I think we need to kill COTD thread once and for all. It's beginning to weird me out more and more on a daily basis to see it in the thread list. Like, honestly, would anyone actually go out of their way to defend keeping it?
- It is an embarrassment.webazoot
- It’s great for art and humor but a certain few are inexplicably posting low-grade 2000s-era pornscarabin
- That stuff is getting downvoted to oblivion, not sure why the poster hasn’t noticed... unless it’s an active attempt to discredit the thread and have it removedscarabin
- I'd rather it was just hidden from main view, somehow, so there's an outlet for the invested, but i think Old God Pink Named Moderators would've nuked that shitNairn
- honestly, i don't know why we have porn on this site. Of any kind, unless it's sarcastic, relevant or arty or whatever somehow.Nairn
- awkward for me, because i'm a staunch supporter of the nsfw thread, just because it's an input for weird fucked up shit. I don't unzip before I click it tho...Nairn
- mostly.Nairn
- Blame Omaha.StoicLevels
- Over my dead bodydrgs
- Break it up I to age groups. Illegal age, then 20s to 50s then marychains.lemmy_k
- I just upvoted a picture posted by omaha to see if the FBI will be here in 5 minutesoey_oey
- four minutes to gooey_oey
- I’m all for ditching itGnash
- Yeah thanks to Omaha for flooding and trolling the thread.NBQ00
- I never visit it, so I'm easy either way.Continuity
- dude of the day should go toointeliboy
- Let’s just shut down QBN dot com. As any thread can hurt our feelings.NBQ00
- blame Obamapango
- The new puritans + "the world should adapt itself to my needs"-attitude
I despise Americans, get fuckeddrgs - ugggh stop putting American at the centre of the attention. you're feeding their ego.pango
- it started off as a joke anyway. but some people took it seriously and got carried away.pango
- Omaha's taste in porn reminds me of my teenage dial-up daysTOMMYxGUNN
- QBN is a porn sitenb
- The religious communist comes for COTD! Canceled!Hayoth
- The public has voted in favor of removing the porn from QBN. Just saying.nb
- Omaha's taste in porn is deplorable and perhaps ironic? Still a huge cum stain on the siteStoicLevels
- This site is a plethora of bodily stains.TOMMYxGUNN
- lol—omaha is a master troll and he continues to 'play dumb' while driving so many of you nuts. I think some of you need to grow up rather than KILL content. :/PonyBoy
- Or... you could do the age ol' move of... fucking off yourself and ignoring the things that bother you... yes? Nobody is making you click that thread?PonyBoy
- I mean... are we afraid of scaring 'new users'?!! LOL!!
FFS... just warn then DELETE omaha and be done with it if he doesn't change.PonyBoy - Instead of killing threads... kill the SHIT content that makes it in the thread and stop letting one user dictate the content for everyone.PonyBoy
- What about folks like Simon—international photographers for playboy etc. Tasteful stuff like many folks post? Just moderate the thread (do your job)...PonyBoy
- ... do some moderating, mg33 instead of your lil public post that diminishes anyone not running on your level of wokeness. <3 JUST DELETE HIS POSTS and him ffs.PonyBoy
- you make many valid points, but you lost me at wokeness... even our finest anti-woke ambassadors dislike the thread. Why politicise it?fadein11
- remove the trolls, not the thread. and omaha clearly posts for the attention he is now getting. he wins all round.fadein11
- Not that I ever click on it lollllzzzzfadein11
- "Like, honestly, would anyone actually go out of their way to defend keeping it?"
