XLT overhaul

The thoughts for this post come from my post here.

I have no problems with the Mods that we actually have. The
ones that actually show up and are an actual part of the
community but come on. Some of those guys listed dont even
post here and dont even show up. Like havent been here in
forever.

Really, its a no brainer.

Time for bed! I love you all.

Now someone do me a favor and post pics of asian girls or
something. NO FATTIES I_X_TEN!!!!

Didnt see that one. I'd really like to see people express
opinions here.

There has been a growing number of people leaving XLT and
complaining that it is a "shithole".

If people keep leaving then there will be no one. If there
is no one supporting this community then it seems as though
phobia is wasting his money.

personally i think the problem is just down to a handful of
people bringing down the quality of the board. all we need
is constant moderation throughout the day. i think i said,
mods from different timezones (a couple of
americans/canadians & a couple of europeans would be fine
imho) someone who is here all the time, someone with a sense
of humour, but knows when to draw the line, someone who
gives a shit about the music, someone who everyone likes,
someone who will put their foot down and stamp on the heads
of trolls. i'm sure & i hope this is just a glitch, rather
than a downward spiral, i really do.

All other disturbances were ebbs and flows

temporal.

I think some of the "trolls of old" need to return and show
these young fuckers the ropes.

Yup. I swear half the time i am on there are no Moderators
on the list.

Also i am not pushing for the New Seriousness. I want
to make that clear. I want all the sillyness and clever
humor that makes XLT great to stay. But its hard to find a
vagina beautiful when it is covered in sores. The sores must
first be removed.

:D

this is so tedious now. messageboards have moderators to
make sure there aren't incidents like these. that's their
function. this board, which is exceptionally prone to
trolling, has no active mods watching over it. really, i'm
sick of all of this. if it's just going to be a bunch of
trolls running the place, there's no reason to stick around.

Sometimes i think that could help. I do know that the last
time i spoke with JAroen he was busy with school. Its been a
while though. I would like to see alexfarmer return. Sky was
always a fun one to have around.

When you think about it Skyfarmer was more tame the JAroen.
Plus i think his original account was banned for BS reasons.

hear hear! its all about striking the balance. New
Seriousness
will turn this place sterile and cold.
people will just leave. what was going on with the thread
(last week i think) where pomme was going on about 'who
wants to be a mod'? nothing has surfaced from that, seems
like an excercise in the pointless.

i hope your vagina gets better soon! :P

We seriously have no trolls here. With the exception of a
few dipwads (lol @ dipwads). I wouldnt even consider CT a
troll, trolls tend to have a cult following if they operate
correctly. There has never been one supporter of CT.

there are more things that could use an overhaul... for
instance, maybe finishing the design could be good.. it's
just that phobs seems to want to do it himself even though
he hasn't really got the time. He should let someone else
finish it. If the design itself is done, all that remains is
html code...

I think a mod or two elected by the people would be good...
he'd definately command more respect than one who's been
chosen behind the scenes.

Yes! Yes indeed!

We must prevent the regulars leaving. It hurts. If all the
fun leaves this place then it will be no different from the
MU board. No offense to anyone there but it is a tad more
serious.

This place made me join because the humor was peaked when i
joined and was lurking (01-02). It was something else and
the running jokes were great. Over time it has dwindled.

Although i am aware of ebbs and flows, this time is
unprecidented in XLT history!

Can we keep things peaceful please? You may consider the
people in your thread trolls. Perhaps 5 or 6 of you consider
me a troll. However, I am willing to stop the unfunny humour
threads, post here only when sober, and refrain from doing
things that may annoy people. I haven't had issues during
the day either. (And no, I'm not trying to individualize
this, I am only mentioning myself as you mentioned the
thread you created last night.)

Yeah. Trolls (in the classic sense) have a personality that
they may try to get across. While CT does not.

Example: MayorMcToilet, ChickenPasteman.

even the profiles contain humorous things that tie it all
together....

example: ChickenPasteman's homepage was KFC. The little
details like that are great.

Most people knew that CPM was a multi but no one cared
because it added variety.

This board will not function correctly if it is all serious
music conversation. There are not enough artists that are
worth discussing if you want to keep it on topic. The genre
of IDM is too small.

If you make threads and people attack you and you dont mind
it then it is not a bad thing. Its a good way to release
tension on a personal level and preventing "blowing up" in
the real world.

I view those threads as sometimes theriputic.

Although i personally would have closed two of those that i
was around here for. The other 1 or 2 i felt were legit

NO!!! NO!!!

The thing is that horsefactory gets it. That kind of stuff
is really the norm here. It keeps the balence. Things cannot
be the same.

You have to admit, when dog_belch gets all hot and bothered
about something.... he can bring someone down in the most
gentlemanly way. The way he structures sentences is a joy to
read.

Not trying to kiss his ass or anything but i do appreciate
it when people act foolish and he "tells it like it is" but
in his own style. That man should get a badge or something
