I seriously have a hard time believing that people would be afraid to post to ILX for fear of being SB'd when only a handful of people (all of whom deserved it in one way or another) have ever acutally been SBd. That is just ridiculous and makes me think people are exaggerating the SB system and what it entails/results in.

i just really dislike the whole literally casting people out aspect of it all - if i were SB'd it would suck but i know i could definitely handle it, but it seems to hit others harder. i'm glad we've done away with permabans but i really think we ought to reconsider 30 day SBs as well, it just seems really cruel and unnecessary given the offenses most have gotten it for, and it seems to me like a temp mod-thread ban would suffice in most cases. i'd actually be a lot more OK with SB if it were like for a week instead of 30 days, i think that seems much more fair; all of us post here every damn day as it is so it's not like a week would be a slap on the risk.
as for improving the SB experience, many of us have suggested various reasonable things that could be implemented, none of which have been put into place or even seriously considered, such as a running SB count that you could check on the 'boards' page or something (to his credit forks and maybe iirc WmC have taken it upon themselves to email people who've amassed at least 40 (no, i haven't gotten one of these, lol)), or a notification when you are SB'd, and a way to see the post for which you were SB'd. another idea could be for the SB'ers to leave a comment of some kind, either to the SB'ee or to the mods, or both. i realize this would entail some more coding for the admins who i'm sure are busy as it is. i also strongly dislike the anonymity of SB, but that's kind of a personal thing i guess. it seems really cowardly to me - it seems like the person being SB'd should know who is accusing him or her of ruining the board for someone else, and why
for the most part i think ppl itt are kinda of the mind that it won't happen to them, other ppl should just get over it, which is kinda sad and pretty much counter to the way most ppl on this board ime go about thinking about other (admittedly more macro and important) issues

lol pwn
deal w/it (-B
kev k, ime, carries challenging opinions but does it pretty well
The reason a lot of ppl think sb won't ever happen to them is because it won't. I'm a dick but i've avoided it, for instance. There is a major behavioural input from the individual racking up 51 sb's and even if it came as a surprise to them, from any reasonable POV it shouldn't have
That's obv just a ~dude's~ theory though and we're just callous brutes telling ppl how to feel so y'know caveat emptor

Some real great stuff on 88, before real ilx crashed--lots of bitching and complaining and zinging.

does that happen tho? (xp at lex)it's mainly people talking about their mornings or posting fb stuff
i like the idea of being able to include a message when you sb someone, feel like this could be the ultimate secret board

Not just horseshit - that's p much a flat out lie unless there are a whole bunch of 77 threads that I haven't read but I don't think that's actually the case.

btw if Rolo T is who I suspect he is then I think I know which thread he's referring to and would like to point out that it was not a 77 thread. If he's not then I apologize and pls carry on etc.

some ilxors initially took the opportunity to use 77 to snark on other ilxors who weren't yet on there didn't they? certain people (all since long gone whether mod-banished or sb'd into reform) in a place with that 'secretive' context would inevitably do this. a bit like what happened on noise for a while. once enough regulars joined it and warnings about what was/wasn't acceptable were in place this died out soon enough. that is my recollection.

also there's a rule that you can't talk about posters not on 77, on 77.

our recollection of the past is so faint. we must consult the ILX griot about the happenings in the before-time of the never-world.

RT - It's true - that thread that I think you're referring to isn't the nicest but it's not on 77. It happens. I just don't like when ppl think 77 is like some elite bitch fest. It's more so ppl can post details about their jobs and stuff without worrying about them getting found. Also, tits and Mark Ruffalo.
