Topic | why do some nerds drive manual? |
The23rdMagus 01/16/18 1:33:54 AM #2 | Skill gap, I guess. Better theoretical performance/efficiency with better skill. Not worth the effort to me. There's enough to focus on without having to worry about shifting. --- ~Drewnami: The Drew abides.~ Gonads are useful for their purpose, but they are no substitute for brains. -Paul Harvey |

Topic | How strict is the "no name calling" rule? |
The23rdMagus 01/16/18 12:53:07 AM #30 | LanHikari10 posted... Yes, if ANY form of name calling is marked, it will now be moderated for flaming. No matter how tame or harsh you consider the name. Allen has opted for an all rule for flaming. I eagerly await the results. Hopefully this experiment works. --- ~Drewnami: The Drew abides.~ Gonads are useful for their purpose, but they are no substitute for brains. -Paul Harvey |

Topic | Being loyal to your neighborhood means no snitching to the police |
The23rdMagus 01/16/18 12:47:34 AM #10 | Offworlder1 posted... Stealing other peoples things, breaking and entering, rape, and murder are crimes you report, fuck the neighborhood loyalty. Being loyal to your neighborhood means you look out for its safety and you do report things. --- ~Drewnami: The Drew abides.~ Gonads are useful for their purpose, but they are no substitute for brains. -Paul Harvey |
Topic | How strict is the "no name calling" rule? |
The23rdMagus 01/16/18 12:46:34 AM #21 | People have used the same justification to call people stupid. It doesn't fly either. --- ~Drewnami: The Drew abides.~ Gonads are useful for their purpose, but they are no substitute for brains. -Paul Harvey |
Topic | lmao i got one of those NWD moderations for a post 2 days before the rule change |
The23rdMagus 01/16/18 12:45:48 AM #15 | It's only punitive if you continue to do it, from my understanding. So you're only in trouble if you ignore what they have to say. --- ~Drewnami: The Drew abides.~ Gonads are useful for their purpose, but they are no substitute for brains. -Paul Harvey |

Topic | Honestly, I'm Liking The New Addition To The Moderation System[Pic] |
The23rdMagus 01/13/18 1:52:45 PM #95 | nicklebro posted... Its as if they took the biggest issue that people were complaining about the most and did their best to make it even worse. This whole thing is nonsense and TC's ppost is a great example of how shitty this place is becoming. NannyFAQs, SafeSpaceFAQs, there's a reason these new insults popped up. The biggest issue with the site is the toxicity of the userbase. The moderation system is a byproduct of that. Ideally, the moderation changes will discourage toxic behavior, either by providing incentive for those elements to stop their behavior, or encourage them to leave. --- ~Drewnami: The Drew abides.~ Gonads are useful for their purpose, but they are no substitute for brains. -Paul Harvey |

Topic | Is "that is not my job" a hostile statement to use at your job? |
The23rdMagus 01/12/18 12:52:45 AM #14 | I'm grateful that in my line of work "that's not my job" doesn't put me on a shit list - because if I say that, it's because it is quite literally someone else's job. I could do it, but I'm sure as hell not trained for it, and someone else who is is going to be better at it. I'm more than happy to have a look and then find someone whose job it is, so I can go back to my job. That said, "that's not in my skill set" is my phrasing. --- ~Drewnami: The Drew abides.~ Gonads are useful for their purpose, but they are no substitute for brains. -Paul Harvey |

Topic | What pill brand do you take when you get a fever or cold? |
The23rdMagus 01/11/18 1:44:53 AM #2 | Benzedrex and Theraflu - not pills, but effective. Or when I can be bothered going out when the pharmacy counter is open, actual Sudafed and some Tylenol Cold/Flu (with DXM and guaifenesin). --- ~Drewnami: The Drew abides.~ Gonads are useful for their purpose, but they are no substitute for brains. -Paul Harvey |

The23rdMagus 01/11/18 1:42:34 AM #8 | smoliske posted... drinking alone is not something one should be doing It's meditative. I appreciate it. No judgement, no expectations.

Topic | Would you be embarrassed to have a fat GF? |
The23rdMagus 01/05/18 2:12:07 PM #68 | Yeah, I'm not making excuses. Just talking about things that I enjoy. Right now it's a relationship of mutual comfort. We can go out and enjoy things that are clearly bad for us without judging each other. There's just not a concern if one or the other gains a few pounds. There's no threshold of insta-shun, "get off me, you're hideous". Sure, we work it off later - her more easily than I - but there's just fewer worries. And a whole lot more comfortable. The confidence is refreshing and inspiring. --- ~Drewnami: The Drew abides.~ Gonads are useful for their purpose, but they are no substitute for brains. -Paul Harvey |
