What if they use insults and/or 'hooked jabs' that bait the victim into lashing out at them etc?

I bring more positivity to this site in one day than you have in your entire time here, poser. Every single post you make is negative and antagonistic, like the ones you've made in this thread so far.

I'm entitled to dislike it and remain. What exactly entitles you to dictate what I feel about this place or do based on that?

I am not going to pander to sympathising with bullies just to justify that I oppose a ban on myself and a moderation team that polices it.

Ragnar and David selectively moderate with disproportionate sentences that have no rehabilitative measures at all. A 'restraining order' can help when rehabilitation has failed but they sooner ban you than use them and sooner use them than encourage reconcilitation.

Moderation is a very artistic job, it is not a strict science, the nuances are not for all to catch.

Freedom of speech is about the government allowing you to express your political and religious outlook. Even that has limits if it brings harm.

You are harming Bearman with your speech, it has 0% positive impact on either his emotions, your emotions or the game.

It is very important to get to the root of why he was criticising you and why you lashed out verbally to maintain decorum in the game and keep it pleasant not just for you but the others in the game with you.

I'm not sure your issue is with this site then. Try to say that on facebook or in real life as a reaction to someone saying you are bad at something, the discipline will happen.

What you describe as the 'right to hash it out' is an illusion because why don't the mods have the right to hash it out with you too? It's their game you're in. I don't agree with retributive-rooting in justice. It should be about solving the issue. The player who was calling you bad and making you feel hurt should also be encouraged to apologise and clean up their act. There's no reason to abuse each other unless moderators truly are neglecting things entirely and it's really a trollfest. In that case, leaving the site is often better than engaging the trolls.

While your reply was a bad reaction (and actually you don't need to change the 'u' to a 'v' there's no in-built filter in DART), it could be resolved in better ways than a modkill.

I am all about rehabilitation.

People who Don't Wear Masks in a Pandemic are Absolute Morons
-->
@BearMan
I mean come on bro. It doesn't restrict your breathing, it doesn't do anything. 
This is utter nonsense. It does restrict breathing and people with breathing difficulties or phobia of wearing masks will experience genuine harm while wearing it. Additionally, someone who was just tested negative for Covid-19 has basically got no reason to wear it for the next few hours, assuming everyone else was wearing a mask and/or distant from them.

Deaf people often struggle severely to communicate during this era, it's really hampering their ability to go about daily life as they have mastered lip reading. Over 60% of sign language is in the lip movements and facial experessions.

Good mice/mousepads
-->
@WaterPhoenix

This is something I'd recommend if you simply want a mousepad that feels nice or whatever. I personally don't think mousepads are necessary if your chair's arms are sufficiently built to rest on but if you want one that's decent and not super expensive, I recommend that mousepad.

@WaterPhoenix
Actually your price range is fine if you mean that's for each product.

A decent mousepad for ergonomic purposes is around $15. The cheaper ones can look nice and say they're ergonomic but the softness of the wrist-rest is often too much or too little.

I genuinely don't understand what you think you just disproved but if China is what you model your environment management by, then it explains why we disagree so much.

How pro life (or pro choice) are you on abortion?
In my worldview, we each exist to benefit society. A fetus whose own life would be detrimental to itself and a huge drain on the economy and its family doesn't even want it on top of being poor is a case of the net-benefit being to not let it be born.

To me, every single sperm cell we ejaculate and egg that is bled out during a period are all potentially equally wasted to a zygote in terms of the potential to procure human life. This is not inherently immoral, we should produce life when its a benefit to us and society.

This is also why I am left-wing and want to reduce the circumstantial aspects that make raising a child undesirable (because the poor will have sufficient welfare) while also increasing the access to in-depth sexual education and availability of things like contraceptives. I think porn should not be a taboo and that we should embrace masturbation as a healthy alternative to sex, especially in younger, single people. It should be 0% seen as immoral or unhealthy.

I am not discounting what an addiction to masturbation and porn can entail. I also would encourage rehabilitation and again a lack of taboo about discussing said addictions.

Your right-wing brethren are saying Biden didn't endorse the green new deal, now the question is who is lying.

Either way around, we have a climate change denier on one side and someone trying to stop it on the other... I side with Biden.

Still waiting.

Green New Deal being deemed bad is curious too but I expect nothing less nonsensical from a right-wing 'libertarian' (you can't have liberty when the rich ruthlessly rule the poor so I put it in quotation marks).

As for the debate, it was a landslide victory for Biden, at no single point did Trump's logic or quality of speech even come close. Trump was a caveman in both etiquette and content.

MisterChris is deluded and brainwashed by right wing propaganda and I will be told this statement is harassment but harassment would be to say that he's a right-wing shill. He isn't, he's just a victim of them.

