You guys know you can put all the sub-board posts in the main board or hide the sub-boards completely as part of your account settings, right? The boards don't have to be separate from MM if you don't want them to be. And, if you want the makeup posts filtered, they can be. Everyone wins. Because truly, if you get rid of the sub-board, the makeup posts are going to go back onto MM's main board, not BS, they always do.

Here:

Modify Profile>Account Preference>Expand Sub-boards/Hide Sub-Boards

STOP BEING RATIONAL AND OFFERING LEGIT SOLUTIONS TO THE NON-ISSUE AT HAND!!!!

LOUD NOISES!!! SPARKLEMOTION!!!

ruh roh, NB is going to get you. Look, I love talking, but even I can't get a thread to 5 pages myself. Nor did I spawn the two pager on ML.

I wish the government would come in and legislate this board. That way it'd be out of our hands and we'd all be taken care of.

All I keep reading is, "I want to talk to my friends, and I don't want any outsiders butting in."

And even if I did say that or that's how I felt, the MM board voted on this, it was approved by our moderator. It's not like we were able to create this without any feedback and did it on our own. The person who made the suggestion originally isn't even a twirlie, so really, we're not being exclusive at all. And like I said, even if we were being exclusive it was a democratic decision to have the board. Why does it matter if it isn't affecting the board you moderate?

Yeah, why is the politics mod getting her panties in a bunch over something MM voted on? For the record, there were approximately 6 people in the vents thread that had complaints about the subboard - not exactly a whole lot of the board.
Instead of adding global mod duties to your plate Pixy, I think you need to step back and chill out.

LOL, did someone increase the size of my The Count picture? 'Cause it sure wasn't that large when I posted it. Now I'm LMAO.

You hear that, pixy?? Mods can't have opinions.

Dude, pixy doesn't want to delete your board. She just thinks it's lamesauce and she's not the only one. Come off it.

[pixy0stix]

Can't have an opinion, can't participate in a debate, can't breathe, can't have a human emotion. Which right now is highly amused. Whew, people got highly defensive when they get called silly and useless.

BUT F&Bers ARE DUMB! WE NO WANNA TALK TO DEM! YOU CANNA MAKE US!!!!

I guess I'm the only one who took this whole proboards thing as our change to mingle and change things up a bit. I should stop posting on those bumptype boards then, hmm?

I'm all over a bunch of boards, too. I figured this was a great time to mingle. Problem is, I forget where my random posts are, so it ends up being a bit of a post and run. Oops.

I am doing the same as you. I was thinking I might get yelled at but not yet so I am going with the flow.

MM makeup talk had taken over the tax board for a while.

Pixy - why are you taking this so personally? There are many duplicate boards. The MM makeup group has chatted together for years. Why are you trying so hard to push them onto a different board?

I think you need to take a deep breath.

I don't understand why people think pixy is all hot and bothered by it.

[pixy0stix]

::high fives everyone:: 10 more pages to go and we'll be at nest level of debate!

[LoveTrains]

It's not really a debate. It's just us telling pixy that we already had a makeup sub-board on the nest (it was the tax board) so its not liking we are doing anything new. We are just trying to explain how it came about and why we have it.

If you can change the settings to view it the very way you want, dude, move on with your life.

The fuck.

DO I NOT EXIST?

[Deleted]

Yeahno, I suppose it's not possible that there aren't a whole lot of other posts going on tonight and we just feel like talking.

Newp, can't be that. Must be that we're hellfired all hot and bothered and don't agree that your explanations settle the question.

I tried to warn her. She's so fixated on me that she had to post in the global mod post. Since I'm not neutral and all. Can't question! Toe the line!

Because she (and others) keep asking questions. Why didn't you do this, why didn't you do that. If she wasn't bothered and/or didn't care, then why are people still asking about it? We have explained one million times why the sub board was created (with agreement from the board and mod) and this is still going on.

Dude, because we don't agree that your explanations settle it. In fact, we're still curious because they don't make sense.

Not because we're ready to burn shit down.

Well, I'm always ready to burn shit down but that's because I often like to pretend I'm a character in waiting to exhale.

you girls seriously just shat out 6 pages of INAUGURAL boardwar over MAKEUP and not one funny gif at all?

THIS IS SOME HONEST TO GOD BULLSHIT RIGHT HERE.

Hey, I figured the smear campaign already started, so why not?

Angryharpy, I think this post may have just bested your 5 page Fat Tuesday post about nothing.

A makeup sub-board sounds even more boring than the fashion and beauty board. It doesn't seem like that big of a deal. If I were planning on lurking on MM and it was a bunch of makeup posts, I'd bug out with a quickness.

The @ posts don't overtake PCE too much, but if they did it would be annoying and a @ sub-board would be a great idea for non-@ having people who didn't want to wade through that crap.

But do you think the @ posts don't take over because we are, dare I say, "brave" enough to actually venture over to a non-CEP board? Which is what they are there for?

Also, FUNNY!

It is cracking me up that we have a six page post about MAKEUP. Makeup is much more controversial than I ever imagined

I think it's more fun if everyone who wants to discuss makeup do so on the same board, since more posters = more fun (IMO), but whatevs.

I think everyone needs a stiff drink and to calm the fuck down. I like the makeup board because my real life (meaning my job) is full of enough stress and drama, so I come to the boards to discuss mindless shit like glitter eyeliner.

:drink: Cheers!

This has to be the stupidest fucking thread ever. Seriously. As a REGULAR on F&B even I had to take a break because it can get overwhelming on the board with the influx of newbie posters acting like they're seasoned pros. If you have doubts check the glittered eyeliner post.

I know what it feels like to be part of that board and feel like I'm respected less for it due to the rep of the posters there. Pixy, with al, due respect you sort of started when I needed to take a break. The Blush shit and some of the posters were getting to me. to go for a more serious board like P&CE to MM it's hard to even imagine a transition reasonably. Especially when you see what is posted sometimes and your eyebrow raises like you got a bad lift.

I love me some makeup and clothing. However if you want a solid (emphasis on solid) recommendation, you'd get it from maybe two or three posters.

I totally understand e sub board, their reasoning behind creating it, but for the life of me I can't figure out the fucking fuss over the sub board.

Also. OOTD. every other board had an OOTD thread. They could have consolidated that shit for camaraderie sake. But it was kind of pointless. (plus where else was ML going to shit talk about the F&B posters?)
