    I may make a mod forum for mods to talk about stuff and coordinate, I don't even know how to moderate this thing tbh, and I hope I don't have to anyway. I'd rather let ChatGPT moderate everything than do it myself. (ChatGPT is not currently a moderator, but if I have to start doing it and dont get enough help I'd consider handing it over to some AI)

    I put the basic spam protections in place and new members with 0 rep go through a queue so that their first posts have to be approved by a moderator. But it may take some fine tuning to figure it all out.

    I hope this place can make a comeback, it's a great community with a lot of great guys and gals. No matter what I'll make it the best Sports Board that exists.

    I know theres Reddit (which is a whole different beast), Dawg Talkers (which is ad riddled craziness and a god awful UX). No offense to them, but I'm just willing to make things awesome and not have ads or trackers or subscriptions. I'm fully realistic in the fact that I expect nothing but hope for good life experiences. Bring back fantasy football groups, in-person tailgates/meetups, all of the general fun things.

    I'm just happy I was able to take control of this place. I'll probably never ban or do any moderator actions (unless it's illegal stuff I mean, I have to act against some crazy stuff that might appear like CP or something insane - then I'll definitely go to the police). I really hope I never encounter anything like that. But this is the internet so you never know.

    Besides obviously illegal content and threats against other members, I have no problems though, I won't ban or police anybody unless they reach the point where I'd actually feel obligated to report them to the police (which is a circumstance that has never happened in the history of this board afaik)

    Hope we can get a group together soon for a browns tailgate.

    🖖

    This is great thanks very much.

    UK fans that hate twitter such as myself don’t get much if any chance to interact with other Browns fans. So again, thank you.

    Don't forget that nickers and others will whine and moan unless "be equal" on the poli board is translated to "Heads Republicans win, tails Democrats lose" in addition to reposting threats of felony murder. Drawing a rifle scope around a picture of a Democratic politician is a threat. It shouldn't have to be explicitly stated.. that's not equality.
    And so whoever does the modding of the poli board will need to give in to those threats exactly zero times, because it's never Just This One Thread. It's forever.

    I would suggest the political board not return at. So far everyone who mentioned it on both sides sounds like a twat.

    This shit ain't nothing to me, man.

    I added a bunch of cooler home page features, including AFCN standings since they are nice to look at for once :hng: - and cut the reaction emojis down and added custom ones.

    I didn’t even have to put in my password. Great job on the board. I did enjoy the Poli board though. It was very funny stuff, when they would argue and call each other names. Oh well

    And they don't really know even what they're talkin' about And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve OZZY

    I won't let you down, I'll will argue with people on this forum, and call them colorful names like "Doo Doo head" and "Chickenfucker", and tell them their mothers smelt like a hamster and something about elderberries.

    You will be entertained Browns149, oh yes.
