I'm just not sure why a person's age or gender would have any bearing on why they would be a social justice warrior. could someone explain this to me?

thank you bwatts for all your hard work and attentiveness throughout april so far, and your months of pouring your heart and soul into this forum before this.

Bwee mentioned looking for rules to keep people from having to feign racism or sexism or whatever, so: rule suggestion: no referencing the past before your post. AT ALL. No post can reference text from the past, and any post pointed out as referencing past knowledge is a probation. It's like BYOB thought police day. might be too much work.

What about... no disrespecting each other? That would catch a few people in a day certainly.

No references to red, purple, or orange objects

No literary cliches

No references to the Marvel Cinematic Universe

Any other ideas BYOB?

new rule: you have to keep it real

alnilam

no personal pronouns :twisted:

Just Burgs

If you quote someone, be sure to either thank the quoted user for their quote, or properly cite the post quoted in MLA and include a reference page for each quote referenced.

I think it will help prevent plagiarism in BYOB.

alnilam

ideally a rule will allow people to break it in a really funny way

what about like, reviewing a book is probatable? someone could write a funny book review post, or peple with less effort in mind could just say "the very hungry catepillar was a good book" before going to bed



ty manifisto

alnilam

no appropriating children's culture (hello subjectivity)

maybe try a more direct approach. "posts that doesn't include a story/video/photoshops of jesus coming back to life will get probated", for instance (or any other funny topic you can think of).

Bwee
Yeah but that would mean wayyy more people would be probated :-/ I want it to sort of be a "funny probation for charity" thing so they can be linked in Orange's thread

Bwee

Done. Does LW deserve a probation for that?

landy.
