this thread has been an invaluable safe space, and a source of relief in hellworld for myself and many marginalized posters. if the "PYF Chinese car crash PWNAGE" thread is gassed, the consequences will be on you, Jeffrey of YOSPOS.

As long as we don't try to damage, enchant, equip, block or target it, we'll be OK. Destruction effects (or "bury" in pre-6th edition nomenclature) still work. However, because we can't target it, we'll have to play something like Wrath of Jeff ( 2WW, Sorcery "Destroy all threads, they can't be recreated." ) on C-SPAM.

that thread is so easy to troll that it was kind of sad. like it's never a good sign when someone pulls poo poo like this out over joke probations

What is it with this genre of post where someone adopts this sort of voice where they're calling something out but then they very consciously don't capitalize a sentence but definitely end every one with a period? It's got this very "I'm a small guy taking a stand" energy to it and it's weirdly consistent

Fun fact: if you put an aura into play (without playing it) you can put it on a creature with protection from that aura, since targeting is only checked when the aura is cast

E: nope Nevermind I’m wrong. This is true, but protection still prevents being enchanted by stuff you’re protected from. However, this trick DOES get around hexproof, etc.

Total guess, not gonna check to verify and absolutely will keep saying this even if corrected: 90210's Donna Martin and the former president were pictured, someone said Lady and the Trump and factions grew around how they felt about the spelling.

yeah it's pretty engrained as a realistic view to combat total denial. i helped a highschool modernize their ap program and it was a pain getting instructors to understand the topic of challenging collapse narratives enough to teach it. in practice it was review for the students, they'd participated in climate and anti-gun walkouts since grade school

that’s what autocorrect on a phone or iPad does if you intentionally decapitalize the first word.

e: you can see a similar thing with people loving up really easy homophones (won vs. one) in posts they’re just using dictation badly

DrPossum posted:

I'm naive enough I don't even know if this thread is for legitimate feedback.

Between the Trump thread and the Musk thread, when the moderation choices turn into something like "giving a child who likes to dismember bugs for fun a bucket of flies" it's only going to be entertaining for a small subset of people. I can understand that the Trump thread is probably a disproportionate nexus of mod frustration, so maybe this was inevitable. It sucks because I enjoy the free form posting, there are/were some fun people there, and the topics self-generate content I find entertaining.

Also, and maybe I'm being too thin skinned for this subforum, but getting branded with whatever flavor of blackface that av is hit me as something I didn't expect to be passable on these forums in 2023
