For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
For a trial period of one week, allowed avatar size has been increased to 256kb, up from 51.2kb. During this time, if the forum seems to be loading slow, drop by the topic in the Announcements & Rules sub to let me know.
A small reminder that our moderators can't change usernames. You need to directly contact an admin for that, and tehelgee is the jobless one so bug him about it.
To the many new members following Mr Zoat to our forum, I would suggest a quick read of our Rules. Don't worry, it's not a long post.
Pay special attention to Rule 8. We are deadly serious about it.
Sometimes, it just feels like NSFD should be renamed Tribalism. It's certainly an accurate definition. You're either in full communion with the current zeitgeist, or you're an evil, stupid, "insert enemy of the zeitgeist here" -ist.
No prob, I don't want you to feel alone on this. :)
Did you see how the election forum was after trump won? Think as one may of Trump then and now, the reaction from many people there was disgusting, s many rule breaks went on in there.
I don't even know if there was any legit punishment to some of the shit said there.
Exactly, politics isn't the issue, it's how debates in general are managed. It's also an issue in CrW and VS, and to some extent SB General and the War Room.
It could be about RWBY, or Star Wars, and the underlying issue would be the same. Politics isn't the problem, otherwise the issue wouldn't be everywhere too.
I couldn't stress this enough, it isn't about politics, it's about how discussions in general are handled. It's basicly "Stupid Shit on SB" in a nutshell, in a way.
