  • Hello Community, Yesterday’s outage began around 4 PM EST. We are still reviewing the full chain of events, but activating the Archive, which contains millions of posts, triggered a rebuild of our sea

  • this was so scary but it did force me to look at some job listings instead

Can someone please explain how the post cited below is warnable in Base? When there are people on this site (will not mention any names but we know who they are) whose sole existence is dedicated to trolling and the admin of this site has stated that trolling and flamebait is allowed in Base, I got warned for this post. Can someone please clearly explain the rules so we are not constantly subject to the whims and personal vendettas of biased mods and rules that are constantly fluid and everchanging and can be interpreted any which way whenever a mod wants to punish a poster they personally dislike? What does "harshly drag" even mean when Madonna gets called a pedo and Beyoncé illiterate in Base on the daily not to mention the endless daily Britney trolling? Ironically my post merely stated facts and wasn't making a personal judgement either way. Either set down a set of rules and follow them for everyone or just make it a free for all. Thanks!

Possibly, but thankfully she's the most successful and impactful female popstar in history (Guinness book of records) so she didn't need her side gigs to salvage an imploding career like certain fads. Sadly, even those fads have now been punched out of the game after back to back BOMBS and now have to lean on AI scams made by their boyfriends. Sad!

Reffering to Britney as "Bodybagney" isn't bannable

Reffering to Gaga as "TransGa" isn't bannable

Making fun of Hayden Panettiere's mothering skills when she just passed away isn't bannable either. You guys tighten up the rules because of outsiders who browse this forum, then tolerate this bull crap and justify ridiculous bans. LOL.

not exactly, but targeting users on a weekly basis could constitute a warnable offense.

ima let the other mods chime in, but everything i bolded in red weakens your argument.

why? bc you opened the door for us to be condescending or give no response at all lol. which will leave you more frustrated. im not invalidating your concern, theres just a better way to handle this.

keep the focus on yourself, not others. for example, if you deserved a raise at work, you wouldnt point out what your coworkers are doing; you keep focus on your own contributions to the team.

Just had a quick search, and from what I can see the last post using this term as a pjerorative (as opposed to just critiquing the term itself) was from June 2020 (where that user got told off by the Moderation account), so not sure where you're getting that from.

Again, I count 3 uses in the past 6 years, all of which are in SYG.

If you see something you thing requires moderator action, use the report function so that we can see it and action it if necessary. You are also not privy to every WP and moderation decision that takes place behind the scenes.

cant speak for everyone, but several insensitive comments involving death, transphobia, and body shaming toward female celebs have been warned. even the minor jokes are discussed and investigated by the team.

i take it you referring to a specific WP. so im happy to review it and coordinate with the mod who actioned it, if that would help?

It's because the posts were deleted. ScoripiosGroove has called Gaga "TransGa" around 3x and the 4th time he censored himself and said "*****Ga" instead

The user who literally said "BodyBagney" is the first post in this thread (Mitsokou)

I'm starting to think that individuals are taking actions on their own as opposed to the moderator team as a group going over these reports because there's no way in hell these users remain active while others do significantly less and get a ban.

Here @PenguinTim

Calling several near-death experiences "interacting with God" oh that's creative ijbol

but Bodybagney always loses!

Not to mention the amount of times ScorpiosGroove has said insanely racist things to @FrederickGa and it seems like they aren't reprimanded at all.

Why would that nickname towards Britney be tolerated just because it's SYG?

it shouldn't be. The same way transphobia shouldn't be tolerated which is why that one ASAP Rocky fan got banned for making transphobic jokes and applying his transphobia onto Madonna

Forgot his username but @KatyPrismSpirit remembers

Wait, @ScorpiosGroove is up to something again? That b*tch can't even handle a slight criticism for their "GOD". Weak ass b*sh.

All of his personal attacks aimed at you in SYG (which isnt permitted) because English isn't your first language and the mod team doing absolutely nothing. Including his sick nicknames towards Gaga.

I didn't even rack up 10 points but get banned because I have to defend my political views because of other members saying BULLSHIT only because I listen to Nicki Minaj. Not to mention the mod in that thread was instigating & exhibiting behavior I wouldn't expect from a moderator. VERY FRUSTRATING while other members say and do significantly worse.

Edited by SmittenCake

If another user is continuously being called illiterate because their first language isn't English, I'm allowed to raise concern.

If people are making "jokes" about Britney being in a body bag or Lady Gaga/Madonna being Trans (as a pejorative) I am also allowed to say something.

Me enjoying Nicki Minajs music & looks doesn't intertwine with my own personal social, economic, and political views and to think otherwise is beyond juvenile and immature.

How about this:

I personally tag a handful of members on this forum who stan the "good" pop stars, yet maintain their own ass-backwards world views. I can tag members who think Kesha is a liar, Angelina Jolie is a liar/homewrecker, Brad Pitt apologists, Zionists, pro-war, pro far right movements as opposed to Leftist movements among many other stances that are WRONG. But it's okay since they're fanatics of [insert "good" pop star here]

@FOCK , as usual, wrote an insightful piece about these types of militant people. I'm done with the concern trolling & actions need to be taken into people who continuously smear others.

I understand and I value your input. At the same time, it always feels like I am chasing rules people are making up on the spot or interpreting at will. The goalposts are constantly moving. It's not even the points themselves it's just that I'm actually really good at following rules when the rules are clearly outlined.
