Multiple requests to delete the thread.

It's crappy to the site's image / for new members to see a lot of long-term members who should know better seem to have got into the sort of stupid debate you wouldn't expect rational people were really capable of having.

Debates aren't really debates anymore once people started to insult each other.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

I agree. I miss the old days even if I didn't get to see much of it.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

It seems that even the smallest things on this site are polarizing, nowadays. I mean, look at this shit. The majority of the comment section is an argument between two members.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Oh, I saw that. It's games like that that poison the site.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

I was referring to the comments, more than the game itself.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Haha. Always Malky starting shit for no reasons.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

I'm probably the only one who kinda respects Malk for saying what he thinks without any niceties. He calls it out for what it is.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Malk really had very little to do with the thread's deletion. His OP made a strong social point.

Talking about comments on a game, not the "rape" thread.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

But you can agree with me people need to put more thought into games, right?

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

And you. Maybe you should stop insulting other people if you don't want to be insulted.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Of course, but we've always had poor games. I'm just glad we have a reasonably effective system for culling them.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

I'm still waiting for your game ;)

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

We had great games up until RPs got popular.

Then everything went to hell.

And then came the devil, Him, The Jar Lord.

So, am I to take it that you are of the school of thought that supports removing forum games from CYS entirely?

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

What!? I like forum games, and not much losers play them. A lot of "cool" members play them, such as Zag, Seth, and Wiggle. When have they ever harmed you?

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

James didn't say that he didn't want forum games, he simply asked Killa if he's the one wanted to erase forum games from the site.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

I wasn't talking to James. Rather, Killa. And yes, I'm on threaded view.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Ah, that explains it... sorry for that.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

It's okay buddy :)

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Zag and Wiggle are annoying, and when's the last time Seth set foot in Forum Games?

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

How are they annoying?

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

He was active in all 6 puzzles and riddles threads until the contest took out most of the other participants.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

9 years ago

Heh, I agree. I am annoying.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

How are you annoying?

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

9 years ago

Maybe not here, but I can see why I'm annoying in real life. I like to make a variety of "funny" vocals and faces. Also, I try to be humorous most of the time. I guess the internet filters out peoples personalities. *shrug*

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

You sound nice enough for me.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Thanks.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Nope, you're pretty annoying, you're just not old enough to be self aware.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Fuck, man, that's a low blow.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Forum games are not exclusive to RPs.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

9 years ago

They always do, but at least today's trash is better than the trash of yore.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

9 years ago

Yeah, today's trash actually has a somewhat funny tension. It's still bad though.

I must WALK! Fuck, that was funny.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Look at us, getting all productive and constructive ;)

I'm happy it's not a fight, lol. To be honest I thought I would be the first to start it.

(wasn't a part of the thread, but still putting this here anyway)

"I love argument, I love debate. I don't expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me, that's not their job." ~Margaret Thatcher

I love debate because it shows every angel of an aspect. I show the way I see it, someone finds a problem, and I try to figure out how to either fix the problem or show how it isn't a problem in the first place. Or vice versa. It's also quite satisfying to be able to make an argument that no one can poke any holes in.

 It's supposed to be a learning experience, not a 'I'm better then you because you can't think right' or something. If everyone got that, then maybe you wouldn't have to delete almost every single debate that comes up.

On the flip end, if everyone understood the simple concept of don't post asinine garbage like victim blaming, hate mongering, etc., there'd be less issues too.

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Come on guys... Really?

And Once Again We Fail At Civil Debate

Yes, really!
