i feel pretty strongly that keeping OT one big mass of crap is a great thing and i'm gonna use this split to summarize why.

i feel like being forced to see news, politics, and general life threads as a young internet-addict when i might've only wanted to see entertainment news really forced me to grow the hell up and become a better person. it seems fucking crazy to say that I might've gone down some kind of alt-right path without the liberalizing influence of certain internet communities, but it really could've happened. i want the forum to make it hard for the next generation to browse in a bubble without news and politics free bubble
:nintendo


Oh jeez, he was almost an alt-right.  I hope Excel doesn't see that and demand they not talk about what they almost became.


I want to ask what the fuck "vilifying journalism" means but I just pussed out and joined the brigade saying they don't care about women or poc.

Some sort of affirmative action, that is gender-based instead of race-based. So basically some type of quota system that tilts the balance of posts towards more towards women. It worked in American universities, i don't see why it couldn't work on a forum.

:neogaf

I heard Russia has some farms you can contract at reasonable prices, maybe they could provide more women users on demand ?

I wonder why Cerium thought it would play out any differently than "Era's women problem"...

How do mods know when some is arguing in " bad faith"
That is a good question. Here's what the FAQ says, to give examples:

Do not argue in bad faith: Honest dissent and debate is generally welcome. However, we do not welcome disingenuous arguments, deliberately ignoring or refusing to acknowledge counterarguments, or arguing for no reason than to upset other members.
Those are good signs that someone is not there to debate in bad faith. We can give the benefit of doubt to users up to a point, but when it becomes clear that they are just being malicious and disruptive, we take action as necessary.

No moderation decision is made in isolation. Moderation always involves a conversation between multiple moderators, and debate is encouraged. The team acts collectively. There is no individual moderator who banned you; the team banned you.

Quote from: SigmasonicX, post: 11095140, member: 1443
We recently had a thread about an animator arrested for possession of child porn, but discussion shifted toward insinuating that there was a connection between him having worked on My Little Pony and his pedophilia. There were tons of drive-by posts with "mild shock" and how they weren't that shocked, and when I pointed out how the framing of the topic would lead to this, I was accused of being a pedophile myself. Once the title of the thread changed, activity dropped like a rock and almost completely shifted to discussing the actual arrest, which goes to show how many people were coming in just to rag on fans of My Little Pony, not to discuss the actual topic. Despite this, there are zero warnings in the thread.

There was another "brony bashing" thread a couple months into the start of this site where similarly, very few people even got warnings, and the person who said bronies should kill themselves only got like a week ban.

Moderation needs to treat posts like these more seriously.

So everyone on a 2-3 day ban doesn't show up, which is an ever increasing number apparently even as people roll off bans.

No. They said that people who were approved to post show up on the counter.

Contrapoints is much worse than whatever he does, screeching included.

Contra is funnier than Hbomberguy solely by virtue of not laughing at her own jokes every five seconds.

Granted, I like HBG myself, but I really wish he'd stop doing that.


I myself never understood why someone would watch Jim Sterling voluntarily. Boogie, Sterling and GameXplain are the scratching the bottom of barrel 'stars' of YouTube

- Sterling is fine, he just needs a goddamned proper microphone.
- Not a fan of the GameXplain guy's voice, but afaik, that channel doesn't do comedy.
- Boogie was fine like 5 years ago when he would just talk about how much he enjoyed some video game instead of turning into the current dipshit "centrist" video game political pundit that he is today.
