What blog event do you think raised the biggest stink? The STP scandal? British T-Rex? Nate leaves? Tagged was stolen art? Something else?

kayceislost
kayceislost on Mar 16 '07 at 8:56pm
there has been a lot of 'scandalous' things.
OCandCO
OCandCO on Mar 16 '07 at 8:57pm
I am sure I missed some good ones too. I feel like there is always drama.

kidaro on Mar 16 '07 at 9:01pm
stuck_with_pins and rudeboyzach comes to mind. They were both kinda cool, but were caught copying other people's work. SWP made long and strange arguments about it too.

I actually didn't think the stp thing was that big of a deal. British T-Rex got pretty ugly at points.

Polyester Jones
Polyester Jones on Mar 16 '07 at 10:12pm

Polyester Jones
Polyester Jones on Mar 16 '07 at 10:13pm

sonmi

im gonna have to say the british t rex thing because..it wasnt like a scandal from withing threadless..it was more of an invasion and we were all threatened or something..when its something within the same people..it doesnt feel like so terrible i guess

but my votes are for stuck with pins and rudeboyzach
sonmi
   sonmi on Mar 16 '07 at 10:25pm
british t-rex was definitely most annoying, because it could have easily just come and gone without a stir.
esthergrondahl
esthergrondahl on Mar 16 '07 at 10:27pm
Are there actual "Threadless Fall-aways?" People who leave because they are bitter about something.
Polyester Jones
Polyester Jones on Mar 16 '07 at 10:28pm
what happened with all of those people? i feel so left out :p

What was the british t-rex thing? EH?
OCandCO
OCandCO on Mar 16 '07 at 10:31pm
b-rex was also like 20 dramas in 1 because little mini scandels broke out with all the sexism and racism.
esthergrondahl
esthergrondahl on Mar 16 '07 at 10:31pm
Did a bunch of people vote for the T-Rex who were all from England or something? Also, what about the people who leave?
MeLa de Gypsie
MeLa de Gypsie on Mar 16 '07 at 10:32pm
T-rex was annoying... but the STP was the biggest to me because it affects everyone.

This will explain everything.

Esther. Most of the people who leave eventually come back. I can't think of anyone who has left permanently.

basically kiddos from luelinks submitted it, kind of an inside joke for them. they all registered for accounts and 5-ed them, en masse.

steve swartz kind of left from bitterness... after threadless put up their "you can't advertise a shirt on a competitor site" rule. i miss his old shirt reviews.
esthergrondahl
esthergrondahl on Mar 16 '07 at 10:52pm
So.....If a threadless member breaks some rules, then, they get in some sort of trouble?
esthergrondahl
esthergrondahl on Mar 16 '07 at 11:00pm
Yup, the T-Rex thing looked like it was pretty annoying. I joined at the beginning of Feb, so I just missed it. Wow - I got to comment 250 and I was no where near reading the whole blog.
sonmi
   sonmi on Mar 16 '07 at 11:04pm
you don't get in trouble, but a blog he made that did advertise such a shirt was deleted by threadless, and he took it hard.
