Fuckin’ a…
How is this shit even a thing around here? Oh wait, that’s right. We have a shitty Admin and his wife determining how we all get to interact with each other. Creating ‘Like’ buttons and ‘Politics’ threads… pfft
The problem around here is not that there are certain subjects that “can’t be talked about”… it’s that conversations cannot be had WITHOUT CERTAIN PEOPLE…
We got a SMALL group of users on this forum who may be on this forum but are not a part of the community it truly tries to represent. They are to be ignored. And yet, we have no way of doing so.
This forum community has been neglected for too long and lacks even the most BASIC mechanisms to prevent or curtail trolling and griefing of its members. There are those that come here for all the reasons a Juggalo should, and then there are those who are only here to shit on it all; As if there is no tree that can be planted without these same assholes coming to pour bleach on it.
I’ll post it again for those that would like to see what BASIC means in almost every other community on the net:
Membership within this forums is a privilege, not a right. We expect all members to abide by directions given to them by the administrative and moderating staff.
General Rule of Thumb: Remember the golden rule; please treat others as you would wish to be treated by others within this community. We are all members here, we all wish to be treated nicely, and we all want to have a good time here.
Please Post with Purpose: Be advised, we do offer areas to blow off steam and generally horse around, but in areas that are meant to be serious, we wish for you to post with intent, rather than simply ‘up’ your post count. This helps weed out spam, keep discussions on topic and gets information out there quicker. This includes “bump” posts.
Hate Speech: No matter how we put it, hate speech will not be tolerated on this forum. The administrative team has the complete discretion to handle and suspend/ban any account that breaks this rule, regardless of standing within the community. Usage of words such as racist or hateful terms are generally meant to be used as a derogatory insult towards others. The context/appropriateness/negativity implicit with usage of such words can and will be taken into consideration, though it is 100% completely up to the Forum staff to handle offending accounts.
Trolling/Flaming/Bashing: Bashing, excessive trolling and general negativity is something this forum expressly wishes to leave out within this community, while we can understand general horsing around between members, we encourage the community to look out for one another. We enjoy and encourage joking, but we ask you keep it at a reasonable level. Please be mindful of what you say and how you treat others.
General Disagreements: Debates are going to happen, people will disagree. We ask you keep it civil and remember that everyone has an opinion, everyone has their personal experiences and not all of us are the same. We encourage in-depth analysis, point/counter-point debates, but we stress that you refrain from entering the land of hate speech and flaming/trolling. Passing that line is when staff steps in. What we’re saying is; be rational.
Usage of Forums
Introductions: All members who intend to post on these forums are required to post an introduction. Think of it as a way to get to know people here within the site. It’s a chance for you to get out there and be a part of this community.
Announcements / Stickies: Each forum and sub-forum present within the site will have their own announcements and stickies. Read them. Abide by them. Learn from them.
Account / Computer Usage: One Account. One Computer. We will not allow Alternate Accounts.
Avatar / Signature: Avatars have a set sizing, so that will take care of itself, but we ask that you keep signatures to one image per account. We ask you try to keep the signature image size to around 550×200. Anything deemed ‘too large’ at the discretion of the staff will be removed and a note will be left asking to change signature. You may add up to three lines of text on your signature as well. Shameless self-promotion of any product/service that you make money off of is asked to gain approval from the mod staff. NOTE: Admins/Mods will have specific avatars; no other user may use these, or a close approximation of these avatars as it helps with quicker identification.
Offsite Representation: A single text link on your signature is allowed to represent another forum, web-comic game or For-Profit organization. We ask you contact the administrative team for permission to post links on threads. Current Partners have separate forum sections in which they may post at their own discretion.
Private Messages (PM): We ask that private messages remain private, though if excessive harassment is being made, please contact the administrative or moderating team.
Alternate Accounts: Usage of Alternate Accounts by members is strictly prohibitive, even funny ones. While we do find them hilarious, most Alt accounts are generally designed to evade bans and harass members. Those accounts will be instantly banned and host accounts with them.
Forum Invasions: As zealous as forums are, the forum strictly prohibits anyone from planning or attempting to plan an invasion on another website. Permanent bans will be handed out to all offenders.
