Kinda seems like the blizzwatch thread should just be moved back to cccc if it is just a chat thread, much like what happened with the thread where people spent years talking about the Xbox One having the wrong RAM until it became a chat thread. It's what that subforum exists for, no?

Vintersorg posted:This makes no sense but hey -- it's done. Whatever. Players of WoW won't have to be so tempted to read about their terrible treadmill. Why is this always the defense. I am not saying it was the worst thread in the forums or anything, I have no dog in this fight so I have no opinion on the quality of the thread itself. But it's always a crappy defense that the worst threads tend to use. Like to pull a Games example, back when the Star Citizen thread doxxed people who liked the spaceship game and people pointed out that doxxing was going on, the defense thread regulars used is that the people getting mad about the doxxing are just angry Star Citizen fans that are mad that their favorite game is being criticized. I don't get it!

tbh it's awfully nice of that sealion in the comic to try to have a civil debate in the face of such disgusting anti-sealion bigotry.

Reveilled posted:My two cents are that I don't really like people who get their kicks out of ruining others fun, which is what trolling is, and I wish we didn't tolerate it with slaps on the wrist. When people barge into threads to antagonise the posters there, it sucks, and I don't think we should tolerate it. Pretty much all enduring mock threads reach a point where the most prominent posters in the threads become (or perhaps reveal themselves as?) deranged freaks that are outright psychotic in their quest to be the biggest hater of whatever thing they're mocking, instead of having a chuckle and moving on. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Mega64 posted:Opinions differ on the Stux stuff, and that's definitely understandable, but I want to know what's the best way to handle weird stuff like the Pokemon posts Stux was replying to? I don't want to discourage criticism but there's posters who make very weirdly negative posts like that all over Games, and I'd love to find a way to discourage that sort of thing since then threads just get miserable to read. This is just one gamer's opinion but it's a real hard thing to balance because sometimes there's a bad reaction to someone saying something negative or even just mixed about a video game even if they're being polite and levelheaded about it. Therefore I propose a rule of thumb: Take mod action on this sort of thing if someone is posting screeds that make them sound like a jrpg villain (or if they're being extremely rude in a non-joking way I GUESS).
