listen birdie, I guess some people here already told you that but I think you're taking this incident far too personally. I can get why you were pissed your post was deleted, but you're blowing it out of proportions. you need to choose what to spend your energy on wisely. I know many people here have bad blood with you, but I'm saying this as I feel completely neutral- this could've ended in a happier, faster and easier way. apologizing and compromising over these kind of things doesn't mean you're going back on your word, it just means you're mature enough to understand that this is petty stuff to get so, so serious about. Tuuba in the end was founded to have a chill, small community of the "oldfags" (and some newer people as well of course) and of course that this kind of drama is bound to happen because everyone knows everyone, but mate, it's been a goddamn year- that's dragging it far too much.
the funniest thing is all this was triggered by me just posting a link to the forums
I (and everyone else off tuuba as far as I can tell) really don't care about him to the degree he seems to think

anyway

Drama I can handle, but not being in a toxic environment where I have to self censor or get my posts deleted. You think going back on my word and me apologising for something I'm not sorry about would change anything? I doubt it. There is no reason why I'd want to go back, I have more freedom to post over here, no reason for me to go and suck up to people I don't like.

Basically, there are two things that need to happen before I'd post at Tuuba again:

-ITT would have to be for all content, and no content, such as political stuff, should be banned from there
-forum policy should be decided by votes, not by one guy (IppE) deciding whatever he wants himself

well, enjoy your time here then. I get your idea, but it's literally his forums, he's free to do whatever he wishes to do. whether people stay or not is up to them

If you actually wanted the forum to be run democratically then you could probably do it. Draw some analogies from unions. If you don't want to, then we have nothing to talk about.

Are there any forums that are run democratically? Where they literally elect mods or admins.

All I'm really talking about it have the users have a vote on forum rule and policy changes. It makes more sense on a forum with like less than 20 active users.

excuse me sir but literally what does your response have to do with what I wrote you

okay yes, I agree on that idea as well but it throws me back to my initial point - his forums, his rules (and that means he can decide in what way they're agreed upon as well- all by himself or the whole userbase). if people disagree with the rules that were set or the way there were set, well, they are free to leave.
B1rd
Just because he can do whatever he wants, doesn't mean that's the best way to run a forum. With a small community and a small group of friends, you don't want one guy to strut around as overlord because he was the first one to get the server up and running. If a majority of the userbase wanted to decide things democratically, then do you think IppE would object to that? Maybe, I don't have a high opinion of him, but maybe not. That's why I brought up unions, because union members don't own the property of the businesses they lobby, yet they can get their way through negotiation and boycott.

cliques form even in smaller social groups tho, which would become voting blocs
abraker
Democratic policy voting works best if you have confidence that people are smart enough to make correct choices and voting is secure enough not to be influence by parties the voting is not targeted for.

It's easy to have trust issues on the internet. It would work if all who are voting put effort in to making their community better. Not many want to ruin something they put time and effort into.

I was in a discord server like that once, where community managers were chosen by popular vote. I think they also had low key mod powers in message deletion and setting usernames, but nothing else
unfortunately for them, I was also super pissed at the person who ran the discord server (they disliked me but didn't know my new username and thus didn't know I was there), so I ran for office, got in by some subtle vote manipulation, then sent screenshots to one of my friends about what that person was saying about them and their discord server in the private officials channel (it was some proper petty shit, I believe a phrase used was "autismo blasting")
unfortunately they then sent the screenshots to that person going 'oh is that what you really think of me' and I got caught out eventually, but it was very funny to see how badly the person flipped out and started suspecting every single person in the group

is just internet why you have to be mad

Have you considered that not everyone is worth helping?
DJ Enetro
No, because I believe that everyone can get better if they try.

You can expect people not to do what you expect them to do and still guide them to what is right.

What if it is apparent they aren't going to try though?

Well at least tell him/her what is right and the reasons behind it, after all not all people are smart enough to look it up for themselves. Then leave that person alone and try to have fun with him/her.

This is a really important thing to learn in life. @Enetro, pay close attention to this sentiment, it's a valuable and radically different perspective to your current one.

I don't know who he is and I honestly say I don't give a shit. There are innumerable more people worthy of commemoration. How about for one, the man who saved human civilisation as we know it from a nuclear holocaust? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanislav_Petrov

Happy thanksgiving! 🎉🎉

Thanks.

On another note, is it just me or so embedded YT videos take longer to load than the ones on the official site?
