Funhouse & other Frivolous Things
Fiel Wrote:Two people have up and left only because it disappeared, one of them citing "It's no longer safe to post here". I bet they'll be back though.
Hope so, lack of Khoi is almost as bad as lack of Funhouse.
Satellite Wrote:^That is because most think that Funhouse or something similar will be back.

Sort of disproves the claim that the funhouse was a major draw for traffic though, doesn't it?
Those threads haven't been replaced with new ones somewhere else, for the most part.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.

Except the entire social forum has now become the funhouse. So many retarded threads.

So essentially nothing has changed.
...There's no one left. The moment that new obscenity rule is put into actual place, if it hasn't already, other people will leave too.

Comparing Khoi to the Funhouse?

Sounds about right.
Make your own fun instead of relying on someone else.

Just don't be stupid about it.

Hi all you no ones in this thread. *wave*

Correct me if I am wrong, but, I don't think anyone ever said that the Funhouse was a major draw for traffic, but, rather, a major draw for the long time active members of the forum.

Your chart while interesting has nothing to do with what I was musing over. And further more it is not a fair comparison. As you and Fiel as been so kind as to point out many times extractions are the main draw and comparing the visitors the forum gets to the active posting members is like comparing the an apple tree to an apple orchard.

>Implying it was different before.
Aw, and here I am just coming to this forum for the Funhouse from time to time. It's not that the rest of the forum doesn't have its merits but the Funhouse was something that stood upon itself as a refuge for all those Maple players / trolls that just wanted to have a bit of fun or waste some time re-posting things they saw on other sites. Sure there wasn't much left in the way of originality but I think its unfair to just sweep it under the rug and say its not part of what Southperry is, because it just is. At the same time I don't see a point in a Funhouse without the freedom to say and do what people want with a few hardline rules about pornography and what have you. I just think there will be a massive void of fun and lightheartedness if the Funhouse were to die Sad
I want to say that while I would support modified version of the Funhause being put to place, I also want to say that I'm fine with Eos taking it down and not having it come back if people decide to pull this crap again. Tbh, I really won't miss it. Its all up to those who use the Funhaus regularly - especially those who are known to push the boundaries - to grow the **** up and learn some common sense. There's something called "privileges". Some people here don't know what that term means (and that's literally), and that's quite sad. Its all too obvious when people started sounding off on Eos about taking the Funhaus down initially.

tl;dr - emphasize responsibility and maturity. Some of the stuff that people post on the old Funhaus makes me want to puke. Its like dealing with 8 year olds without a mind.

For once, I agree with Sarah.
I have a new name proposal:

Eastasia.

Actually could we just get that as a filter for 'funhouse'?

Victory gin for all.
That's okay but Eastasia is better.

Especially if you switched it out with Eurasia every few months.
What the Funhouse?
MetaSeraphim Wrote:What the Funhouse?

Exactly.
Someone's just acting very childish over the whole thing. Removing it because it's a stain on the forum is one thing, trying to convince people the stain doesn't exist and never did's another.
What an eyesore.

I'd also like to hear the reason for the censor. It's pointless and more than a little annoying.

Funny, I don't see the joke.
