That article is the one I posted in the thread that went out of control. Jeff looks different but she really is about as nice as they come. I am SURE his apology is real and not to save face and also he had a REALLY bad year. The GD with politicians post had me in stitches too so thanks for making me laugh GD fans. Just realized this was BH so she won’t even see my appreciation. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlissaGoesRAWR Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 The next person who picks a fight gets a warning point. Let’s get off our high horses and back on topic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AlissaGoesRAWR Posted January 6, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 6, 2019 Warning points have been distributed. Everyone seriously needs to chill out. It's OK to disagree with somebody's opinion on a topic, but picking fights and posting personal attacks about other members can't continue or we're going to have to shut down this conversation altogether. That type of behavior is unnecessary and against forum rules. It's messy, everyone gets defensive and it derails any productive conversation. If you have an issue with a user, it's best to either move the conversation to a private message to work it out or contact a moderator if you think the member is violating forum rules. I consulted with two other team members about this, too, just so you're all aware. I think we were pretty lenient in letting the Jeff/Kalie stuff be discussed this much anyway -- it's a personal situation, most of the posts about it have been deleted or are on now-private accounts, and the only real "news" coverage of it was a single blog. Often such topics are avoided on here. I felt it was OK to continue discussing it when it first came up because the conversation seemed mature and productive. Let's keep it that way. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the drama sure is entertaining, the arguments are repeating themselves, people seem to be debating in circles, and I feel like every person who visits the forum at all has already voiced their opinion on the matter. And it's been a while since there have been news about the conflict anyway and perhaps it's for the best to stay out of it from now on and let Kalie and Jeff handle this themselves? Put us out of our misery, mods. I generally think it's best to let conversations naturally die out rather than imposing restrictions. If you feel this way, maybe others do too and it won't continue anyway. But these kinds of decisions are often made as a moderating team, so maybe others will feel differently. 22 minutes ago, Joe. said: I barely come on here anymore so I'll take one as well, this is a pretty frequent occurrence and seems to be consistently overlooked. So condescending and always the victim. Theres nothing wrong with debate or even arguing (imo) but its the attitude of members that ruins the discussion rather than what's said. May be something to it then? This to me is insider info, hence why you're seen as an insider Hey, knock it off. You've added two comments to that post already since being given a verbal warning point for continuing fights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Fuzz Posted January 6, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 6, 2019 Posting here to first off say that I'm in total agreement with the warnings that Alissa has given. Also, I've hidden the more recent posts talking about Jeff and his personal life. It's not a conversation that's a healthy part of this community. People are not perfect, but no one here knows the full story, and it's not our job to look into it. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzz Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I don't care how long your posts are. If you have problem with something we're doing, send a PM about it. Hell go post in the GDC feedback thread. Stop hijacking the popular topics to air grievances about each other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can agree that it probably would be more disappointing because we have all built it up in our minds to be a lot like AI in quality. (don't get me wrong, I love Shenanigans, but it pales in comparison to the overall quality of AI) and I feel like because we love the boys so much and we've heard so much good stuff from them that we would automatically assumed C&V would be some lost gem that is magically amazing. Of course I would still LOVE to hear it and I think it would be an awesome album, but I don't think it would be nearly as exciting as we all hope it would be! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A catchy narrative of alienation in a time of political strife, the three-act blitzkrieg had Billie Joe and company at the arguable zenith of their impressive stretch as rock ’n’ roll’s modern Working Class Heroes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
