Site has been pretty terrible the last couple of days, incredibly slow to load anything.

It's been worse in the past, don't get me wrong, but it's noticeable.

My Internet's been terrible as of late, so I haven't noticed that I didn't chalk up to "For fuck's sake, you piece of shit router". You say the problems are in loading anything, but have you noticed it being particularly bad at specific times?

Same... I've noticed it being really bad on my Iphone... but given my internet issues lately I'm not sure I entirely bought it was wholly the site... but it is noticeable on my PC when the net doesnt seem to be crappy.

I was told my signature was too big (before I was asked to remove it because lol) and so I downsized it immediately.

Yet I still see people with the same big ass signatures they had before.

Clearly, it's not important to site staff to ensure everyone is following these rules. Cool. I think that's just awesome.

The gestapo ambushed me in my own in-box to tell me to shorten my list of quotes. So it's still more than just you.

This may be a weak spot in the rules, since there's the in-built clause of "Eh, we may or may not enforce it.".

If you think someone's signature is abusing that leniency, let me know.

PM me their names and I'll ask them to downsize them.

You choose the right one to get rid of.

Hammer is banned for his language but Yoggy isn't? Laughable.

Yoggy was told to tone down his commentary. He doesn't have a carte blanche.

We all know someone else who needs to do more than tone down their "commentary".

I just decided to pop in and see what this place had turned into, can't say I'm surprised. This place took relativism to Pilatus-like spheres while tolerating blatant hatespeech and hate-filled viewpoints for the longest time, small wonder that there's massive blowback from those elements on SoL when a mod actually decides to crack down.

Just speaking personally, I just stopped engaging or even reading here sometime in early 2016 because the vitriol from a few here was just getting too tiresome to deal with and was never really checked except in absolutely extreme cases. I know from several people that personally messaged me back in the day that they feel the same way, and they barely ever bother posting on SoL on said topics due to those same elements being constantly tolerated around here.

I approve of Cantus' stance and moving all remotely politics-related threads to the Halls is probably a good move for the time being. Apologies if this post necro's a more or less closed subject.

Funny, I had several people message me "back in the day" sharing how much of an insufferable cunt you were, and how it made them not want to post in said threads.

Apples and oranges, and all that.

Please stick to objective arguments. This is also not the place for your feuds.

I don't know what Hammer posted, as I've had him on ignore for the longest time, but I didn't post to point the finger at anyone in particular., nor to warm up personal conflicts. I myself have definitely lost my temper and patience several times in the past here, whether provoked or not is pretty much irrelevant.

I'm merely commenting on the moderating stance that was adopted in the past here, and its logical consequences.

Cute, except that hasn't stopped you replying to me in the past, when I've been "on ignore". Really makes you think...

Ok.

Despite the above bullshit, and Cantus' nonsense: This site has never been remotely close to /pol/ or whatever buzzwords their ilk want to throw at it.

Just because a few of us aren't shy about calling out the bullshit we see from Islam and BLM doesn't make it /pol/ - the same way just because Miffy/Mutter/Saranus/Yoggy link some truly vile Leftists garbage doesn't make it Dumblr.

This whole thing wouldn't have happened if Cantus didn't start banning shit because he fell on his ass that day.

Smoke, you too stick to objective arguments.
