ROFL, first day on the internet?

Still waiting to be able to link.

Not saying you do it but if someone disagrees or dislikes a post then they should have a discussion about what they dislike about it instead of just randomly flagging it.

Also not sure if its true but earlier someone said that if a post is flagged that the person who made the post can’t go back and edit it. That seems kind of crazy lol.

This is arguably the single biggest issue in “culture war.” Its Us vs Them. No concept of compromise or cooperation. People are all to eager to sacrifice character and morals for a “victory.”

The irony is that modern democracies are built on the concept of disagreement. People are supposed to have different thots and opinions. Banging those concepts against each other to see how they can work together is how the planet has seen the most prosperous, egalitarian, and technological advancement in human history. The more we refuse to listen to each other, the further we get from that original social contract.

One thing that would eliminate all the random flagging is only being able to do it on one toon and not all your alts. I have no proof of this but I am willing to bet that some of the post that are flagged are from a lot of alts.

O.o

OP reported as well.

245

I never denied it happening. Obviously false flaggers need to be taken care of better. Do you just try to argue?

246

Yep like with last 2 people OP reporting you as well.

Rhielle, you’re awesome and we’re behind you.

I was going to go and insult the intellectually-challenged individuals who are flagging you, but what’s the point.

Wasn’t picking a fight with you, just emphasizing the thing you said shouldn’t be happening is exactly what the case is. Didn’t mean it as a statement to point out the obvious, more that the discussion had progressed to the point of dealing with the current dilemma. Sorry for not wording that better.

252

I agree, we’re behind you like a rogue ganking a lowbie!
(Ha! I crack myself up sometimes!)

It’s Trolling

This post is inflammatory, extraneous or upsetting.

this forum is the same place that preaches get thicker skin in threads complaining about racism in trade chat

obviously the same people aren’t making the posts, but it’s funny that someone getting trolled with flagging brings out all the “community gotta be nice y’all” rhetoric
