Trolls ruining any conversation.
QBN is shit now
- Just.
Ignore.

Don't.
Engage.Nairn - America!kingsteven
- Easy to avoid talking to them.nb
- But these walls of text pasted in, all the ignorant shitmemes... not to mention the brazen racismnb
- It's def gone downhill recently, but it has cure my addiction of 20 years though, I spend half the amount of time I used to on here, so swings and roundabouts.fadein11
- Disagree
QBN 2020 > QBN 2019drgs - @nb - aye, because there's a bunch of people who keep feeding deathboy (who I assume you're refetting to - strange, that) responses.Nairn
- If everyone ignored him he'd either have to calm down or go full-on docpoz and end up getting banned for attention-seeking behaviour.Nairn
- I think shadow-banning would be a useful tool on QBN, with a flag on people's profiles to switch it off if they want.Nairn
- ..which would be less imposed and authoritarian and more usefully granular for users and mods able to check ignore stats.Nairn
- Like "Huh, 46 users have ignored Nairn - time to ban the cunt".
Ok, that could get abused.Nairn - wtf? there's a note missing there - before "..which would be less imposed" should have been 'or better yet - add an ignore function for users to set'Nairn
- Haha. Ever wonder nairn if it's I who feeds you. Be a boring circle jerk if u all try to make be up each other copy pasta ing the same shit. Diversity is a gooddeathboy
- What will u talk about when I'm gone? Feel a lil bit like slimshady right now standing updeathboy
- I'm one of the ones here almost 20 years. There have always been trolls and assholes I don't think the percentage has changed at all.CyBrainX
- Just.

Found the source of the state (and it's unsurprising):
Frequent signalers of "virtuous victimhood" are psychopathic, manipulative and narcissistic people.

Add the 'transfer of resources' and to the list we can add petty thieves. Looters.

QBN is awesome!
That's why we are all still here.

Love it.

By "just" ignoring you are also accepting that writing these things on this site is acceptable.
How much malice do you want spread here before QBN ends up like a watered down version of 4chan?
- We have mods here. Honestly, not feeding the troll is the best policy. Every response - like this here - is fuel to their peculiar fire.Nairn
- It quite rare you see the mods intervene. And you kinda make it sound like taking any kind of stance against the trolls here is a bad thing.Nutter
- oh, no - i'm saying we should take a stance: the only one i've ever seen work - not feeding them.
Yet..Nairn - I respect your point of view, but disagree :)Nutter
- Lol at bitch ass modsimbecile
- Deathboy booted from both 4Chan and Reddit and landing here.utopian
- https://www.youtube.…deathboy
- but really did you parents sit you down and tell you only your opinion and views matter. and anyone who doesn't agree needs to be canceled. grow up or get parendeathboy
- ts. your views are childish at best.deathboy
- Please never have kids.monospaced
- too late. are you taking care of my son well? letting him be a tran gay or pixie or whatever?deathboy
- see how childish all of that sounds? how childish all of it is? you "nutter" all of it.deathboy

I have started not clicking on topics that are negative here. I usually limit myself to "of the day" threads. I spend a lot less time here and I don't miss the BS.

Call the police.

Requested feature:
When creating a new thread, uncreative attempts to put "________ of the day" in the thread title should be replaced with"This thread was started by someone incapable of original thought or creativity. Encourage him/her to do better."
- cherub-3
"_______ of the day" is like the guitar equivalent of a power chord. Power chords are cool but don't smoke on the water me man.
The whole damn song?
Smoooke on the WATER!! Der DER DER derder DER DER
- cherub0
Appending "_________ of the day" to your thread title is like the literary equivalent, of putting unnecessary commas in your prose. Many times when proofreading, you ask yourself, "did I really need that comma there" and the answer, is "no."
- cherub spoke, unto an empty chamber, echoing their own thoughts, as they rambled, incoherently, into the cold, dark void.imbecile
- Unnecessary Comma of the Day!dopepope
- ^Winnar!cherub
- lolcherub
- If it is something 'of the day' it makes sense. Its when people use 'of the day' threads to post related things from ages ago that its pointless.webazoot
- Like using Pic of the day as an image dump for stuff you found on tumblr and liked. Unless you only found it today I suppose. Lifes complicated.webazoot

Aside from that minor gripe imho the vast majority of Qbners are super cool people which is why I like it here.
I like the photoshop threads I feel guilty for not contributing to the Ivanka one.
