Seriously, banning one guy opens up the moderation slope and she shouldn't have to deal with that. MMM would stop posting if people didn't reply to him. And if he doesn't then just laugh at the guy shouting into the void.

'don't feed the troll' is like the oldest internet saying there is, you're already acting like you're entitled to someone taking a fulltime unpaid job to babysit you and a hundred other randos why on earth would anyone in their right mind commit to making your happiness with the state of internet commenting their responsibility

'if yall can't deal with unmoderated comments I'll just turn them off' is a perfectly reasonable policy for someone who isn't getting something incredibly rewarding from their comments section

Yes, but, again, it's not a matter of "free speech". This isn't some principled stand she's making, she just doesn't want to deal with moderating her comments. Also her standards for what makes a "bad" comment section don't make sense, if the person who was, according to other posters in this thread, speculating about children genitals and trying to get people to Google them isn't a problem but the people who don't want to deal with that guy who are.

Is there a physical disability or particular mental illness that compels responding to a really bad poster because if there is I know how I've been a beneficiary of it

Watching her actually intimidate Bastion is a wonderful little bit of characterization for both of them.

Considering what we've seen, advanced wrightery seems to be kind of similar to cold war, punch-card-based computing. So that's probably a very accurate description.

So this comic is good? I remember I started reading it years ago and then dropped it because I wasn't in the mood to tolerate its edgier subject matter involving children. And then I caught a glimpse of that one chapter cover that has a crude drawing on a wall of Sette eating a dick like what the gently caress?

But it's good?

When a man strides confidently and with purpose, it is easy to overlook that he has no legs. When he crawls on his belly like a worm, it's easy to forget that he can stand.

Rahm, the Black Tongue wright who helps Quigley and Matty. It's hard to tell since he's wearing boots and you rarely see him from the waist down, but he's got Invisible Man legs.

That's what it's like in the khert. Make one magical mistake and it segfaults and declares that Aspect of Your Legs, Yes Yours can no longer be found.

Basically, being a wright is like being a computer programmer, except instead of compiler errors everyone dies horribly.

Does anyone know what pun Ashley is referring to in Friday's comic? I've read the comic like, six times now over three days and I still don't see a pun in there. :confused:

She's back with a new page.

I discovered Unsounded through another webcomic's (Daughter of the Lilies) recommended reading list and subsequently blazed through the entire thing in about a week. I was so hooked that continuing my reading was usually the first thing I looked forward to after coming home from work. I love Duane and the dichotomy between him and Sette. It's really a different sort of webcomic, set far apart from the others I read with regularity. Unsounded is good.
