Shouldn't I be on your ignore list?

If hindsight is 20-20, why is it so often ignored?
Just do everyone a favour and stop posting.
In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
You have a crush on me, don't you?

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!
We're stuck in a bloody snowglobe.
Your public display of affection is titillating

Ugh, I'll try.
But for the record, he did seem to shut up for a bit when he was called out the last time! I don't know why it thought it was more welcome now. Do we need some moderator action?

Hey, if you don't want me around why don't you just say so?

does it MATTER?? like, relax dude
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
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?
. . .
You should point out why a discussion of what is real does not belong there. Your comments can be the start of our Guide to Positng.

Everyone else seems to get it...perhaps you should try harder...
. . .
Perhaps not everyone.

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.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
You don't get it. If you did you would have answered the question. It really is not trivial at all.

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.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.
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.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Do you use the Women's restroom?
. . .
Do you? You argue like someone who does.
I refer you to Dread's diplomatic and tactful approach to the matter
For future reference, I prefer the men's room. Easier access, shorter lines, much more relaxed
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Why don't you use the Women's restroom? Next time you're in need of a bathroom, go ahead.For future reference, I prefer the men's room. Easier access, shorter lines, much more relaxed
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...
. . .
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
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Dread shouldn't have been asking permission to move it, it should have just been done.Do you? You argue like someone who does.

I also prefer the men's room - but the filth and stench sometimes make it worthwhile to wait in line for the women's facilities instead.
We're stuck in a bloody snowglobe.
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...
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
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
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.
. . .
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.

I dunno, the first part of that sounds hilarious.
Last night as I lay in bed, looking up at the stars, I thought, “Where the hell is my ceiling?"
Have you read your own posts?
No really, please do that and then compare them to my posts.

Stop posting, Being
