No, I'm saying that 4chan allows that sort of derogatory terminology. However, even 4chan users (and yes, we do have a large number of them here) can stop insulting every minority group around them when they want to. Basic self-restraint isn't too much to ask for. An insult being 'deserved' does not change the fact that it is an insult.

i dont know negateck i think he's asexual
seriously though, over 90% of our members (the ten percent being people like artifact, spark, qwerty) are completely fine with being called a gay faggot, that rule is really damn dumb and needs change. we are not a pg-13 forum anymore, get out of that mentality, qwerty.

That'll be a bit hard considering he's had the same mentality since 2008.

Look, if you want to talk about removing that rule, you'll just have to do it on the correct thread. If you want to insult me, however, I suggest you do it on the spam board.

That's be good, considering many people don't. Ultimately it's pretty easy to follow them; mods warn you if you do something against the rules unless it is obvious that it is so.

Can I make a point which is, if my spelling is bad, it is my autocorrect so don't give me that 15% warning again. Just a heads up, that if I break that rule. Sorry.

Perchance could you disable the autocorrect feature, or perhaps use the backspace and delete keys as necessary before posting? Neither of those should be that difficult, unless whatever device you're using stupidly excluded those keys and setting, and the time it takes to do either of those should not be that terribly long. I believe that it's more important to be understood than it is to be quick, especially when there is no rush to post.
As a matter of fact, depending on whether your autocorrect feature merely displays suggestions that you can override as you type the word, can't you just continue to type the intended word than blindly accept incorrect suggestions?

I don't take issue, and nor (I believe) does Veers. Fox is a maybe. You may not be offended by it, but there ARE people that are highly offended by such language. You have no idea of knowing just how offended they can be. The forum is for everyone, not just a majority of, frankly, straight WASPs. >on the internet >getting offended grow up, please. This is the biggest problem we have now. I'd advise either one of the sides to grow up, with either A): Temporarily9 and everyone else who cries gets angry over the internet because of what somebody says learn that everything here is just a game and deal with it, or B): Nmagane and the other half choose to be the better men and realize that other people have feelings even if it's funny to make them angry. If it's bad enough for a growing forum (QCF) to continue to rise that has chosen to split from DBF, then obviously this needs to be settled here and now.

I know perfectly well that it's just a forum and nothing to get angry over, but Nmagane and his ilk have no right to go insulting and ridiculing people whenever they want. People DO get offended by their actions, and it's time they learn to respect that. If they want to talk they way they do there are other forums that are more than willing to allow them to do so.

You say that about other forums, yet you yourself ridicule the QCF AND Nmagane for posting on it. You even flamed him on chat because of the post he made on that forum. Perhaps you are right when it comes to your view on the matter, but what you say and what you enforce are almost completely different.

Don't drag my forum into this, DM I'll drag whatever the fuck I want into this matter, and I already dragged your forum into it because it is the result of this growing clusterfuck. Clearly it was made because you and a side of the DBF community felt that things going on here aren't suitable to your liking. This is something I'm bringing up because it's not going to get any better unless you and the rest decide to grow a pair and settle it.

You know, this discussion doesn't need to happen, if anyone comes here with the sole purpose to bitch and moan, we're better off without you. While we'd love to have a steady stream of members but keep the old ones, frankly, if you don't like it, get out.

There's been like, 2 new active members in the past 6 months.

This isn't an activity thread. This is a forum rules thread. As such discussion that isn't related to the forum rules should be kept out of it. Any further will be deleted, regardless of side.

There's been like, 2 new active members in the past 6 months. I'm one of them!!!! I have a question about the rules: with smite and exalt, what happens if you smite someone like 20 times because you were angry? maybe I just didn't read the rules carefully but I didn't see anything about karma

Post by QwertyuiopThePie on Jun 26, 2012 8:33:46 GMT
You wouldn't be able to smite someone 20 times as a spur-of-the-moment thing as you only get one smite/exalt per hour. However, should that happen, the person could complain to us, we could check the logs, and we would restore that person's karma and place the amount smited/exalted as a smite on the person that did the smiting... so to speak.

I apologise but i accedentely missplaced my thread. Is there any way you could move it please? It is located in stick ranger. I dont rememeber where though. Its called "3 new suggestions". I also realise that this may give me a warning, and i will try to be more careful when creating threads. Sorry.

I moved it, but it's really not a problem. Thread organization might have been an issue back when people were still making new threads, but nowadays, it's pretty pointless. We mostly keep the boards around for archival reasons.

Oh. Ok good to know. Do you still reply and look at new threads for interesting ideas or concepts? Cause if not that whole thread was pointless... Mine, not this one, took me really long too. Thanks for moving the thread.

There's a few people who still discuss those, yes. I personally just come here every few days to check new user registration.
