if you need a guide to not be exiled you deserve being exiled and should, in fact, be exiled right away.
Yeah... I said in Discord last night that you get two warnings before you're exiled as it is, and that each of these warnings essentially means "you're doing something bad, don't do this again"... but apparently that's not clear enough for people as they try to justify a thread which was just three songs.

---

"People shouldn't be exiled on someone's personal opinion"

Right, so... isn't you saying that also subjective?
Also the fact that the thread in question was utter shit
There's also the fact that someone has to draw the line on what is and isn't okay, though, because otherwise nothing would ever happen :unamused:

Lets be real here, we made an exile system for a very useless forum that has no meaning excect starting conversations. Usually very meaningless conversations. Yet we have to literally strict users privligages to post? At least put the people who were spamming the threads on "in danger of being exiled" so they can follow rules. Why completely strict their privileges with no warning?? If a threads stupid it'll die on it's own, no need to exile them for just being stupid. If they were stupid and spammed the fucking forum then give them an exile smh. How much more fucked can OT be?

so start good conversations and there's no problem

in your case however it's more like "participate in conversations until you can be trusted to start your own"

*assuming the kys is in the yOOT form*
Maybe just give how to improve next created thread?

True


How do you don't do the obvious and be creative at the same time

Disagree. All that has happened is spam stopped. This is a good thing imo, but it comes with the price of OT slowly getting more and more inactive. I give these rules 1 month.

It is actually up to you guys, if you stop complaining you can make this forum alive.
Or you can continue being salty with the new strict rules making you post less and make this forum dead.

Well I stopped those Satires after deducing that:

1. Satires can just be posted as comments on threads
2. I need to read each and every post leading up to mods' locks before even deciding to criticize
3. Stand-alone insults (which can be hard to deduce from constructive criticism given the thread names) are best unsaid, and killed in the poster's mind

How should I go from there

is 24 hours really that long of a time? It's not like this forum needs to be lit all the time. Honestly, threads that guarantee a lot of pages are probably the best solution to this

So what he is saying is that if you don't want your threads locked, recognize what is trash and let it sink.
To be honest, the presence of the shitposting group was ruining this. None of their threads were worth posting in, but they kept bumping it on the frontpage a bunch of times, just typing whatever the first thing came into their head.

I'm really glad they've stopped that, probably thanks to the rule change.

What the hell are you babbling about? Why are you mentioning hardcore games? And Railey said a completely different thing from what I posted. I asked about the 24 hours because of the amounts of complaints other users had about that thread rule. Please read before you post.

no shit 24 hours is too long for you. Also, DaddyCoolVipper never even suggested to get off your computer. Please read before you post.

Yeah, I agree. The issue is that the main people who were posting here before the rules started up threads that called for little to no discussion, with most of them dying out before the first page, hence why it looks so quiet now.

But some people were only exiled because they make "bad threads" even if they follow the rules. How is that being overly stupid again?

So if a thread does not begin a good conversation the OP should be exiled? In that case, you can't tell me this thread has a good conversation in it, so using your logic kai should get an exilement strike? No?

I am not the one who exiled you, ask Ephemeral why you are exiled and why kai didn't get striked. That way you'll get a fair answer.

Teach your children from the very beginning to practice self-denial and self-control. Teach them to enjoy the beauties of nature and to exercise systematically in useful occupations all their corporal and intellectual faculties. Teach them so that they come to have a healthy constitution and good moral principles, a cheerful disposition and a gentle temper. Instill in their tender brain the truth that God has not created us to live merely for the present pleasures, but for our final good. Teach them that giving in to temptation is proof of weakness and wickedness, while resisting it denotes nobility and virility. These lessons will be like seed sown on fertile soil, and they will bear fruit that shall fill their heart with joy.

Above all, surround the parents to their children in an atmosphere of joy, courtesy and love. In a home where love inhabits and expresses itself in glances, words and acts, the Angels are pleased to manifest their presence.

Fathers, let your hearts enter the sunshine of Love, joviality and happy contentment, and allow your sweet and precious influence to penetrate your home. Manifest a kind and tolerant spirit; spread it also in your children, to cultivate all the graces that will enlighten your family life. The atmosphere thus created will be for the children the same way the air and the sun are for the vegetation and promote the health and vigor of the mind and body.

If we do all that, we will successfully prevent locks and exiles.
