Blah blah blah SB is an infringement of my human rights blah blah

keep it in here, guys

I did say "parc the sarc", I'm out.

list yr favourite posters who shd be allowed to express themselves without intimidation in this thread

Mark this isn't solely addressed to you by any means but hey feel free to SB yourself from the thread

funny how u adopt conservative rhetoric to defend such a brutal & injust institution just saying

i'm gonna keep posting on the other thread tho in case my comrades fail to open a started by a user w/ such a silly name

np.

i'm glad that you're not falling to my level of cheap, provocative clusterfuckery kevin. good work.

I don't really care whether SB is an infringement of my human rights or not tbh, I just find it kinda snide and sneaky. But then I suppose if I see a thread with some nutjob offensive stuff on it I just go to another thread.

tbf a lot of posters are open and honest about when they've SB'd u for that

If it's all out in the open, then fair enough, it's a bit telling tales to teacher otherwise

u're thinking of it wrong, essentially it's a venting steam button coupled with a mild but sadly ineffective quality control element

anyway, when we are allowed to vent it out in the open a slew of much-loved posters were life-banned

unless u think it's healthier for us all to be calling each other wankers to our faces instead of cooling down by quietly and repeatedly clicking the SB button

quietly and repeatedly clicking the SB button

You couldn't make that any more sinister sounding if you tried

i love a challenge!

I warned you Mr. Bond, now you have forced me to quietly and repeatedly clicking the SB button

NV has surely got the best attitude out of all of us w/r/t SB, apply liberally and apply often

I don't like the SB system because I can never seem to get any SB's.

and always choose factor 51 xp

lol how did this kick off again?

Nobody gets sb'd without both reason and fair notice, and the consequences are pretty light

What's the problem

Mark Grout started it, then ran away, sir

it was them that ran away!

(oops)

lol

I created a sandbox acct to sb people

I'm not a playa I just sb a lot

Me an yr girl mad tight coz we sb a lot

unless u think it's healthier for us all to be calling each other wankers to our faces instead of cooling down by quietly and repeatedly clicking the SB button

if ilx riles you up so much that you try to get posters banned b/c you don't agree with them then you should probably quit ilx

Do people try to get posters banned b/c they don't agree with them? Seems unlikely to me.

i'm not sure what else people sb for these days...?

i agree with you, i don't think it's an "injustice" or anything dumb like that, just that it is underhanded and kinda middle school

I assume people get sb'ed for being overtly offensive or aggressive, not just for having different opinions

wonder which sb'd posters rolo would like to offer us as examples of the 'disagreement theory'

Didn't Geir get sbed once?

Geir has said offensive stuff on numerous occasions

Doubt he's ever been SBed for defending melody and harmony against all-comers

burt_stanton and capn lorax have also been banned, not sure what kind of threat they posed

wonder which sb'd posters rolo would like to offer us as examples of the 'disagreement theory'

i dont know who actually gets banned but most of the sb's on lorax were a good example

would you classify what geir does as mere disagreement, tho?

P sure you could argue for it as trolling, tho obv whether it's intentional or not is v debatable

lorax about to blow the roof off the biggest conspiracy of our time iirc

he had to be stopped

51 was an inside job

Somebody was sb'ing him from that grassy knoll, I'm sure of it

tbh i'm not really convinced any ILX posters are dedicated trolls, I just wonder whether or not anyone's actually thought to themselves "i'm glad we sb'd that guy"

oh ok we're only talking about posters that are a 'threat' now, like if lj were in the bushes with a camera or s/t

Geir's pretty dedicated, apparently he was doing it before ILX even existed

I believe Geir is saying what he believes to be true.

And he's been saying it for 20 years.

... yes, he's never needlessly provocative, is he? (xp)

Is 'provocative' a bad thing?

I mean, do you really care if I think Radiohead are overrated, let's say?

It's sb, not challopbutton!

provocative is not a bad thing

annoying is

OK. Who SB'ed the whole sandbox yesterday?

the Dr Who crowd are pretty easy going as long as you hate any Dr Who from the last 10 years

one grump hates the last seven years but is correct about five of them; one hated last year then rewatched it and cried tears of pure delight, then hated this year; everyone else is p much like whatever whatever

was sort of joking but i find the thread v. hard to read cos of mad nitpickery and begrudgement

in the absence of sb what's the recommended procedure, i know 'BAN x' threads were en vogue there for a while but i mean i think we ought to have contingency plans for this unsettling sandbox wastelandscape

BAN DARRAGHMAC

that's fair enough abt the Who thread rly, and I apologise as ever to any lurkers whose lurking experience I may have personally shitted up by either aggressively un-nitpicking or telling ppl to stfu, except Pleasant Plains' Schrodingerian brother, SBing that dude in advance

hay guise have you noticed that SB stand for Sand Box? Maybe when ppl get barred they can just come and chill out here for 30 days, seems p cool

sometimes i yearn for membership to a secret snarky & malicious club. not necessarily on ilx, or even on the internet, just in general

i blame satc

ew

lol!--it's true that 77 in its current incarnation is kind of gross, though! imo it has both the best & worst threads in all of ilx

SB may help prevent threads such as

is OK Computer a terrible album y/n [Started by that wiener from Emearlds (step hen faps) in December 2011, last updated 3 minutes ago by C.K. Dexter Holland on I Love Music] 124 new answers POLL closes: December 31 (in 1 week)

and posters such as

C K Dexter Holland

imo. just sayin

C K Dexter!!!!

He's a star!!!!!

ckd should not be SB'd, come on

he adds valuable flavor to the typical politics thread cycle.

loooool

Oh man dogs humping and just not quite getting it right is so sad. Benson always tries to make sweet love to one of his toys but it's too short and he winds up just desperately air humping and it's the most pathetic sight. Poor lil dudes.

humping is hard

when humping its hard

signs u've been on ilx too long

lol we have flag post now

question is, who monitors?

you all may be please to know that there is ONE flagged post!

not much of a scandal, though. it apparently was a test.

a test of the emergency flag post system

are those still done btw? the emergency broadcast system? this is only a test...

we had warnings a month or so ago about this huge emergency broadcast system test... i didn't really understand how it was any different than a normal test... but we got dc alert emails about it for like 3 days leading up to it. v weird.

thread makes me v v curious about the ilx personas hiding behind sandbox masks
