excessive cursing in a belligerent manner,
Fmpov either excessive cursing itself is impermisible or its allowed. "In a belligerant manner" is too subjective of a metric imo 🤔. And such instances would more efficiently just be kept a part of "targeted harassment". If two people are going back and forth heatedly, usage of directed profane language excessive or otherwise, isnt imho something that would constitute as a punishable offense.
derailing threads not made to host drama,
This is an interesting point, and again would probably best fit within the targeted harassment metric. Fmpov if say two people have a tendency to get into heated arguments, might do so repeatedly, and would to easily be stretched to include ongoing drama.
________________
Flame wars themselves as an independent metric seems too broad as well. If the content in the flame wars themselves is violating ToS, that would be sufficient enough, no?
The only other complaint i can reasonably think of would potentially be others who have to witness it. But this is where a block functionality comes into play. Deleting of the thread itself if it was a violation of ToS or contains violations therein seems a facially obvious step that's wholly within reason to these violations.
For Restraining Orders, why would a block functionality not solve this? Restraining Orders seems redundant and fmpov seem to just be adding arbitrary behavioral requirements for the purpose of adding severity to an offense/ a desire to expand banning powers beyond things that themselves violate ToS. As shown by the previously stated:
A violation of a RO can make a setup for another temp ban super easy should another incident happen
If two people are going back and forth in such a manner that violates ToS, that itself would be all that's necessary as a metric for bans. Adding a behavioral standard that in itself, as presented would be predicated upon standards that are subjective and could lead to adjudicatory dilemma 🤔
If two users in an RO are in a thread together... just one perceived line referring to something vague could be taken as a dig at the other person in the RO, leading to another powder keg to explode
though the RO was present, the violations of it caused were not of intent to break the RO, rather, from a percieved breaking of it. Not sure I feel so positive about punishing actions that lack intent.
Behavioral standards like, "keep it civil" and "no drama" are best left up to the discretion of the users themselves to excercise through a block functionality. Maybe a block from seeing user (X) posts in (Y) thread functionality?
Slanderous posts themselves also seem like they would just fit under "targeted harassment". It's reasonable fmpov to have the expectation that heat generated in one thread should not spill over into others. However, the qualifier to that fmpov would be that the heat that spills over, not pertain to the topic of the thread created.
If person X and person Y get into it on topic A. But then proceed to also on topic B, C, and D, in threads that were individually created on those topics, That fmpov doesn't constitute as reasonable grounds to police behavior. 🤔
Plus, as Smithers pointed out, a block functionality once implemented will solve most of these issues

The issue most people have with IQ tests is that they misunderstand it as a measurement of innate intelligence independent of socio-economic factors. Its not, it just measure current intellitigence, and that IQ raises the more educated you become is thoroughly established.
Plus, i think this came up in another thread where I said that differences in average IQ are realatively meaningless because even though averages may differ, peak differentials are negligible.
Whereas say, peak strength differentials between women and men are hugely disproportionate to the tune of double to triple strength differentials if not more depending upon the type of excercise. 🤔

Imagine if I use Mage Hand to raise a metal bar above my head. Would I then be able to climb up the bar in any way?The hand can only support 10 pounds. So if your weight plus the bar is somehow 10 pounds or less, yes.
There is actually a spell that reduces weight right? Like feather fall or something like that 🤔

Since you get Performance from your background, you can get an additional skill proficiency.

(also as a sidebar note, Rational should be punished for editing posts).
I've already addressed this. There are benefits to disallowing editing, there are benefits to allowing it. I'm going to not punish Rational cause I didnt make a rule against it originally, but players should still refrain from editing so as to not regress the game into arguing as to the content of edited posts that can't be verified.
Im contemplating potential penalties for excessive editing, like more than once or twice in a game, for when the series has more players and a penalty such as a silencing for the rest of the DP, or modkill. Maybe 1st time, its all good. Second time its silence for the rest of the DP, Third time mod kill 🤔

This not to mean that is what is occurring, as said previous he has said nothing since a few days agoAs said previously, lurking is wholly acceptable fmpov and I dont require actual posting to count as active. Rather, just that I be notified in PM that oneself is indeed doing so 🔥

*substituted "black" for "Jew"? What would the proper order of that be 🤔
Created:
Most people will not have qualms with labelling Hitler a racist,
Funnily enough, the Democrat South was too racist even for the Nazi's, they thought the one drop policy was absurd. They took the blueprints of it and essentially just substituted "Jew" for "black" no joke 😮

I'm almost tempted to go Wizard now 😂, but I actually like the thought of a lore bard and eventually being able to learn spells outside my own class 😰😰

All depends on the resistances of what we are facing. I think, if I recall correctly, Rangers do possess some magic in the form of magical arrows that have different effects 🤔, charming animals, etc.
I wouldnt take my word for it tho, im not all too familiar with ranger

All depends, Wizards can get into enchanting and the like, Rangers can't, but Rangers if i recall can charm wildlife, which is pretty dope

Ranger wouldnt be a bad choice either. I can do some healing/buffing as a Bard. I lack ranged combat spells though, so having some sort of ranged DPS would be bueno 🤔
