No I saw it coming eventually lol. That's why I was so self-assured and prepared for it.
making a thread about it here to ask who was in the right doesn't make you look very self-assured

If it was delivered in a clinical way, and the person had actual evidence to back it up, then it would be allowed. I've said that even people arguing for phrenology can go into volcano. It's marked as a NSFW channel for a reason.
is this a popular section of the server, or does it rarely get posted in
It's the third channel down. It's in the main chats. This is how my server is laid out:

Spoiler

so did you not see anything like this coming or what

sooooooo did anyone end up playing this? the resident kojima fanboy is out of the building, so it hasn't really been posted about

i beat it two months ago and thought about posting a review, but i decided it wasn't worth it

anyway, i absolutely loved it—8/10—but i feel like most of you wouldn't like it

how would you respond if someone entered the #volcano debate section and said "it's my personal belief that white people are superior to all other races"

the topic never comes up anywhere else; only in this designated channel that affords them absolute free speech, expressed in the most vanilla way possible

would you tolerate this? just curious as to how far this goes for you

there's no reason to ban anybody for having stupid opinions, but if the server really had been advertised as a "safe space" for these weak, weak people who so desperately need attention, or want to cling to the notion that they're special, or whatever the fuck is going on in their developing prepubescent minds, then it's not shock that they'd leave once the illusion that they're trying to maintain is shattered
Well, that's how it is advertised

I guess it's about TV shows. If I to believe to the description "Television connects us all" it's an open, wide... umm discord server. I don't think there is a one defined community in there, so things like that is bound to happen quite often until some sort of community will take a shape.
you're right, the description is so vague that you can project anything you want

what it should probably say instead is "a modest server with a focus on freedom of expression" because that's clearly the most important ideal to secondclass

empathy is a good thing to emphasize, but not if it's going to foster that stereotypical snowflake mentality where no one's allowed to have conversations about gender in a way that makes you uncomfortable

I don't think it makes you lesser minded at all. I thought you thought that.
it makes you fragile and incredibly thin-skinned, which are qualities in a person that i find difficult to respect

but that doesn't say anything about your intelligence, as far as i'm concerned

I take issue with this. At no point did I advertise my server as a safe space. People assumed it was a "safe space" because it was an LGBT/trans server that had strict rules against slurs, harassment, etc.
i would have to be stupid to take your word for it 100%, so i'm naturally going to assume that you're leaving out details because you're sick of looking bad

And you absoluitely can have LGBT people in a designated debate/free speech room. We aren't lesser minded just because of being LGBT lol. The sensitive ones don't speak for all of us.
wanting a drama-free safe space doesn't make you lesser minded, and it's weird that you think otherwise

edit:
don't you love when you accidentally leave out an important word like DOESN'T

i've just always been into the idea of forcibly breaking out of our biological limitations, because that's just how crafty we are

that said, non-binaries as a generalization are some of the most insufferable people i've ever seen

i actually think i might possibly be non-binary myself, because i've never really felt "at home" with my maleness in any real sense, but i've suppressed a lot of my own gender exploration just because i don't want the association

fundamentally, whatever the fuck it is i am, it doesn't matter anyway, and it certainly doesn't make me special—even if i came to the conclusion that i wasn't actually a cisman, for purely practical purposes, i cannot imagine obliging anybody to indulge me, or making any sort of fuss about it whatsoever

i won't say they don't exist, but i will say that i haven't met one who i've wanted to be friends with

i'd like to speak to a reasonable NB so they can help me understand where they're coming from, but as you have shown, a lot of these people aren't equipped for those kinds of discussions, because that would require them to entertain a notion that makes them feel "excluded" in some way, and people hate being put on the defensive all the time

given that you haven't provided the full story, i'm inclined to side with the people leaving

there's no reason to ban anybody for having stupid opinions, but if the server really had been advertised as a "safe space" for these weak, weak people who so desperately need attention, or want to cling to the notion that they're special, or whatever the fuck is going on in their developing prepubescent minds, then it's not shock that they'd leave once the illusion that they're trying to maintain is shattered

having a designated debate room where free speech absolutism is a cornerstone in what's been advertised as a safe space for LGBT+ people is a very poor mixture, and you really can't have both

it also sounds like some people left not because of the decision not to ban that person, but because you personally made it a much bigger thing than it needed to be by going on and on about it, to a point where you had people saying "okay fine, can we just drop it now" at the very beginning of the logs (clearly showing this went on for a much longer time than was shown)

no one wants to be part of a channel that's led by some raving druggie, despite the fact that you will never accept that that's what you are

i certainly think it's cool that you won't ban someone for having incendiary opinions, but perhaps if you made the intentions of the server clearer, you wouldn't be having this mass exodus of people who thought this was a drama-less server

this is also why nobody here is going to join, ever, because you're the one running it, and you've consistently proven that you don't know the first thing about how to run something like this

fun times, but i wish some more QoL things had been implemented

the fact that manila clams don't stack, and that they have to be crafted one by one, is kinda horseshit

although i haven't seen one, the existence of a "feminine" penis is not wholly inconceivable to me

it helps when you don't find yourself attracted to either sex organ

update: decided to try SL1, but am stuck on the bell gargoyles. starting to think this won't last long.
nothing a few titanite shards wouldn't sneeze at

there's really only one weapon you should be using, too, and i'm gonna assume you already know what that is

You're skipping May and going into June with Spongebob: Battle For Bikini Bottom Rehydrated
i hesitate to count remasters and shit, but i might just get this anyway, if only because it's really cool that it's happening at all, and it was never part of my childhood

Do you play multiplayer games?
yeah, but i'm about as picky as you would imagine

i was thinking about going for Ninjala just because it's free even though it looks dumb

Because it’s cool
Shields are cooler. What if you exclusively shielded all attacks, and never did any rolls?

Could you sit with the cool kids then, and post shit like ">he rolls"?

Rolling is much better and Anor Londo snipers aren’t hard but bonewheels are
Even the weakest greatshield in the game completely invalidates bonewheels.

Rolling is better, but why limit yourself to that when you don't have to? You're just risking death for no reason.

>using a shield
Unless you want to make the game more challenging for some arbitrary reason, there's literally no reason not to, especially if you're going to use a spear. I bet you think Anor Londo snipers or bonewheels are annoying to deal with.

>dex build

Just kidding I don’t know why people hate dex so much
I think it's because poking enemies with a spear behind a shield is considered lame/cheesy, but the same people who feel that way also think that two-handing a greatsword for the entire game is the only way to play, even though that could also be seen as boring and cheesy.

I watched that show religiously as a kid, liked it much better than Spongebob which I found creepy at times.

Take that as you will.

It doesn't really matter much, but the wanderer has the best outfit, and high starting dexterity means you'll have easier access to some of the cooler weapons in the game.

You could one-up your brother and cousin by going pyromancer for a SL1 run, if you're up for that.
