TBH I still don't really like the succzone being treated as a D&D offsite because it's both boring and gets us in trouble, but I see a whole lot of irony in forbidding people to talk about QCS posting considering that QCS's stated purpose is for posting about posting That said it's still inviting unwanted scrutiny so keep it brief I guess

Lib and let die posted:i'm just wondering if this means that it's modmin-sanctioned behavior to get a thread you don't participate in, in a subforum you don't participate in, closed by making such a tumultous spray of paperwork that you force the moderators to shut the thread down because it's impossible to keep up with the sheer number of bad faith reports rather than punish the bad faith reporters. sir you'll find that the rule is against 'posting about posters', IE ever saying any poster is bad, not 'flooding the report system with spam until the mod team gets so bored sifting through it they just close a thread you had nothing to do with but were mad your posting enemies started'.

Speaking as somebody who's been in a lot of mock threads over the years, mock threads are kind of a toxic environment, and all it took to convince me was dropping in on page like 10,000 of a mock thread I hadn't seen before (it was the xbone one I think???) A mock thread like that which is also kind of a drama magnet probably won't go over well, but shoot your shot if you want! The succzone is itself a mock thread, really, but it's about politics which is actually important rather than about (eg) how much Andrew Dobson sucks, which is true but not worthy of as much thought as it received

Posting talk should, imo, not extend for much more than a page at a time. Around that point is when thread quality starts circling the drain as folks get increasingly obsessive and want to score their thread points.

D&D as a forum was never meant to be a place where you get to mindlessly scream and complain about things you don't like, and get pissy when people who know more than you explain to you that the solutions aren't as simple or easy as you think. When someone asks "why hasn't Biden closed the concentration camps yet", and another poster explains at length why doing so is complicated, and the response is "haha lol look at the concentration camp apologist"... that's not "disagreement", it's just high school level idiocy. And banning those users from the forum would not take away from it one it — in fact, it would improve the space considerably.

World War Mammories posted:my liberal dad had the incredible insight that “it’s kind of amazing to me how we all just kind of picked Biden.” you know, it was all so contentious, but somehow everybody just sort of simultaneously agreed that it was over! this after I spent two years trying to get him to understand the concept of manufactured consent i think chalking it up to manufactured consent isn't right. there was nearly a year runup of stories in the media about how biden was too old, too white, etc, and that it would be one of the other 20 candidates for reason x, reason y, reason z. the media+party was trying to build a base for anyone they could find palatable (kamala, etc). and it just kept failing. then obama made his call, the media reported on the call, and the party loyalists agreed that yes, god-king obama must have his will obeyed and that was that. there wasn't a broad and wide effort to build up a narrative for him, it was just decided in one day that only one person's vote mattered and everyone else needed to do what they were told to do. and since millions of people willingly agreed with this because they've spent decades working themselves into a frenzy about the Enemy Party , nothing else was needed if any consent was manufactured, it's that the parties are notably different from each other. the only real difference is democrats want to allow abortions a few weeks longer during the term than republicans, and republicans have a better stance on guns than the dem platform, despite trump being the only politician who's done anything significantly anti-gun in 25 years
