that thread ruled! most messageboards and members play it way too safe, good to see some people stepping it up.
i had a friend in high school who had a theory that he seriously 100% believed, that the internet was created on the down low as a means for the elite of society, i.e. senators, ceo's, etc... to distribute pornography to one another. according to him, word got out somehow, and so those same elite turned it into the information superhighway to cover their asses. weird. back on topic, this message board is great! i love the lack of drama and silly rules.
i dont know how much longer i have either. i have recently been sent pm's by the powers that be over at KR that i am not good for the community and am walking a fine line. whatever the fuck that means. god bless them and their cheap ass toys
It's the f-ing white belt mafia over there. It's stuff like this, among many other things, that makes love this board the it's people more and more everyday.
Is now the time for a 'western' vinyl forum to be started? Thats not affiliated with any artist or store? because KR is turning into Germany 1939.
hahaha! thanks bro! i think they are just mad that i advertise it loudly every time they fuck something else up. i dont have all the time in the world to post over there anymore. but i think i will just kick up my level of sarcasm a bit. push the envelope
I was kind of working towards it and Mark (letter pressed) nicely asked me to stop. So I will stfu until they ban someone else.
I must be missing all of the good shit over there. and what was the Dr T/Natural Terminator incident? I miss everything.
Mark is a good guy...too bad he has to try to keep things in line over there... that board has gone waaay downhill over the past 6 months...not to mention the terribly long load times to jump between pages... KR's Big Baby Board for the Overly Dramatic (that's 3B OD, for short!) thank the dark lords of vinyl (& Super7!) for RFSO!
You do realize that at least two of us filthy Mods are also members here. And thanks scotty. It's great that things run so smoothly over here. Unforunately with over 4200 members on KR's board, and a good third of those just there to stir up shit or sell phones, it's a little bit harder to manage and keep civil. Blaming the rules or the Mods for the problems of the board is pretty short-sighted.
I don't think anyone has a problem with the mods but the rules are stupid. Things have gotten worse since the new rules were posted. Like I said, I feel bad for the mods, I wouldn't take the job. I think blaming KidRobot make more sense than blaming/banning collectors.
There are plenty of people that have problems with the Mods. There's constant second-guessing on why someone got a rep, or got banned, or why this thread was moved. That goes directly to what the Mods do. For the record. Brainless and WTK have not been banned. 3 reps means you can't post. We can't ban people from the forum. Also, WTK received one rep for his Star Jones stuff, but the others were for badgering other board members, and continuing to flame. We may not like the rules, hell I don't like all the rules, but the board is part of KR's business so they are doing what they see fit. Kids are members of the board, thus the restrictions on language, they don't want ebay links, etc. It's their call. If it wasn't tied to a business entity it may be a totally different experience. It can still be a vital and useful tool, just depends on how people choose to use it.
Nothing really - I was looking for a Japanese Toy store the thread was talking aobut so I typed in the name of the store and .co.jp and up popped a Japanese kiddie "porn" site. I thought it was ironic and posted the link and then Natural Shithead started calling for my banning. Isaac simply deleted the link and gave me a polite warning. Natural T said he would not post again on here (at least under that name I guess). See nothing to it. Thanks to Isaac for running a semi-self governing community. It is much appreciated.
post a minimum age requirement of 18 so we can say whatever the fuck we want to! And a stupidity limit of five violations for being moronic...(that's one for me!)... it is their sandbox, and they can try to keep the cats from crapping in it, but there are a lot of kitties in the neighborhood!!!
We get some toys every once in awhile. Actually, Mods were getting toys for a long time before I got any. I didn't know they were sending stuff out until someone sent me a message and asked if I'd received such and such. I was like, "No, I haven't gotten anything." I wasn't really expecting anything, but since they were sending the other Mods things I figured I'd better get in on it.
yup, i fully realize that. i actually think about 4 mods from KR are members over here i never blamed the mods or the rules of that board. just stating what i was told, and that i am supposedly bad for the community over there. so be it.
