the funniest response to this would be to randomly use different ones every time i refer to the person (because they took the trait that make them invisible)
@Alex i am fine with that being the design. the gimmick of enigma is that your character is basically a living scramble suit. it tells you as such before you take it.
i will however refuse to take any bitching if someone takes it and complains about its direct effects
gonna make friendos upset but my tl;dr is that the admins are woke but don't even add new content. it's not an old game becoming something new, its an old game full of mall cops.
Another issue is that the game lacks any way for a player to define their actual pronouns separate from the character, making age an unreliable choice at all, so expecting people to actually use it to determine a players pronouns is a bad idea to begin with
@Alex yeah... none of the stewards care about the game. they're just turning up xp gains for old times sake or "now WE get to be the tyrants!"
gutting the party system is like the last straw for me. its not really a major change, but i have to stack it in the context of
- they already banned a guy for a silly trump quote - then grand standed about how the admins are left wing supremacists about it - banned an autistic person over false sexual assault allegations - the community admin doesn't bother to reply to anything except solely to be snippy about rejecting it - partys gutted because some edgy retard fucked around like a retard and found out
i can't actually spot anything these people have done other than the usual left wing shitboxing they all do
I played over a year ago, saw unfinished player housing in Weezer, and was like "oh cool Weezer house soon, I like Weezer". Pick it up a week ago, go to the player housing, still not finished somehow. Help files that give incorrect info I reported over a year ago still haven't been corrected.
@Alex i think for me there is a personal issue of most of what i feel about today is "note in the time bottle to enjoy the time you have more, be nicer to that guy in the wheelchair, you will never have real friends and its only going to get worse" i can't really say anything about other people wrt. this, but it's been my ongoing observation life only ever gets worse and more fucking stupid.
from the other people aspect, i'm growing to hate everything left of center becaue they seem to be chronically incapable of doing anything but skinsuit center to center-right institutions for the sole purpose of driving them directly in to the ground
i could probably bring a whole grid up in evenia before they do any god damn thing in hellcore that isn't yikes zoobs i gotta selectively enforce those slurs!
Yeah, pretty much. They're apparently porting some content from the fork to the main one... eventually. They've been talking about homesteading for over a year.
I'm of the opinion that fags should be allowed to call themselves fags and people are being too soft about it. The selective enforcement is annoying either way, but I'd rather less enforcement than more, so I'll take the small victories.
@Alex@eemmaa they are all authoritarians. anarchism is a nonviable belief system. it is only viable as a declaration that you wish nobody rules above YOU.
I don't mean that they'll always become an authoritarian - I mean that you'll see if they truly are an anarchist, or if they'll abuse it. You'll see their true colors.
@eemmaa@Alex everything precious and weak is the benefactor of someone tough and violent, but confuses itself that delegating the duties makes it morally superior.
@icedquinn@Alex amish society is largely anarchist and functions, but they do have a larger state above them protecting them and a lack of modern distractions that might poison the mind.
@icedquinn@Alex do you respect the us army because you require its protection and live life according to its hard hierarchical mindset or do you just go ahead and live your life as you please?
also what is "giving an anarchist power" some guy that said he was an anarchist in college when he was 20 but has a computer science degree and works for a random company?
if we want to get into anarchist purity spirals i know very few actual anarchist, and many have slowly been forced onto the system with the cultures reliance on computers.
@eemmaa@Alex i think you're confusing beliefs about heirarchy with a statement that weak people can't just hire someone else to do their violence and claim they are superior because they aren't doing it themselves
@icedquinn@Alex but are you a fascist because you are protected by a fascist structure? Is every country fascist because militaries are fascist by default?
@eemmaa@Alex there have been systems and people that were more heart than knives and historical observation shows those people tend to get killed off by the people that are more knives than heart.
we just have to accept it for what it is, is my whole point there. its like being an author who needs readers to sell books to while hating people who buy books. its nonsense.
nature is a system where you are a killer, adopt one, or are killed, and a viable society *must* face this problem.
@k@icedquinn@Alex being told to go away is a social pressure either way i dont really care that much, simply pointing out what various anarchist groups that do exist, and it is largely agreed that the amish are "anarchist" and was in large part inspiration for ted k.
@eemmaa@icedquinn@Alex Nigger, yes they do have laws. If you don't integrate you will be exiled. Just because they don't implement cruel and unusual torture like the modern justice system doesn't mean they don't have laws.
@eemmaa@icedquinn@Alex Anarchy isn't even ontologically possible. Your attention focuses using an internal nervous/neurological hierarchy. The keyboards we are using to type are based on a hierarchy of how keys are used and with what frequency. The Pareto Principle is a thing that objectively exists.
It's baked into everything from government to physics.
@icedquinn@Alex ok, but my im not arguing for anarchism. I am just shitting on your stupid statement about "when an anarchist gets in power" ok "when a republican gets in power" its just really a meaningless series of words you wanted to dunk on some random twitter esque user. Anarchist politics really had nothing to do with just as your personal politics have little to do with day to day functioning as you pointed out in your post about calling the police.
@eemmaa@Alex that was alex but okay :blobcatgoogly:
my original statement that was a riff on is from the origins of LambdaMOO, i think the book is called 'a rape in cyberspace' or something, where some 1990s nerds were trying to figure out how to deal with social issues in the dawn of the internet (with self proclaimed anarchists being the loudest voices for being allowed to ban people even for acts not yet against the rules)
@icedquinn@Alex >with self proclaimed anarchists being the loudest voices for being allowed to ban people even for acts not yet against the rules) every right wing fedi instance and web site has shown in the end they do the same with any one far left that will continue to interact with them this is a general rule of people, you just pay attention to it from a singular perspective
@icedquinn@Alex they are the ones full of people that harrass random lgbt people then say they are being silo'd when it eventually gets blocked and claim their free speech is being stiffled
