Well, if anyone wants to know the current state of the game, there's now a five page argument debating the removal of piss, with most of the admins either chiming in for its removal or shutting down people arguing against its removal.

for all internet projects there are two kinds of people who become admins: people who are very passionate about the project and people who are very passionate about becoming admins. every project starts with mostly the first type, but as time goes on new admins are more and more likely to be the second type. if the project has a lot of admin turnover and survives long enough then, inevitably, the end result is complete type 2 saturation.

No admin has come out strongly in favour of this, several are against it, the closest your summary gets to reality is a couple going "I don't care one way or the other. is piss upsetting people?"

The actual problem being discussed is serial pissflooders flooding the station with piss every round and several alternative solutions have already come up, like making pissing damage your kidneys, having piss cause stains instead of puddles that contribute to the fluid system, reducing the amount one person can piss etc. But I guess it's hard to turn that into an "admins are DELETING FUN game dead now" hate-on for the benefit of people who don't play the game any more.

Admin opinions as of page 5, when I posted that:

"Yes, I want it gone" x 2
"I don't care" X 2
"The people supporting piss are leaning very hard on slippery slope arguments" x 1
"No, but we should limit it" x 2

I stand by what I said, the majority of admins chiming in at that point were either supporting its removal or didn't care. You can argue that it doesn't fully cover the full nuances of the situation, but that doesn't change the facts.

And for the record, the thread isn't titled 'Serial pissflooders are becoming a problem'. It's titled 'Removing Urine' and everyone in the thread is debating about whether pee should be removed in its entirety or not. "It's actually about serial pissflooders and is being blown out of proportion' is just as much of a mischaracterization of the situation.

I wake up and there is a five page argument in the forums about removing piss. A quick scroll through shows that most of the admins posting in it have come out in favor of its removal. I post about it here, because the situation is absurd on multiple levels. At no point did garnering internet outrage points cross my mind.

Also, I just substantiated what I said, so I'm not sure why you're doubling down on calling me a liar.

first they came for the poop, and I said nothing because I wasn't a poop foamer
then they came for the piss, and I said nothing because I wasn't a piss flooder
then they came for the farting, and there was nobody to say anything for me

On a drier note, does anyone have opinions on the new ranching system? I've tried it a couple of times and it seems neat if a little slow. I don't yet have a handle on how often I need to feed them. The ranch area also seems awkwardly placed in botany on Cogmap 1 with the pens being far apart.

They also took down the Banned Camp, Dumb Pubbies, and Pubbie Tears articles from the wiki. Honestly, while I enjoy seeing jerkwads dunked on as much as the next guy, I can understand why they'd remove various outlets for open mockery of others. Ultimately, it's just a bunch of self-satisfied nerds pointing and laughing at worse people, and it both contributes to a rather toxic culture of """ironic""" bullying (something most online subcultures still struggle to deal with), as well as provides a scapegoat for others to excuse their own lovely behavior (i.e., "At least I'm not as bad as X"). Simply removing disruptive people from the community and, if necessary, denying their appeals, is plenty.

It looks like they did, and it fuckin blows because that forum was my favorite to pick though. I loved showing pals the absolutely bizarre one with the guy who made some really lovely edits of the game screen with fake logs and everything.

The other stuff I can kind of understand, but the No forum was special :(

All the stuff is still basically archived via the History pages of the various sections, so we can always go back to reread the greatest hits (on the wiki, that is, though you have to deliberately look for them). Honestly, the really wild stories were all pretty old, anyway, and the last few entries were just randos having generic meltdowns and the like. Think all the real grade-A weirdbeards may have moved on to other games (or just other servers).
