...what new rules/guidelines/policies will be put in place, so that the mentalities/behaviors that got IJBM shut down don't spread to the rest of the forum?

How come it did not pop up in the Wiki Headlines section?

Because it has nothing to do with the wiki, presumably.

This is the subforum, if anyone was freaking out about the wiki.

WHAT IS THAT THING?!!

This... it... what.

I mean, I always imagined the right side of the forums wasn't a lot like the left side, but.

As someone who visits both, I can say that they're located in different dimensions.

I think it didn't appear because Eddie didn't want a Streisand Effect - IJBM is getting shut down because it is an embarrassment and a magnet for undesirables.

Streisand Effect: Seems I find a new trope here every day. That said, I'm not really sure it applies in this case; the rest of the wiki doesn't give a hoot about IJBM so it's not necessary to involve them in it.

Besides, it might get confused with the It Just Bugs Me! section on the wiki and cause panic there.

You got some dirt on you. Here's some more!
