absolutely this.

having a private forum has some value. everyone should just have a button to activate it, though. "turn on The Garbage Bin"

I like tgb, but it's just a small clique, as are our numerous Skype groups, etc. it just happens to be located within these message boards. let everyone in, and then let the panel decide who's worthy to sit at the lunch table.

overall, this is a non-issue. I will never post about this again ever ever ever ever. ever.

I'd like to comment on this, but I really am out of the loop when it comes to TGB, especially since its more recent infrastructure was created by Sprite-, who is currently far too busy to moderate the site anymore. I have no clue why he did it; maybe it was for shits, maybe something else. I always found TGB to be mysterious in that way.

lol attractive we don't care about your summary of the feud between you and A2P

post the PMs. we all want to see

[MrGiggles]

I imagine TGB went private because of concerns about shitty users making a shitty forum way shittier than was absolutely necessary. You have to find the Goldilocks Shit Ratio (GSR)

I like the "opt-in, get kicked later" approach. Innocent until proven guilty and all that.

I never understood why he did it either. He didn't really post much in the garbage bin in the years leading up to the auction. It came out of nowhere. I remember he implied that the mod position was going to be temporary, but apparently it wasnt? The whole auction thing seemed like a big joke.

but the credits spent were non-refundable, so the auction results must stand

If you really want to argue this, half of those credits were given to the winner by other people, many of whom didn't even post in the garbage bin much. If anything, the mod position should be rotating, not fixed for the rest of eternity. What makes the auction winner deserving of lifetime TGB mod? The fact that an admin decided to have an auction on a whim? I really dont think there was much merit in the auction in the first place.



Also, the auction thread was made during a time when there were all sorts of weird auction threads going on in TGB. It was pretty much "the biggest auction thread" of the auction thread trend. I dont think that the results should stand forever. It was implied that the person would be paying for the mod position for a short time, similar to how people were paying credits to be red or green in prochat for a couple days.

thing is he's been proven guilty on way more than one occasion and continues to disrespect every administrative figure on here. Anyways, I'm not letting you in Attractive, because most of your posts/threads will be either this, or some dumb shit regarding "SMELLY FARTS XDDdddddDddDdd lick my butthole" and all that.

top isn't in because of his past harrassment via PM's to aperson and several other members on here a couple years back.

dragonmegaxx and cyr aren't in because of their constant need to say "IM A FURRY LOLLLLLLLLLLLLL u all suck" like 99% of the time

akkai isn't in because of blatant disrespect towards a gban

everyone else (and I mean literally, everyone else) can join freely even if they're not that great of a poster because at least they aren't infuriating.
wv feel free to make a dramatic reading of this, id love to hear it

[Crazyjayde]

Let him in already. If he screws up, it won't be much energy wasted. With the amount of insight the guy offered as of late, I'm sure he's past what he done.
We certainly don't need the TGB to be VIP, cut some slack for a while.

Edit: By the way Attractive, actual serious reasoning, what do you see in the TGB that makes you want to come back with such strong determination?

I have a garbage bin here at my house. Sometimes I go in it, but I am banned from it too.

I'm going to ignore the fact that all of your reasons are bogus and focus on the merit of your position as TGB mod.

What do you have to say about my post directly above yours regarding the auction thread?

Well first off, I have a lot of old threads in tgb that i am unable to view. I like to look at old things i have written sometimes. There are a lot of things in tgb, I can barely remember them all and it would be nice to have the freedom to look at some of my old posts. I also would like to post in the garbage bin because it's not as restrictive when it comes to what constitutes misbehavior as other parts of the forum are. I just want a place to be silly and write random things, maybe even post pictures i made.. idk the garbage bin is a nice place for that kind of stuff.

That snarky "I'm holier than thou" attitude isn't helping btw

I just wanted you to address some of the points i made in the referred post. Specifically this question:

What makes the auction winner deserving of a liftetime TGB mod position?
