Extreme mod crackdown.

I'm so sick and tired of everyone ripping on everyone else, and then people claiming what a fantastic place NS was a few years ago.

If everyone dislikes all the hate so much, maybe we should do something about it. Is it out of the option for the mods to crackdown really hard and ban people who spew completely un-needed hate? the ban would only be for a few days but hopefully people would just regulate themselves because of it.

And i'm fairly certain it's a very clear line between un-needed hate and people voicing their opinion.

I realize it's a ridiculous idea, but what if NS could return to the place it once was for all you veterans.

well i'm sick of people who joined in 2008 rambling about how it sucks now. it just gets old when you expect to click a thread and read about sick stuff, but instead it's just senseless ramble/hate/other bs.

A lot of forums have a profanity filter in place, so you have to re-read your post to make sure you can get your opinion across without using it - so I think this would help. If people reread shit, maybe they wouldn't be so hateful right off the bat.

could be a reward system, so that a mod mark a person down if they do something bad and they get negative marks, with enough marks that person could be ip banned. or when a person writes something that contributes in a good way the mod marks him down and after enough rewards that member could return those points for some type of whatever /runonsentence

Its not an excuse but it is understandable that it happens. There's plenty of useless shit in the winter but it goes unnoticed of how much more ski content there is. During summer kids have nothing better to do than to sit at home post crap on NS all day.

I'm all for the mod crackdown on the unnecessary hate, and excuse me while I'm a huge hypocrite, but


Eheath, you should shut your fat fucking mouth unless you're talking about a camera. You're obviously a fucking dumbass (You're on what, your fifth year at fucking U of U, which is a joke of a school, btw), and all you do is spew useless shit around the forums and cry about how good this site was 6 years ago. Nobody gives a flying fuck that you've been a member since 2004 or however long you've been here. I think it's YOU who should suck it up and accept that it's never going to be what you think NS used to be looking through your rose tinted nostalgia goggles. You're never going to be anything but a pro ho bitch with a camera.


inb4 karma rape, ban, etc, I don't give a fuck. Peace, fuckers.

hahah i never complained about the site you dip shit, i was commenting that NS hasn't been the "good" ns since like 2005, that was all. I think you're just a little mad about something, but i cant put my finger on it. And im going to one extra semester of school OMG maybe because i took 12 credits every winter. If i actually took 15-17 credits every semester i would have graduated. I also got a minor and switched majors my jr year. Anymore ignorant statements? You my friend, are the dumbass, kindly go fuck off.


ps if making money doing something i love, then ill be pro ho bitch with a camera all day. I choose to film, that is unless im getting paid. Again, kindly go fuck off.

Did you notice how that was in quotes and intended to make fun of stupid people on newschoolers? I am a Canadian lawyer, but yes, I do know your constitution. I do not, however, know the sound a post makes when it goes over your head, so please let me know.

i think it would work. with the alias issue, make it known that banned members creating alias' will have a more severe ban/ip ban. and i agree with OP, i never thought id say this but im getting a little sick of nsg now, a good portion of the threads are not enjoyable whatsoever. its sometimes amusing, but a lot of people dont know where the line is. might have to move on back to m&a and see what ski gabbers all about..

Sage, NS is just like real life: lead by example, and maybe people will follow when they realize the benefits of what you're doing.

NS has the capacity to be amazing. It still is, but that depends on the kindness, integrity, ideas, and contributions of its members. Laughter is great. Solid posts matter.

It's members like you that keep me coming back to NS. I've been lurking on NS for about 5 years now (but made an account a year ago) and NS has never really changed in my opinion. Yes, there is some spam, pointless threads, and some idiots on, but I feel that the quality of the site is great. It's easy to get caught up in the trolls and the younger members' stupidity, but there are a lot of good people here.

I feel ya on this. It's an excuse, but a very poor one. People on here obviously have no people skills and would not say any of their hate face to face with a person. I have been subject of hate for the 9 years or so on this site. IP banning would be so clutch to clear the threads of goons clogging threads with hate and useless BS.

oh quit your crying you pussy, if you can't go on the internet for an hour without getting your feelings hurt maybe you should find something else to do

as for the rest of this thread, there is no need for an extreme mod crackdown. there is no "hateful" thing beyond the rules already in place that you can categorically ban people for.. people are going to share their (sometimes retarded, misguided, stupid, misinformed, awful, terrible, no good, very bad) opinions on the internet, deal with it. can't go asking for IP bans every time your feelings get hurt or someone posts something retarded

this site has changed a lot over the years and there may be more young idiots but if you think there wasn't just as much mindless hate back then, your memory is shaky

oh and the only way to make it the "place it once was" is a time machine. you cant just magically evaporate 150,000 members, 6+ years of progression and a billion dumb pictures with captions on them.
