Please read the part on creating threads.

The amount of idiocy here is astronomical.

Honestly, this is a BUG, not expected forum behavior.

Texas law allows for the use of deadly force against a perpetrator of aggravated sexual assault. So no, it would not be against the law.

In before derps.

Should I lock the old thread, then?

Peeving you still does not necessarily = your problem.

That being said, the fact that he is still making an issue of it obviously means that this was not a mutual "hatchet-burying". You also said "I thought I buried", did you actually make sure he accepted your apology? (Keep in mind this line of questioning is to determine why he is so vehemently opposing you, not whether or not this issue is your responsibility.) If he hadn't actually accepted your apology, the most you can (and should) do is to attempt to remedy that. Doing any more than that is a sure-fire way to endanger your position. You are not a staff member yet, attempting to butt in is not going to earn you any favors.

tl;dr leave it alone.

And that's what you should do. I'm not sure why this is such a big deal to you, but if the people against you are not sane and rational then it is the responsibility of the rest of the decision makers to override them. As much as you'd like this to be, it is not your responsibility to talk sense into your detractors. Besides, if things are actually as you describe them, it doesn't sound like you should have any problem at all.
tl;dr not that big an issue as you describe it to be. If you don't get in and are truly free of fault, that should indicate how immensely flawed their system is. You wouldn't want to be part of that anyway.

This topic has definitely been done before but you did put a fair amount of effort into this. The other one is also rather old, so I'll go ahead and lock it and allow this one to be the main topic. Don't make a habit of this, though.

1.) https://www.fakku.net/viewtopic.php?t=11630
2.) You didn't actually post any pics.

Without looking up alternatives to the ones you linked, the first one is probably your best bet.

That reaction tells me I should have kept my mouth shut. Sigh.

Also, stop making threads Shinji, they're terrible.

Might he be slightly inebriated? I linked the exact post.

My avatar is based off of me. The artist who drew it (merri) decided to give me nice cleavage, and I sure as heck wasn't going to complain about that. Did you not notice the resemblance to my picture in Post Your Pics? I assumed you had seen the image since you seem to frequent the thread.

What is it with people giving me sex changes these days? It's unnerving.

Hello!
I am weighing in on this topic because it has all the relevancy to the forums that many SD threads lack. (Not that other threads are worse or bad in any way.) Also, I have merely skimmed a majority of the posts, so if my following assertions have already been superseded, then allow me to extend my apologies beforehand.

I do not find CTFG alluring at all. I tried it, pre-CTFG days -- the ones you are so nostalgic about. I didn't like it, for the same reasons why I don't like any chat threads in any of the forums I've visited:
1.) Everything feels incredibly superficial. I can appreciate the "let's get along" and "love everyone" sentiments, but the brevity of most posts gives me the feeling of people saying things for the sake of saying them. Text, especially non-verbose text, has very little meaning to me. Someone I don't know very well could say "I love you" and merely mean "I'm generally fond of your company and enjoy chatting with you". While this is an extreme example, it is not unheard of and also the reason why I hold words at a far lesser value than actions or behavior.
2.) Unintentional shunting. (At least I hope so.) What happens in a high activity chat thread (so high activity that it would be better suited for messenger/chat room) is that many people can be posting at the same time. This can lead to conversation disconnects where someone gets replied to but the other doesn't, due to simultaneous posts. Your post(s) are "shunted" aside. Maybe you had a great one-liner or some meaningful interjection. Too bad, next page.
3.) Nobody cares. Threads like "What are you listening to" or "Say something random" are an incredibly huge "WHAT" factor for me. Why did I make a forum account and integrate myself into a community just so I could go into a thread and post two words that have meaning to practically nobody (assuming people even read it)? On that matter, why WRITE something if it holds no meaning to others? (You could be writing for yourself but with two words how much value could it possibly hold for you?) The entire concept is fraught with a frivolity that I despise. Plus, there's easier and better-accessible ways to do this, like Twitter.

Can you really consider the people you interact solely with in CTFG your friends? (If you interact with them outside CTFG then this point is likely moot.) If you had a spectacular experience one day or a sob story and you told them, would they remember it a month from now? Would you even be able to get to know them well enough as a person to be attuned to their likes, dislikes, and general personality? If not, does this mean my standards for considering someone a "friend" are simply higher? If loss of interaction with someone you don't know very well causes you a substantial amount of grief, does this not mean you are taking your internet relationships too seriously?

Regarding the aura of superficiality, if I wanted to go somewhere to exchange smiles and pleasantries I'd accept every dinner party invite from some friend's friend that came my way. On the internet I expect things to be more to-the-point. Once you connect with someone positively, you exchange a means of contacting each other better, and move on. I view CTFG (or at least the core concept behind it) as a means of gerrymandering around the stage of pleasantries, one of frivolousness and uncertainty I've come to deplore.

Price tag/cost:space is your only really valid argument. Both flash memory and platter disks are prone to read/write corruption, but platter disks have an additional risk of mechanical failure. As such, platter disks are more prone to the various states of storage device dysfunction. (This is what happens when people hear clicking or other noises.) When flash memory does end up being corrupt it is quite catastrophic, but no more so than that of your regular platter disk. Still, failure rates of both types of drives are quite low.

Fair enough. There's logic behind that. All I wanted you to do was explain yourself.
