About to have a threesome...

I want everyone here to know: this is how I'm going to treat the mass amount of shitty GAF relationship threads from here on out. If there's not some sort of evidence or convincing story posted, you're not going to be hanging around for too long. Relationship threads have been a cancer on the OT forum and they need to be erased.

best mod

thank you for saving us

To be fair, having a threesome with a couple then an hour later having to go back to them to say "hey guys, I need to get a photo of us all together to prove we fucked" is a little bit...well, I'd find it difficult.

Either way, I've had many, many sexual experiences before - making GAF know about them is the least of my concerns. But that's just my view. Either way, all I know is that I wouldn't have made this thread.

I think the point is less of "Well, I better find some way to prove this" and more of a "Maybe I shouldn't even make this a thread in the first place"

I think he just posted pictures of them fully clothed. Nothing to suggest he was having a threesome.

It was seemingly verified by another GAFfer:

I am the "Gus" from the text and I can confirm that he is indeed a real person who is took drugz and probably let a dude lick his butt last night.

He asked me for advice about this a few weeks back as well. I've only had the other kind of threesome and even that was a bit odd so uh... Dunno what to say about how to handle someone else's dong constantly in your peripheral while you go at it.

Still - a mod symbolically asked him to produce evidence fully expecting it to never appear given the timeframe; drops the hammer regardless. I find the depending-on-the-mod police state nature of banning to be both unpredictably ruthless and inexplicably lenient. Hail GAF.

I made my g/f and IRL GAF friend bday threads and they were counted towards my Junioring. It's actively being enforced, don't worry.

I've never had birthday thread in five years. or a tag.

Maybe I should be happy I've never received either.

edit: Oh, you edited your post. Well, I wouldn't make my own birthday thread of course.

It's always been that way to an extent, especially on Gaming.

I've been banned due to many reasons on Gaming, some which may class as "silly", but in each time it's served as a learning lesson as how to conduct myself on GAF.

Even the bans which seem petty as hell have a lot of value to them if you think about it. I'd like to think that I've become a better member of GAF over the years - people can dispute or approve of that as they will.

I'd say we've had pretty fair moderation these past 5 years all things considered. You don't see mods pushing specific personal agendas like you did before Stump and Nirolak's generation was added. The mod team seems more united than it was when I joined 9 years ago.

I personally wouldn't read into it too much, friend. You have 10X the posting rate I do, so the law of averages were never on your side.

Yeah that seems a bit retroactive. I'm all for what White Man is doing, but realistically there is no way the OP could have posted a pic 'in situ' as the deed had already be done (plus the other two would likely have told him to fuck off). So what was uploaded seems reasonable.

And there wasn't a warning ahead of time to tell the OP not to start this thread. In fact the recent influx of shitty relationship threads might have made him feel safe in posting it.

Oh well

LOL - I will miss relationship GAF. A healthy mix of mock posts and entitled OPs seeking affirmation of their unhealthy antisocial obsessions. I loved the sarcasm and circle jerk of common sense.

Agreed, but after the past few weeks worth of threads, I see White Man's point. But hopefully that means the threads are always gold that do make it.
 
I mean... If further confirmation is needed there are lots of pictures of him with other gaffers in SF as well as with me, him and a Guild Wars 2 GAF guild friend.

I don't think needing proof was the point White Man was making though. Basically we all need to think twice before posting something potentially inconsequential in a topic that will get posts regardless of the value of the OP. I'm sure I could post a two sentence tipping thread that would pass 8 pages no problem, for example. Or talk about how rad my foreskin is.

That makes sense, but wouldn't it be better to start off with a warning (perhaps a board-wide announcement) instead of jumping straight into the ultimatum? It's not like this kind of moderating has precedent (as far as I know; feel free to correct me and disregard this post), so perhaps the OP thought that this kind of thread was permitted. I mean, the direction this thread went really did come out of left field.

there should be a rule to post pictures off all participating parties in every sex-thread

e: read the rest of the thread. White Man is my hero

So, a 'White Man' enforces his will over the populace because he doesn't approve of how other people discuss their sex life?

This is the most meta social commentary thread since PigSpeakers's infamous 'News Story' thread.

I like what you're doing White Man please don't ban me

I was reading through the thread for the first time and was disappointed to see OP was banned for presumably making it all up. But then I see he posted pics and everything. Did not see that coming.
 
I guess he was banned because a mod didn't saw his picture, despite it being posted 3 times on the same page. Some people joked that he was banned because he did *not* post nude pictures... at least I hope they were joking.
 
I think the idea that shitty relationship threads will be cracked down on more is a good one (even if I morbidly enjoy them) but do you guys really think the notion that a mod will ask for proof of something for a poster to avoid a ban, that person can post proof, and then he/she gets banned anyway is a good one?

If he had just been banned out right after new rules had been posted not to post shitty relationship threads (and described what that means) then that's totally fair. But when a mod, as a person of authority, asks for proof of something to avoid a ban I'd like to think he/she's telling the truth, being fair, and is not just messing with me. I want to think that he/she isn't just going to ban me anyway, which seems to be (please correct me if I'm wrong) what happened in this thread.

I just want to be clear what these 'new rules' are. I don't want to get banned because I can't verify any comment/thread I might make about my sex life/romantic life with photographic evidence, or get banned because a mod deems my story to be too shitty when I don't know where the line for that is.

Aw man i kinda feel for the OP, even if his story was true it might be pretty awkward to get a picture of everyone together .. how do you explain that to them?

Yeah this does seem pretty fair.

If you're going to ban someone ban them, but it's a bit harsh to make them post pictures of themselves and their threesome buddies beforehand and tell them if they do they won't get banned.

Has anyone ever clarified what are bannable offenses? Is it solely breaking the ToS?

OP was asked for proof, verified it, and was banned as a result? Not fair at all, especially to the posters that follow these threads.
