Hey all,

We've noticed a bit of a trend in a specific kind of low-quality posting recently. While we're not instituting any purges or planning sweeping censorship programs, which sucks because I already bought the dogs and black uniforms, I've conferred with the other mods and we think it's a good idea to clarify a matter of forum conduct. Our culture here is a rare and precious thing: we've managed to avoid becoming CoG-lite, but it's equally important that this place doesn't become an interactive fiction themed /pol/. 

What we're really discouraging is outright racial animus on the site. Don't say your favourite word that ends with a hard R, don't sincerely call for the extermination of whole groups. No one's going to be policing your obvious jokes, but we're also going to do the necessary pruning to avoid looking like a Nazi hangout.

Cheers,

Malk

Hmm I wonder what user could have possibly inspired this.

But yes, wholeheartedly agree. If I sincerely wake up and pray every morning that God sees fit to remove the entire wretched population of a certain Eastern European country, that's a personal thing and has no place on a forum for writing discussion.

I don't like Poland either, but I'm told he's posted lots of reviews in the past year. 

Hitler's paintings are actually pretty amateur and full of mistakes.

Maybe he should have kept applying to art schools.

The lore is that his failures as an artist, along with a smol "paintbrush," are what instilled the vitriol which led to his cringe lord ranting and eventual incel attempt to exterminate Jews, Romani and others.

It would be hella weird to be classed as that when a great many of the members are politically centrist, liberal or progressive. 90% of that shit is irony and mockery of PC culture.

Who else are we talking about, cause I'm not sharing my token Nazi spot with anyone.

"If I sincerely wake up and pray every morning that God sees fit to remove the entire wretched population of a certain Eastern European country, that's a personal thing and has no place on a forum for writing discussion."

Who'd you piss off now, Cel?

After another blunder, declares our moderator, our sector bars uncalled-for chatter!

Final version: After another blunder, declares our moderator, our sector bars uncalled‑for slander. However, humor or chatter are honored decor.

(Removing italics and pushing down unnecessary stuff)

I'm going to refine this some more, hold on.

First revision: After another blunder, declares our moderator, our sector bars uncalled-for slander!

Second revision: After another blunder, declares our moderator, our sector bars uncalled‑for slander. However, humor and chatter are honored decor.

Third revision: After another blunder, declares our moderator, our sector bars uncalled‑for slander. However, humor or chatter are honored decor.

Yep, that seems good. I'm done here now.

Also going forward let's try not to post anything that would get you arrested if you said it IRL lol

Not all of us live in gestapo land (uk, australia, and other such shitty countries). We have actual free speech (against everything except our own dictator lol).

"We've managed to avoid becoming CoG-lite."

As long as the three letter word that the British use to refer to cigarettes is still permissible, I suppose.

Do you really view that as the only difference? That's a little insulting smh. Like "damn I'd happily be sucking Jason's dick all the time, too bad about my crippling lack of internal filter that makes it literally impossible to not use slurs, only CYS will accept me."

"Can't get customer service jobs either. " :(

Funny lol. I've had plenty of customer service jobs. I just don't like them. I did recently bite the bullet and start work at Dollar General, however.
