Working on the link disabling in JS (or rather turn links to clickable links).
Going to need some extra work to get Media embedding working in conjunction as I for some reason were transforming links to clickable when generating the pages and not using JS (I probably had some reasoning behind it when I did it). So I am changing how it is done on backend and moving the link generation to frontend.
But just wanted to give update that it should be done in not too long, I just have to do some testing and hopefully not too many areas will be affected by moving link transforming to frontend (javascript).

Super, thanks Pupper.
using No JS by only using the backend sounds like a feature for older browsers... As in positively ancient or esoteric ones.

So, are y'all gonna ban/404-prompt me - again - if I start arguing that horsefuckers are de-facto furries?

Maybe phrase the OP as a question, so that it opens the floor to debate.
And if you think it's too shitposty from /mlpol/, /sp/ should be fair game. They let the resident boomer post his general threads there.

Heh, no wonder this site is dead. If the dissenters are gagged and banished... /s

In fairness, it (the ban/404) was evidently temporary. Additionally, as assholes are concerned I AM exceptional, both historically (wrt site) and generally. While not excusable, the decision was understandable.

Why spamming /sp/ is allowed with threads that are clearly posted to cause disruption? Is board sabotage funny perhaps?
Another question. Is the responsible already banned? I don't see the management taking action at all, the threads are still up, like they were posted by it.

I’m assuming you’re talking about the guy posting all the Hi Anon threads.

If he were doing the same thing on the main board the threads would be deleted. /sp/ is generally a looser board more conducive to funposting. Also, the only active threads there at present are a random meme dump thread, a random link dump thread, and a mildly entertaining troll thread about whether or not horsefuckers are furries. No huge loss if any of that junk gets bumped out of the catalog.

> Is the responsible already banned?
No.

The responsible by posting simultaneous multiple threads obviously looks to mess the catalog up. That is not fun posting, but it has a clear malicious intent. He did it before at /mlpol/ and after killing that board is doing it now at /sp/ where most of the action is happening.

Again, there’s not much going on there that he can mess up. /sp/ is basically this site’s /b/, it’s designed to be anarchic and all threads should be viewed as temporary.

> He did it before at /mlpol/ and after killing that board is doing it now at /sp/ where most of the action is happening
It happened once before on /mlpol/ to my recollection. As I explained, on that board the quality control is tighter, so the threads he posted were either deleted or moved. It did not “kill the board” or even have much of an effect; the issue was dealt with and that was that.

> That is not fun posting, but it has a clear malicious intent.
I can’t speak as to the user’s intent, but I can confirm he is a regular site user and not an invader causing trouble. Again, since this behavior took place on /sp/, it’s not really breaking any rules or causing serious trouble, so I see no reason for staff action here.

>Why spamming /sp/ is allowed
"Spam" threads like HI ANON have been native /sp/ content since its conception. It's only in recent years that it's become full of e-celeb threads, generals and other dubiously policy-legal threads.
>>8279
>obviously looks to mess the catalog up
Now the catalog has ponies on it. Instead of completely-dead non-pony threads. An improvement, imo.
>killing that board
As if, lmao.
>where most of the action is happening
Only like two or three posters even post to the random generals that take up /sp/'s front page. It is not most of the site's content.

By post count? Not counting Lotus' pony dating sim, that is

Not the thread for it.

Serious question; I wont claim the furry thread isnt deaigned to rustle jimmies, but the YT spam is lgbt-tier obfuscation. I assume cuz "its /sp/" that its 'acceptable', and if so fine. Is there a line on /sp/, and if so, where is that line? (illegal contrnt, obvs not acceptable)

Flooding /sp/, possibly to slide a thread you don't like is one thing. Banning an user because he trolled you is another. I remember you got a lot of shit for abusing your authority as a mod.

Spam protection measure. A bot can't be set up to post thousands of threads that we would have to combat as it keeps posting.

It apparently is if you are hitting the limit and people are complaining. Just spread out your posts a bit and it won't be hit.

>Where is the line drawn?
Honestly, it's all pretty fuzzy as to where the line is drawn.

In general, on /mlpol/ the standard is intent. Is a post, or series of posts, intended to disrupt? Autism is generally allowed, although when it gets to the point that it completely derails threads and is intolerable, it isn't.

On /sp/, we're more lenient in general. It's more of a question of what is tolerable. The "hi anon" threads, the "bronies are furry" crap, and the youtube links are all questionable.

It isn't a settled question.

Okay Ninjas, you've finally gotten what you wanted.

I know I live rent free in your head, and to you I'm the author of all bad things that happen to you, or something, but for the record: Fasces wanted to ban you from nearly the beginning, Elway wanted to ban you since last night, I was the last "yes" vote with Pupper not saying anything on the matter. Elway made the ban.

I don't care to argue with you. Boom Boom has been banned for less in /sp/.

We've been over this drama many times over the past 5 years, and we're not doing it anymore, which is what I said to Ninjas.

I'm not relitigating ancient shit.

If there's any confusion; Ninjas was banned for using the report system to make threats to staff, and for posting his furry troll thread in /mlpol/.

The Hi Anon thread have served their purpose. Enough of them have been posted, and we may start trimming a few of them should Elway deem it so
