Where money meets our opinions....

by the way why all the hate for strange fruit?

1) they carry sufu approved clothes

2) they really are an awesome store (have any of you even been there?)

3) their ads were not intrusive at all

there was no hate. miz and a few others just pointed out the weirdness of the name b/c in the US strangefruit = "dead black bodies swinging from a poplar tree". also most folks knew the store didn't mean it like that. the clothes on hangers were tha strange fruit. either way--there was no hate on the store.

and i think it's unethical (read:bullshit) to censor negative comments on companies or brands that are also board sponsors--especially the way guy had his thread locked on an AV board. wayne might own the board, but expecting some ethical/common sense moderating isn't too much to ask. ...and imo the mods have been really indulgent w/ a lot of the shit that gets thrown up in Trash.

yeah but one thing i DONT remember about superfuture is wayne being active in the least. only in the past few months has there been communication between the gods controlling this forum's activity behind the scenes and it's populous. why all of a sudden the "hands-on" approach? that's what i LIKED about superfuture was that it WASN'T a bar, and i couldn't get thrown out for saying what i felt like.

PS WHERE'S THE THREADS ABOUT TEENS AND THE RAPE ICON??

PPS WHY CANT I HAVE AN IMAGE IN MY SIG ANYMORE??

thats the problem tho... you think you can, but in the end wayne owns this board, can allow or dsiallow whatever he wants, ban whoever he wants, do whatever he wants. the first amendment wont stop you from getting kicked out of a bar for screaming obscenities and causing a scene, so why would it protect you here when you are doing the same thing?

personally, i dont care what you say, but i dont have a say in this.

Crillz--as for why wayne or the upper management would start stepping in lately:

i took a giant step back from the trash when there were threads getting made w/ naked pictures of ex-girlfriends. that was straight up bullshit and i even PM'd a couple of mods saying if ANY thread should get locked and deleted its that creepy hateful thing.

the danpat/[insert whatev]-girl appreciation threads w/ softcore tits out porn... :rolleyes:

edit:

what is unnecessary/annoying over-protected/mod'd is when miniprojects aren't allowed to use "trademark'd/copyright'd" names or the brands or boards. as if folks on here are making mad bank w/ brands' names on it. i'unno... i'm sure there are very good legal reasons. i just think it's annoying.

danpat was all over 4c*** before making her way here, she was screwed from the geto-go. but that really has nothing to do with my original point, images aren't speech, feel me?

wtf would anyone want another 4chan on the internet? that's why MODS exist for messageboards that are active to squash the bullshit, trolling, perverts, and racists.

so you're not against the censoring of images? images and not being allowed to post certain ones goes back to your original point of censorship.

of course, and i implicitly placed my trust in our moderators to do a good job of filtering content, which they are obviously NOT.

also i have to add that 4chan is the far more entertaining and informative forum if you filter through the CP, racism and all the other crap. i spend way more time there than i do here nowadays.

well, they're taking the steps towards doing it w/ the superthrash.

and DUM, i wasn't attacking yer beloved danpat. just providing some incite as to potential reasons why uppermangs would be encouraging the mods to reign in the trash.

crillz, that's just the thing you got to filter thru so much shit to get to anything good. and the one and only 4chan is enough for the internet.

its okay we all make mistakes

seriously though the ad system on here is pretty unobtrusive

i dont know if i agree with members like kane not being able to flog their wares, but luckily for now sufu members do have pretty open discussions about the quality of brands/garments

that being said, any useful discussion and new info seems to be dewindling.. i guess it's all been moved to superfashion where everyone tries to find out wHaR to CoP

The signal to noise ratio and wealth of new info is relatively low on superfuture these days. I am as guilty of this as anyone else as I mostly post stupid shit in the trash or belittle people for having no taste in movies. I guess the outspill is mostly due to this temporary suckage parallel to the business side continuing its slow but steady expansion (which is a good thing but might create some tension...). I don't remember the last time I started a thread about a designer or anything cultural that might be interesting and I do it a lot more often on other forums. Oh and Gossip girl 10 should be downloadable today, I can't wait even though the last eps sucked.

If true religion sponsors SUFU, I hope some girls from honestforum come over as well. We could have a seperate WAYWT thread for them. And if things ever get out of control, well trained sufu ninjas Chris and Still can take them out.

i love the true religions. they are great. in fact, whenever, i feel like i don't want to be banned, i wear my true religions. in no way, shape or form, do i perform any bannable offenses while wearing my true religions. i support the true religions in every way possible. so much so, that it would be impossible for me to be banned. it would be crazy to ban me since i love the true religions with such ardour. surely, the benevolent superpowers and their loyal mods would not ban such an ardent supporter of the true religions. i love the true religions.
