I don't care if Chains was "pretending" to be drunk/high or not, these threads in general are fucking horrible.

They end up no where except for massive flame wars which then lead to infractions/bans.

TBH I think Modacity should have a "Drunk/High Thread, Instant Ban" policy.

If a user posted a Drunk/High thread (EVEN if it was a joke) they would be put in the detention forum for being disruptive and completely annoying.

Over the years I have been on Modacity, a lot of these kinds of threads have appeared numerous times. It gets quite annoying to see shit like this. Modacity is not fucking 4chan you crazies.

Crappy drunk posts shouldn't get harsher penalties than plain old crappy posts.

It's not the shitposts, it's when people create threads for the sole purpose of shitposts.

Then crappy drunk threads shouldn't get harsher penalties than plain old crappy threads? I understand that they're annoying but outright banning someone would be pretty stink. Just have the mods to warn the posts instead of just locking and binning them would be better.

He's not the only one that's made horrible drunk threads, but he's probably doing out of some childish need for attention (ex: "hey look at me I'm underage and I'm drunk, derp!").... I've seen quite a few drunk threads that were fairly amusing from other members, and they never ended up going down the shitter either!

its just like any other shitpost, and should be warned/locked as such... no need for harsher punishment.

We're not going to permaban people for this. It's just spam and gets treated like any other spam. We can take care of people who are regular problems with stuff like that.

Sorry for unlocking this against moderator orders, but it seems like you guys are confused about what I said.

What you guys are assuming is this:


TBH I think Modacity should have a "Drunk/High Thread, Instant Ban" policy.

You guys instantly read that and went on to post.

I didn't mean actually ban them, as I stated here that:


If a user posted a Drunk/High thread (EVEN if it was a joke) they would be put in the detention forum for being disruptive and completely annoying.

Oh well, I guess if a moderator/admin really thinks that this deserves to be locked, I will leave it up to their decision. If a moderator/admin DOES lock this thread, it will not be opened again.

All I edited into the OP was the addition of "the" and "forum" for the bolded, italic, underlined sentence.

All of that was originally there before.

If you are telling me that wasn't there before, you my friend...

Alright, I misunderstood what you were suggesting. I still don't think that it warrants a stay in detention. At most, we just ban them for a day and let them sober up if it's really bad (which I remember happening on a few occasions).

I also find it funny that you're complaining about the spam that comes from those threads when you seemed to be wholeheartedly enjoying making posts that I wouldn't think twice about infracting otherwise.

Also, it is not your decision if a thread gets reopened for discussion. You've been warned about this (I made a point of mentioning it in your detention thread, didn't I?) but it doesn't seem to have really sunk into your head. If you really feel that there is more discussion to be had, you talk to a staff member. You do not unlock it and go "well sorry but I think this should be open". This is a bit of a bad habit of yours.
