Well, all I can say is that it ain't you. I don't know if you want to be one, just helping you out a bit.
Drrh, you speculate too much. I don't like that, especially when it comes to respected (ex-)posters. I think I stated this before. Go gossip at your own blog or register at xxxfilmjobs.

No one specifically. It's the character of the whole place. Just like a playground, people are always either bullying or being bullied, teasing or being teased. Someone new shows up and says something innocent (but probably stupid) and it sets off a string of responses: "Stop posting." "Die. And stop posting." etc. I don't really participate in most of the fights because I'm generally just trying to keep myself amused.

Yeah, that's cool Steezo. It sounded weird to me, "wants to be one of the cool kids". Made me think I was in an even worse place than I thought I was. But sounds like you do the same as me, just make a few friends and try to have a good time.

This place was invented to BE the shitter of porn-related boards. Its just that so many of you turd-surfers are too despicable to recognize your place in keeping it here.

How about stop all the arguing about what people post. Months ago a brand new person registered here and asked one question about a certain video. Forgot who it was but someone just went into attack mode and told him to go kill himself. It was his first post and he never came back after he replied.
One female porn star came here months ago and one of you posted a picture of a horse implying she looks like a horse. She never came back.
You're missing the point of this place. It's an adult version of the childhood playground. We talk and joke about butts & pussy & weenies & poop. Everyone wants to be one of the cool kids and make fun of the dorks. The bullies run the show. We hate you because you're different. And stupid.
Excellent response Steezo... fucken spot on.
I love it when noobs get first post slammed and never come back. It just proves they should never have been here.
The fact that Dur-huh and No-thrust take exception or question your statement only proves to bolster your statement. Well done, that's a win.
Never feel like you have to explain yourself to "them". They don't know "fun", or even "funny". Food chain, yes?.
Totally agree. If you can't hack the shakedown cruise, don't board the fuckin boat. (Trying to get the hang of this quote-within-a-quote func, so I might be fuckin it up.)

Mia Rose did alot of great self-promoting. When she posted/performed every thread had the possibility of being transformed into a Mia picture thread.  I never heard of her before XPT. Now I probably have close to every movie scene she's done. When I got here Hailey Young was promoting like crazy and was very popular. Sierra Sinn used to talk about both her porn and her goal of DJing. Certainly each of these girls had their detractors [I recall, for example, that Mia was XPT's choice to die at AVN 2007]. But, it takes wit and a thick skin to survive. And, drug habits tend to erode that. ::cough::Hailey,Sierra::cough:: And, most girls in porn rather have fawning fans, adoration and worshipful attention than trade barbs with nameless, faceless XPT rabble. Ladies of age with of wit, humor, intelligence and the ability to be a bit self-deprecating when warranted tend to do best. Those who can't understand why we think her husband has an ex-con haircut, not so much.

As far as the girls go I miss Kami,Gen and Melissa. They contributed far more than just self promotion here. Women no matter how tough they are can't take the same amount of shit that a man can on this board. Gia may be the longest running exception.

1) Melissa was awesome overall - on XPT and in person.
2) Deep down inside, Gia is really a man. Explained.

She needs to stick to the appropriate forums.
The Cage just isn't a good choice. Gpt or web talk is right on for her. It's kinda like Elabo wondering out of awop, yes?.

That would be awesome if we could convince the whores that GPT or Web Talk is "safe" for them. Then, we could employ straw men to lure them into riskier forums with some kinds of treats or whatever. Attention for a whore probably being the usual lure. But, it's a false hope. There's just no discipline at this place.
That said, watching Tia Ling slash and burn her way through some of you guys is the best things going on XPT right now. Tia flat out owns some of you. 
Gia and Fatman are delusional that there's some kind of redeeming qualities about this place that make it good for the whores. It has the same redeeming qualities as a street brawl you get caught up in watching and maybe throw a punch or two. Temporary excursions like the ones Fatman listed are as good as its gonna get. Enjoy Tia while she's here. It won't last long.

Gia and Fatman are alluding to the "old days" of which some people hate to hear. Talent for Hire, especially, used to be an insult free zone for a whore to self-promote. They were, of course, strongly encouraged to post pics to support their shilling, but "five-head" comments and the like were verboten. That was back when Padover and Kami were still active.
Speaking of which- anyone heard from Kami lately? I miss that girl. (I've heard from Padover- she will be fine).

