from time to time


you're either oblivious or we have a very definition of "from time to time", because I see you talking about this shit every single time I look at this website, and it's a massive annoyance to the vast majority of active users.

it's coming across completely disingenuous either way, much like your constant arguing. If it was up to me, I would have banned you a long time ago purely for being a disruption *regardless* of the subject.

Don't swim upstream

If multiple people tell you to stop, stop. Everyone can think they're the only person who's right and everyone else is wrong, but unless you can prove your point solidly, it's probably better to just leave it be.


@tomkh has been swimming upstream for months. Other folks doing that got restricted from the one liner and BBS. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I don't know if these decisions are up to gloperators or only to the admin

lynn: indeed "from time to time" definition is quite flexible. Tbf, I'm equally annoyed by your aggressive tone every single time. Peace!

even by pouet standards this is getting tiresome
So, again, what do you say to a dedicated AI thread on Discord? You won't even have to click there. Solution is around the corner.
added on the 2026-07-22 15:34:18 by tomkh tomkh
You already got the answer. What more do you want to achieve by bringing this up repeatedly?

Enough already.
added on the 2026-07-22 15:36:22 by p01 p01
Lol, I do in fact know the answer. Just let's not pretend what's going on here. You don't want to have solution. And you want to swipe problems under the carpet.

To keep things cool, I pinky promise not to overdo one-liner.

Lynn has leading.

I beg to differ uncx, I think p01 followed up pretty well
Ok shared leading then ;)

do i still get to design the hat?
I think we need to convene the demoscene cabal conspiracy council for that decision.

Just to remind: You've been warned not to take the piss before, multiple times even. Seems that you enjoy doing just that way too much though. So just to make myself clear as crystal: If you continue the kind of behaviour that you got warned for previously, here and also on other demoscene platforms, by staff members of this site and members of our audience alike, you leave us no other option but to take restrictive action.

havoc: if you think, I'm the problem - you completely misunderstand the issue. But I see you have to show off authority here. No worries, I'm cool, fonzie cool.

a bold strategy cotton
in the vein of this thread: can we finally get some moderation? why is this character still allowed to derail every single conversation here for months and months?
added on the 2026-07-23 09:31:01 by T-101 T-101
Well this is pouet still
I've noticed that the less someone is actually involved in creating demoscene products, the more they tend to talk about the problems of the demoscene and start endless multi-page discussions about how everything should be organized.

Bonus points if that person did some releases 10-20 years ago, came back with a new release (more often than not, with AI slop) in the last year or so, and then throws a hissy fit.

gloperators can only edit prods and handle change requests auch as changing links, adding extra links etc.

moderators afaik have certain moderation rights, such as locking threads, but afaik banning users is up to the admin(s). I think mods are trying to change this situation and I hope that this works out eventually.

unfortunately the current admin doesn't seem to be involved/interested much and/or is having a laisser-faire attitude, but I of course might be wrong on this.and keep.hoping gor the best.

Thanks v3nom.

It would be nice if mods had a bit more... moderation power. It's also a simple matter of scale, to rely on the several mods rather than a single admin.

Do you know if there is something the users can do to help/support this change?
added on the 2026-07-24 06:38:49 by p01 p01
It's your website, but it's quite frightening you are excited about enforcing stricter law and order. But, whatever tickles you. Interestingly, if you look at some latest prods, upcoming Assembly and other parties (there is lots of things going on), there will be plenty of controversy. I will stay away from this to not give you any satisfaction though, enjoy!
added on the 2026-07-24 11:18:12 by tomkh tomkh
let's once again explain this to you: it's not the controversy itself that's the problem. AI is inevitable but it's still avoidable. it's *you* being the constant heralder with obnoxious levels of unsolicited engagement on the oneliner/threads that it seems more an attention seeking problem than genuine interest in the subject. and that's NOT avoidable. and with the above post yet again, you just cannot resist, can you?

I'm personally vested in the topic, that's why it may come across this way. But this is your interpretation that I do unsolicited engagement, which is absolutely false. As I said, I'm not advocating for AI usage, I'm just curious what are positive sides, downsides and how people use it so far. Idk how clear I have to make it, but I also clearly explained why I was using one-liner as a communication channel, and also not doing it alone - with 4gentE and few others who were actively sustaining the discussion (not trying to cut it off). And when people pointed out they don't like this happens in one-liner (in this thread), I stopped + suggested alternative solution (dedicated Discord thread). What else do you want me to do?
