisionism is that right after Sobsob started whining for a "safe place" Strake gave Sobsob exactly what he asked for in the form of a entire sub-forum, and Sobby went right over and started posting. But that went south quickly for Sobby,  no one played along with him, and to add insult to injury he got the lowest number of votes to become a moderator.  Then he pulled all of his own posts from the sub-forum he himself whined for because "we was" picking on him.

And now the sub-forum that he begged for and got, is just "a bone" that "Strake threw Hags..."  because he failed so hard there. Like Strake throws anyone a bone? really? too funny.

So in conclusion.. to Northarhar's little claims? No. Uh no. No again, and finally no once more.

Listen Sobby I worry about you son, so I'm going to throw you another bone and point out the two things you need to learn:

1) Don't poke a bear unless your ready to be bear shit.
2) Be careful what you wish for, because Strake might just give it to you.

I thought that if I could figure out that SobSobSob was HarHarHar, that you could figure it out as well.

You're supposed to know it because you seem to figure out lots of stuff.  You're the go-to fella for many things here!  Independent 12 hour Drop Bear confirmation and everything.

I think Hag chose the label "SobSobSob" to indicate that he (Hag) thinks NotHarHarHar was whining in the OP, and applied the "South" prefix so it would have similar pacing with the original name.  That's the meaning I get from it, anyway.

Sobsob's isn't the only one on the vault to use that TLDR tactic, it's the base fallback position for any of the vault light-weights who are out of their depth and getting stomped, better hope you don't use it yourself anytime soon crab-boy, the vault has a memory for hypocrisy.

And your wrong about Sobsob's in that second part about poking as well. See if I felt the compulsion to burn and humiliate Sobsob every time he posted something gay or retarded I wouldn't have time to scratch my ass of late, because every other word he has posted since getting publicly outted and humiliated on his Lethality nonsense (seriously who would be stupid enough to believe that about Lethality???) by a vault noobie has been a gay and retarded exercise in trying to distract and shift.

Here is a little tip for you Crab-boy, you might want to just read and lurk some more before trying your hand in here, not everyone is a useless pussy like Sobsob, so chances are you will get yourself in some grief before you're prepared to deal with it.

Yeah, you got a good point. Not much I can say except that they can't all be home runs. But I do like my averages, and most Vaulties knew exactly who I was talking about, especially Southsobsobsob herself.

I don't think it warrants a new website - with the admin and overheads that go along with that.
You also face the prospect of getting enough people and posts to make it worthwhile for Vaulties to go there.  I was on a few invite only DDO related forums and due to the lack of activity there, I rarely even check in there now.

The are two changes I'd like to see in the Vault. First is for accounts like Astraghal with stupid disruptive socks like HueHueHue to get extinguished fast.

They keep popping up, spew their BS and resurrect a few dozens threads, then fade out.  If you're patient they eventually go away, but it is still irritating sifting through their droppings. 
Conversely, actively squashing them would probably just give people with too much time on their hands an incentive to do it more for "fun".  People seem to be wired like that.

Secondly, I'd like to see a locked down invite only area not related to post count where we can discuss without snitches and bitches.....okay, just without the first one.   Grin
Something like OnePercenter's special area (no, not that one, the other one).   Wink

Otherwise I understand Strakeln provides a community service and doesn't want to spend his time moderating. 
Does that mean delegating?  Maybe, but we all know how that went last time.  Absolute power and all that....   Undecided
Is there a practical middle ground with some of the long term Vaulties acting as admins with powers to suspend accounts/posts until the moderator deletes or releases them?  Have a few across different time zones to give reasonable coverage?
I see the rules around this being pretty clear and not too dissimilar from now.  Eg NSFW posts being suspended until fixed, deleting spam disruption accounts etc.

Ooh - 1 more stealth change. Have all Turdbine related IP's seamlessly redirected to an archive version of the Vault, but make all the posts seem current.   Grin

+1 I like  Grin
