I think what's been lost is a fuckton of smart left leaning posters who got sick of being punished constantly. It's happened over years and not necessarily the fault of Koos and his team.

Pay attention too much you're a weirdo and pay attention not enough and then you don't have any good examples for the every 3 month feedback thread. It's like how reporting is castigated in some circles but also leads to random delayed punishments and so biggest assholes abuse the system to apparently win. The flip side of course is that certain posters think they are going to win if it weren't for those dastardly mods silencing them out of the thread but all they do is repeatedly make the same point over and over.

cinci zoo sniper posted:Post on your main, LALD. Empty quoted. I think things are potentially better under koos but the only way to be sure is to get more people participating again and this well maybe too poisoned. The most basic issue is that it's still light discussion threads but the rules randomly slam flipped to debate rules whenever convenient for certain people who don't like hearing contrary arguments Harold Fjord fucked around with this message at 15:08 on Mar 26, 2023 |

fez_machine posted:There are many places that do have more casual discourse in D&D like the country threads, the chat thread (and maybe USCE? I don't know I don't read it). It's not actually unlike them though. It just narrows the allowed shitposting to a specific ideological range.

I think there are different expectations in other forums that don't work as well here. It's a bad look for a D&D mod to give someone a week off for continuing to disagree with them even if the mod thinks the disagreement is in bad faith.

You were the only person that even bring up the holpdomor so getting mad that people in this thread aren't experts seems incredibly counterproductive

fez_machine posted:why not just post in CSPAM about this stuff? Because they already know it and because it's a serious, well written argument that has no place there.

socialsecurity posted:Yeah I don't see how the Ukraine thread would be better by someone reposting Russian Propaganda endlessly about how poor Russia was forced to invade Ukraine and wipe out their culture, the people looking to post it aren't doing so they can debate the merits of said propaganda or post evidence one way or another they want to yell at the libs, be a toxic rear end in a top hat then complain about how their viewpoint is being silenced when they get a 6er after breaking a dozen rules. Man, it's weird how this only affects people on your team and your posts like this have never made any good poster leave. Real weird.

Jarmak posted:This is kind of a good microcosm of the issue. Someone walks in with a hot take from the gut that annoys people, get's asked to provide evidence/support, and instead we get pages of tedious poo poo like this. Tangential at best evidence, along with a hyperbolic misrepresentation of what evidence is actually being asked for/would be required to support the original positions, and a mish-mash of insulting misrepresentations of the counterarguments being made. Demanding obsessive keeping track of posts like this is weird to make a condition of presenting an argument. A lot like the point Turg is making

socialsecurity posted:This is the post that started most of this argument and is a common complaint in these threads, there are many people claiming that having the minority opinion will get you probed. Yet no examples of that have been posted beyond a single post from Rigel that you are mad didn't get probed which doesn't really mean much of anything. It seems like you are getting different parts of arguments mixed up, and this was already pointed out. Evidence of a different thing is being used to argue the different thing.

Solkanar512 posted:I'd love to know what the rest of us have to tolerate anti-social behavior. There is absolutely no reason to ever tolerate people who are assholes to others.  The essential problem is a bunch of posters conflating political opinions with assholery. You think you aren't just as big an rear end in a top hat as anyone else here?
