I had to ban Poopper from /u/StandUpWindsor for a better user experience. Too late after the asstroll shit all over my post. Maybe we'll all have to have private subs for our projects if the rules can't be enforced.

With no rules I expect this place to slide to shit. I hope it doesn't. If it does my hesitancy to recommend it to other aware folks will increase.

I have a huge list of stuff I aim to do, locally and online, including start up a new video channel. So I'm going to pull way back anyway.

I totally fucked up with this post. It's my fault that I wasn't completely clear that this was about perpetually breaking the rules without consequences - NOT the fact that they are liars, authoritarians, and shills. Getting them banned is killing 2 birds with 1 stone. Instead they use censorship victimhood as a shield and suckers buy it.

I don't think you fucked up with this post. I think you are just being honest and expressing genuine things. I think you are one of the best parts of this place and I would be OK with banning a thousand socks and other trolls if it meant your content and your ideas grew and developed more clearly as a result.

Aw, shucks. Saved (for my ego, until the swelling goes down).

FYI: You're one of the good ones too. I'd add you to my friends list but you were already there a while ago. (I like to read the friends names in red first to see what kind of conversations are going on under posts.)

Cool! I did not know there was a friends thing here. I will check that out.

Go to any user's page and add/remove them or in here:
https://saidit.net/prefs/friends/

Then you can see only their posts or comments under:
https://saidit.net/s/friends/

And their name shows up red in conversations in dark mode. In light mode there's not much difference.

/u/d3rr, two recommendations, if it's not a chore:

  1. Differentiate "friends" in light mode.
  2. Add a third tab under /s/friends/ that links back to prefs.

If you're going to do either of those lemme know, and if not soon I can draft up a public service announcement to share info about this friends feature, and add it to the FAQ. Am I forgetting anything?

Excellent, said-it friend!
