BRAKE FOR MOOSE posted:FWIW my post was a too-easy one-off joke with the expectation that just about everything posted in the first evening gets gassed, unless it turns into something funny or a legit gentrification thread Also FWIW I wasn't talking about yours cause yours wasn't just "lol stereotypes" and had some thought put into it.

To be fair, if the cracker barrel thread has any teeth it'll be like the one place on the forums where you can admit you're from the south and people can't just poo poo all over you for it, and you have to play along like hehe, yeah... but not me

Invisible Handjob posted:yeah, I get the argument that these are issues people need to be exposed to, they need to be called racist, all that sort of stuff. but not everybody is going to agree with you, if they are willing to be educated they can come in here and listen, and if they aren't they were just going to troll your threads anyways and send them into a derail every 2 pages. at least in here there's no tolerance for that. I think you underestimate the number of minority posters, and that combined with the burden being placed on minority posters to not have idiots poo poo up threads is kind of emblematic of the forum issues. Somehow ignorance is an excuse when it comes to white posters being lovely.

I don't disagree, i just think this is a great overall solution hell if there was a thread discussing historical and current discrimination facing Asian Americans that went beyond the misogynistic white men steal all our women poo poo you find on reddit I'd probably happily contribute to it it's more than emblematic of forums issues, it's an issue in the society as a whole and it's not going to be fixed just by snapping your fingers though the reality is you can either have constant conflict and derails of the threads every few pages in D&D, or actually make progress discussing poo poo you care about in here. it's not fair but that's how it is

Also, I'd like to point out, that since this is its own separate subforum, that means KM can make her own rules for it and enforce them however she pleases. That includes banning people.

Whoa what in the hell happened while I was gone? Also this forum would be a cool place for all kinds of minority and feminist issues to congregate (maybe feminism needs its own forum too)?signalnoise posted:To be fair, if the cracker barrel thread has any teeth it'll be like the one place on the forums where you can admit you're from the south and people can't just poo poo all over you for it, and you have to play along like hehe, yeah... but not me I'm from the south and I poo poo all over myself all the time but not on purpose.

This and the misogynoir thread are great threads that have really helped me articulate and develop my thoughts on the relevant issues. So as long as KM is mod I'm optimistic about a subforum. It's silly that it got to this point, but there's a chance to make it work.

Lowtax posted:Well first we should determine the main purpose this forum will serve. Will it solely concentrate on minority and race issues? I'm hesitant to start combining different subjects in here such as gender issues, because then we risk making subforums for every possible discussion topic. The only onerous task I ask of you is to do less talking and more listening. See where it goes off to. Let your baby bird fly.

TBH I'm excited at the prospect of having a forum about black issues (or maybe PoC) issues specifically, and there's a whole load of things that we can talk about under this umbrella without the forum being a catch-all zone for the social left. I feel like KM will have enough on hey hands as is, and I'm loath to call for decentralizing black issues for approximately the billionth time in history. I'm looking forward to contributing, without making my egghead white girl rear end obnoxious, hopefully.

I would like to keep this for PoC issues, but I want it to keep the name Negrotown. I think the rules thread lays out nicely that all other POC are welcome to make their own threads as long as they are not low effort OPS.

One request: "If the black folks here feel uncomfortable with your posting, or ask you to leave, loving leave. Respect our boundaries. Otherwise you will be probated or banned." I don't like that at all. Could you please remove that?
