It was the last post on the previous page, so I guess that's why nobody's replying. 🤷

Can I ask one thing since we're talking about PDFs? Any jokes?
Why is the Chat topic locked? 😕

Kate Foster12, it’s pretty obvious that hollowtrucker77 isn't going to pick you to moderate Reddit.
I guess we could just merge Reddit and the jokes section into one subforum and call it a day. Maybe put two moderators in charge and everyone will be happy.

Regarding those controversial threads about Reddit and Facebook, they honestly haven't served their purpose on this PDF for a long time now.
It was actually quite a while ago that analoglynx23 and I agreed we should pull that topic, and we were planning to wait until that milestone tenth-thousandth post, but I guess things just came to a head today.
The links piled up in that thread aren't even worth much anymore because most of those topics are total trash, and the whole thing has turned into a place where people just go to make fun of someone else—which really has nothing to do with what "trash" should be.
That thread would only still be worth keeping visible if we took the time to sort through the useful links and scrub out all the petty mockery, but that’s a massive job that hasn't been done yet.
It’s honestly a shame that whenever anyone mentions "trash," everyone immediately thinks of the Reddit thread; unfortunately, that seems to be the trend lately.

Anyway, moving on—and I don't mean to sound personal, trying to match your style here—but how many other threads on the trash section do you guys actually find interesting, and how many do you actually write or read besides that one Reddit thread?
How many threads have you started in the trash section? Do you have any actual ideas on how to make the whole concept better? Etc, etc, etc...

Now, I'm not trying to brag, but the threads for trash nicknames and trash home decor were my ideas, even if they were opened by people I coordinated with.
There are others, but that's not really important right now.

As for punishments, I'm of the opinion that on a PDF meant for entertainment, nobody should be playing big shot or acting like a drill sergeant.

Let's circle back to that legendary "Reddit" thread. If you miss it that much, feel free to start a new one in Off-topic or somewhere else, but it won't be staying in the trash section, at least not as long as I'm moderating there. No, I'm not making threats; I just don't want our entire trash section to be reduced to just that one thread while everything else gets ignored.
We'll let the old one stay as a memory, kept clean as a whistle.

Personally, the trash section was at its best when Vajli, Azriela, and the legendary Pero Perić were active, and then Kowa joined in, and so on, and so forth... I won't list everyone.
Back then, we were constantly dreaming up new ideas, and it was absolute chaos in the best way possible. 🙏 😢

If this huge uproar is happening solely because of that one specific thread, then maybe we don't need a trash section at all and we can just throw the whole thing away. 👎

So, the floor is yours, admins.

Oh, and analoglynx23 is backing me up on all of this, just so no one thinks I'm taking this too personally or that I'm worked up, because I'm really not. Life is actually treating me pretty well in all aspects right now. He's just being too lazy to write anything himself.😢

Why didn't you guys wait for the 10,000th post? ☕
Why did this happen specifically today? ☕

🤣

hey hollowtrucker77, just give me a ban for trolling so you can finally shut this thread down🙂

since when is this kind of stuff allowed here? 😕
I mean, I got flagged for one troll post, but then there's this... what even is this? 🤷

Is this place actually going to shut down for good?

won't

Maybe ask him

Yeah.

Can someone help me figure out how to do this in Word:

Basically, I want those little dots so the page numbers end up perfectly aligned on the right side.

Thanks so much in advance. 🙂

Jacob Foster11 said:I can't really go around posting screenshots for everyone right now, whoever happens to remember. Your post just has some details that people usually manually add because the forum doesn't log them automatically. Nothing out of the ordinary, I guess.

Anthony Barrett37 said:I guess it could be pretty interesting? Maybe.

So, I guess I was right.
Alright, thanks. 🙂

Maybe you could grab a screenshot of my notes? I have a feeling they might actually be pretty interesting to you.

We just can't.

You won't be able to edit your signatures anymore.

I'm not sure what part of that isn't clear.

Look, it’s been explained to you hundreds of times already: this Reddit isn't some place where we debate democracy. It's more like a dictatorship, honestly.
The "admins" just do whatever they think is right, period. They don't owe anyone an explanation or any accountability, except maybe the big boss—but even then, he couldn't care less if the moderator is Peter, George, or Steve.
It's pretty simple here: either follow their rules, or just leave and find somewhere else where you can act however you want.
I guess these intense arguments you're having are just, unfortunately, a waste of time.

Don't listen to those dark-haired types, stick with the blue crew.

Get in touch with Vera 👍

I went with black and white because colors just clutter up the forum. It’s the same issue as using color or bold in signatures.

I think he was trying to post in the ban corner, back when he wasn't actually banned. It makes sense he couldn't write anything there, since only banned users and the forum mods are allowed to post in that section.

Thanks to everyone for 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏



Two for one tonight 🙏

Links have been banned because of this: Washington Gazette, which was advertising that site here on the forum.
