You are born to wibble with the weaboos, you don't choose to.

It's still a sinful life choice etc etc, and you go to hell because it says so in the quran.

They don't, the posts that they do which include anime stand out more because it's something you don't like.
but i hate everything

so...

i don't see how it could possibly stand out

It was a general statement, anime posts are quite distinctly noticeable because of the brighter colours/cartoon style shit.

Seriously, it's a forum...
Snip for emergency discussion >_______>

The fuck is going on here.
You didn't snip it?
I snipped it out because it unfortunately disclosed several details about users who may not have wished that to have happened. It wasn't anything malign at all, but I'm just erring on the side of caution here. Playing it safe and removing it >.>

Sandtrap made a very good point with it though.
I didn't read it, but I doubt it would make me think of a forum as anything more than a place to waste a little bit of time. If people are having personal problems then they should walk away from the computer and deal with real life issues.
It wasn't really to do with making the forum anything more than a forum, it was to show that people on the forum have all kinds of shit to deal with.

And as for walking away from the computer, that works for people being mean on facebook or some inane crap like that. For the people with serious problems IRL, walking away and 'dealing with them' isn't as simple as it sounds. It's a mixture of escapism and ugh the word escapes me but there is a proper term for it.

One of the points I made earlier, is that some people have issues that cannot simply be resolved on their own and require the attention of a professional. Some can, and they eventually do, but not everyone.

I don't see why disliking anime means people need to shit on it.

Are we all broken on some level

Yes
And should we do something about it?

Not unless asked. For some, being offered help is more painful than being ignored.
^I'd just like to highlight this point again <_____<

It's better to have the door open for people to reach out than to drag them through it with an offer, sometimes it is necessary to do so (Sectioning) but yeah >.>

Everyone is broken on some level, most people function well enough though and that's really the ultimate aim of helping anyone.

To use a biological example,
You have a piece of living human flesh, say their arm. You take a knife and cut about 1cm into it for about 5 cm distance. If you take the knife out, it'll heal over in time and you'll be left with a scar. The tissue isn't perfect but it's functional again. If you left the blade in there, it wouldn't heal and if it did it would be opened up as soon as the knife is moved.

To turn it back to a mental point, everyone has scars. Some people have open wounds though, with all kinds of shit festering inside of it. Helping them clean it out and letting it seal up properly is the aim of the game.

When it comes to repairing each other though, that's a trickier one.

For being a supportive friend, that's something most people can do. Fixing some of the more serious problems that people face, that's something that professionals need to do. It's not a 'psychs only club' because I'm not in that category, I've said it to the point of nausea but I think most people know that I'm just a student but someday I will be qualified to help people properly. For now, I do the best with what I know because to use an example of someone unrelated to the forum - What they had to put up with in their head all the time was awful, really fething messed up. They couldn't see a proper Psychologist about it because of financial issues but I did my best to help them figure out a way to handle it from what I've either learned in my textbooks or what I was given as treatment when I was lucky enough to see a shrink about the fucked up shit in my head.

They used it, it worked and voila - one year down the line they aren't troubled by that stuff anymore.

What I'm getting at though, is that some people can't really be repaired by kindness and people being nice on a forum. There are things that can be fixed and helped by that, sure. But there are some problems that really need someone qualified to handle it, but because of the shitty nature of access to the services it's not really an option for a lot of people.

So, by all means, help each other as much as you can >.>
I'd just advise people to remember there are limits to what can be achieved with first aid as opposed to surgery <.<

The internet is serious business though.

And shitposting is subject to the official Haram/Halal judgement list, if it's found to be in violation of islamic scriptures then you get a nice little disgustedmuslimman.jpeg and a lock. If it's halal then depending on how lazy I am feeling at the time you may either get a post of certified halal [pleasedmuslimman.png] or it's ignored.

Allah akbar everyone.

I can't believe they let a radical Muslim be a mod. Did your oil sheik daddy buy you that position?
Actually it was blackmail and a trojan horse scheme.

inb4 people blame Is-

Oh, I see Meta is already here.
What the fuck are we supposed to blame? Poverty? No criminal has ever murdered children for money.

In Islam? Possibly. Here? Sure

Mom in North Carolina Kills 2 Sons for Insurance Money

Mom shoots Child in Stroller, had a "financial interest in his death"

Meanwhile, a Dad kills his son to play a video game

Crazy people are going to do crazy shit - no matter their religion, political beliefs, etc.
I meant a massacre. Of course people kill each other and kids over nothing.

