Story Forum Community Lounge (Part 2)

I am never going to call it X.

The guy who named his kid X AE A-XII does not get to ever name anything ever again.

Itā€™s actually an ingenious name. That person clearly knew he was going to destroy the platform through mismanagement.

Now he owns the X (Ex) Social Media Platform!!

Someone decoded it, it just means ā€˜Kyle.ā€™ Techno Mechanicus, thatā€™s his other kid.

It sounds like a transformer.

Woah, that was the quickest faction reversal ever. Droma is just a fleeting memory until she can be re-created for Season of Discovery. Thank you for your service, Orc Queen. :saluting_face:

The game plunked me into the Exodar and set my hearth there, but itā€™s amusingly misspelled ā€œThe Exobarā€ on the hearthstone tooltip and it made me snort so it will henceforth be named as such.

Sounds like some kind of hipster bar that charges $20 for a drink in a mason jar.

Ok, so maybe I wish I didnā€™t know this, butā€¦

That isnā€™t a misspelling.

Itā€™s the actual name of the Exodarā€™s inn.

If Mods can hear us and create a new Lounge maybe they can hear us and take action against the creepy guy in the Paletress thread. OMG. why is he still allowed to post?!

I am saying this again becauseā€¦

Demographic quotas? They need to keep a certain percentage of incels subscribed for some government funding.

Some of the stuff thatā€™s allowed to build around here suggests that at least some of the mods are perfectly ok with what is being said.

I flagged and I was given a warning for the first time ever that said ā€œThis post has already been flagged for moderator attention. Are you sure you wish to reply to it? Replies to negative content tend to encourage more negative behavior.ā€ Even the forum is saying ā€œDo you really want to fight this fight Mithonic?ā€

The answer is yes.

(but itā€™s also like 10:30 and I have work in the morning. so if heā€™s not silenced by then)

I threw a flag down too. If this backfires on us and we both end up sitting in the quiet corner, Iā€™ll hold hands with you so we can make it through this!!

Also, btag for anyone interested. MochaElf#1754

I suspect because understanding whatā€™s discomfiting requires context ā€“ I doubt I was the only one yellow flagged on the topic inherently, but it seems I was the only one who knew the meaning of a certain early word.

Thatā€™s not an excuse; these arenā€™t new problems, and we deserve better community management than out-of-context queue tag by overworked people.

itā€™s not like the mods donā€™t know obscure references, I was given a 2 week timeout for a comment on the apparatus of mechagnomes, named after an Ancient Greek city.

My one and only ban from the forums was a speculation thread about the arcanobabble differences between a curse and a magical debuff; I gave a very loose analogy to the cellular mechanisms of a class of real-life disease and this got me aā€¦ three day? ban for offensive content.

Not that it matters but Iā€™m out of flags to throw for the next 18 hoursā€¦ Iā€™m taking a break from the forums. The lack of active mods is stressing me out. Time to put in some good old soloing in an MMO.

Ryona? I kinda know what it means. I only ever hear of it from anime weebs. Doesnā€™t it mean beating women or something? I wasnā€™t expecting to ever see that word on these forums.

I donā€™t want to discuss it in detail here, both out of respect for the comfort of the other posters and because of the aggressive if slipshod content moderation here. If youā€™re in-game on MG Iā€™ll message you about it.

Iā€™ll probably look up the definition of it at some point when Iā€™m not feeling lazy. I would now but I donā€™t want anyone in this bar to glance at my phone and wonder why Iā€™m looking at that. Already had a similar situation happen before.