I hate to quotefest so I wont... read Northrup and Bonyo.(both excellent btw)
And then I'll say this...
Sure this is an uncensored forum but it does have to be moderated, yes?. People need to post shit in the appropriate forum. The forums all have a description. There's maybe 8 of us that can decide what goes where and exactly none of us are doing their job. I know it's fun to pick on JRV but he's the only one to have done his job in like 2 years.
Floof put in for mod.. That's a good start and we should see where it goes from there. Peoples pick and all, yes?.
edit to say: gia and fatty aren't delusional and No-thrust has never been in a fight.. much less a brawl.

Floofin would make a great moderator if xpt could hold his attentions span.
Actually, Fatman would probably make a decent moderator himself. It would be like giving the troublemaker in class some responsibility. He knows the distinctions between the various fora, but right now he just doesn't give a shit and posts about himself whenever the urge arises. Hereabouts when you really need to take a shit we call that feeling "turtling" and we deliver ourselves to a safe haven posthaste. I think whenever Fatman "turtles" with a post he just deposits it wherever he happens to be. Same with Electrostatic.
Lou, you myself and Coke would make terrible moderators so don't even think about it.

I've never been in the mod race.. never wanted it.
We share common ground on that one.
Coke...heh. I like Coke, the poster that is. As a mod I'd light that fucken kid up like the 4'th of jew'lie. Too easy.
Fatty... he should mod certain people and I should be one of them. I fucken hate mods but I'd be okay with that idea. Bet you would too even though you need no moderation.

Fuck it... lets do this... We have 9 forums
Mods that do werk...
Tony(admin)shouldn't have to be but does.
Gia
JRV
Goat?
the guy in Reviews but only when bitches die and he sheds tears.
This place needs Gia ,Tony and jrv in a global mod position.
Seen it a hundred times elsewhere. Zen is a rockstar and so is Floof so mix and match. It's about being here though. Who will be here to stand point?. The review guy is fucken brilliant but useless to your needs.. so is Brandon.
This is fun to watch btw and I'm not criticizing.

As far as the people's pick goes, I'm under the impression this site is run in a much more regal manner, where proclamations are an important thing. It's part of what makes this web site a filthy truck stop bathroom where sometimes you find guys sucking each other's cocks in the stalls.
What seems to be Jeff's M.O. is he just picks and chooses people he personally likes more so than what's best for the board. Even if I put the effort in, I'd never be a mod here. JM porn doesn't bother me, but I'm not a fan. It's just not my type of thing. And, I'm not a Democrat either. Aside from the fact that Elab is a mindless Democratric fanboi, he seems like a decent guy. And, on a board that doesn't have many outspoken lefties while the owner is a Democrat, the whole fanboi thing definitely helped him become a mod.
I think Darrah is right about a main factor in Goat becoming a mod was the call into Howard and what that did to charm JM. But, there are certainly other reasons that make him an excellent choice for a mod.
If the whole regal thing weren't such an issue and the "people's pick" held more sway, Bishop would have been made a mod a long time ago. He's charismatic and everyone likes him. It'd instill more trust in the mods. But, that's just not the way it is.
If you care, pushing the "people's pick" isn't a waste of time. If you guys try to woo JM long enough, he'd probably eventually do some kind of compromise. The attention would probably get him off enough that he'd go ahead and do something.
Loyalty seems to be another part of Jeff's M.O.. He'll get sick of a mod and be mean to them, but he will not boot them off. Like, why the fuck is Conky still a mod?

What does that mean? What's best for the board??
Other than rare occasions where "power" goes to a mod's head and they bully a bit, and that's not a postive trait, I don't really know what a mod does here.
There isn't much policing that goes on.
All I want from a mod on XPT is like what happened when Donkey recently went off.
That said, I don't see me being "mod" material. Bornyo's assessment of me is correct. Plus, I'm an admitted porn pirate. I disappear, often for long periods. And, I'm a fanboi on a non-fanboi site.
The one thing I do like about mods here is that I have "bumped heads" with several, including some I like very much, and none have completely lost control and banned me for my disagreements with them. I believe that is rare on any board.
And, I think Conky is moderator since so many of us hope he'll someday return.
And, YES, Grumman ... you are not a mod because you aren't a Democrat like say, K1ng.

Being a mod on a message board carries very little cachet these days. Just 2 yrs ago it might have meant something but no more. Twitter facebook et al are making everyone feel self important and somehow outside the "rules".
I don't think what's happening here has much to do with JM as a person at all.
Edit: ok no more phone posts from me.

