i understand what kendrick was saying:
we dont need forum admins to moderate threads and keep everyone playing nice
we are big enough we can tell others to fuck off (as many did to kendrick in the thread)

however:
i dont think this has any grounds for an admin complaint
kendrick wasnt even punished for anything

therefore, suggestion for kendrick:
why dont you use our gained freedom and tell misdoubtful to fuck off without immediately escalating to the highest tier available

We have way too many toxic peanut threads in these forums compared to fun threads. We don't need anyone shitting that thread up.

Not a fan of Misdoubtful using their forum admin powers to police tone to this degree. Was it a warning? No. Was anything being enforced? No. Was it still using admin powers to put a very obvious undertone of threat behind the "reminder" to stay cordial? Yes. That's lame.

It's like someone talking in class and then the teacher says "I would like to remind everyone not to talk in class." Like obviously it's directed at the dude who was talking, come on now.

Basically the commonsense translation Kendrickorium read was "keep being negative and you're gonna get got my dude *cracks fingers*" "oh no it wasn't directed at you just a general statement lul"

they weren't even being really sad or anything, just expressing an opinion that was perhaps uncomfortable. how soft can you be?

Asking people not to be a dick is quite literally the definition of moderation. Don't be such a donut.

suppose being called a donut was uncomfortable for me, therefore you're a dick. should you be warned for that?
where do we draw the line and who decides it?
the headmins do, but preferably not at something as silly as saying people's pictures are boring, yeah?

Solution: do nothing. simply allow Kendrickorium's dissatisfied post to exist. the thread will continue on as usual, at most an argument would be started

not wanting a thread to get derailed by contrarian shitposting causing a 3 page argument is not punishing wrongspeak. it's the most basic form of forum etiquette that has been the standard since forums have existed. if someone wants to soapbox about the perils of posting pictures of the video game we're all playing here then start another thread called "i hate picture threads they're dumb and stupid" and post to your heart's content.

me posting that I don't understand how pics with little to no context are amusing and then comparing that to watching a video of fireworks someone recorded is not "contrarian shitposting", friend

I'm not passive aggressive, I'm openly and actively outspoken (but you'd like to call it 'aggressive') and I always have been.

Just like I'll be very outspoken in telling you this:

Do you really have a leg to stand on calling me a Karen after choosing to jump to the extreme of making such a pissbaby self-victimized complaint that attacks my character and then slink away with a 'a-actually I didn't care at all h-haha'? You very clearly cared enough to make the complaint. Get a grip.

Now you actually are the victim of something: me not tolerating your toxic garbage. Congratulations!

you don’t need to be the great matriarchal protector of feefees, we’re all big boys I think, if someone doesn’t like a picture I posted i’m not gonna shrivel up and cry at the harsh toxicity

The best part is when people forget that the global forum rules still apply to the players club, even if the players club has to go into greater detail on some of them to keep it from becoming a complete dumpster fire.

Trends that kill a high effort thread with low effort posts that provide nothing of value to the thread and its topic are very much against the rules, and nothing about this or the rules about this sort of thing have anything to do with peoples feelings.

Spam is spam, and derailing threads is derailing threads. Neither are okay, and they aren't about to suddenly become okay either.

with that said: kendrick you little grinch. you fuckin little goblin. what were you thinking. quit living under the bridge and asking passerbys for the toll. don’t actually care that much i just wanted to call kendrick a little goblin bridge troll
