Do not start this shit up. If you want to start playing identity politics and pushing quotas, leave and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Oh you still haven't seen anything mate

Let me clarify: none of us except maybe Yoshi care about appeasing faceless PC types. Clearly the words "stifle growth" have triggered some of the don't tread on me types (lol @ Nympho, god damn cheese eating surrender monkey). What I mean is that newbies won't find our in-jokes funny because they won't know the context. It's nothing to do with political correctness. I love that stuff as much as anyone on the discord but when dpad goes public I think it could cause people to bounce off. What I think growth crew wants is to build it up and attract new personalities so that we have new in-jokes and new things for shitpost kr3w to run with. What if that helps us attract the next MHK or Cunth?

I will keep that in mind.

I'll just say that I have rarely seen someone opposing PC and IP as much as OF and I have been on GAF for 15 years.

"I will say this much, though: Communities are always better when they have a healthy amount of female members, too, that's why I find the "dick"-thread titles and "primae nocte"-jokes a bit much. That's my personal opinion, though, and it bears no weight on anything, of course. Considering how thirsty Yoshi is, sausage fests can be scary ;P"

Yep, sure sounds like someone who doesn't value immutables.

Didn't you only come back because Reee booted you?

EDIT: To expand on this.
It doesn't matter if the above is true or not. But the last three years of GAF were powerful anti-everything. I don't remember much about OF, is all I'm saying.

You know Matt makes a good point and it's the reason Arc has a penis is a thread because we don't recognize gender here in traditional ways and she has proven herself to be such a gamer she has been honorarily entered into the kingdom of men. Anyone who can hang with us and handle our habits is a man in my book, it's just called being progressive.
 
I wish we had some LGBTQIZRNWB+ coloured women in here to represent their point of view.
 
Man, now I feel like the retard for having used the phrase "not a good look" in the Arc's penis thread the other day.

I mean I still think there's a certain balance we should try to reach between how much shit posting we have here vs actual quality content. And we should be at least somewhat mindful of giving SJW cunts ammo to use against us..

But the shitposter in me is telling me to stop being a figgot and realise shitposting IS quality content, amirite?

The only thing is when I read the first bit is I start to question if what I post could be qualified as "quality content". The SJW cunts are coming no matter what is posted, so I care little for that. The third bit is where I am comfortable inhabiting. Let's stay there! Find the nuggets buried in all the shit!

Opinions and feedback make the world go round, imo. Maybe you feel like you got it wrong now, but it's better to have aired what you genuinely thought, versus not air it.

It's a really complex subject. Part of why I'm out here with a ten foot pole (shut up) avoiding it. Lol.

I will say, at potential risk of stepping too far into the convo, is that wherever possible, one should choose freedom. Of speech, of thought, of anything. That's where the magic happens, and that's why the rules here are so bare bones, not me being lazy, lol. The idea is a focus on just letting the community be.

I do offer some support for not intentionally crossing lines that make us look unappealing in this stage, but that really needs to be up to you guys, the posters here, and that line needs to be pushed out as far as humanly possible.

Maybe use a different account without the big red "Staff Member" next to the name?

The others did it so they could keep their identities and keep posting.

As my identity is already blown, it just seems unnecessary to deceive you?

All opinions that don't have anything to do with the rules are mine; as such, please tell me to fuck off where necessary, for the kind of tone I want to set. I don't plan to mix my opinions and moderation.

Bar, if I had to rank everyone in our group in terms of quality content they bring here, you'd be somewhere at top of the list.
I'm sure many would agree.

If it says anything, when he left the Discord, I'd just said I wouldn't chase people anymore, because it sets a bad tone.

For Barsinister, I found out how quickly I was willing to chase.

My point isn't to stop shitposting, it's that if we prioritize shitposting at the expense of growth, there will be nothing to shitpost about in future.

Also, you're from Melbourne. The yikes not a good look hill to die on stuff is expected.

Your shitposts are the little turds that float to the top and refuse to be flushed. Stouffers, meanwhile, drops the giant self-flushing stink bombs.
 
I hope this thread is scrubbed before we go public. What if the Pope stumbles upon this garbage? The Queen?

I consider this thread dirty laundry so I'm perfectly fine with it being scrubbed for launch. As Mirabilis (I found out this is actually the name of a pornstar!) keeps saying, it's early access. We're figuring shit out as we go, both mods and community together. On that note, we should also ease up a bit on mods as they're humans who are learning the ropes too. A little bit of give and take will do wonders for us all.

Meme away on that last line.

I just wanna say I highly respect you for just using your own account both to post as a mod and as a community member.

I've never agreed with keeping mods a secret.

When I see some of the other mods post something as a moderator, I can't help but have part of me think "Who's this Farnsgoth?"

When it's you, or Mirabilis (we all know it's Kad) for example, I actually take what you say more seriously.

Lol. I love soy jokes. I think they're funny as.

And yes, I drink soy milk. And I like it.
I also drink oat milk, cows milk, and motherfucking breastmilk.

No shame here, bitches.

I do understand the choice. The two conflict. Like, for example, I can't call someone I'm having an argument with, over games, a narnsgoth-farnsgoth. That person is a contributor here, maybe even financially with D-Pad +. I would personally feel very insulted if a staff member talked shit on me in that manner.

So, it's kind of way for these prominent posters to be able to help us out, but not be subjected to these kinds of worries on their regular posting accounts.

But I understand your perspective. When you've been in the trenches with someone, for everything, come what may, that opinion means a little more to you. Although, as a staff member, I do have to ask you to take what they say about rule matters seriously, lol.

But, thank you. I hope that I can make it work, and maybe mods will seem more human again. More like the janitors they're supposed to be. A janitor mops up a mean spill, but nobody stands to attention around them or is nervous to express themselves. I'd like that paradigm to happen. I want El-style moderation and control through fear to die in the fiery pit it deserves.

I would only feel that way if I didn't know the staff member. I think once you know the person well enough you can shit on each other regardless of either person's position. So long as the mod never EVER abuses their power, it won't matter how much they talk shit at someone (so long as it goes both ways).

I don't tend to talk shit at people unless I know they can take it. And the best way I know this is if they post shit at me.

But I do get your point.
It requires a certain type of skill to be able to accurately determine if what you say will be taken as offence due to your position of power, or as a funny shit post from a friend. Having two accounts is just easier.

Not having a go at the other mods, of course, but I respect anyone who can pull that off ☝️.
