I've yet to see any bannings on the first pages of those threads, has it started yet?

The fireworks start at 5PM ET.

I'm a european and I'm not offended.

If we actually are part neanderthal, it's a simple fact.

If we aren't, it's a lie/attempted insult, so what?


People are offended far too easily nowadays. Bunch of sissies.

But I offended myself.

Anyone going to do a live stream with commentary?

 

[noah111]

I quite liked Sentry's post here.

Banned or not, the doesn't feel bad.


But seriously, your post is informative, specifically about derailings. I don't think a lot of people (myself included) understand exactly how that usually works, or what warrants consequence in those cases. I remember the punishment for those in the gaming side (back then, anyway) being especially brutal. Don't think OT really experiences that as much unless, like you said, it's something absurd but still relating to the topic.

Well we could all duck into tinychat and eat popcorn

 

[Rentahamster]

you're the hero GAF needs, but doesn't deserve

GAF totally deserves my stealth references to PEINS every fifth post.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

I'm surprised nobody's made "Who will get banned"-bingo cards or something similar to that yet. That seems like a thing some gaffers would do.

Maybe that's just gaming-side behaviour though.

Agreed. I'm a neanderthal but I have no problem when people call me European.

That's a great idea, but it might get us banned.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Man, all these people running around like headless chickens are making my night

 

[Ovid]

I'm pretty sure it will. Making fun of members getting banned isn't cool.

 

[Hot Coldman]

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

Goddamn, Bish.

 

[Joates]

Dont include your name on the card, problem solved.

 

[Devolution]

I can't stop waiting for that guy who comes from the back to the front, I caught myself watching this over and over.

It really is quite amusing. Still haven't looked at either of those threads yet, but maybe I'll do a quick skim before the bannings start and try to see if my guesses align.

What a mess of a post before the edit: "Evil ores gonba be pissed when he gets gill"

Really? People make fun of Wario64 getting banned all the time.

 

[Rentahamster]

I was with you!

Then I gave up.

Top stickied thread.

I meant to abort the botched post but I hit the wrong button. Stupid phone. Edit was clutch though.

The two stickied threads at the top of the page.

Oh... Oh my... lol

I like this new form of public execution.

 

[Tookay]

But for another, I think it demonstrates a worldview that assumes anybody who acts offended by somebody's post is either faking it for devious reasons of their own or actively seeking out being offended for the affect of it all, aka borderline personality disorder -- because there's no way anybody could be GENUINELY offended by that post. Frankly, this kind of question-begging seems far more echo chambery to me than the people who are trying to explain exactly why they think such statements are problematic and harmful to the community.

Weren't you one of the posters mocking Republicans for being faux-outraged a while ago in one of the Biden threads?

I thought the first edit when you left "it" in the post was a little humorous.

 

[replicashooter]

Oh... Oh my... lol

As somebody looking at the post with fresh eyes, how does it seem?

 

[Wiseblade]

So what's going to happen in 45 minutes? Are a bunch of names in those two threads going to turn grey at once? Is bish going to make a statement?

 

[Hoo-doo]

It's all a ploy, Bish isn't going to ban anyone.

He just wanted you all to tremble in fear for 12 hours straight.

 

[Ovid]

I guess his tag says it all.

Bloody hand with a dirty reputation...

Nope, you're half right. It's a ploy to see who gets enjoyment out of bannings and then they cull this thread instead.

Then why did he just upload this pic to facebook?

I don't know but everyone escaping from a ban should get a tag for being so lucky.

LOL NO WAY

 

[Ravensmash]

No one will be banned but posters will become bish's army of slaves who must be on hand for his every need.

My angus is peppered.

I just saw the stickied creepshots and Egyptians threads. This should be entertaining.
