Stop! Read this before you post:

Rule #1: Don't be a jerk.
Rule #2: Seriously, don't be a jerk, or you will get banned.
Rule #3: Moderators will have wide discretion to determine who is and who is not being a jerk.

Not quite, but that sums up the intent here. This forum is for general discussions of anything non-civ related. It will be lightly moderated, with moderation focusing mainly on the non-negotiable rules (language, no direct insults, no PDMA, no piracy etc). As far as the rest of it goes, you get a lot more flexibility here, but there are limits. Someone posting that political party X are a bunch of racists? Ok - prove it. Someone posting that ethnicity Y are all inferior - well, that violates the "don't be jerk" rule.

But be warned: While people who are being really rude and disruptive will be dealt with, people who post here will, within reason, be assumed to be internet-savvy users. If you set out to upset someone, and get upset yourself, then unless it's due to someone being overly rude or violating the "don't be a jerk" rule, then the helpful moderators will probably just suggest that you stay out of this forum.

3/10 could do better.

EDIT: Oh, I thought you moved everything to this forum from OT, I see you have tried to make some effort.

I still call April Fool's though

It is sad but i too expect it to be only for today. Although i think it would be a good move to keep the ot split, such as in other forums which have a "serious" ot and a ffa ot.

 

[Mise]

Yeah I don't see why they didn't just rename OT rather than moving every single thread from one forum to the other

Nice job ainwood.

 

[Mr. Dictator]

If this is permanent, I'll stay in this forum way more than the other. I dig myself some nice, subtle debate, but it gets so tiring sometimes.

We've been divided into two opposing camps? Perfect. Let the games begin.

Sounds like a pretty good gig to me imho. hopefully the joke is that it's not a joke.

That would be hilarious!

Everyone thinks it's a joke, but then tomorrow, all that changes are the names of these forums. Like, reverse of expectations.

 

[GamezRule]

It's better then just abolishing OT like last year.

 

[Heretic_Cata]

I'm drunk so i'll agree with whatever the op is saying

 

[W|M]

Give us back our postcount!

"This next challenge is for the Immunity Idol!"

 

[GenMarshall]

Give us back our postcount!

This I'm inclined to agree. Even if this segment of the forums is lighthearted. The majority of topics aren't spam.

The problem with nice, subtle debate is that I find myself with no real criticism of their position. Far better just to yell at people who clearly are wrong.

No infraction without post count representation!

You should sig that

 

[shadowplay]

How about: "Give me postcount or give me death!"

Or "You can take my postcount from my cold, banned hands!"