But nobody has killed a group of children over poverty. They do it because they're deranged or over their beliefs.

Exactly. They do it because they are crazy and believe they need to take their beliefs to the furthest most point.

You have seen it in every religion throughout history - only reason it seems SO more prevalent now is because we have a 24 hour news media to report on this shit at any hour of the day. Not diminishing the tragedy, but to solely blame a belief without examining the psyche of the perpetuator is just as bad.
LOL

Tell me, when was the last time you heard of Catholics blowing up a school in South America because of their belief in god and the fact that they're Catholics?

Yes, a lot of them are deranged. But Islam is the reason they do the things they do. Why does the Taliban exist? Because they want to control the country and force a very strict understanding of the Quran. So, whether or not the higher ups in the organization believe in all this bullshit is irrelevant, because the foot soldiers do believe this shit. They do think they're going to paradise when they blow themselves up.

This shit is prevalent in the Middle East and in Africa because of Islam. Almost nowhere else do we have people killing each other over religion. Nope. Any country in South America? Nope. Mexico? Nope. All 3rd world places with poverty and high levels of violence, but rarely is it over religion.
Not in South America, but have you ever taken a look at the troubles in ireland?
Catholics and Protestants were, and some still are, killing each other in the street over their beliefs. Add the whole independence/unionist stances to the mix and boom.

Go back a couple of hundred years to this not very well known war
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirty_Years%27_War
8 million casualties because the Catholics wanted to wipe out the Protestants.

What's going on in the middle east is the same sort of shit that went on with Christianity a few hundred years ago.
That's the thing though, this shit is going on in 2014. It's embarrassing to the human race.

Nobody's denying that. The point is we don't need to worry about it because Martin Luther kicked all of that shit off in 1517.

The stuff with Islam is happening today.

I know <.<

It was an example though, that history is repeating itself again but for a different group of people/religion. Preferably there can be a slightly better option than going on a 30 year bongarong in the middle east but we've already been over there since the 80s and the gulf war soooooo >______>

Considering how they were indoctrinated from an early age to practically worship the Imperial family and that 'death before dishonour' was a good idea™

Let alone the almost clockwork levels of obedience to one's elders/superiors found in grorious nippon. So yeah, I have sympathy for the grunts used as pawns for the ambitions of the leaders.

If you want an example of why I don't have a lot of sympathy for those above the rank of 'cannon fodder' then take a look at Unit 731's lovely work. It makes Mengele seem like a pussy.

Well, what if it is acknowledged as satire, but opens the gate for serious discussion, instead if just starting out with shitposting and leading to shitpost comments?

You see, this is my line of thinking <.<

If the satire raises a good point for discussion, then I don't see why it should be haram for the serious board. If it's just to have a good laugh at idiots i.e 'Obama confirms that he is indeed a muslim reptile from saudia arabia sent to destroy christianity'

The minute one team gets a bit demoralised, it turns into a rapefest. I've played enough to know when the team is wavering and usually unless you can do something insane like arm an MCOM solo they all just pussy out and go to hide at the back of the map with Sniper Rifles and mortars.

That and the awful map balance doesn't help.

You could tell it wasn't going to end well when the shooting lasted more than a few seconds.

It wouldn't surprise me if in the coming days/months it turns out that they botched it. From the sounds of it though, the 'cleric' was a right piece of work so I doubt it would have ended well either way.

IIRC one of the lead devs was tied to some Neo-Nazi group, so I'm not exactly crying over the thought of skinheads losing out on money.

I could be wrong though <.<
Banning games for the political views of one of their devs seems like a mighty slippery slope.
I'm not saying that it should be banned because they might be nazis, I'm just saying I'm not crying over lost shekels that would go to their pockets.

The game is just bad news for everyone, it's more ammo to the soccer moms association of funkilling for example. And I bet Jack fucking Thompson squealed with delight when he saw the reveal trailer <____<

It looks like it will be funny because of how badly they are trying to be edgy with it, but short of cringe factor material there isn't a lot it has going for it.

Well take a look at the native american council thread, that was a satirical post but it generated 3 pages of discussion over immigration issues. Until it ended in QQs but eh, that's pretty inevitable when certain members start to argue.

Water can be a solid depending on the temperature.
Only you'd look idiotic and should feel idiotic if you were to call ice "water" or vice-versa.

My very obvious point being, no, having satirical content in here is stupid. One of those "no shit" type of issues. Serious means serious.

Which is true, but only because of the way everyone is taught to distinguish between the two.
