i, tbh, dont really feel affected by the rules but i can def see the outcome. yes, threads have been created with a lil more effort than before, but is this the OT we really want? not sure.

This isn't the OT that you want,
For some, this is the OT that they want.

did Ephemeral discuss about his idea with anybody on OT?
I'm just replying to people who are whining about the rule change, B1rd. I like OT more when it has less threads spamming the front page, is that so controversial?
And please, please stop the fucking virtue signalling about capitalism vs socialism. You look ridiculous.
edit: also I just want to ask, has the rule change actually even seriously affected anybody?? I feel like people are complaining more just for the sake of it. One thread per 24 hours isn't even much of a restriction..

And so, you just throw around buzzwords without actually responding to anything I've said. No doubt, the rules affect everyone else a lot more than they benefit you through not having to go through the inconvenience of seeing threads you don't like. So, like I said, if you hate spam so much, why don't you just go to GD instead of coming here where there is intentionally less rules and complaining that things aren't to your liking?
You didn't even respond to B1rd's point of GD. By your criteria, that place is the place to go. It is dead, everything there is serious, and quality, anything that's not quiality disappears. There are no spams, no trash, what better of a place for you? The only reason why you would stay in OT is to have a chat with OT peeps, but you hardly speak to anyone but B1rd and others in ITT. You can, with the quality that you post, do the exact same thing in GD and not having to deal with the trash that you hate, what is the problem?DaddyCoolVipper wrote:

Surely, 1 thread per day is way more inconvenient than scrolling through a bunch of trash threads.
The only argument you can have about not having trash thread is, "I don't like it, therefore I don't want to see it". Everything else you have put forward doesn't even make logical sense. Plus, there are more people who enjoy trash threads than people who hate them, give it a count yourself. So this makes that first statement not have even the slightest impact.
As to your question, how about I ask, has scrolling through a bunch of trash seriously affected anybody? I feel like people are complaining about trash threads just for the sake of it. Scrolling through those trash isn't even that much work. Heck, you only ever post in ITT, Ctrl+F is a thing you know?
Finally, his point about capitalism v.s. socialism isn't that hard to understand, the example is fitting. If you would let go of your emotions for the time being and just properly understand it, you would see that it illustrates the point he was trying to make

I honestly think that people aren't nearly as affected by the rules as the drama suggests. I don't expect them to be enforced very much, and the only one I think actually matters is the 1 thread/day rule. I don't mind the "no politics" rule simply because with that comes the 1 thread/day one.B1rd wrote:

Talking in the OT!News discord now so you won't see a big response here.
Are we on the same page here? I know what virtue signalling is, however in what way was I "virtue signalling"? I wasn't, you're just throwing around buzzwords and you continue to fail to respond to my arguments, as Blitzfrog has also mentioned. Because really, you have no good reasons to support these rules you love so much, you just throw around vague assertions, and you ignore the fact that these rules do in fact have very large effects on the subforum. But that's okay for you, I doubt you even really care much whether there are spam threads or not, doubtlessly you just enjoy inflicting rules and restrictions on other people for the sake of it, because that's just your character.DaddyCoolVipper wrote:

Because half your posts involve some moral high ground comparison about how capitalism/the free market is amazing and how socialism/restrictions are awful.
You even do it in this post. "doubtlessly you just enjoy inflicting rules and restrictions on other people for the sake of it, because that's just your character."
I feel like you've been pretty unhinged lately. It's hurting our discussions when you don't even notice how much you're making these comparisons in order to "signal" just how great your particular economic or political stance is.

Even when blitzfrog is trying to be serious I still cba to read the nonsense he posts
Well this is his area of expertise, something he is very passionate about. You would generally base you examples on things you enjoy/care or have a ton of experience in (basic things). He just likes these stuff dude, leave him be lolDaddyCoolVipper wrote:

Plus, ignoring his political stance, you already stated you understand what he means anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Me too. I've spent way too long today trying to get him to understand the most basic stuff, and even that took multiple repeats and repeated highlighting, just to even get his attention.Kisses wrote:

As long as I can shitpost in any thread, I'm fine.
i don't like rules because it means there are people stupid enough to not live in a community without making other people in it uncomfortable
i mean you can talk about serious shit if you want, i don't check every thread (and i'm not going to) so if you naturally branch into it like this, i don't really care that much

I just want to see people suffer, I used to not lurk here regularly but it changed thanks to the new rule.
People justifying themselves, gets countered by others looks entertaining.
