I thought only one thread was throwing a shitfit.

    Right now, the biggest problem is something you can't see.

    You, Juan. You're the fucking problem.

    You never know if somebody's serious. TV Tropes' version of Poe's Law got you all fucked out of your system.

    Boo. I had a very sex, sleazy lingerie girl drawn on this Goggles page and it's all gone. :(

    THat took like 5 minutes to draw.

    While I believe we are disappointingly prone to drama for different reasons, I didn't think today was a big deal. Sotis gonna soto and something about MS Paint-esque porn.

    Did something get deleted, did I miss a thread somewhere, or is this one of those you-had-to-be-there things?

    I have no fucking idea how that was even considered a dramafest, at all. Nothing even bad happened, besides me drawing a dickgirl in the middle of the thread and grossing everyone out, and then somebody coming by deleting EVERYTHING people were drawing to be an ass.

    If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    And then there's all the flags raised.

    Why don't we all do a general mood lightening drive where we all go out and hug puppies?

    I see more darkness on this road.

    Oh yeah, and this:

    I'm kind of worried that I'm a large part of the problem if I can't see it to the extent the rest of you guys can.

    For some reason i'm not worried even though I can't see it to the extent others are right now either. >_>

    Only n00bs play snipers anyway.

    Anyhow, user turnover rate isn't that bad. For every problem poster v&'d or person dropping off the map we get a new one, it seems. Though they mostly lurk, yet that's to be expected at the start of community where all posters seem to know each other.

    Biggest problem factor is repetition: the drama is cyclical, posters with attitude problems are all internet archetypes we've seen a zillion times before, and you can pretty much predict which thread is going to cause a shitstorm precisely because it's a rethread, if you pardon the pun. This is tiresome for the mods and the userbase and gives newcomers the impression that we just don't learn.

    In the past I've sometimes expressed concern that mods are sitting on top of stuff too fast, but by now they have some experience with what needs to be deadlocked on sight(eg, any TVT complaint thread, any angst thread by the same user on the same day). It's better they err on the side of caution than the one-more-chance attitude often given to those cliché threads, imho. That can always be sorted once the nebulous 'the problem with IJBM' has sorted out.

    As an aside, many of you bros play NationStates, right? Ever looked at forum topics there? Read and feel how good IJBM is in comparison.
