Why is this board just all spam topics when it's called "Poll of the Day" anyway?

There's some moderating in this mess, but it's very selective moderating that largely contributes to the mess.

tbh, they do need to shut it down already.

This board is a gutter by design. Trash gets a pass on this board that wouldn't fly on other boards largely because if it didn't, the people here will just find some other board to trash. There's still a line that you can cross here, it's just further back than most places.

Well, to be fair, it used to have topicality, but that was long before I started coming here some 15 years back.

Sometimes I wonder how I ended up here. Like, I don't remember consciously coming to this board and thinking "I'll post here!" I mainly used GameFAQs for guides and reviews and had written a few myself, and then somehow I ended up here. I don't think of the poll often, much less actually vote in it, but I've been coming back to this board on and off for over a decade now.

I occasionally kept stopping here to talk about the PotD and then the last time when people ended up giving me lip, I wound up sticking around. And ironically the toxic trolls who whine about me the most are the guys who wound provoking me into sticking around for a bit, after which I found that I kinda like the board. However, if they had been decent human beings, I might have not become something of a regular here at all. It really makes you think.

This board is for the faux sjw of the internet to bully anyone that doesn't accept the mindset they are told they have to accept while not accepting responsibility for any actions they have commited citing whichever #shaming they feel they can defend themselves I.e. sophieshaming

The rest of us are just here to see the fights and stupidity. Its like the primate exhibit at the zoo

Not really. I still stand by the statement anyone dumb enough to slap a live bear deserves the mauling. You can be offended that the idea that cause and effect can and do happen or you can grow up and not actively try to provoke people. Again onther individual who cannot understand responsibilty of his actions

I get moderated every once and awhile for things I should totally not be moderated for, but I just shrug and accept it. There are mods, they have a job to do and if they mod something silly, it's not worth fighting about.

Not like any of our posts are gonna change lives or something.

Now that you mention it, I could probably look at my moderation history to figure out when I started coming here. Looking through my private messages, I see one moderation alert for 2013 then starting May 2014 I suddenly start getting modded like once a month or more which is mostly likely when I started regularly using PotD. Right around that same time I have a message from AllstarSniper. As such, early 2014 seems a pretty bet.

Following that period, I have private messages from chewy, Terris, and Troll Police in July 2015 which would be the absolute latest.

You know, contrary to Helly's claim I started posting here in 2018.

I believe I started posting within a few months of gamefaqs going live. This user name started in Dec 2001, but that is only because back then they deleted your account if you didn't post for a year, and it had been over a year since I posted (so I had to make a new account).

I "think" my first account was made in 96 but I'm not 100% sure, but I can say without a doubt that I wasn't ever moderated with that account (it was the account I made most of my FAQs for games with).

This account was mainly known for my D2 FAQs and guides back in the day, and I posted on this board as well all the way back then (and hence got some moderations, I think I was even put in like a limbo or something where I couldn't post for awhile (suspended or something?) along time ago.

POTD was always a bad influence on me back in the day, I was younger and sometimes I would get a bit extreme in my opinions etc, and actually post things that should have been moderated etc.

Now I rarely do, but sometimes things can be taken the wrong way etc, and sometimes I still joke but in a way that could be offensive etc.

Still pretty crazy I have been posting on here for close to 25 years at this point.
