What happened between SW and SP?

I, for one, welcome the cold-shoulder we get from Basil and SW. It puts off our Eternal September that much longer.

Im gutsy.../sarcasm

Yes. Trolling other websites makes you such an internet bad-boy. Honestly, forum elitism is so unbelievably stupid: "My forum is so much better than that other forum. I'm going to go trash it because we're so much better than them. That would really show those boring users just how cool we really are as a forum board." Or, "OMG Teehee hee. I'm going to sneak forum memes to other forum boards in order for them to find out how cool we are so they can join our community. PONYSTAR, CHINCHILLA, and other forms of one-worded stupidity. They'll think we're so damn cool for using the most unoriginal and over-done methods of trying to troll our moderation-board."

This type of mentality can only be formed by prolonged stupidity, the avid support of sheep-users who believe their moderators are philosopher-kings, and the whole forum has developed their own unimaginable amount of unjustifiable ego that it's just waiting to rape someone in the face. These type of ingredients are perhaps what spawned Hidden Street's novel idea to troll Sleepywood's forum site by setting up a fake social thread about furries. The person who created the thread was a moderator of Hidden Street and obviously thought it would honestly be a goddamn riot to create such a hilarious thread. Hidden-street clearly dug into their creative juices to come up with this material. Because clearly almost every single prominent member of HS was e-jaculating all over the thread like it was the next best thing since the guy who marketed "pet rocks."

Honestly, in certain forum boards there is so much inbreeding and inside jokes going on that it takes just a glance from an outside perspective to realize that it's inhabitants are more or less egotistical asshats who would rather compliment a poorly thought thread written by a half-assed nitwit who has been hanging around since the stone ages rather than recognize the merit that new posters can provide. But of course the purpose of forum boards isn't to award novel ideas or promote creative endeavors of all shapes and sizes. It's to chum around with the same "online friends" day in and day out until you can make gay jokes and pokemon references all the time. And no one will tell you that it's really stupid and you're being a total idiot in the process because everyone loves ones another and would be happier making unfunny gay jokes rather than actually being honest and telling the other guy to f[SIZE="2"]uc[/SIZE]k off.

Then again all forum boards promote singular-sided opinion (i.e. pro-moderation / pro-power). And after a good-year into the system, the indoctrination process is pretty much settled and the forum already has it's sheep army that is set to defend, argue, and take pride in even the most arbitrarily stupid of forum posts. If you can be positive all the time and offer sugar-coated advice, then you're definitely going to be top-notch forum board material. But for the cynics, the sadists, and the simply realists, there is no place for such hoodlums within the sugar-coated social dynamics of kindergarten forum board moderation.

The friends you think you have online who you respect and love would honestly stab you in the back the next day. They'll take something you loved, a section you liked, and will turn it against you. Because they know you and can crush you completely before kicking you out of the forum board for trying to implement fair play. Even the most elaborate and most thoughtful threads are horridly useless when a moderator decides to change all the responses to "suck my penis." The people who you thought were so great end up being nothing but turn-coat trash. But I will admit, there are a select few within that group that know and recognize a friend when they see it. It just sucks when they're too late to offer a helping hand. Nothing is worth it these days. No one gives a damn. So let's just start derailing this thread or making more Kanye jokes because that's what Sleepywood, Southperry, and a crap load of other forums boards have degraded into anyway.

I agree with you, but honestly, I view trolling on other websites as the same exact thing as what Greg and Opeth do to us every day. So stupid that it's funny.

And besides-it's not really trolling...it's more like...advertising.

I read most of that, but please, dont take anything we say here seriously. Im getting a personal laugh from setting up such a post, I dont know about other people.

If I really didnt like Basil Or Sleepywood, I would try to get banned there on my main accounts, but I dont, becuase I still somewhat use them.

Anyway, this thread's main topic is practically gone, I vote to lock it.

Then again Milelke...you're kinda stepping a bit far with your posts...

Im being sarcastic alot. Too bad its hard to detect sarcasm on the interent without ending a reply with "/sarcasm".

I came to SP when i finally realized what had happened. Since everything about SP and Fiel was banned from SW, it was incredibly hard to figure out what was going on. I believe in opening up and letting people know what the hell is going on, not "Oh, let's never speak of this drama-filled instance ever again". Because people not in the loop are going to get extremely pissed off.

I still use SW for information and so forth. I'm not going to burn an unnecessary bridge for myself. I just laugh at Adura now after hearing all of these stories. Life is too short to be such an pimento and hold such ridiculous grudges.

I realize most of the people on all of these forums are pretty young, but you're really never too young to learn acceptable social behavior. I just shake my head and say to myself "These people need to take a Dale Carnegie course."

After that course, you'll seriously look at your everyday life and say "What the hell, why am i such a douchebag to people?"

So let's just start derailing this thread or making more Kanye jokes because that's what Sleepywood, Southperry, and a crap load of other forums boards have degraded into anyway.

Seriously, if you think SP is so bad and you need to make a tl;dr about how the regulars of this forum are "elitists," "sheep," "unoriginal," etc., then I invite you to get out of here and find some place less "elitist," "sheepish," and more "original." Nobody is keeping you here. Leave.

Most of the people here are nerdish, a lot play Maple story, and forgive us, oh-so-mighty for making our board something more than "giv me advic on how ot use brandish on harps." I mean, where the hell did you come from? You've been here since the 5th of September, what do you know about this place, of the work that was put in making it what it is, of the people that consider each other friends here? If you go through the Site Assistance and Suggestions forum, you'll see that a ton of us have worked our asses off to make Southperry what it is. Over the course of over a year, some good suggestions were culled from an ocean of pomegranatety and mediocre ones, and today is the result of that. I personally am responsible for a bunch of rules changes, (including ones that I objectively judged to be good for this forum that were later used against ME,) and I suggested 3 out of the 4 custom emotes that are used on this forum. But no, it couldn't possibly be that I was trying to improve the place, I had to have done that because I am "elitist," a "sheep," and "unoriginal." I've been here since Day 2, I don't need a "sheep army" to put you in your place if you try to call me these things, or if you try to call my friends these things. So, seriously. Leave. Or stay and defend your so-called logic, and I'll grind you into the dust, along with the others here. I don't need to bash SW to do that. You're fuucking out of line, and it's as simple as that.

The memes on this forum, such as the plane crashing, chinchillas, etc., serve to make this a COMMUNITY. I don't think we're holding congressional meetings here, we're here to have fun. We value wit, we value good conversation, and most of us have enough pressure from the outside world to want to get away from it by coming here. The difference between us and SW is that we do NOT have warnings such as "warning whining," "failure at life," and we don't ban people for disagreeing with us. The difference between this place and /b/ is that even the trolls here do something productive for the place, rather than urinating on anybody not capable of fighting back. The mods are not "above the law" and they are not assholes, they simply come here and hang out with us. These people can infract me and we're talking in IRC two minutes later like it didn't happen; this is the ONLY forum I've ever been to that's like that. And Fiel is NOT Adura, except to people who don't know enough about those two people to compare them, or to people that are dishonest and just want to smear smear smear. For you not to know that, it must mean you simply came here and are mouthing off, because the regulars know it, all of us.

I have to say Quantact, this is the first time I fully agree with you.