Illegal Software / Programs / Files: No Warez, no hosting, no links to pirated content, no links to content meant for For-Profit gain. Do not discuss illegally obtained material, do not recommend it. This content includes, but is not limited to: Programs, CD-Keys, key gens, cracks, music files (.mp3, .wav, etc.)
Excessive Username Tagging: Please refrain from tagging developers/admins/mods excessively to gain their attention. A PM will suffice, and if they are unable to respond, please do allow time. We ask that you please be courteous when talking to the team as we receive a large quantity of messages each day.
Double/Multiple Posts: Please be mindful of double posting. If you have more thoughts on your initial post, please hit the ‘edit’ button, rather than publishing multiple posts in the same topic in quick succession. You can post if someone else posts after you.
Attempts to Circumvent Rules: Simply put, this forum is run by the administrative team with moderators placed to help as well. This team is trusted to perform their job, and will do so at their discretion, with administrative oversight. While we can give you a general idea of following the rules, every now and then something happens that simply is not accounted for. This team will follow guidelines to ensure as fair a user experience as possible is offered.
Member Expectations Towards Admins/Moderators: Users are more than welcome to provide complaints/comments geared towards the moderating team. We are here to make this forum as fun and enjoyable for every single user, and will do everything to keep things livened. That does not mean users may threaten, harass or engage in trolling rhetoric to get their point across. A respectful attitude goes a long way, for both parties.
I’ve been dealing with my own personal troll in the form of the Admin’s wife for more than a year and a half (more so, really). I told the both of these people to stop talking to me more than 2yrs ago and yet… Now it would seem that any reports of trolling must “rise to a certain level” because the only other “remedy” this place has to resolve an issue (cough-bullshit-cough) is “banning” people. Kinda like if they had a report of sexual harassment and the response came back, “Well, until they actually put a dick somewhere inside you… we’re gonna let that happen.”
Here’s a retro-cut of how that went (and I don’t expect anyone to read it now cuz no one did then).
Alright, so… We were given the criteria back then about what it would take for “our Admin” to use the Golden Phone to contact ScottieD about such issues…
Personally, you would all be well-challenged to find more than a handful of threads I’ve created or posts I’ve made since those remarks in which Krunk has not inevitably left some kind of shitty, negative, bigoted, race baiting shitpost after.
I’ve ignored it for so long but once newer members start thinking that there’s some kind of back-and-forth/tete-a-tete/rivalry thing going on when, in fact, it’s just the constant trolling I’ve had to put up with because her husband is… well… Just read above, cuz I’m not repeating myself again about it.
Ya know that saying everyone knows about the definition of insanity? I got a new one.
The definition of insanity is when you tell someone, “I’m not talking to you. Stop talking to me.” and… they still hear your voice… talking to them… even though they’re not. Like after a bad breakup and every song on the radio is all about it? Yeah, FaygoHaters be like that.
I don’t come here to talk to those people and neither do you.
Maybe it’s time we talked to ScottieD about that. But I ain’t mad at him. He’s got three or four other platforms to manage as well as all the other work he does for all us Juggalos and Faygoluvers. I just wish he’d take a little time and spend it around here. NOT getting involved in all our discussions but at least making sure his forum reflects the same kind of family and community that he helps bring to all of Juggalo-kind with his website and reporting.
An’ just to be sure, I ain’t mad at our “moderators” either (Scruffy, GanjaGoblin or the well removed PRJ), cuz they can only do what they can do.
Hell, Warlock has the distinction of having been THE ONLY moderator to have EVER actually locked a thread (like this one SHOULD HAVE BEEN after about the 3rd or 4th post in it): the forum guidelines. I guess when he was no longer a moderator, that knowledge went with him?
Faygoluvers don’t need this shit cuz Faygoluvers ain’t about this shit. We got Gathering 20 coming up and Faygoluvers have got some party planning to do!
So before we go and start bothering ScottieD with this, everyone should (in the next few weeks), go bookmark all your “favorite” posts from your “favorite” trolls; all the factory farming gifs of animal slaughter, all the homophobic photoshops, all the race baiting memes, all the threats against other members, every dissertation in support of the confederate flag or the “correct” history of the swastika…. ALL THAT SHIT… so that when ScottieD does come around to ask, “Ok. What’s the problem?”, we’ll all be able to give him some things to ponder over.
We wear the Faygoman. We street team for this website and “Whoop” its name. We’ve started a Village.
We deserve better but are owed nothing. But like Juggalos, we make it work with what we can get.
We don’t need to know who these assholes are. We know who we are and what we’re about.
Family is where you find it. Some people used to find it here.
[…and remember, kids… no matter what you give them… the lesbian stripper will never fuck you… yer just wasting your time.]

Truth is im only mad that I can’t grow a man bun. Fuck man.
I love you, man. But I would sink a large shed tool into your head if you had a man bun hahahah
I made a joke prejudging Boulder, CO. Because I heard it was lots of Colorado granola hipster types, I told my wife that “I would drink a beer for every dude with a man bun that i encountered in Boulder”.
Then i actually went there. And realized that I didnt want to die… from alcohol poisoning.
For real, they gave me a bad impression, too. Bunch of hipster ass whiteys. The young girl in the candy store was so rude I wanted to slam her head on the counter and scream THUG LIFE!!!!
fuck the man bun.

How in the blue fuck does Psyral determine how we interact around here? The forum collectively wanted him to be mod. Dude has fucking done a bunch for this site and has always done it respectfully. Nobody determines how you interact but you.
The juggalo gatekeeping shit is old. This forum has always been a source of conflict because juggalos are different. So because you fucks dont like somebody because of their politics you seem to think they dont belong? Says who?
Now you wanna lead a cherry picking out of context witch hunt to railroad people out of the forum. Because YOU personally don’t like them. We used to squash beefs around here. We used to fuck with each other and make corny inappropriate jokes.
I implore anyone to yes, go back and read through the years. Not to pick out bad things people say. Go read the threads where a juggalo needs help or advice. Read the positivity for yourself. Read the dumb beefs and the fun stories. You guys are being petty as fuck over politics. Youll never admit it in a million years but its true.
Juggalos really do come from all walks of life. Everyone here has a little bit of good and evil. Everyone can be an asshole or type some shit they didnt think on.
Why the fuck would you go back through looking for mean words people typed when there is magic in these pages? For real, go look.
Does nobody see anything wrong with what’s going on here?

Psyral isn’t a shitty mod, he’s a fairly good mod. He isn’t controlling how we interact, nobody does but us.
He’s only given his opinion.
Neither of them have said anything racist.
Lying to ruin their character because you can’t accept their political view makes you guilty of creating the environment you claim to not want to be around.

I get that you hate me. It all started here -> https://faygoluvers.net/v5/forum/politics/politics-anyone/page-24/#p175053 because you didn’t like my politics. And that is not the worst you have posted about me. If you really want to start a crusade against me, go ahead. There is nothing stopping you. I encourage you, or anyone else, to find any of my posts that are racist, homophobic, Islamophobic, etc. I can’t seem to find any. I have found many posts where I have defended myself against such accusations and asked for the accuser to show even one post where I have posted something racist, homophobic, Islamophobic, etc but they never do.
…
Now let’s take up part of issue that @cheshyr mentioned. The rules of the forum. If members feel that the rules need to be changed, then that is something productive that we can discuss. @scruffy has suggested in the past that we may need to revisit the forum rules and what mods are allowed to do for violations. If others feel this needs to be discussed, then let’s do it.

This is such a cute trope. Like literally nobody said we should ban people because of their politics but that’s how you interpret everything that’s been said?
Cheshyr laid out exactly what he thinks should happen in a hella articulate way. Clearer than anything he’s ever posted and nothing in the post was about disagreeing about politics.
None of the people who have been vocal about wanting kukluxklown banned have said anything about his politics. Not one.
What literally everybody has complained about wasn’t shit about ideas but behaviors.
Stop living in your fantasy world where people are out to get conservatives. It doesn’t exist.
