[QUOTE=wauterboi;52846516]I remember Garry said that the new forum is WYSIWYG, but is there manual options available, i.e. BBCode or Markdown? I'm crossing my fingers for the latter, but no biggy in general.[/QUOTE]
Its markdown, but you won't ever actually see its makeup as the editor doesn't allow it.
Closest you'll get is a toolbar that displays when you highlight text that gives you the options that you can work with.

the difference is you probably use cunt as an insult rather than a greeting

[QUOTE=Quark:;52846815]consider making good posts from now on[/QUOTE]
i've considered making pseudo-intellectual posts about rick and morty and Xavier Renegade Angel but then i've also considered simply using an ironic sexy anime avatar to augment my posts but i dunno what to choose
maybe you can help me out
[QUOTE=Quark:;52846815]consider making good posts from now on[/QUOTE]
Maybe you should start leading by example then.
on one hand, i already miss flagdog
on the other, at least im not canadian anymore
torres proposed this in Polidicks, and I was wondering if any sort of implementation of it is underway, whatnot with a rules reform of sorts going on with Hezzy. And if not, will it at any point be considered?
[QUOTE=torres;52845865]I'd propose a new rule to Polidicks: When a user enters straight up "I reject objective reality" territory, it calls for a week-long ban. At that point, it's not discussion anymore, but shitposting and derailing for whatever reason. It seriously ruins any meaningful discussion, and it is like pulling teeth.
For a template for what that territory is, I'd point to sgman91 in the last few pages.
Anyway, now we just wait for what Mueller has planned next, and ignore sgman91 and see if he will have to eat his words. Which I think is pretty fucking likely.[/QUOTE]
Sexual flaunting avatar are generally 95% Anime ones, why is Anime so sexualised? I have only ever seen Death Note and there was a girl with huge boobs in that seemed kind of out of place, I get why she was in it but why do they have to make her like that, is all Anime like that?

Don't watch occultic;nine
I don't plan on watching any Anime again.
Anime is objectively inferior to western animation. It's true, look it up.

Am I the only one that needs to prove I'm human everytime I post a new thread
And it fails the first round
And I go back, my thread OP gets wiped out
And now I just copy before posting, do the stupid game, get to a blank page, go back, paste my article, and do it again and it works?

No user should be banned just for holding and defending their opinions, dumb though they may be. If a user's posts bother you so much but don't break the rules, you might be better off just ignoring them.

Either they should be banned for shitposting or others shouldn't be banned for straight up calling them out as fucking idiots
Imo the "all opinions are as valuable as objective facts" line of thinking is dangerous and should not be fostered

Short answer, no. Like with every medium, it depends on what you watch. How much pandering and/or lowest common denominator shit is in it depends on what genre it is, what audience it's intended for, and whether or not somebody who was in charge just liked the idea of having a character with huge tits. I want to know what the fuck happened with Occultic;Nine because the series doesn't even have any fanservice outside of her.
Watch better shows instead of jumping to the conclusion that everything must be terrible. It's like watching a Michael Bay movie and then coming to the conclusion that all movies must suck and there's never any good ones. Just because you get a round of cheers from the anime-is-trash bandwagon every time you parrot it doesn't mean you aren't deliberately cheating yourself out of a potential mountain of shows and movies you might enjoy. Or you might not, but at least you'd be making an informed decision.

The idea is that it's strictly objective, like if somebody got shot in the face and somebody's going "no that didn't happen he's fine i see no bullet wounds". That's completely different from an opinion.
It'd be a rule that you'd have to be careful in enforcing but it would stop people from just straight up denying reality because it doesn't agree with them politically. That's just shitposting and anybody who is doing it is not engaging in any sort of proper argument, they're just going "nuh-uh" at everything.

As dumb as sgman is i don't think he should be banned. The threat of banning will serve to censor him and while I disagree with nearly everything he types he shouldn't be censored. We've lost too many right wing posters already (unban flashmarsh plz) and we should at least try for diversity of ideas and diversity of posters having ideas, even if they're obnoxious posters with bad ideas. When everyone stopped replying to sgman he stopped posting, problem solved; without the need for mods to get invovled.

I don't see why "diversity" is so important that you would be lax towards bad posters. The rules are pretty straightforward, you don't get banned for your opinion, you get banned for shitposting. If you can't express your opinion without getting yourself banned that's your own fault.

You can deal with it with other rules instead of having a test of "denies objective (LMFAO) reality" ban.
and like
[quote]others shouldn't be banned for straight up calling them out as fucking idiots[/quote]
Why? If all the post is is "you're a fucking idiot" it's a waste of a post. And you're free to imply it or even directly state it if your post has content iirc, hasn't gotten me in trouble at least.
I mean FlashMarsh was kinda banned [url=https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1531674&p=50926388&viewfull=1#post50926388]for a reason[/url], not because he was right wing.

yeah that is a terrible post, no denying that. I think had he presented his view differently and not in shitpost form it would have merit, I'm a labour guy (left wing) and he comes from a labour familiy (he's tory ie right wing) and it's no secret that a fair number of people who support labour have issues with anti semitism. He made an ironic shitpost on a pretty legit topic. But yeah ironic shitpost is still a shitpost.
I didn't mean he was banned for being right wing, I mean he was banned. He was good at discussion and had rational moderate conservative views, he convinced me once or twice. Now he's gone and the right seems to be represented entirely by nuts, I can only think of 1 conservative (even then he's only just borderline right imo) poster (zilla) who is in the least bit reasonable, the rest seem to be clowns.

Why are you giving people who don't give a fuck about a propper discussion a platform for discussion?

Maybe I'm naively hoping they'll become moderate useful posters. I'm just afraid of all the right wing peeps getting banned and us ending up as an echo chamber, don't get me wrong I'm liberal left, maybe more so than lotsa people here, but without opposing views things aren't good.

you got me
truth is i have a compulsion to write salty and sarcy comments to foos and people like sgman are the perfect shitpost victims.
I dunno I sorta hope they improve, maybe I'm being too naive about this too much faith in the belief that either he learns something from him (likely) or others learn something from him (unlikely). Maybe you're right and people like him are ultimately bad for discussion, I'd rather he git good than git banned though. But if he can't git good then maybe you're right. He did stop though when people called him out so maybe thats a sign of self awareness? maybe a glimmer of hope for reform?
