    What are you talking about? They have to be approved first.

    Is the approval system an actual thing?  I thought we just automatically approved everybody.

    Nice Job Breaking It Bobby.

    Despite my pessimism, I kinda hope that no shitstorm will result.

    I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking.  I shouldn't have let them know it was me.

    It's a Wordpress blog.  If you visit them, they can see you.  Like with notedscholar on TV Tropes way back.

    At best we'll get hilarious troll-tainment, at worst they'll be shit and get banned.

    It'll be fine.

    Probably the latter.

    But I won't join any shitstorm. Especially after some... un-nice events today.

    Oh noes, I am not forgiven!  Whatever shall I do?

    I don't think they actually read my post, since they still think I was the one who banned them, but w/e.  On the up side, they posted their side of the story:


    1. We wrote articles about TV Tropes being nothing more than TGWTG cocksuckers.
    2. They made a thread about our hatred towards TGWTG
    3. Few people from TV Tropes wanted a fair argument about it.
    4. It had 45 pages of civil discussion, and mockery of a troper who writes Phineas and Ferb Fanfiction
    5. There was a general Busy Street Thread in place of it.
    6. BOO HIS AD HOMONYM ATTACKS
    7. People get banned.
    8. Civil Discussion is over, and will now be used as the reason we don’t go to other people’s websites and forums and talk to them. Because we’ll just get banned. Busy Street is all about saying things that would otherwise get you banned, even though you are giving an honest opinion of the site. It’s not about popularity, or trolling – it’s about saving the one thing that made the internet great – discussions, and opinions. Thanks for banning two people for trying to make peace with tropers.


    So, given that this all started with them insulting TV Tropes, I doubt we were ever going to be best buds anyway. Though it does look like we kinda wrecked any chance of us getting along at all, and I guess that's partly my fault. So, sorry about that.

    Oh, I thought there was a new thread.
    "We're like Fight Club."
    They'd love to think that, wouldn't they?

    The first rule of Fight Club is to not talk about Fight Club. 70% of the content of that site is people talking about Busy Street itself.

    Kichigai birthday!!
    The problem here is with the two people running both websites. Jordan doesn't want anything to do with Tv Tropes and Fast Eddie doesn't want anything to do with Busy Street.


    Why did I even make this post? It adds nothing. Buh

  • KhwarizmiKhwarizmi

    No reason why their sites should have anything to do with one another if neither of them is interested.

    Though I appreciate that must be annoying for people who are fans of both sites.

    You aren’t forgiven, you are just the dumbest fucking moderation this side of The Escapist. You are the reason moderation on the internet is pathetic, and it only leads to websites like ours to create this “drama”.

    So fuck off Bobby.

    Love,
    Busy Street


    Charming.

    To be fair, I have been pretty disorganised, which certainly won't have helped.  I should probably have read the thread the whole way through before reporting, but it's a bit late now.

    At least they said it with love.

    The funny part is you seem to be the most level-headed and reserved of all the mods; I can't remember the last time you actually brought the banhammer down on someone. 

    ^ In the great Internet stew, neither are we. 
  • KhwarizmiKhwarizmi

    Actually, I couldn't ban them from the site even if I'd wanted to.  Only Eddie and Janitor can do that.  Maddy and blackcat can ban you from the forums, the rest of us can only remove editing privileges.

    ^^That's why I keep saying it's not important, nothing of importance was lost. At all.
    ^Frankly, I'm disappointed you let them find out about this place.
  • KhwarizmiKhwarizmi

    I am sorry.  It was an honest mistake. :(  I forgot how Wordpress sites worked.

    They might have found it anyway, since Vorpy linked them, but I wish I hadn't attracted their attention like that.

    YO YO YO U CAN'T C ME BOUT TO SPIT SUMTIN' STOOPID!
    Well seems like you guys are being just as hateful as you're accusing us of being.  I'm surprised Fast Eddie doesn't ban you guys, maybe it's because you're hating on a site he doesn't like.


    But seriously,  I think this got blown way out of proportion.  Bobby doesn't need to apologize if he's not the one who banned me,  I think Eddie should because before this instance I was NEVER banned from TV tropes so I don't know where he pulled that bullshit from.  I think it's shit like that that gives TV Tropes a bad reputation.  That and the potential serial killers.

    Also Jordan misspells shit all the time.  I don't think he's dylsexic, I think he just doesn't spellcheck.