That kind of question judges anyone disagreeing upfront...PonyBoy - ... it's a political tactic to shut folks up before having a chance to respond... So I responded in tone.PonyBoy
- Delete it. When I have briefly looked at it, it seems like some sort of Wank material archive. Especially for Ohamashapesalad
- For me keeping, or deleting, the thread has all to do with the image it projects of this community to any potential newcomers.Gnash
- I have no problem avoiding the thread, I just don’t like the idea of a new designer popping in to see mostly crappy porn shotsGnash
- All "* of the day"-threads started before 2010 are sacred. QBN is not QBN without potd, cotd, blog etcdrgs
- it’d be different if the shots we all of Simon’s quality or had some merit beyond the obviousGnash
- Same went for the Muslim thread, fine if it was just discussion, but it devolved into racist vomitGnash
- Agree, if it were on par with simons stuff it’d be fine and a lot of it was for the most part, beautifully shot tasteful women, I’d say artistic even_niko
- But it’s devolved into a weird fetish thread of wank material for certain members which is just strange and off putting._niko
- I suppose if we do delete it though, there’s no way to stop anyone from posting similar pics in the photography thread or even pic of the day_niko
- I’m less enthusiastic, but I agree.futurefood
- what gnash saidfadein11
- Totally agreeomahadesigns
- People post ridiculous stuff thereomahadesigns
- Rename the thread Incel of the DayStoicLevels
- i am not a frequent visitor to the thread but it doesn't bother me at all. it stays as far as i'm concerned.renderedred
- and yeah, omaha posts there a lot, i'm sure we don't want porn in the useful thread, so let him have it.renderedred
- keep it but you can only see the thread and navigate when you're logged in. one as to be a member.oey_oey
- or delete that thread and others and start a thread called nudity. independently of gender. don't know.oey_oey
- I just know it's too much but I want to keep freedom and a way that Simon can share his work. Not because of nudes but because he's a member of the Forum.oey_oey
- I'd rather have nothing but design threads but since design has always been about 10% of QBN I wouldn't target Chick of the Day more than any others.CyBrainX
- Or just man up and ignore threads you don’t like and don’t click on it. Problem solved :)NBQ00
- It just needs some basic moderation, like any other forum since the beginning of timescarabin
- I always thought that thread, like the politics thread, was to keep that content from being posted everywhere else. I'm fine with it. I don't have to click.monNom
- mg33 is the moderator (or A moderator) here on QBN—yes? Why not just' do yer jerb' and moderate / delete the nonsense that has him so weirded out?PonyBoy
- im guessing cuz he's not being paid and doesn't want to assert too much moderation.pango
- im all for just delete it. discussion never goes anywhere on qbn.pango
- he doesn't want to be that guy everyone dislikes so he asked for a consensus.
not much to gain for him to actually moderate.pango - PonyBoy, I and the other mods shouldn’t have to devote a single second of time to culling inappropriately nubile, non-artistic, spank-bank ammo.mg33
- I seriously can’t believe there’s a single tear over deleting that thread. Is it not enough to post this stuff on Reddit with its infinite options?mg33
- Oh 'boo hoo' at not wanting to be disliked cuz he made a decision as a moderator. ffs—You start a post that basically states anyone who disagrees w/you (mg33)..PonyBoy
- ... pretty much falls into your categorization of 'weird' (whatever that is). You could easily do your job and protect the thread (all threads) so folks like...PonyBoy
- ... Simon and the like could retain their presence here. If you feel you don't need to 'devote a single second of time culling inappropriately' blah blah blah..PonyBoy
- ...lol—then WTF do you think your jobis? You MODERATE! Delete foul, inappropriate content / users etc—that is precisely what you devote your time to! Yikes.PonyBoy
- PonyBoy, I can’t tell if you’re saying this because you’d be irked to not browse porn here, or because you think policing it is how any mod should be devoting..mg33
- .. their time here. Which is it?mg33
- I think you should clean the fucking site up so more creative folks are attracted to the place, mg33. The shit stays in the thread and you have the power to...PonyBoy
- ... kill it while NOBODY is fighting you on deleting omaha-like garbage. It's weird you let it sit and fester... fouling up the site. You make zero sense, mg33.PonyBoy
- Cute of you to try and attach that foul porn to me as if I like to browse it, mg33. I've done nothing but ask you to do your job— maybe YOU prefer...PonyBoy
- Look, maybe it’s simply the utterly un-artistic crap Omaha posts that’s agitating me. It’s a thread I avoid 99% of the time.mg33
- ... to keep that foul nonsense around as you REFUSE to delete it?!
haha... again... you are making zero sense here. You are the janitor... you wanted the job!PonyBoy - No mod here devotes time to reviewing every thread and post. Not one. Everyone’s actually been f’ing great people here for months, to be honest.mg33
- The need to moderate heavily usually came in the days when multiple people were trolling and fighting.mg33
- We can all lay a bit low now that all that’s not happening.mg33
- Well... you've obviously been reviewing the COTD thread because I'm commenting on YOUR post regarding said thread. Just delete it, dude... be done w/it.PonyBoy
- Well... perhaps the "need to moderate needs" an additional bullet point:
• trolling
• fighting
• posting really foul shit w/out purpose
?
