Indeed. Someone should probably set up a Google doc and get the ball rolling.
I'll do it when I'm not supposed to be procrastinating for my midterm tomorrow

In chad's defense I've had I think 9 separate infractions, hundreds and hundreds of shitposts, and my Posts to Liked ratio is an atrocity I'm not proud of. Im still here sort of so I guess things arent too strict...sort of -

cause I think something did happen where there was a severe loss of personalities. im not sure exactly when or why it happened. maybe it's just amiss nostalgia, maybe there are too many sub forums, and a chat room doesn't help. I sometimes got the sense the site worked too hard to make things nice for first year students, or parents that might be on the site - going so far as to star-out swear words.

do you guys even still troll healthscience? That was something that really brought us all together.

Sorry about the popups, I didn't notice them until just now as well. Two popunders appeared when visiting this thread. This is completely unacceptable and one of the third-party advertisers we use is doing it without our permission. I have disabled the 3rd-party advertiser that we recently added which may have caused the problem.

If you see another popup, please PM me STRAIGHT AWAY. Take a screenshot, and send me the URL the popup went to so I can track down which advertiser is causing this garbage.

As for the Google Doc, I think that's a fantastic idea. Let me get us started.

Thanks!

Any jab ive taken at any faculty has resulted in an infraction point. That is something i thing needs to be looked at. There is nothing wrong with some fun competition between faculties. And i agree, trolling healthsci, commerce and humanities has always put a smile on my face

Thanks for the feedback Chris. We will allow friendly faculty taunting. So long as no bashing/attacking is directed at a specific individual or user.
