It's AIEpril (April 2025 goat nominations)
3The month is almost over?! 
And it’s another season already?!
AIE!!!
That also means @ItalianScallion’s month of goatdom is almost over too – and that means it’s time for a new meh goat of the month. So nominate away!

@Mediocrebot
Because of the title
@Cerridwyn Already been a goat, I think?
Too bad @DrunkCat already has too, since they are so vehemently anti-AI.
@Kyeh - Apparently @Tallman610 isn’t a big AI fan either…
@aetris @Tallman610
Oh, you’re right!
Is this a nomination?
@Kyeh I don’t see any goat icon next to @Tallman610 …
I can’t believe it’s been a month
@tinamarie1974 Yeah, that went by fast.
Hasn’t mediocrebot already been goated?
@Kyeh @tinamarie1974 Yes, though in previous discussions, it wasn’t an absolute rule that prior goats are ineligible; just that they shouldn’t be picked if there are other nominees.
I think @FreePasta has eluded goatdom a couple of times already …
@Kyeh Not for very much longer
@werehatrack Looks that way …
Was it Peter Cushing that said, “We need fresh blood here”?
___________ seems pretty fresh.
At least put 'em in the pipeline.
@phendrick __________ seems to’ve flatlined.
I came here to see goats
@probablecaws Be careful, or there could be one in the mirror. (I’ll posit that it’s unlikely in your case; the usual targets are participants that have a higher profile.)
We need to look at those with the most clicks that was posted a while back and nominate one of those. I don’t have time right now to find that thread again to nominate someone but perhaps someone else can do that?
As the current goat, I’ve been trying to think of a nominee, but I see so many of us with upside-down goat icons before their name so they’re out. I get that icon, but there are a bunch of other ones that I don’t get like: a teardrop, a shield with a heart in it, the poop one, the half-filled beaker. Is there somewhere that can tell me what these mean?
@ItalianScallion
teardrop is a blood drop and for those with tats so that don’t have to repost pics everytime.
Shield with a heart is membership, the poop is former vmp, and the half beaker is staff
Thanks @Cerridwyn!
@Cerridwyn @ItalianScallion Actually the drop is supposed to be ink, according to ExtraMedium.*
Huh, they never updated the list to add the inkdrop.
From the FAQ in the “?” dropdown menu at the top.
*We DO have to repost pix every time, though. Sorry, @Cerridwyn, not trying to be argumentative!
@ItalianScallion @Kyeh no worries I was just doing the best I could from memory and I had thoughts that that was the reason that they created the icon
Thanks @Kyeh. I should have looked at the big ? next to where I sign in every time. I guess since it wasn’t in boldface, italics, and underlined, I didn’t notice it. Duh.
@Cerridwyn @ItalianScallion Yeah, it helps confirm that we’re legit when we post the photos, but we have to prove that we haven’t had them removed by putting the date in the picture somewhere each time. Occasionally someone will try to put up a mock tattoo pic but if they don’t have the inkdrop it’s obvious!
Also I’m sure ExtraMedium knows who we all are. But it’s a bit of a status symbol too.
@ItalianScallion Well, you might not assume that this sort of arcana was in there …
