Okay, wait wait wait.

Many of the “oldies” here are saying that “mindless shitposting” = “absolute nonsense”, am I right?
(For clarity’s sake, let’s define an “oldie” as a person that has been on the forums for 3+ years.)
Aurani
The very fact that you'd try to defend genuinely and absolutely asocial and autistic behaviour (also known as shitposting) makes that post nonsensical.
E m i
he might be defending but definitely not yet as it's just a question... but not that i understand the question either

and i don't really care if it's absolute 100% nonsense or only 80% nonsense or whatever other possible consideration i can have for it, all i can say is that it's preferable if people make posts with actual substance... i should be doing that too :(

For the record, you shouldn't reference Urban Dictionary entries by number, because that can easily change in the future if the ratings shift. It's better to just take a screenshot of the entry you are referencing. Just sayin'.

I’m still confused.
I’ve asked Hwa about how would you know if your behavior is autistic or not, and she said: (hope you don’t mind)
From other people's viewpoint of you? If multiple people share the same opinion, surely they can't be wrong?
But just because multiple people are saying that something is right, that alone does not make it correct, does it?

posting the definition of autism here from urban dictionary was the most autistic thing you could have done

Well it’s sure better to force this into ITT than making a new thread, no?
I think these discussions are important because they might help prevent future shitty behavior from happening on the forums. My goal is to... accept the bare reasoning behind common forum etiquette by comparing the mindsets of an arrogant and a smart person.

“accept forum etiquette by comparing a smart and a stupid person”. Does that make more sense?

A bunch of randoms on the internet are the perfect authority to determine you are autistic, didn't you know that?

I mean, if the "multiple people on the internet say it's so so it must be so" thing actually worked we'd be living on a flat earth right now.

A large group's aggregated answers to questions involving quantity estimation, general world knowledge, and spatial reasoning has generally been found to be as good as, and often better than, the answer given by any of the individuals within the group.
Diagnosing someone with autism does not fall under those things afaik.

Also that system is pretty bad if all the people in the crowd believe in something that is proven to be not true.

General world knowledge is so vague it honestly could be.

No, I meant the genuine definition of autism. You have to be either incredibly socially inept or be to some degree on the spectrum if "shitposting" is something seriously addictive and nice to do. It genuinely baffles me.

I guess I could've not been so outright hostile considering I didn't think about the possibility of you having talked to another person and not just in general.
That's just my personal opinion on the matter, as I cannot comprehend what compels others to "shitpost" (or in other words post incredibly meaningless things devoid of any reason or wit) other than either some form of mental illness, or just social ineptness.
Vuelo Eluko
aurani is pretty much the authority on social ineptitude so i think he's got a good perspective on this

You’d think that I have enough knowledge to tell that that person was being sarcastic. Clearly, if you haven’t seen how I behaved in OT over the past - almost a year - then... yeah.
first, if you somehow really haven't noticed, I implore you to look at this: search.php?&&author_id=1890385&start=30 and then tell me how exactly I would know your behaviour across the span of a year, nevermind the fact that I really don't care about people here bar a select few (and I assure you, you would know if you were one of those people)
second, this just sounds like a cheap attempt at this:
third, I didn't actually realise you're literally a child, and I heavily recommend that you step away from the internet and your anonymous facade and instead learn how to be a functioning, social person in real life. if I'd done it myself I'd probably be much happier and better off in life at the moment

A good thing about the new forum design is that it's actually more space-efficient than the old design when you're viewing a thread. Then they instantly ruin that again by making the design much less space-efficient when you view a subforum. And the absolute kicker? They are getting rid of thread pages. Hands down the single most retarded design choice ever made, instant dealbreaker. Do you guys know one freakin forum that doesn't use thread pages? I surely don't.

That's it for me. Time to retire and go back to the MAL forums. Fucking stupid. I really had faith in the development team to make this good, but apparently it's design > functionality to them. Too bad.

Railey2
It just fucks the sites functionality, makes it infinitely harder to browse through long threads. It also takes longer to load and you can accidentally trigger it by scrolling up too high, which is super dumb.

If you load too much shit, it becomes disorienting you lose your sense of where you are exactly in the thread pretty quickly, because the site you're on changes its length all the time. Try loading a bigger chunk of a thread and go back and forth a bit, it's not fun at all. You know why that never happens with thread pages? Because they're all the same length, and it's a length that you can take in without any trouble. 15 posts per page. Always. You can also easily tell how far back you went just by looking at the pagenumber.

With the new design though? Who the fuck knows. It's a mess. The best you can do is using the postnumber to navigate, but that's just super awkward in longer threads.


The only upside I can see is that you can load longer parts of conversations all at once, but that's not enough of an advantage to make up for all the shit we'd have to deal with if this garbage design gets forced on us.

I pretty much agree with Railey overall. The dev team do care more about the design than the functionality of the users, especially as it doesn't affect them. The same happened with the new modding process with beatmaps where are lot of feedback/opinions (that aren't good ones) fall on deaf ears

Infinite scrolling did get a bit better, but still not like pages. Going by post enumeration instead of sets of 15 is weird.

t/376031/start=30

no thanks. Peppy is a manchild. Let him have his shitty design. Time to move on.

SPOILER
Also, peppy openly admitted to taking bribes to "look into peoples appeals". £60 for unban anyone? The staff has zero integrity. I expect nothing from them.


And besides, it's only gonna be the heavy users that are really unhappy with the new designs. They care most about functionality, after all. Everyone else? They'll love looking at something shiny and neat, probably won't even mind the infinite scrolling cancer, because they're not spending that much time on here either way.
So peppy will keep hearing from that group that the design is good, and guess who he's gonna listen to.

The design will work for the majority, so in that sense it is not a bad design. It's just really bad for us, sadly.

I've tried giving peppy feedback... his responses usually amount to something along the lines of "fuck you, I do what I like". Last time I wrote up an in-depth critique of score-v2, but the thread was deleted quite quickly.

lo and behold, the archetypal forum moderator, these type of people are everywhere. It's stupid really, a lot of people have no discipline or self-respect and jump at the opportunity to engage in a sort of hierarchical power play even if it's something as inconsequential as a forum.

OT is good for the most part, with it being left to its own devices most of the time. Though it seems that's set to change with the new forum design. I wouldn't recommend going to Tuuba though, it's the same deal of intolerable personalities wielding moderator power.

people like being edgy and push boundaries then cry about it. It becomes a joke when people complain no action is being taken "where are mods? what they are doing?", while it is a hellscape of decision making for the mods themselves. People just have different standards and thresholds. Can't satisfy all of them. This is coming from my experience being the ot!neus discord admin, not really has anything to do with tuuba, but may be applicable.

I mean of course you'd support anarchy (despite clear evidence of it being complete shit here) than some form of authority and order.
This place was a hundred times more active and lively when the kiddies didn't have the balls to post shitty threads about suicide or some other equally meaningless thing because they feared being shunned by the regulars and molested by the mod.

Won't comment on your Tuuba thing since it's clear that at this point it's far too late for you to realise anything.
