Yeah, it’s been on the decline since the mass bannings a few years ago. I miss the old community (although people started becoming nasty to each other towards the end, which is a big part of what occasioned the bannings).
Saying you appreciate Stalin is like saying you appreciate Hitler…
That’s understandable. I’ve given that up too, because I’m celibate, and it’s not always easy. Because I’ve given up marriage to serve my Church, though, I have the benefit of a loving community and some good, celibate friends, which helps to fill that space.
I was envisioning a scenario in which people who were actually banned were, instead of being unable to post at all, enabled to post in a specific thread and sort of “earn their way out” rather than being unable to participate in the forum altogether. In other words, a mod-enforced jail thread as an alternative to outright banning. Everyone would be free to visit, but temp-banned users wouldn’t be able to post outside the thread.
It was just a hypothetical, to be clear, not a suggestion for what we should do with this thread.
I feel for all three of you. Spuffure, I’m glad you’re still doing treatment. I know some of this is beyond your control and I hope my comments don’t come off as overly critical, because that’s not my intent.
I’ve also never had sex and have voluntarily chosen to give that up, but it’s a lot more difficult to have that denied you against your will. But I can speak from experience in saying that there is a lot of joy to be found in life apart from sexual pleasure.
Things are getting too lax in this thread!!1! Sentences should be longer to keep the rest of the forum safe and to keep the rest of us safe from shitposting!!1!!1
On a different note, I think it would have been really fun if instead of temporary bans, users who were misbehaving were actually restricted to posting in a jail thread until they’d served their time (with good behaviour, of course).
Dude, you’re way too young to start considering yourself an incel. You have plenty of time to shape yourself into the kind of person that is attractive to people, so focus on doing that instead of being miserable (you’re allowed to be miserable, but don’t let that determine your life, because then it will just perpetuate itself).
Elon Musk introduced rate limits on Twitter.
Him or his new CEO? Either way, sounds dumb.
Haha, oops!
Syntactically and grammatically, it’s pretty easy to learn, though, at least for Europeans. We don’t really have conjugations or declensions to speak of, for instance, so it’s a pretty simply language apart from the irregular spelling.
Glad you gave it a chance!
Man, we first-pagers were so much more dedicated than these new inmates. Prisoners these days…
It’s just a game. We used to do all kinds of silly stuff in Off Topic just for fun. You can do whatever you want with it.
Very cool, thanks for sharing!
I was in the hospital so I had to duck out of the Internet for a while, jail is tough guys
Glad you’re no longer in the hospital. Welcome back to jail!
Even visiting hours are boring here now. It seems that most prisoners are either sleeping, or have been evading their arrests…
I know the feeling. It takes a lot of work (and immersion in the language) to get to the point where expressing complex ideas fluently is possible. But it’s doable…I know people who learned other languages as adults who can speak them fluently and intelligently.
An easy way to count is to click on your profile name and count all the posts you have made in this thread.
Yeah, how come this thread died all of a sudden? Laaame…
My replacement is… StarkillerAG.
Freeedoooom!!!
Well, after I get off the ground, I call over the prison guard and ask to be moved to a different cell, because I want to make sure I get released in my next post.
HAAAL[P]!
JEDIT: Oh, and I put my fists up to ward off any further blows.
Are you gonna eat that sir?
Darn right I will. Watcha gonna do about it?
Well goldurnit!
I’m halfway there. Can I apply for parole?
It was worth a shot…
Here’s a very unsatisfying GIF in response:
