hollowtrucker77 said:nobody is stopping you from starting threads or posting but Zidich won't be happening again, and it won't be allowed we've already said that more than enough times
Honestly, I’m dying to know what actually went down. From what I gather, there was this thread called "Zidich" where a certain group of users would hang out and just chat, kind of like a digital neighborhood fence.
And casual chatting in the off-topic section is totally fine, right? That's why we don't track every single little post all the time.
So, what were these "Zidich" folks talking about that made them so illegal? Were they swapping bomb recipes, insulting people in black suits, or... who knows, I guess I'll die never knowing.

I'm with you. Since we're talking about a "phenomenon tied to male competition regarding reproductive capabilities," it really belongs over in the "other sport" section.

Dunno, you got money?
Kyle King4 said:Signature, plus a question: why hasn't this thread been locked like it would be for any other random Reddit user? Is she trying to become some kind of forum legend now? A rebel against the mods? Does she want her own custom emoji or a monument built in her honor? Is this thread just gonna turn into a private chat room for the moderators?
Shameful. It's the truth. There were mods on this thread insisting that the action wasn't even punishable because it wasn't explicitly in the rules. Where are those self-proclaimed experts now? They're busy spamming this exact same thread.
👍
Personally, I’m against locking threads, even this one.
reddriver35 said:The thread basically already is a moderator group chat. Honestly, let them be. They're boring anyway, and their only way to feel important is having a black username.(Shout out to the exceptions—there are a few, at least.) 🙂
None of those "heroes" actually showed up.
Kyle King4, if they actually had a sense of integrity, they wouldn't have been picked as moderators in the first place. 🙂
That statement sounds a little fascist to me. 🤷 You can't just lump all moderators together under one label like they're all the same; honestly, there's a bit of everything in there.
Look, there’s no denying that on Reddit, there are certain individuals who probably deserve their own separate branch on the evolutionary tree, but even when they get hit with those horrific bans from this little corner of the web, they still have a right to appeal.
Can I just ask—why does it take several days, sometimes even over a week, to actually get a response to legitimate inquiries from the higher-ups? And why is the answer usually half-baked and incredibly condescending?
I totally get it, really. I know the moderators spend most of their time living in the real world and aren't exactly on call 24/7. I respect the fact that they’re volunteering for a job I wouldn't touch even if someone paid me, and yeah, they're human beings with all the beautiful and messy flaws that comes with being alive.
But seriously, isn't it kind of a joke that Jack basically has to intentionally break the rules (the "wait 5 days after an incident" rule, lol!) just to get any sort of reaction at all? And then he gets slapped with a 30-day ban for trying to seek some semblance of justice?
Given the sheer number of idiots drifting through here, I don't think you should be so quick to dismiss established users. Even if I don't always see eye-to-eye with the guy, he’s one of our own. He's... well, he's a gem. A dark, moody gem, sure, but a gem nonetheless.
I'm also calling for an apology and for access to be restored to Unknown, User123, and VUS. Maybe throw in a box of chocolates as an apology for the mental anguish, along with everyone else who stood their ground against the hordes of boring bureaucrats who just love pushing buttons.
ruggedmoose39 said:And man, trying to unhook a tractor is a nightmare too. I’m talking about those heavy-duty beasts, maybe an 80hp model with dual traction. Honestly, the main thing is just having a massive cab—enough room for the driver plus two others.
Forget a tractor with a cab. Personally? I'd go with those little red ones without any enclosure at all. They used to call them the Tomo Vinković models. 😍
ruggedmoose39 said:I just had this random idea pop into my head and wanted to see if anyone would actually be into it. Somewhere out near Washington, D.C., you’ve got these massive tractors, and people could come out to try driving them, plowing some fields, or doing some serious off-roading through muddy forest trails. And on top of all that, they'd get a full rustic spread. Homemade sausages, jerky, bacon... All of this for, let's say, $50.
Does that sound interesting? Would anyone actually give it a shot? Let me know what you think. Thanks.
And the food! 😍 Man, I’d be down. 😁 But would you be getting groups of people coming through, $50 and how much would it cost per person? It only really works if you have multiple tractors so people can race them. If people are just sitting around waiting their turn, I can think of much better ways to spend $50. You’d need to come up with a whole itinerary—maybe some live music or throwing frisbees or something.
Personally, if that tractor belonged to me, I’d be terrified that some amateur would wreck it on their first go because they don't care about anything. They could literally flip the thing and die. Or just smash the tractor to pieces.

And now what, some little kid gets all worked up over polka dots...?🤷 I'm not exactly a "little kid," I just dig anything involving Dalmatians and those legendary Disney's movies about them, but it’s not like I have some weird obsession with dots😁 I posted the photography here, in the forum users thread 😁
Belinda !!!👋👋👋
I say let Belinda—or rather, Cruelli—be the icon for the brave ladies on this forum. Honestly, gender doesn't matter much when most of us are such cowards anyway. Besides, clothing is basically feminine regardless.
I knew the fashion scene here was run by some hardcore fascists. And as for being good... awwww. Aw, my ass.
Justin Peterson13 said:I think I made myself pretty clear. When are they actually going to bring in some new management to clean up this mess and turn this site back into a proper gossip hub? 👍
What do you mean "gossip hub"? It’s time we finally grew up and moved on.
mellowjackal76 said:Look, here's an idea: why don't we just start a separate PDF thread? We could dump all the trolls there, or any topic that feels like it's being driven by one. I'm suggesting this because, honestly, I kind of dig the trolls. They can be hilarious sometimes, and it feels like a waste when someone with actual potential gets banned. Just a thought, please consider it. Thanks. 🙂
Ghettoizing trolls is just the first step toward their total extinction. And trust me, you won't find me in that corner of the internet.🙂 I'll take my chances out in the woods instead.
Chris Peterson53 said:Why don't you go ahead and hand us your own personal version of those religious laws while you're at it?😁
And hey, my suggestion is also dead serious and made with the best of intentions!😉
PS Maybe we should just bring back the Inquisition too? We could "burn" some witches, some boldsailor32 types... and maybe throw an innocent girl into the fire every now and then just for kicks.
I mean, let's not be total animals and burn virgins. Let's be human and just assault them instead.
goldenfox24 said:Why the hell shouldn't we be able to listen to some music while we hang out on the forum?😕
It's just a massive pain in the neck having to click over to YouTube every single damn time I want to hear something.🤣
Honestly, trying to handle intimacy and go skiing at the same time is exhausting too. Not all effort is a bad thing, though. Sometimes you need the burn.
I don't really care about the old Reddit radio station, but if bringing it back means we get some meaty discussion threads where we can just tear into each other over music taste, then honestly, I'm all in.
Brenda Thomas75 said:you can't call yourself big until you cross that line. so basically, you're small as long as you're stuck on this side of it.
(so, are you small or big?)
and get this—they actually think the little guy belongs on the other side of the line.
Why though?
Because they clearly skipped logic class in high school. If every little person crosses the line to become big, we’re gonna run out of room because of the sheer volume. But then, if everyone becomes big, there aren't any small people left, which means we'll just need an even bigger line for even bigger people. And look, this planet doesn't have infinite space.
Me? I'm big in stature, small in spirit, got a massive ego but a tiny brain... okay, maybe my brain is just small. So yeah, I'm hovering somewhere right on the line.
