what are you on about? pretty sure hippie has had more admins online than tg servers on average
they just don't intervene unless necessary, that's why hippie is and always was a better server

yikes

Tl;dr Nigmins strike again

Unironically it killed manuel pop for the next few rounds
They banned every command staff mid next round and it was pain

lol hippie

now this is epic

gaslighting this bad shouldn't be acceptable on general chat.

cringe, dont buzzwordify "gaslighting" please, it has an actual definition that isn't "saying something i disagree with"

It's not that I disagree with the statement (I do), it's the fact that the claimed reason for being banned versus what actually happened are 2 completely different things. They are (purposefully or not) misrepresenting the situation to mislead others, or at best misdirect the conversation to a theoretical situation that did not happen.

The bans were definitely regarding the orchestrated OOC into IC bombing and less so on suiciding (although some were caught in the crossfire), which should be apparent given we let people suicide literally every round. Claiming otherwise is indeed gaslighting the situation. We can however disagree/agree on the bans and length for it, which wasn't even brought up in the original post I was quoting.

If you'd like to explain how the initially post is an accurate representation and in fact just me disagreeing with his/her opinion on the situation, feel free to correct me.

they were stating what the actions of the banning admins implied, a reasonable, albeit incorrect conclusion. gaslighting regards claims towards absolutely unreasonable conclusions and using peer pressure to make the target begin to believe it, often to the point that they doubt their own clarity of mind. it's often used in cases of domestic abuse and should not be devalued as a word.

I take back my saying the deathsquad round was the worst griff I have seen in my seven years of playing, this is worse

also lol in retrospect at people saying "you should have just banned everyone involved and then nobody would have an issue," that sure aged like fine feces

I disagree coming to the conclusion that people got banned for not wanting to play the game is reasonable, especially on the platform where you can view the other person's side easily by going to the relevant appeal this thread was built upon.

I also disagree with the notion that because it's used in the context of domestic abused it loses meaning when used in other instances where it can be applied.

To my knowledge,mischaracterizing the situation to pit people against the administrator in question to the point where presumably people (including potentially the admin) may begin to believe it to be the correct series of a events or otherwise degrade the admin(because admin bad!), is a fair use of the term gaslighting. If that is not the correct use of the word, my apologies, but I still think the blatant mis-characterization of what happened is unacceptable for this section of the forums and "very cringe".

i remember playing hippie and somehow ending up as security when no one else wanted to play it there and a chemist thermiting all the cells open (at that time the windows had been replaced with walls by that guy who hosted them for awhile whose name i've forgotten) so job was over because i had nothing to repair them and had prisoners to babysit and an armoury to protect, nobody else was going to do it and there was nobody to catch the guy to prevent him doing it again. so no hippie has always been shit for the reason you're saying it isn't and i doubt it's changed

Cuckogen its really hard not to be shit at administrating which is why from your comments i know no one has ever offered you the opportunity to try it

it is hard, but how far do you have to go to think banning half the server for 3 days is something that benefits anyone? if you are under influence of hard drugs and alcol you should be away from the game

you can land on people below

The people you should avoid are those who speak in faux-apathetic lowercaps at all times. To be clear, I'm not talking about people who speak without grammar in game in order to get their messages out faster. I'm talking about those who sit down to compose an image board post with all the time in the world and willfully choose to omit punctuation and capitalization. They are not doing this to save time. In fact, they may take additional time to redact habitual grammar from their posts.

Their motivation for this style of posting is simple. They are trying to present an aura of apathy. They want to communicate: "I don't care about anything, least of all the rules of grammar." The reason they work so hard to cultivate this image of emotional invulnerability is because they are, in actual fact, extremely emotional and unstable people. If you become close to them you will catch glimpses of the volatility lurking beneath their patchwork mask of cool indifference. The lowercaps poster will silently catalog transgressions you have in its eyes committed. You will only become aware of them during the rare tantrum blowups that characterize these people. They must be avoided for your own good. The faux-apathetic lowercaps posters really could not be more pathetic.

if you use caps you're a dirty phoneposter or a tryhard, simple as

I use lowcaps because sometimes I just wanna rattle a post out and be done with it. On occasion I'll start a post with grammar then give up halfway thru and start winging it bc i realize how pointless the argument is at some point

If I'm actually serious about something I'll use proper sentence structure, but when you're hutposting (or the modern equivalent, general) its just not worth it. Not everyone will even bother reading your post, just like I'm sure many will skip your analysis of lowercap posters lol. There is some modicum of truth to what you say though.

also loling at arianya deleting peanut posts in a peanut thread

On another note I'd be more careful calling people pathetic when you posted catgirl porn on a games github bc you were afraid said game was going to remove your fetish content.

Reason: Shitposts go in the hut

imagine upholding the shitposts go in the hut rule when there is no hut

should've posted in the hut

Did comments really get deleted for being "off topic" in general chat - our new hut?

It also works for making a joke. If I say something sarcastic in proper grammar then it isn't obvious compared to typing in lowercase caps.
