my reflection on losing smooth3d and the state of the coli

[ThiefyPoo]

im not trying to sit here and preach and turn this into some holier than thou forum. there was plenty of beefing and fukkery when the coli first opened but yet it still seemed funner than it does now. all im hoping for is people to think twice about whether or not being so hateful and negative on here is really worth it. lifes too short to be like that all day long imo

Funeral home address was posted can we donate for flowers?

I don't view The Coli, TLR in particular as a "negative" place. It's socially unacceptable to give your unabated opinon on certain topics like race and I think this forum allows people to do that and often times without criticism. I think it's important to have this type of outlet to discuss topics and get "real life" opinions that you'd probably never get to discuss otherwise. Even if someone is getting at me, I don't take it personally.

R.I.P to dude though. I've had two close forum friends pass and it can be tough to deal with.

I for one, want to be more positive. I don't know if it has anything to do with me living back in the US and the overall negative climate of here, but I can tell a difference in my level of positivity and I hope to change that.

Also, like @Liquid and @Anothergirl said, if you all ban the term "cac" the positivity level will skyrocket. nikkas and all variations of is OK to say though

The question is why from time to time i see some suspect stupid threads being sticked? Why the good ones never past page 1?
I know you're only about the money

agreed. i would love for @cook and @Brooklynzson to tackle the issue of racism on here. a lot of which seems lately to have been going "the other way" so to speak. this is supposed to be a place that welcomes and embraces everyone regardless of race and a very small segment of posters are trying to make this into a black st0rmfr0nt. not cool.
i don't think you guys should worry about cleaning the forum up turning this place into a "sohh" like atmosphere either. that won't happen and honestly if it's going to grow to the capacity it has the potential to...some of the nonsense needs to go. those who truly have the Coli's best interest at heart will understand when you guys feel the need to make slight rule changes for the sites betterment. just my thoughts...
anyways RIP to Smooth3d.

How is it disingenuous? I don't think anybody here is grieving to the extent that his family is, obviously, but he's somebody that a lot of people here interacted with. It's completely normal to feel fukked up about his passing.

Come on now breh. We've been getting away with the term "cac" for far too long, and its hurt quite a lot of feelings here. Its the SOLE reason there's any negativity here.

I'm not sure this is the thread to discuss changing rules. We can do that another time. This was more a general observation and not limited to any one particular issue.

I rarely sticky threads, that's left up to the mods. Additionally, stickied threads have zero impact on revenue and furthermore, if you think forums make a lot of money you couldn't be further from the truth.

Like there aren't a few other derogatory names for white people.

 

[ScoopNScore]

There has to be some sort of level of camaraderie here. Ya kno. Like we can all still go at each other, shoot the shyt. But we are all still a family at the end of the day.
A family of the worlds greatest minds, IT certs, music moguls, and sports forecasters

That's the good thing about The Coli. One thread I could go to war with you and debate for days about something you posted, and the next day, I'm dapping n repping you because you posted some clever ish.
I hardly ever get a vibe of holding grudges like on other forums unless it's some repeat offender or troll, which in that case you just ignore.

I know and I wasn't trying to make it that. Im sorry.

The first part of my post is genuine. The second part is me using sarcasm and trying to vent my frustrations with the comments made by the two posters I @ed in the most positive way I could

Well you gotta check your staff then, a lot of trolls posting and the mods rarely act...
Plus stickied threads might not get revenue or whatever but it gets views, and usually these threads involves black people on negative activities.
Sometimes i could swear this is a WSHH spin off
