Bannings

@Pavel Motherfucker is so crude and low brow. Insults should be more interesting such as calling someone a pillock or cockalorum.

@Pyrephox I know that after a break-up, there’s a period where a person defines themself by their opposition to the ended relationship, and that’s natural and fine. I’m really hoping we start to develop a more positive identity soon, though, by which I mean defining ourselves in terms of what we’re for rather than whom we’re against.

@GF We’re for taco Tuesdays, no-pants Fridays, and the violent and utter overthrow of the capitalistic, white-supremacist patriarchy. And tea.

I’ve been a pretty long-time lurker on MSB, logging in occasionally just to see if a new game got advertised (increasingly rare), and I must say that it’s a good thing you had a split. Also the people who make new games tend to get run off for various reasons. Not sure how much of a fan I am of that.
This is something that has concerned me, as well. If I have any ‘hopes’ for this board, it involves the Helping Hands subforum, and that there will be room for people to talk about interesting ideas without having those ideas instantly shot down by people who have very specific ideas of how MU*s ‘should’ work and are all too gleeful to talk about how trying anything else is doomed, DOOMED and will never survive.
It’s something that I’ve heard game designers and potential game designers talk about for years and when people are already considering putting hours and hours of work into something, having a bunch of people all too ready to pour buckets of cold water on any idea that isn’t exactly like five hundred games that have gone before is very discouraging.
I’ve done some pretty wacky stuff, like run a Werewolf: the Forsaken 2e game over the fediverse. So I’m definitely in agreement, people get way too attached to their ideas about how things ought to be especially with respect to pretendy fun time elfgames on the computer.

This really does summarize my basic philosophy of life. Except that every day is Taco Tuesday.

@TNP “Mitch McConnell’s Necrotic Left Tit”?
I mean as far as creative cursing.
-
@crawfish I would’ve said Mitch McConnell’s Undulating Turkeyneck.

@Meg Someday, I’mma stop answering your posts…
…and you’ll always just have to wonder…
Someone’s permabanned because they said "fuck you’ to Ganymede in the middle of a drama firestorm?
Dude, I never even got to say fuck you to anyone.
These are the posts that got us PERMANENTLY banned.
It was at the time and remains even now completely arbitrary.
-
This post is deleted! -
@KarmaBum Right? I WISH I’d gotten a FUCK YOU in. Shoulda used the DMs.
-
Okay so seriously, why is Ganymede having this “Burn Them All”-tier ban-fest? Am I missing something here? I don’t get it.

I take it all back, these are horrendous breaches of decorum, smh

Also every day is no-pants Friday, for the lewd TS memes.

I know. We’re the worst. Look at all the vitriol! So many crossed lines!I also retract my statement about it being arbitrary. Derp is incredibly skittish of women with opinions.
-
@KarmaBum By Jove, I think you’ve cracked it.

I said ‘if you think those bans were all justified, you might as well ban me too, you cowards’
… more or less, that’s what I meant, they banned me before I could go back and clarify with the edit button. They count it as me requesting to be banned, whatever. Except they said requesting to be banned is no longer a thing they allow. And yet, behold. I am still banned.
Mummy Pun? MUMMY PUN!

@Sam-Hyde For real tho, I don’t think anyone knows, and honestly no one CAN know what someone else is thinking. At this point, it happened.
All we can do is make dumb memes and photoshop EXTREMELY ARTFUL GRAPHICS with faces crossed out that KB worked VERY HARD ON after some VERY HARSH CRITIQUE from meg.

He is so manly though, the way he was like, ‘I don’t know why you think we’re afraid to act, but we aren’t.’ Because really until he said that, it’s what all of us were thinking, that he just doesn’t have the stones — not that he was already visibly chomping at the bit, itching for an excuse to swing his banhammer and silence those pesky dissidents.
I’m glad he established his authority. As you can see on these forums, absolutely no one respects the admins at all, since they’ve yet to threaten anyone. Hopefully someone starts posturing soon, because comparing the activity levels on both boards, it’s clearly a truly necessary component for a healthy, thriving community.

Get posturin’ tez.