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3PonyBoy - “Sorry Marge, the mob has spoken!”nb
- I mean... right before you submit a post it states "Post belligerent or vulgar things at your own risk"... vulgar!! hehe— mg33—I'm done busting your balls. <3PonyBoy
- Vulgarity is in the eye of the beholder though, isn’t it? :Dmg33
- Maybe we just need a better line of demarcation between obviously artistic nude photography, and the crap that ismg33
- ... just copied and pasted endlessly from Reddit gone wild threads. Happy medium?mg33
- See... here's my problem. 'Good things' can come from a vulgar moment. For instance, take this post (NSFW, gross): https://www.qbn.com/…PonyBoy
- If I hadn't saw omaha's post then clicked scarabin's link I wouldn't have had the LoL that I just happened to have been desperately in need of at that moment.PonyBoy
- I mean... I shared that post w/my wife (you read that right)... she DIED laughing then slapped me.PonyBoy
- < LMFAO!mg33
- Lol. That's retardedStoicLevels
- Pick someone who’s in the thread a lot and make them mod of it. Art, history, current events, humor, etc are all fine but obvious porn gets deletedscarabin
- By porn i mean spread shots with no merit, “here’s my butthole” shots, penetration, etc. don’t get hung up on semantics, just shut up and go with their choicesscarabin
- We’re all basically unanimous that porn is the only thing ruining the threadscarabin
- Im not there enough to suggest anyone. Any volunteers?scarabin
- Obviously mg33 can’t be arsedscarabin
- i would moderate only the cotd thread if asked, on a freelance/non perm basisStoicLevels
- lolStoicLevels
- another way would be to actually use the "flag" feature already built into the site. flag everything you don't think is appropriate, and if a thing gets say,scarabin
- 3 flags, mg33 deletes it. (or whoever)scarabin
- *inappropriatescarabin
- *appropriate, sorry i'm high afscarabin
- Oh. You're medicated.StoicLevels
- shut up :)scarabin
- Cotd was started to keep erotica out of Potd (similarly NSFW of the day was stated to keep porn out of Cotd). You want it back in Potd?drgs
- Only problem I see here omaha should be posting in the NSFW threaddrgs
- just give me the mod power. i promise I wont nuke the thread. https://i.imgur.com/…pango
- or delete all threads that contain porn content and consolidate them in NSFW thread. and burry that shit.pango
- Let me moderateomahadesigns
- you sunuva... lolStoicLevels
- yes, omaha for mod!!!!renderedred
- lol... why not?PonyBoy
- this conversation again?autoflavour
- this conversation again?autoflavour
- this conversation again?Continuity
- 6 days later and it's still there.Nairn
- Just hide the fucker from the main view. It's somehow possible on other threads - just do the same with that one.Nairn

We can only assume the mysterious owners of QBN are not terribly interested in attending to this community.
If you owned a forum and wanted to grow it as a design community forum you wouldn't allow the scuzzy porn threads. They're a total turn-off to almost everyone. Ew.
This forum is the biggest sausage party I've ever been to. Might as well be an incel forum. There are no female-identifying members posting on a regular basis. I'm not even sure there are more than 2 female members and they're inactive.
Do you think that's a coincidence?
Those of you arguing freedom of speech or censorship are totally missing the point. With such a complete lack of perspective outside your own, I actually find it hard to believe you're designers. Maybe you're not. Or maybe you're more artists and would make sucky designers.
Either way, I assume the owner(s) of QBN feel that either:
a) censoring the porn threads would lose a few members and now that the QBN brand is basically "sausage-party design-ish forum for losers and deadbeats" they don't feel they can change that brand and win new users
or
b) they're juvenile and prefer to own a site with porn being a big part of it than a site that is inclusive and inviting to regular people (aka half the population, women)
or
c) they just don't really care at all

- June will be interesting. The domain is currently flagging several client codes. The quiet might be for several reasons.garbage
- The CRP flag is the most puzzling. We might have to find a new treehouse. I have no idea what legal mess the ghost gods are in.garbage

I tried posting respectable nudity and fash shots in chick of the day but was also taken aback by the abundance of cringey Omaha spams lol
Maybe I'll post there again.
Anywho, qbn has it's mental illness / strung out scene and Omaha contributes to that weird vibe.
It's all art I guess. Not everything has to be pretty or make sense. That trash can be funny.
That said, yeah the Omaha spams are just weird and dumb and enough already... but that's just me.

What if we made QBN a classy porn site instead?
- Quality Babes Nudeomahadesigns
- Half way there already.
Not sure how to sort the classy part though?webazoot - <= not sustainable model.
sooner or later the desires demand more genitals, with penetration and body fluids and all that imagined class is gone.sted - I have a lot of content saved up, if so.
How will it work? Will I get my own channel?Nairn
