I decided to have a scheme wherein non douchebag members would be honored with the right to make first post each month.



The OP would have insta 3-day ban rights, simply by reporting a user who was not being a good member, a sort of " mini-mod "


" we shouldn't share our power with peons. "

" a spam thread will infect the forums "

" honoring one user will make others feel bad, a intranets sort of arizona immigration hullabaluo. "

was the feed back from the other mods.





" fuck you, I am doing it anyway... " sayz I.



And thus ee chat was born.








As mothers day was recent I should get to be the op next time.

I thought EE Chats was created before the Arizona thing?

All in chronological order, with every relevant post included. Any other mod can verify, it's here

for teh lulz

Some feel EE should be a free range zone where spam is allowed.

Perhaps we should try an experiment;

For one week only porn is disallowed in EE.
DST is ruled with an iron fist, as well as all the other sections.

perhaps it would lighten up the forums, attract some action and allow some fun.

Actually that would probably be a bad idea, however ...

.. what if we allowed a monthly "chat" thread in EE?  Similar to the AU one, but it gets deleted at the end of the month, since it is mostly crap anyway.  Some member gets to create a new one at the beginning of each month.

I like it Orange, but I think it should be mod made.

1) It has been tried multiple times before by users, and so if we make it they can't point to the old ones as easily. Start it off on a better foot.

2) You know there would be an idiotic fight at the beginning of each month to be "first".

Although an alternative I could go for would be one of us makes the first one, then we present the honor of making the next month's to a chosen member. Community recognition is never a bad thing.

How about we ignore any reports from anyone but the selected " thread chosen member " in said thread. That can be the
" secret " about the thread perhaps in the beginning. A little confusion might ensue at the start, but would be entertaining I think.
Allow a pretty free range of posts, excluding the obvious skin and racism.

I think it would be fun for a while.

I like the idea of allowing one of the spamchamps the first months slot, giving it our official stamp of approval by linking it in a Announcement that ran for a couple of days.

Thread title could be EEchat

Are you kidding me? Do you know how many words you have put into EE Chat? That shit is short by any standard.

Ah, fak it. Give the current "owner" of the chat thread the power to decide who opens the next one as long as the person hasn't opened one before. How about it?

Sounds like a good idea, but I predict a lot of brown-nosing to get it, flaming if they don't (which will be all but the person who got it), and in some cases, a pretty bad decision just to spite everyone else (e.g. picking someone who posts once a month in D&ST).

It'd be worth a shot, but hide in the bunker with the doors locked tight when you test it

Tru dat. I reckon it's gonna be brown nosing in any case and multiple EE chat threads will open anyway every month. Can't be avoided.

I created this thread with the assumption it would get shot down, spammed to fuck and closed in about two hours.

Uzique does deserve EE Chats June, WarMan getting May was terribly amusing but come on, Uziques thread had those Latvian jokes.

Aaron is a sterling bloke and you'll be hard pressed to find another member who posts with such enthusiasm and elegance.

He certanly is Unique.  Im more freak than unique tbh.  Ive never seen or met anyone type quite like Aaron does, I dont understand 90% of what he writes but thats a problem this end, not his.

Ive never met anyone that has two double letters at the start of their name for that reason more than any other I feel he should get it.  Im not voting though and thats that, I didnt vote in the UK Erections earlier this month/year w/ever and thus didnt get caught up in the shit that followed.

Nuh I said that about a week ago and I still havent seen one reason explaining what the buzz is all about.  After the first page, I never go back to it anyway.  For instance, people are telling me War Man did this months, well Ive just posted in the thread and unless you pointed the OP out, I wouldnt of known.

EE Chat is for mouth breathers, yokels, sister-fuckers, and village idiots.

ig had the first threads created legally or whatever, a moderator meant to delete and then undelete them when the time was right but ended up accidentally deleting them in the only way you can delete something on this forum and not be able to get it back haha.

Yes, obviously Uzique put a lot of effort in to his.

Regardless, we'll probably be doing polls from now on out so that everyone (including the mods) are all on the same page. People that have already had it will be excluded. If by accident the person who wins a poll has already had it, we'll take number two.

There will however most likely be one exception to this rule in the coming months.

Above all, remember that christ, this is not that big of a deal.
