StrixNebulosa posted:IK stands for "idiot king" (or queen) and in general they're mini-mods. They can hand out sixers freely, have some mod buttons, etc. In most of the grey forums they have a specific use - watch a thread, have some responsibilities, etc. It's a great way to see if someone can handle power before they're modded - or vise-versa, to get someone to do mod actions if they won't commit to the full star. The game mechanics and lore of SA is deeper than I thought.

Why are people all " tee hee post in QCS about it for visibility"? OP seems to be taking this in stride, fully understanding the risks of the high stakes game of posting on somethingawful dot com. I'm assuming they are referencing a legendary tantrum from days long past.

i'm torn because i like to read the QCS meltdowns, so maybe when OP gets to that forum he riles everyone up about how absolutely lame the fyad posters are, but at the same time my god those threads are so bad let's just skip that forum entirely on this journey

I'd personally rather be chainprobed again (though I think it was only a couple of sixers) by FYAD than post in QCS though, at least FYAD's fun. QCS is pretty much the antithesis of SA. while still being just as important (occasionally) as FYAD.

I feel like we need to be sitting around in a hunting lounge, flames dancing in a lively fireplace. We'd be drinking the fine type of cognac and bristling over how shadow will never get past forums x or y. Then we get a telegraph of them conquering it with only a probe and we bristle and boor remarks how we never doubted their success. Godspeed OP

This is actually kind of fun. I hope the FYAD IKs actively go and threadshit in the threads that follow and don't just sit in FYAD and keep chain probing, but maybe I'm hoping for too much.

If the idea is to experience each forum as it is, it'd be nice to not have the same handful of comedic geniuses making all the threads about themselves.

📝 Travel update: As I prepared to cross the great Main Mountains to the South and enter Discussion, I ran into the rotating subforum, PCF, or P/C as their tag says. My schedule had more than enough to time for an additional stop, so I tried to set up a thread, but as I awoke that morning, I had discovered yet another agent from FYAD was now on my tail. I spent many hours in cat jail, but a small break in their shifts allowed me the chance to post my thread. Unfortunately, my time was limited, and my other threads suffered a bit of neglect. My pursuers add a lot of excitement and drama, but I can't say I won't be happy when I finally make it beyond their reach. PCF is a really great subforum, and I always look forward to its return every year. Unfortunately, I think not enough posters know about it. Hopefully, news of my journey can bring this subforum some more well-deserved attention. I then did finally leave Main and entered Discussion. For some reason, VGS is here, and at the top no less. I guess the S comes from the last letter of "Games"? This is perhaps SA's fastest-moving subforum. This is a place where your thread can be several pages deep, but still be very active. It's going to be very easy for my thread to get buried here. Most threads are kept alive here by posters keeping them in their bookmarks or by searching for their specific game. A general thread like mine might not get enough attention to survive here. Still, I think it's a good thread, and I hope it motivates people! I know it has already helped me start to accomplish a very small goal of my own. From here on out, things will start becoming ever more narrow and niche. It will be hard to find thread topics in many of these places to come... Shadow0 fucked around with this message at 22:48 on Dec 4, 2022 |

Keep in mind that while people basically only post politics in D&D, the forum is not actually limited to only politics. So you can post a thread about any interesting topic that can be discussed/debated

Coincidence??? Why hasn't this forum been merged with the MMO HMO? Thralls balls. What are they and how big? [Theorycraft] Help me design the Bard class Are Gnomish inventions really Arcane magic? Why or why not? Wouldn't the Jailer have been better served by letting all those elves continue to live and breed exponentially because more births = more deaths for his army in the long run?
