i glad this not just a opinion or something ^^

If I tell someone I'm going to sacrifice them in the name of Cazic Thule while on my iksar, that's not going to be considered trolling by anyone.

no, but tbh, i not gonna hold it against you neither, because you bound by you disgusting lizard nature which aspire to those sorta foul activities. it not you fault you seek to sate the bloodlust of you primitive god :3

On p99 we've got people who will call each other useless cucks, promote white supremacy in subtle and various forms,

woah there, don't think I've seen any subtle promotions of white supremacy here.

write long misogynist posts,

outside of satire, not sure i seen this neither :c maybe in red subforum?

call each other disabled,

you mean autistic, or retarded or downs? the last one I find a little mean because it demean people with down syndrome and they obviously have problems the rest of us don't, but calling people retarded is fine and autistic is more funny because it speaks to one's nature. personally i would find it mildly offensive if you considered all autistic peoples 'disabled'.

gossip,

pretty misogynistic objection :3

revel in shitposting,

...crude and wanton were they in their ways, finding great delight they own debasement.

and at this point they rate the trolliness of everyone else's posts. It's a game to see how far they can push it before they get banned (temporarily, for some reason). Forumquesters who roleplay on the forum as various awful types of people or trolls, who roll 'alts' and pretend to be other people? That is insanity.

i don't think you understand the number or nature of the players. to be fair though, you probably not want to neither, but that okay too. it you choice ^^

I'm sure someone out there is thinking 'oh, lighten up, Sorn, it's a game we play and it's fun, you just have no sense of humor'. Sure, if I lose my sense of right and wrong, I too can hang out in RnF all day bemoaning the lack of good threads or making shitposts while thinking anyone who hates forumquest is just too sensitive.

nobody say you too sensitive, sorn. it okay to be upset by things. in my opinion it better to be sad than angry though because anger is more destructive. it not worth getting upset or worrying about things you can't change and the more you able to adapt to various situations the less chance you gonna have of being unhappy.

it liek with food, you you can hate vegetables and seafood and ketchup and whatever else you want, but all that do is give you more opportunity to be unhappy :c because of you chose to liek them things instead, you not never gonna hafta be frustrated when someone mess up and you end up with a onion in you sandwich or whatever ^^

As it is, I absolutely do not take any post on here or anything I see in-game personally and I do recognize the in-joke aspect of it, but I still don't think it has a place here.

because you don't like it?

You're saying 'the definition of trolling is subjective as long as no one's using vulgar words or personal attacks'. It's like the one guy at a party telling everyone to lighten up when they don't find the joke about black people funny and no one gets his sense of humor and what's the problem since he didn't use the 'n' word, except 30% of the party is comprised of people just like that one guy and the host is ignoring what's going on. They might be great guys elsewhere, but left unchecked they consider it acceptable to ruin a party by being unpleasant and telling shitty jokes.

90% of p99 players do not come to the forums because these people turn it into a toxic cesspool for their own pleasure. If you can't see it, then you're in too deep. Moderation on these forums is negligible if all they look out for is technicalities like bad words. Should the bare minimum for enforcement of common decency be to make sure no one makes public death threats or uses bad words?

lotta statistics in there, but to the point you trying to demonstrate, you are perfectly normal, you not a odd duck, you needn't feel threatened by a obvious minority. personally I think it a beautiful part of the Internet! it allow the weirdos to find others liek them and reception for they creative expression. it give everyone a opportunity to learn :3

I think it's bullshit that you're arguing that it's subjective.

that a retarded thought ^^

It's only subjective because the trolls have chased off most of the sane people who don't find forumquesting amusing, leaving only themselves in a little echo chamber so they can pretend they're the majority and can define sanity.

you not a minority, you are sane and normal. you don't need to worry about that. don't think any of the deviant personalities here consider theyselfs or at least what they doing, normal. don't think there are many genuinely insidious personalities either ^^

This is the culture that helped enable GG to cause all the chaos he did in the beginning when he should have been seeking help or finding better things to do with his life. This is the culture that promotes casual sociopathy and tries to excuse it by telling the rest to lighten up. Five minutes browsing RnF or Off Topic is all a regular player would need to understand this.

actually GG was wildly popular with the community at large because his work was normal, it undoubtedly the reason why you joined his DoF: because you understood it and wanted to entertain people too.

The troll subculture is endemic to gaming and the internet, but it needn't be so prominent in p99. Our shit standards for moderating the forums, the obsessive persistence of our trolls, and the management of the CSR side enabling this sort of nonsense leads to this forum being a haven for such things. We represent the p99 community as a forum. Sadly, as a whole we do a truly awful job. If you are so bored that you don't play anymore and just shitpost on the forums, consider leaving. Annoyed that random people reading the shitposts don't get your humor or take offense to your bullshit? Keep it to elfpals where they truly understand you.

i didn't understand a lotta things at first, but I liek to learn and am more pliable than most people, so I engaged. I've learned lots. you only not gonna learn if you choose not to ^^

That's all I've got to say on the topic. Thanks for reading.

^^

I feel like Sorn might have just dropped a text-wall and now is refusing to discuss it. That's like walking in to a room of people, telling them that three quarters of them deserve to be put in prison for life, shitting in the middle of the room, and then walking out.

Kind of cool, I guess. But also very rude!

Hopefully he is just busy in RL and will get back to us soon [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
