Mods, if you are banning and probating people that have a different opinion/stance/political agenda/view than yours, when does the debate begin to happen? Debate and Discussion does not work in an environment where everyone has the same opinions. It does not exist to be a special space for you to all circle jerk each other off and feel superior to anyone who thinks differently EVEN IF that opinion is offensive. Abusive? Sure - ban the hell out of them. Things need to change around here. This is not LIBERAL DEBATE & DISCUSSION. This is a place where people pay to post, and have a right to express their personal opinions as long as they are not personally attacking anyone else. Which does NOT include blanket statements regarding groups, unless it is especially extreme. A good example of things needing to change is the hypocritical bullshit that took place after the election when it was arbitrarily decided that those who volunteered to be banned if Hilary won, were not. The fact that we all know that had the result been reversed, every one of those bans would have been enforced is embarrassing. Do your jobs impartially or resign. FEEL FREE TO DEBATE AND DISCUSS THIS POST.

Is this for the mods to debate and discuss or everybody? Because you're absolutely right, we definitely need a safe space for stereotypes about people. Not enough of that to go around on the internet, that's for sure.

My opinion is that it's funny that you're so shook about a black mod existing for two days that you feel a need to reassure racists they're safe here.

The QCS thread about how it should be OK to say "tranny" exploded yesterday with people coming to whine about how mean KM is for giving out sixers.

It's pretty amazing to make a thread railing against a supposed liberal mod hivemind after minority posters have continually expressed the opinion that they are not treated with enough respect or dignity here.

Lmao, I only probated people (4 people, for 6 hours!) who got reported. If I was really banning people who I thought were shitheads or had terrible opinions like 90% of yall would be gone. I'm glad I've got the racists shook though. Seethe.

In my opinion provided you can find leadership to practice relative impartiality you might have more folks post in this subforum. Please keep an eye out here, don't let it fester into the problems this place eventually became.

I love that the debate and discussion forum has a problem with debate and discussion. When the very idea of opposing opinions causes you to project into wild hypothetical that border on conspiracies about harboring racists and whatever the worst possible thing you can dream up is to prevent yourself from being intellectually challenged you probably shouldn't be identifying with "THE DEBATE" forum.

Three examples from recent months shouldn't be hard to find, then. The Hillary-toxx thing is unfortunate and wrongly decided, I'll grant. But that's very different from what the rest of your post is about.

You can get probated or threads locked in other subforums for even mentiong D&D. Is this one of the things that can go away? Because it's completely stupid.

As someone who would have posted this exact thing, say, two years ago, I think D&D is in a pretty good place at the moment, or at least the portions I read are. That doesn't mean there is no one who posts in bad faith or posts personal attacks, but....it's much improved I think, to the point where I don't think this specific announcement was necessary.

Expecting impartiality is stupid. Unless you turn moderators into robots, that's not going to be possible. And tacitly accepting any slurs or evidences of discrimination short of the vilest is a good way to make D&D more unreadable than it is.

Yes, this is totally about making sure D&D continues as a branch of Stormfront and nothing to do with getting rid of the bias that resulted in the Hilary/Trump Toxx disaster.
