READ FOR UPDATES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

[honeylemon]

Please please please please remember the new guidelines are NOT TOU. Modding over there will be based on the same TOU as before.

FFS don't report shit that is against the "guidelines" unless it is also against the old TOU. None of the mods left want to have to weed through a billion reported posts that are "abuse according to the new guidelines"

If you do see something that is nasty and goes against the guidelines and you think a mod or admin needs to know about it, PM a mod or even better, tag BM.

[orangepickle]

If that's the case, I don't really get the point of those guidelines then - I mean I know "guidelines" are just that, not "rules" - but they were not presented as such

[scattered]

So what is the point of the guidelines? Just more policing?

[Poppy]

So what you are saying is they are more like guidelines, not rules. Still shitty but not quite as binding. I'm not sure if I want to play there anymore anyway after how badly they treated everyone who has been loyal for years.

[orangepickle]

Surely those posts from last night are ban-worthy though, right? That woman is truly terrible.

[shmee]

Poppy I want that margarita or daiquiri or whatever it is that you're drinking


I hope you're not having to weed through a ton of BS this morning @honeylemon. As far as I saw, there was really only one person worth reporting last night

[Deleted]

I'm so confused then.

ETA: I've still never reported anything

[Starbuck128]

I didn't realize these were just guidelines. Some how that just makes everything that went down last night even more insulting.

[lauranicole91]

I'm officially confused. But still team "here". Huh?

She was banned, I just looked

[honeylemon]

Yes, the troll from last night was banned.

I've seen a few unnecessary things reported but I don't think I've seen the reporter over here yet.

And yeah, I have no fucking clue what the point of the guidelines is. Useless drivel.

Those margaritas were on a cruise to Alaska. They are responsible for helping us conceive Addie . I had at least two a day. I was loving it! Drink plan totally paid off for this lush!

[limad]

So we can still use taunting GIFs to those who are doing happy dances about people being banned?
i'm even more irritated about how many people were banned then

[saltyh2O]

@honeylemon - are you who I think you are...and can I say who I think you are? The mystery of the new username is still confusing to me (slow on the uptake today)


(clearly I can't figure out how the heck to tag anyone either..no @ symbol needed?)

[honeylemon]

I'm about to post a reminder thread about the TOU on May15 on TB. Please read it and please comment on it to keep it from being lost. If you comment, please say something other than "bump" or just punctuation.

Thanks, lovelies.

[honeylemon]

I've posted another update to the new guidelines on May15. That thread is open for discussion but if the trolls try to stir things up, do not engage. Set them to ignore if you need to.

Damn, not how we tag here. Off to read the help threads!

That is how we tag on here but some people changed their display name and you need to use the username. You can see it by hovering your cursor over it on the website. I'm not sure how you see it on the app. to tag honeylemon it's (@ ramy without the space)

honeylemon @irishtheatrechic‌

I know you guys feel like you have responsibilities to the members, obviously not TB or XO, so I want to thank you for still modding both boards.

I also want you to know if you want anything done/said/pointed out, without implication over there, that I don't mind since I'm fucking around anyway.

[marybeth]

Can we all change our avatars on TB to something to show protest/solidarity, or is that going to far?

Maybe a version of the banned member avatar that says something snarky.

Edited for clarity

[honeylemon]

@marybeth they're ban/delete/remove from existence happy over there right now, They'll probably just give everyone a generic avatar if people start doing that.

Do mods have their powers back?