Yeah, I was pretty vague. I guess I meant something along the lines of putting more emphasis on what would get more people excited about the board vs. just picking people you personally like.

I never said "only".
Quote:

k1ng rarely said shit about politics. Occasionally, but it was buried. You've gotta situation where conservatives are running rampant in AWOP. Then, you've got this one lunatic who's willing to stick up for libtards.
JM isn't a computer program. It's not as easy as talking shit about Obama's health care reform that made the main problem with health care, costs, worse. It's more complex than that. These are just predominant patterns as I've noticed them. I make no pretense as to being able to convince you of interpretative observations like these. At most, notice what I'm saying and see if it seems more true from here out.
Why isn't Bishop a mod?
Why is Elaborator a moderator?
Why was Hyde never unbanned?
I think it comes down to good ole fashioned JM pride. He just seems like the kind of boss that sucking up to helps more than with most.
Quote:

Yeah, and so does JM. It's that loyalty thing. I've never seen a moderator get kicked, no matter how irrelevant they become to the board. In the archives, I saw something about Sierra Sinn being considered a special case because she went so insane. I wouldn't make Coke a mod, but as much effort as he's put into this place, it's just ridiculous letting JRV have the power to ban him. Thank God we've got Monkey.
Quote:

Yeah, he's pretty hands off the board. Just picks mods mainly. And, that doesn't happen often. I don't really care. I just think if the mod choices made more sense than "people I particularly like who don't necessarily benefit the board" you would get more of a feeling that people personally cared about the board than everybody just considering it a fascinating piece of shit.
More stuff people are going to disagree with. But, you've never worked at a smallish company and noticed how wierd it is that underlying so much of how the company operates is a reflection of the man in charge's personality? I know I've worked with people who have shocked the hell out of me with how in touch they seem with what's going on in the world, where more than one of them have made that case.
I don't consider what I'm saying an indictment of JM. It's just more analytic than you usually get. Trying to understand various fragments of dirt you find here and there and determine what they mean. And, the thing is, I haven't even really thought about it that much. These posts that are entirely too long is probably the most I have.
And, it's entirely possible JM would read this and if he even bothers to think twice, scoff at it, and do something just the opposite to make me look stupid. But, I don't really care.

Interesting that you mention it. Where on XPT would you suggest I post? How about y0u? (Don't give us that bullshit response that you would give someone like Willie. C'mon, you're better than that.)

 I FULLY agree and its about fucking time someone mentioned SM tonight. I think Monks is one of the few ones left that actually care. Weather its about an unfair ban, setting someone's ass straight, or just making someone smirkle, he gets it done. Monkey keeps Teh Cage's bowels moving, yet no one takes th3 Mnks seri0us. I don't fucking get it. 
As far as mods, whatever werks for JM and/or the bosses, that's just business. I'm totally cool with that. In other news, anyone ever notice what a bunch of whiney pussies post here? No one will ever admit to being [insert anything embarrasing here]. Fucking kids, I swear.

Hey Electro,what is happening? +1 to all of that until the part about Fearless Leader.. I regged because Monkey and credit him for challenging my boundaries IRL. Anyone who doesn't know that he is the glue at xpt is uninformed

It was? I must have missed that one.

It can be. But if that's the pw's main goal, it ain't gonna happen. The main reason to post here should be because you find xpt interesting/funny/whatever, regardless if you're a pw or not. Why does everything have to be about promotion? Can't a bitch just have fun?
Personally, I've always been into message boards. They're online communities. I've been on message boards since 97, maybe even before, like when they were .alts. Being without a message board is like being without a home.

AGREED on Monks. He's the soul. And the soleil. But I think they DO take him seriously. And they GET when he's irreverent. Either way, he's held universally in high regard here because his observations are spot-on even when in jest. And as a writer, he's fucking untouchable. Team Monks.

Sure this is an uncensored forum but it does have to be moderated, yes?. People need to post shit in the appropriate forum. The forums all have a description.
I feel that's the job description in a nutshell. Memory retention for finding long lost threads/pics to call people on their shit doesn't hurt either. I don't believe in mod= referee. I don't believe in breaking up stick fights or being the great neutralizer (cue 'looks like a penis pump feels like a sneaker' song. Oh shit, that was Naturalizer. Eh. I feel people can sort shit out themselves and arguments are the natural ebb and flow of message boards in general anyway.

Just for the record, I believe I am tolerated more than liked around here
Finding that out would seriously shake up my interpretation of this place. Somebody start a new thread and do a poll as to who's the most popular.