I once had high hopes for Donald.
I never had high hopes for Donald John Trump, in fact even The Apprentice of his was far inferior of a show to Alan Sugar's one.

The guy used to be a cunning prick, now he's just a repulsive one who has lost his cunning and instead is the face of several cunning investors and string-pullers while preaching about being a pseudo-rebel to the establishment that he's enslaved to and adores.

Good mice/mousepads
-->
@WaterPhoenix
The best mouspads are plain and dark-coloured, fancy-appearing mousepads were only a worthwhile thing when we had ball-navigated mice that didn't run on lasers which can be confused by changing colours.

If you want a truly 'good mousepad' that is ergonomic for the wrist during heavy use of the computer, it's never going to be a cheap option.

How fast do y'all type?
So, if I'm spoken to and type it up like a secretary who is doing a write-up of a board meeting or court case, I am extremely proficient.

If I do the same thing from handwriting to screen, I'm slowed down as my brain seems to interpret visuals at a more in-depth and slower thought process.

I type extremely fast at actual sentences and words from my brain to the screen.

If I have to type based on the normal test method of 'reading and typing' I am slowed not by my fingers' clumsiness but by my brain intaking the word and spending time instinctively thinking about the meaning.

@Intelligence_06
If I had a nickel when I get eliminated near the end of the game, I would have three nickels, which isn't a lot, but it is weird that it happened three times.
Weaker players are often left alive by both mafia and town for later on as it is assumed by both sides that they can be handles and will slip at a later date whereas it is feared that stronger players will arrange things to hide their allegiance if they're mafia.

That said, I myself often survive far into games and appearing weak is a good thing to do for this purpose. If I am unpredictable and at times outing a wrong read or two as well as known to scumtell later on in a game potentially, scum will leave me alive. As for being left alive by town, it depends on the crowd and how 'weak' they perceive me.

Usually the day 1 or 2 lynch, if it wasn't someone slipping or harshly scumtelling, is a player that most townies on the lynch feared being scum and pulling off good moves later on in thegame.

@Barney
So step up to to the plate, if you are not the RationalMadman who authored those posts, who was?
The same motherfucker telling you I didn't harass a single member in a targeted manner. Anyone who was targeted on this site saw me be their shield long before any rules were truly enforced.

Let me make this crystal clear for you and anyone stepping into this scene thinking they know a damn thing about me:

  1. I am the one who made Bsh1 realise he had to stop being so laissez-faire in a hypocritical manner where he would enforce hard on some and not on others.
  2. I am the one who encouraged Bsh1 to step down to Virtuoso and planted the seed in his brain and the community's mind that ensured Virtuoso' uprisal back when everyone was 'all or nothing' with the duo.
  3. I am the one who, before when things were chaos, stood up to the bullies along with ethang5. 
  4. I am the one you owe for the serenity of generally fair rule enforcement, having been heavily involved in many decisions by Bsh1 and Virtuoso behind the scenes you don't even know about.
Fuck all you newcomers thinking you know shit, upvoting someone (Ragnar) who bullied me before becoming mod in a really sadistic and immature manner which he wouldn't want me to bring up him being the 'author of'. You don't know me or my story but what I know is this; I never went after anyone in a targeted harassment manner. Those I called out to play were those who could take it and this is proven at the fact that the very people you spearheaded the case against me with not only were shocked you even suggested I harassed them but loathed the ban.

I am someone who Seldiora likes more than Ragnar and Virtuoso a million times over. Seldiora doesn't even understand what's going on. You don't know shit, he respects me because I am a true OG who was friendly to him before this site even existed.

You don't know the story, you don't know my life or my character. What you know is a ridiculous pseudo-depiction of a storyline Ragnar and Virtuoso/David literally fictitiously made up and wrote which includes flat out lies about stuff I never did like multi-accounting here. How about you mods tell them I just 2-3 days ago noticed and told Type1 to out himself to you? I spotted him and told him to do that and worked with him to get free wins? Delusional. 

I am what I am, for those who want a true depiction hit me up and actually get to know me. It won't be easy but those worthy will have a highly intelligent and loyal friend for life, which I have been for some on this site who themselves chose to break ways with me for whatever reason.

When people picked on and harassed Virtuoso, I defended him even after he was part of the decisions Bsh1 made to ban me temporarily before. I did the same for Castin and quite a few other in the Religions forum. One guy who liked me a lot for how I tried to get justice for him against MAR while Bsh1 was in charge was a user called Raltar.

You can sit there fucking pretending I am some bully-ass villain. I am familiar with your narrative. I lost whatever respect I had for you now, Ragnar. I'm sad that you have lost your integrity and hope you find it again some day.
