Shouldn't I be on your ignore list?

Just do everyone a favour and stop posting.
We went over this the last time you tried; you come off as creepy and unfunny when you try to pull shit like that. Just go away, Being.
If people would quit validating him by responding to him he'd go away, Nessie.
You can do it!
does it MATTER?? like, relax dude
Really!? Then why is this in Debate and Discussion?
Do we honestly need to vet people before they're allowed to start threads in that forum?
It's there because there's no reason for it to not be there, and I prefer having a relaxed atmosphere that doesn't stifle discussion. one or two such threads in d&d is an insignificant price to pay, imo.
You know what, the standard is as simple as: Would the thread topic/OP be found or discussed on/in a professional news or media oriented website/journal/newspaper/magazine/etc.
Your thread would not be. Hell it doesn't even have content aside from a poll. It goes in General Chat.
Uhmm...there is, I guess see above since it isn't clear to you.
1) You're one person. So far the majority opinion has been that threads like that don't belong in D&D and besides that...I guess ask Loki, since that part of the forum contributes to his idea for a professional blog.Quote:

2) Thats what we have General Chat for. If you just want to bullshit or random stuff...put it there.
there's nothing stopping anyone from moving it to a more appropriate forum, i am objecting mostly to the assholishness.
Do you? You argue like someone who does.
I refer you to Dread's diplomatic and tactful approach to the matter :up:
For future reference, I prefer the men's room. Easier access, shorter lines, much more relaxed :up:
Why don't you use the Women's restroom? Next time you're in need of a bathroom, go ahead.
I'm not trying to insult you, or call you a woman (I'm not sure how that could be an insult, but w/e)...so perhaps you should start thinking about why you don't use the Women's restroom, and why Being shouldn't post certain threads in Debate and Discussion... :bored:
Yeah instead of letting us get trapped by an inappropriate and ultimately useless analogy, I'll say outright that while I don't use the women's restroom I try make sure that any group I am in has a fairly relaxed attitude wrt what discussions are okay.
Perhaps we should refrain from thinking of d&d as the women's restroom. Have you HEARD the conversations in those?? brrr
You think its inappropriate and useless because you seem to still fail to understand why the type of thread Being posted shouldn't be in D&D... :bored:
And, again...we're not stopping you from having those discussions, just telling you that there's a certain place for them, and you're putting them in the wrong one.
No, I think it's inappropriate and useless because it's inappropriate and useless. You insist on arguing through analogy because you're one of those broken creatures the world knows as an artist, but were I to accept your analogy as legitimate it would simply serve to muddle things up. If you must use your toilet analogy, then let me put it this way: were Being to go into the women's restroom to pee, then, if he were caught, I would prefer him to be escorted out gently and with tact. I wouldn't like some idiot lady to knee him in the crotch, throw him out, and then go on a rant about how she and all her sisters had been violated by his intrusion and can we please, as a nation, train men to steer clear of women's restrooms using ECT???
Dread showed excellent leadership in this matter. He doesn't have to let it stay even if Being says so, but he's allowing for a friendly dialogue, which is commendable :up: you guys would do well to learn from the man. Since this is the sub-forum for site-discussion, I'd like to add that that's how I'd like to see tWF be moderated in the future.
We're getting tired of reminding Being.
We've obviously silently informed the moderators about our issue...I'm not sure how this is kicking him out, or anything you mentioned above, or awful behavior.
Edit: I forgot to commend you on your circular reasoning. :up:
You're arguing for a false dichotomy, Minx.
We can have a fun and relaxed atmosphere (which we've been having for a large part lately!) among peers, while recognizing that some elements are incapable of worthwhile contributions. You're a scientist, you know about signal to noise ratios. Being posts incoherent nonsense most of the time, with a smug attitude which I suppose means he thinks he's bright, and Alpha Romeo uses any thread, any thread at all, as a platform for his insane ramblings on money, banks, China, and precious bodily fluids. A large segment of the forum, and I would suggest most of the luminaries inasmuch as we have some, simply do not want to see that. It is a negative contribution to the quality of discussion and exchange of ideas.
It's too bad that this, to you, somehow suggests we are not relaxed and not having fun.
