"...people like more challenging things."
So, shitposting became 'challenging'? Where was I when that was declared? And you are just saying that the staff should just stop doing their job because people like it?
What? They are upset (well mostly Grumpy) because they have to deal with you and I and anyone else on here daily. And the bullshit it comes with.
I feel generally bad for the staff because they have to deal with us daily. That's also why I will never become a staff here. I would just ban people left and right like mad.
You should be grateful that they are even here, keeping this site safe from spam bots and updating it for us. They don't have to, they could just leave shop and let this site die.
But they don't, because they love this site and put time into it. And they love to roleplay, just like us!
EDIT: This is the last time I am going to talk about it. It's pointless to keep dragging a death horse, but I had to just say it.
...what are you talking about? What do you consider shitposting because I am confused as fuck by your post. Literally.
And please, please don't tell me how I should feel towards staff considering you don't know me well enough to be so...judgy. I'm more aware than most people how thankless and difficult being a mod or administrator is (18+ years experience. ...do I like lvl up at this point or..?). It is not meant to be fun 24/7 however, staff does not need anyone to sit around and defend them. They can do it for themselves or better yet, just not say anything because honestly, ain't no one in this topic disrespecting them or harassing them in a demeaning way. WE ARE ALLOWED TO DISAGREE WITH STAFF AS LONG AS WE'RE NOT BEING DISRESPECTFUL. NO ONE SHOULD BE KISSING STAFF ASS. THAT'S GROSS. THEY DON'T WASH OFTEN IF AT ALL.
To be frank, and I am saying this because your post kind of comes off a little rudish and maybe you are unaware of how you come off (like, you're really aggressive in how you talk to people and it is because of how personal you take things we can't actually have political or scientific topics, etc (not putting it on you, just saying ppl who get riled up easily like this is Facebook or something)) and it is a bit ehhhhhhhh at this point. However, this is text so it is hard to know if you are actually taking things a little to personal, ya know?
Like shitposting to me is posting a bunch of meaningless pictures that ain't got shit time do with the topic or just doing it to waste time example, what we're doing in this thread which is like my first or second time? So I'm unsure what you would consider shitposting, if that makes sense? And being as I was literally told to stop posting "smart" topics because people can't handle it and staff are getting rage face about it, it is just...smh. I don't agree with it and I am going to say it because I can. I'm not gonna be all YOU'RE AN ASSHOLE FOR NOT LETTING ME TALK ABOUT STEM CELLS AND ABORTION because...that is unnecessary but I will say it's not fair to those of us who are interested in more than what you travel in or these I am bored topics that seem to have become a trend. I look at most of these topics as something to feel up space or not very interesting.
And rather than making a topic like this, to target a member you don't seem to care for...you should either put them on ignore or talk to them privately about what is bothering you. Topics that "call out/attack" a member is doing the complete opposite of respecting staff and it doesn't come off as you feeling sorry for them when you're giving them more work by making such a topic. I'M JUST SAYING, THIS THREAD DEBUNKS YOUR POST lolol. ;____; don't know if you realized that.
BUT IT'S COOL, BRO. WE ALL GOTTA FIND OUR WAY SOMEHOW! NO HARM, NO FOUL (not being sarcastic, just to clarify. O.o).
And to clarify, it is coming off that spamming and posting pictures is far more acceptable than having actual discussions about things in the non-rp board. I think that's where you got confused by my post?
