discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

[exlurker]

the casino is gone... how am i supposed to gamble away all my life's savings now /ᐠ｡‸｡ᐟ\ ?! maybe it's for the better.....

I think people the millonaires here spend their money by doing contests and giving the money to winners. Maybe that's a good substitute for you.

Okay, this is a bit complicated to explain because there have been changes, and more changes are coming due to external pressure.

Currently, there are 5 Prestige ranks, and as such, only Prestige 1 and Prestige 5 have anything truly noteworthy to highlight. All 5 Prestige ranks grant access to the gray zone (currently empty except for one thread due to what was mentioned earlier, and Jack is writing a new set of rules regarding that) as well as profile customization options, such as name effects, titles, profile music, etc., and of course the emblem on your profile that shows you have that rank.

The Prestige 2, Prestige 3, and Prestige 4 ranks are remnants of an old system that divided different areas of the forum for members based on their prestige level. Higher prestige levels gave you all the benefits of the lower ones, including Member+, and this is still the case.

I think having multiple zones at different prestige levels is good. That way you see what you want to see, and don't see what you don't want to see, and there is less friction and complaints.


Edit: I just got my first post automerge and that reminded me i wanted to ask if posting twice in the same thread and getting automerged means no activity points for the second post. Now prestige is back, I need to be a bit more money conscious.

So is it me or has this thread slowed down in the last few days?

Guess all those WTF refugees have gone back to the other site.

Im trying to be active but I also dont wanna spam. I have to get 2500 coins after all. Also weirdly I didnt come from WTF. I found this site cause i was hunting for a game i cant remember the name of. Still havent found it but thats to be expected.

Yes and no—after all, up until mid-March, many people were still free due to holidays, vacations, and so on. Now that it’s April, we’re fully immersed in work, studies, and responsibilities, so we have less time to spend here.

That makes sense.

anyone got anything nice planned for the easter weekend?

Hey! First post here. Mostly lurking, but I am wondering, how come I can't open any links to corrupted love?

Not really. Im mainly looking to catch up on sleep and rest. Nothing else really comes to mind

you have to get access to members+ first to be able to access that level of content

I have a question, what's is an WTF?

WTF stands for WTF, a forum that focuses mainly on discussions about lolisho topics, though it tends to lean more toward the gray area and often borders on having to move to the Onion network—if you know what I mean. They have subsidiary websites like Booru and others I'm not familiar with; I'm not very familiar with the forum—I've only been there a few times.

They have great content, and there are several artists and mod/game developers there.

Not really, because the content and its sensitivity don't vary enough to warrant five different levels. At one point, P1 and P2 gave access to one set of content, P3 and P4 to another, and P5 to the final set, but then the distinctions became increasingly blurred, and eventually you only needed to be at the Prestige level to see everything.

I see, thanks for the explanation, although to be honest I'm not that into those topics, but I'll keep it in mind.

I mean, not the whole forum is about that—they have their own section—but let's face it, that's what really stands out and sets it apart.

Honestly, I have no idea. In my case, that cute and sweet style has never been my thing, and even if there's more of it, as you say, if that's the main thing, it won't appeal to me completely. However, if I can and have the opportunity, maybe I'll take a look.

Deleted my previous account (p4) on here out sheer stupidity. The temptation is too strong so I guess I'm back on the grind.

Well, looks like we can't access any of the daily images threads atm, not even the public one.

Apparently, the mods are checking the threads to see what to keep and what to purge.

The waiting is the hardest part, lol

What happened recently? I saw some chats about the ban of photorealistic stuff on fuck95, then a few days later it's banned here too? I'm not mad, just didn't expect those two things to happen seeing as most of the people in lurking chat seemed against it.

I don't know anything about fuck95, but what was banned here was exclusively photorealistic AI images depicting minors. Basically because... well, I'll be honest and straightforward about this: it's basically a substitute for illegal content on the dark web using legal loopholes. It's not worth risking the entire forum just for the morbid interest that kind of content might generate.

I don't want to sound rude, but please, everyone, read Jack's post carefully, because I've already seen people saying that we'll ban AI games, even though he clearly and explicitly states that this isn't the case (unless it conflicts with the first rule).

Probably a lot of activitu took up in m+ and prestige with image creation, lots of threads, then someone had white kniight a break down, reported their concerns to a file hosting site for the website and the owner got a message that "get rid of this now or there will be problems". Alternatively they ran a scan due to full content being available (instead of bieng sharded, probably more expensive) and got a false positive which is also a problem and it led to a message, either way - it causes a disturbance in the force.

Learned a lot about different legislation and ways to stay available as well as with file storage as a thought exercise through it even if it turned out to be moot.

Honestly, I have no issues seeing photo-realistic AI images going away. It's very close to straight porn and there are sites for that if that's your inclination.

What concerns me is "semi photo-realistic AI". That's awfully vague and opens the door to inconsistent moderation and the potential for a moderator to use it as a cudgel against a member they don't like.
