Apathy is a symptom.

Mildly critical discourse is removed promptly. But truely vile trans hate speech/harassment isn't taken seriously.

Sickening really. We should all be held to the same standard.

[Cecily]

You really think it's hate speech/harassment? It's people being mean on the internet. Just own it and they can't hurt you with it, not online. When you speak on a forum, you're not only speaking to the person you're speaking to. You speak to the forums and you will be judged by what you say. Let people show their character and be treated accordingly.

Snappers was an insufferable, negative asshole and he got himself shunned from the gains thread the day after he began participating in it. This is largely due to his nasty, constant anti-trans comments. He got called out and was not allowed to participate in a thread about a subject matter that was important to him. Patriam and Mead, thank you for not letting that type of behavior go unchecked. It's very much appreciated.

If you ask for censorship / political correctness and get it, you will never know where you stand with someone. I'd rather know who the assholes are.

[Nexii]

Yes, I really do think Cecily. I'm not trolling when I say this. There's a line that shouldn't be crossed. And they did - encouraging suicide would be borderline illegal here in Canada. You can be politically non-correct without being hateful/harassing. Free speech isn't more important than freedom from harm. The law in Canada agrees with this. Sorry it's not quite there yet in the USA - both in law and how this is viewed.

[Cecily]

Who did, where did it

Free speech is the only thing good about my cesspool of a country and I'm sorry you commies don't agree. Do not - take an anti-free speech stance with an American.

[arsenalpow]

Looks like a grudge

[Nexii]

Not all forms of speech are free. You can't threaten someone's life for example - this form of speech is a crime. And similarly advocating genocide is. "Freedom of speech" refers more to the citizenry being able to openly criticise the government's actions without reprisal. It's not a licence to be an asshole to whoever you like.

[Cecily]

No that's highly relevant to this subject. It's too bad a lot trans people are too busy being offended to see the benefits of letting people make asses of themselves. It comes back to bite them in the ass and the watching the karma is very, very satisfying.

ON THAT SUBJECT MATTER

Alex Jones, publicly anti-trans, caught with trans porn. (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/alex-jones-trans-porn-phone-infowars-marissa-minx-a8510801.html)

Look I do agree most of the time. 99% of the stuff you gotta just let slide. The undirected stupid stuff said doesn't deserve a crusade. But don't tolerate directed harassment more than any other person would just because you're trans. That's what I'm trying to get at. I feel like a lot of us do because...well...it's harder to be assertive. I'm not even saying this so much for myself. I've never seriously contemplated suicide. It's for the trans who have.

Elaborate on how something that my country actually has works please. The point is, it's very hard to go to jail for saying something in America and we like that very much. Hope you never break the law voicing your crimethink. Fucking gross.

Ok and that's... an outcome I'd imagine you're ok with and probably exactly what you wanted. So transphobic posted getting banned and the board does nothing to stop transphobia. Got it.

[Nexii]

It's about stopping harassment. I'm 100% fine with bans for it. Maybe you didn't consider some of the stuff said as harassment but I did. Yea, the motivating factor might have been transphobia. Maybe it was just being sadistic. Doesn't really matter though.

I mean I get it. The GMs don't want to be harassed either. I didn't write my story with that purpose. It was more intended as just erotica / comedy. Anyways I digress...future ones can have other characters. Assuming it wasn't removed for other reasons as I wasn't given feedback.

There's no patriotism, that's what it is. And no matriotism, either.

Well, you already said you're on board with defacto censorship. I think you just take issue with authority figures because you secretly want to be a dom. Ask Zeitgeist-sama to train you.

Do you think? When my BF wanted me to whip him it made me mentally recoil to which I replied, "Ok." Not ok. I don't like hurting people... or do I? I do enjoy fucking with people's heads, but that's not nice and I want to be nice god dammit but there's too many fucking stupid opinions out there for me to be agreeable.

[Wonkie]

its not about hurting people silly

[Cecily]

As far as defacto censorship... It's voluntary and I have a vested interest in people agreeing with that censorship. If public opinion is against my interest, I need to fight to change public opinion. I am not ok with forcing anyone to agree with me and free speech a core value of mine. I welcome dissent, but I'm going for the throat with my arguments.

I’ll say this before my plane takes off. They don’t ducking care. There is no standard. It’s when they get to t and how they feel. You know it I know it and core really knows it. If there was some semblance of consistency then that would be awesome but there isn’t.

I'm trying to understand the fundamentals.

Is it an RnF ban from the superior alpha guilds?

Is it a result of a rapidly diminishing player base?

High turnover of quality forum trolls?

When did GMs become so emotionally fragile that they nuking threads and forum banning?

Does staff need to be protected from realities of how poor decision making is perceived?

Are Sirken's testosterone levels dropping? Is he balding and taking it out on RnF?

When did this drastic new tone/fear wash over RnF?

[Cecily]

Because minor dissent is getting people permaed. Jeremy + Beavischrist accounts got 1-2 KOed in like 10 mins a few weeks ago over nothing in what I think was a.. Core thread. So fuck you, Core. Jeremy was a saint. Plus plenty of other people. I think discussing this is asking for it honestly and it really sucks the forums are like this now.

I think only Tempest kicks their members out for RNF. But it's kind of a thing where all guilds discourage it.

The better question is how to mend the rift. I was trying to hint at that theme with the Jaded story. In hindsight I would have continued in that direction with my last one had I known

makes you wonder if Rogean and Nilbog know what is truly going on in the raid scene. GL HF

[Ella`Ella]

Are <Core> server scum bags? Judging by the Raid Discussion forum, I would think so, but there's nothing on RnF to confirm or deny...

Who are the real scum bags these days? Tempest? Paradigm Shift? Kittens?

[Nexii]

There are no scum bags this far into Velious. Everyone is nice. The raid scene is healthy and perfectly balanced.

[Ella`Ella]

There are no scum bags this far into Velious. Everyone is nice. The raid scene is healthy and perfectly balanced.

Cannot be - a perfect raid scene is a single guild dominating every single mob. And, by looking at the <Aftermath> Guild Discussion thread, it appears they lost 2 mobs during a repop. Thus, imperfect and unbalanced raid scene. THUS, scum bags must be afoot.

We need to find a young lawyer to petition Chief Justice Rogean to issue a writ of habeas corpus on behalf of Core and see if we can get them a fair trial in open court. I suggest RnF as the venue.

I mean these folks have got to be at least in their age 30s-40s by now still doing the same shit
and then I see people complaining that there are too many rules and next thread I see people doing shit in VP where there are not that many rules.

Maybe after 9 years p99 was not meant to give us the classic experience but to let us know that time must go on and that instances are the past present and future. people are cunts and will always be cunts and no matter how many rules people erect there will always be cunts and if you are a cunt in an instance they will just uncunt you and move on with their lives without missing a beat while you are stuck with a 30 min no dungeon debuff as you wallow in your cuntjuice.

p99 is not a museum. p99 is a warning to future devs
