But that person was echoing a similar sentiment I've seen in this thread repeatedly.

Eh, I am not going to tone police your posts, but do you see how people would get defensive when you say the words you are saying, and other people also say stuff like that but are not coming from a good or genuine place?

Like, I have been around long enough to see you post on Twitter or in SaS or whatever and know you mean well, but not everyone sees you in that light, so they come at you like they would some of the other people who come in here and say lovely things.

I would suggest King Lowtax's Ghost, but that's maybe a little too grim. (and I genuinely appreciate Lowtax making a subforum, it's a good compromise)

Lowtax do you know that these threads exist because discussion of the topics involved was deemed inappropriate for general US politics discussion? You're proposing a second layer of ghettoization on top of what was already put in place. How about you just revert things back to before you came galumphing in like a bull in a china shop?

Did KM even hand out any probes that were longer than a day? Every probe I saw was well deserved and the length was light-handed. Honestly I don't think that having a total of a whopping three whole threads that have harsher norms is all that restrictive, but what do I know.

Yeah that isn't going to actually solve any problems. As my problem tends to be with moderation on the whole in D&D. But sure whatever.

We've upgraded our posting ghetto from a thread to a whole sub forum.

Come back in a year and it's gonna be a desirable enough place to post that we are gonna end up gentrified out of it.

A few did, but this is less about KM being a mod and more that D&D needs moderators that A) aren't thin skinned babies, and B) allow people to post freely as long as they aren't lovely about it. Neither of these things are solved by this.

They aren't different though. This thread or forum shouldnt even have to exist. It was created explicitly because one of the mods wanted black people segregated from the rest.

American political discussion and black issues are extremely related and we shouldn't need a subforum or even a separate thread to discuss them. Better D&D mods will make this kind of redundant.