Yeah.
And, now that I've opened my mouth and tried to look like I'm spouting wise, please humor me and let me explain one more thing I believe I was remiss about. I don't think Goat woke up one morning and said, "hey, I wanna lick JM's asshole today! I'll call Howard". Sucking up is just the critical way to put it. The sympathetic way is to explain that there are just commonalities between Goat and JM's personalities that JM appreciates. Much like the little fragments of info I find about JM here and there, I don't think there are enough commonalities for me to ever be a mod. Nor do I put the effort into the board, so I wouldn't even support myself.
If people want to make the board more whore-friendly, I support what Lou and somebody else said about disciplining certain forums so there aren't people doing everything they can to make you look foolish to be bothered with. I suspect more than just the whores would enjoy it. Probably change the name of General to make the shift more obvious. There will be times when mopez gets bored and heads up there to cause trouble, but that could be addressed by warnings, and when it gets bad, temporary bannings. That would let people know they are welcome here without having to defend themselves.

Why isn't Bishop a mod?
Why is Elaborator a moderator?
Why was Hyde never unbanned?
*** I believe that Bishop isn't a mod for one of two reason [or a combo thereof].
1. He doesn't care to be one.
2. He, like I, pops in and out. When he's here he's very active. But, then he's gone for quite some time.
*** Elaborator is a mod became a mod, IIRC, when Moxie was BOOTED for being a dick. He was very active in AWOP, mostly with his YouTube stuff, but also as one of the two liberal voices [Gunker being the other].
As with others, I have had my run-ins with Elab/Ms. Swift, but overall, I have no problems with his modship. What exactly does he do wrong? Is he limited your debate/nonsense? Is he randomly locking threads because he disagrees with something? What????
On mods being canned, you may not have been here when, as Bornyo put it, "Lord of the Flies" rules kicked off BOTH Monstar & Chico/Sergio from modship.
Sierra Sinn stopped visiting us LONG before she was de-mod-ed. IIRC, she was only removed after her "alleged" Blockbuster scam [though it could have been after she was "accused" of stealing some other whore's pocketbook]. But, it was like she never was a mod. She was quite active and popular, rolled well with the punches, was made a mod and DISAPPEARED from XPT.
 << Perhaps???
***I wasn't here when Hyde was banned. So, I have no clue as to the reasoning behind it. But, since I never cared for his nonsense, it never bothered me that he was gone.
Sometimes there is addition by subtraction. 
But, he was often venturing into the dangerous triggering world of kiddie pron. If there is one thing Jeff doesn't need is any whiff of that stuff. FAR too dangerous for a guy the DOJ had a hard-on for. So, that might be the reason.

This is all just interprettive, so it's silly to over-argue it. Especially as something as meaningless as who's mod at XPT. And, thank you for addressing the meat of the post vs. other places where I was less on topic. But, to address your interpretation. Quote:

Bishop has stated in public threads that at times he'd like to be a mod. And, plenty of mods pop in and out. Bishop of course has had long periods of activity.
And, I remember you saying you weren't crazy about the guy. But, my impression is that your opinion isn't common. I could be wrong.

Youtube links? Seriously?
Quote:

No, he's not bad. I kind of like the guy. I just don't see him lifting the place up, like a Bishop or a few others people have thrown the name out of the hat. As a dark horse, now that freeinacage has stopped the whole Crocodile "wanna be part of the crowd" nonsense, I think he'd be a better mod. But, maybe a little more time as he makes more progress being a contributor before shining a light on him.

There are always going to be exceptions. It's a long history. America is proud of its capitalism, teaching it to kids and school as what makes us great. But, you could sit here and point out where where America hasn't acted so capitalistically. I've been meaning to look up tax rates in the US vs. Europe, I bet they aren't so different.
But, there are plenty of mods who are no longer relevant and are still modding.

Often? I've never seen often. I imagine any example has been deleted. His final banning was for posting pics of retards having sex. And, that posting attributed the retards to being JM Production stars. My guess was the retards was bad enough, the JM reference pushed it over the top making it permanent.
They had plenty of opportunities to complain publicly about illegal shit he was posting, they chose not to. Goes back to my whole interpretation that what the board thinks isn't terribly important in decision making here. Plenty of random people come here and contribute significantly to the board. If I were running it, I'd show more deference to these people. You'd get shit and people would bitch about it, but so what? Just ignoring everybody when they ask is disrespectful.
