Players May Not Use the Word "Lynch" In Games

feels good to see you finish the job on this one. great change.

723 is very hostile and very against the community. They made that thread an us vs them situation for themselves, and it shouldn't be that way.

incredible that you feel the need to comb back through an old thread to a whole post about people who aren't mods anymore for the sole purpose of showing the forum your entire ass. phenomenal unforced error. well done.

feel slighted that you didn't quote my more incendiary and combative posts from the same thread. can't imagine why that would be since your intention was to prove that I was being "unprofessional" in my 7th year at an unpaid volunteer job moderating a web forum devoted to a party game. they were good posts though so I'll repost them.

Here are the ones I suggested backstage but because mods are fascists none of my suggestions were used

asked politely to leave
escorted out by a gaggle of sweaty, pink-faced mall cops
removed during the night by the Lord due to not having marked their door with ewe's blood
carried off by a swarm of genetically modified locust/George Costanza hybrids
burninate

and of course the best one

raptured

ah, but you're saying, I have a nuanced view related to free speech and this is silencing my-

let me just stop you there by saying I don't care. no one on the mod team cares. you will not find a friendly ear on the mod team by demanding that you should get to use racist language.

i think UT got that i was joking. but for those who didn't realize. I was joking calling UT a fascists.

while i am in heavy opposition to his stance on speech, I don't think he is a fascist. im shocked i have to clear tht up.

yes.

I used to be gung-ho radical free speech etc because I'm a left-wing libertarian type but years of moderating a web forum has taught me that in a communal space you've gotta have *some* rules about racist/sexist language. there's people out there who like to use racist/sexist language to make other people feel bad because that makes them feel good or just because they get a kick out of rustling jimmies. you don't lose anything really by disallowing racism, but you do lose the voices of people who will just avoid the space due to discomfort. I'd rather have the 9 people who would just avoid conflict than the 1 person who loves to hurt people.

I'll just cap this off by saying I would tell you to shut the fuck up, but it's probably better to have people regularly proving that anime avatars are a handy marker for stupid posts that you can safely disregard.
