Aaaand with that lovely post above my last one, locking this thread to do some clean up and such. Sorry to kill the legitimate discussion going on, but some people can't play nice >.>

Attracting new members being our goal, amicability is more important than moderating well.
Having an argument over the role of a moderator in a 300 + front page thread likely doesn't make this place appealing. Carry on though.

So?
The weebs on the staff all have their online persona taken over by weebery.
Again, I fail to see your point for this - while I joke about the staff being overrun by weebs, the fact is they are on staff because they can do the job of moderating and do it well. We don't pick users based on their cultural enjoyments, we pick them based on if they can moderate a forum.

Alright you two, cool it. The point has been said, move on or some punishments will be dealt out accordingly.

How is it not canon?
It is not canon because Lucas is a sellout to Disney, and nothing done since the sale counts.

Wait, what?
The Force Awakens is not canon. Neither is the shitty tv shows that Disney has created, all the while destroying the EU.

Only KOTOR and the prequels are canon in my mind
What a shitty philosophy.

Maybe I should amend my statement. The PPP is guilty of asking a stupid question, but it's the Guardian too busy rummaging for a headline (no surprises there) and I'm disappointed you didn't focus on what seems to be the more pertinent issue: the fact that 36pc believe Arabs in NJ cheered on 9/11. That is disgusting, and far more consequential than a bunch of Republicans wanting to bomb a city.
The two paired together are god awful.

I agree with SecondClass. The trust system is kinda dumb.
You should be able to dislike posts, sure, but taking away features just because someone doesn't like you?... That's just lame.
Obviously it should be made so that a vast majority of the community had to dislike a large number of posts so that your rank falters. Six users going on a downvote spree shouldn't impact it.

Not disputing the fact that giving votes more weight would just turn this site into a popularity contest circlejerk, I see

and does little to address the issue of a moronic voter base that would bomb a city with no information on it.
I'm disputing the legitimacy of this poll in measuring it.
It's from the premier polling agency in the United States - if it was from tabloid news that wanted a title, I'd take your stance. The PPP doesn't run like that.

A rank reset would be retarded.
And I say otherwise.
Let's hope Cheat doesn't go along with the great idea of punishing active users.
If not a rank reset, at least making it so that current downvotes play a stronger role.
I'd be fine with that.
Yeah, let's just restrict basic customization to users who win the daily popularity contest.

If somebody came up and asked me "Should be bomb Abdullahbuttfuckmiddleeasternnameistan" I'd probably ask a follow up. But my first thought would be "That's gotta have something to do with ISIS". That's honestly retarded, and does little to address the issue of a moronic voter base that would bomb a city with no information on it. Hence why Trump is dominating.

rank reset
lol what the fuck
It's become stale and boring since Cheat changed how the ranking and trust features act together - even the shittiest troll user can become high ranks since downvotes on their shit do little. He may as well remove any trust ranks beneath the initial blank one, because no one ever hits it.
So? Downvotes/upvotes should just be removed. It's all about post count and time spent online.
Nah, I enjoy the quality of the content have a role as well. A rank reset would be retarded.
And I say otherwise.

This is a non-story. This is the American voter base - 30% of the GOP (Perhaps more, if you take in the "I don't know" crowd") and 20% of Democrats saying they'd support bombing a city they know nothing about, except for that it sounds vaguely Middle Eastern. It's understandable in the face that you don't live here - but it's quite terrifying that people are this dumb and are voting for their next President in eleven months.

You know, the fictional city from Aladdin?Almost one-third of Republican primary voters would support bombing the fictional kingdom of Agrabah, according to a report released by Public Policy Polling on Friday.
More than 530 Republican primary voters were polled this week on their support for Republican candidates and foreign policy issues including banning Muslims from entering the US, Japanese internment camps from the second world war and bombing Agrabah, the kingdom from Disney’s animated classic, Aladdin.
In its poll, Public Policy Polling asked the 532 Republicans: “Would you support or oppose bombing Agrabah?” While 57% of responders said they were not sure, 30% said they supported bombing it. Only 13% opposed it.
Public Policy Polling also polled Democratic primary voters: only 19% of them said they would support bombing Agrabah, while 36% said they would oppose it.
Republican primary voters polled by the PPP aren’t just worried about Agrabah. Of those polled, 36% believe that thousands of Arabs in New Jersey cheered when the World Trade Center collapsed on 9/11. About 54% of those polled support banning Muslims from entering the United States and 46% support the creation of a national database of Muslims in the United States.
New Jersey officials and residents have repeatedly denied the claims of the post-9/11 celebrations, which were resurfaced last month by Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
“I watched when the World Trade Center came tumbling down. And I watched in Jersey City, New Jersey, where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down,” Trump said at a November campaign rally in Alabama.
Trump continues to stand by his remarks. He had also called for a “total and complete shutdown” of the country’s borders to Muslims in the wake of the San Bernardino terrorist attack.
According to the PPP, “[Donald] Trump is at 45% with Republicans who want to bomb Aladdin and only 22% with ones who don’t want to bomb Aladdin.”
Trump has been criticised by members of his own party for his anti-Muslim remarks.
“Banning all Muslims will make it harder for us to do exactly what we need to do, which is destroy Isis,” Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush said on Tuesday during the fifth Republican debate. “We need to engage with the Arab world to make this happen.”
But Trump’s remarks and proposals, however, have seemed to connect with some GOP voters.
One in four of those polled by the PPP said that Islam should be illegal in the US and that they support the US policy of Japanese internment during the second world war.
And we wonder why Donald Trump is winning... (Though in all fairness, the 19% of Democrats are just as bad)
