Moving riff raff threads to jff so you can enforce your own personal rules on them

It's Riff-Raff, so I guess enforcing rules for no reason falls under the no-rules rule.
Don't question it.
It was either that or keep joke-suspending people out of a thread. Which would you have preferred?

It's funny because it proves you're serious about fapping to cartoon horses on a forum on a website about memes.

I have my priorities in order, as you can see.
But serious talk: I simply didn't want that thread to become another case of this. To avoid another debate/dramafest, I figured it needs to be handled by someone that really understands the material. I'm the most qualified for the job.
that's pretty friggin lol that brones will forever be protected

It's funny, really. That would happen to a thread trying to be NSFW regardless of the subculture surrounding it.
Also is this website really the best place for posting it? Couldn't you just get people who want to see that porn and start an IRC chat or just PM each other the images. Why don't you get the people who take it seriously and take it away somewhere else so people who de-rail can't? Remove the need for the "guidelines" all together and not have to deal with any of the problems?

>I'm the most qualified to moderate an NSFW thread because I'm the most familiar with fapping to cartoon horses
Well ok then. It's not like any other moderators know the NSFW guidelines or anything. And it's not like the thread got moved to JFF solely so rules that prevent derailment come into effect.
I get that if the thread is going to be serious about its bringing fap material to a generally SFW site it shouldn't be in riff-raff, but shouldn't you respect the OP's choice? And declaring a thread your personal stomping ground is a little insulting to everyone else who's willing to help enforce, on their own time, because they want to. Especially when you're, no offense, not coming off as the most impartial mod here; it really comes off as you trying to get other mods to stop monitoring your specific group of users because you share a common interest.
EDIT: Since we seem to be in "lel fuck BSoD" mode, I'd like to clarify that I'm glad he's moderating that thread (lord knows I don't want to have to), and generally agree with the rules he posted (I don't like the idea of Riff Raff personally). I just don't think that moving the thread without OP request or establishing thread-specific rules that contradict the rules of the forum it was posted in is something that should be done.

Sorry if any of you took offense. But honestly, don't make this more than it is. Just leave one thing to me and lets not have any more fuss about it.

There is no agenda here. Just a desire to see a particular incident remain un-repeated
I cant really stop any other mods from moderating, so if you are really concerned, you can keep an eye on things to see if I'm trying to undermine the whole mod team or whatever. But I wouldn't have become a mod in the first place if I had disingenuous intentions here. You should see this as one less thing you need to worry about

"Sorry if any of you took offense. But honestly, don’t make this more than it is. Just leave one thing to me and lets not have any more fuss about it."
So what you're saying is that we shouldn't talk about this because you don't want to face legitimate questions? There are no bad consequences I see from speaking about how stupid this is. I think you just saw people posting logical arguments against your thread and don't want to answer it. Give us reasons why we should drop it.
Also while I doubt you have any (you're usually a decent mod), you could have become a mod if you had disingenuous intentions that's not really a good argument.
Also trying to pass this off as "drama" is just funny. Is disagreeing with each other drama now?
I mean if you really want to do this BSoD I could technically lock and redirect as a pony thread, now that it's out of riff-raff. Non-riff-raff rules apply to it now that it's in JFF
I certainly don't mind abusing my own power here if you're going to do the same, so you can move it back or step aside take your pick
@Spider-byte
You're right. while your questions were legitimate, I'm not interesting in answering them. You ask why a thread was even made to begin with. I simply couldn't tell you. People make threads because they can, and they don't always need to explain themselves
@Twilitlord
On allegations of mod abuse, I take that quite seriously. Much more than this entire endeavor.
Lets take that to the mod forum and negotiate properly. I'll start a thread
@Triple
Okay. I'm stopping.

If it was a simple as just another thread, it seems strange to go out your way to protect this one when countless others have been de-railed when they weren't aimed to be. What makes this thread so special to you?
I've never seen Blue Screen make a stupid decision or look like an ass for the entire time I've been on the forums, but it's finally happened. This is some stupid shit I'm seeing right here. Well, it's not too bad, and it's not like I'm holding it against your character. Just thought I'd share this.
Okay people, he learned his lesson. No need to rub it in.
This is pretty funny though. The thread was on topic for the most part. There was no need to avoid such serious questions of "Why clop?" How could you take a clop thread seriously?
I have the sudden urge to forget that this ever happened.
