As others have said to STEROLIZER, the mass shooting plot came from Random Insanity, not CE. I know STERO has a hate-boner for this board, but he shouldn't spread fake news to push his narrative.

Chances are, it won't be legal to post porn anywhere in five years, given what's going on with KOSA now.

I dont understand the issue with "hornyposting". What even counts as that?
Porn has always been banned, which is fair enough. Does waifu fan art count as horny posting? What if I posted official art of certain fire emblem or final fantasy characters?
They closed all the threads for boobs, asses, and even feet, and also closed an anime girl picture topic, and one other topic.

How not to post things hateful of other people? How to have a civil discussion without resorting to insults? The vast majority of people whining about mods or the rules are incapable of doing these very simple things.
Yep. That's why the subreddits exit. They're made by perpetually-banned users to whine about the mods, without ever realizing that they're the problem.

Cliffnotes:

-CE is now private. All accounts active within the last year will have access to CE, but no accounts created after today will ever have access to CE.
-If an account goes into Purgatory, it permanently loses access to CE.
-Politics-related topics are banned sitewide except on CE.
-"Hornyposting" is seemingly also no longer allowed. Several such topics have been locked by the mods.

TopicStudios that try to force an originally 4:3 show to be 16:9 widescreen.
Solar_Crimson
04/15/24 11:04:50 AM

Examples: The Simpsons when it aired its marathon on FXX; this version of the Dragon Ball Z dub that I'm watching; Malcolm in the Middle; Seinfeld.

Because usually, they do this by cropping out the top and bottom of the screen, causing certain details to be removed, even if it's part of the punchline or joke. With the Simpsons, the outcry was enough that, Disney+--which originally only had the 16:9 versions as an option--finally relented and allowed viewers to switch back to the original 4:3 aspect ratio. But I read that there are several other old shows on Disney+ that are forced into 16:9 with no option to switch back to 4:3, because they didn't get anywhere near the outcry that the Simpsons did.

Malcolm in the Middle is an interesting case, as it was originally filmed during production as 16:9 but with the intent of being edited and cropped for the then-standard 4:3 TVs. However, newer versions of the show available on streaming platforms use the 16:9 footage, resulting in oddities originally off-screen and meant to be cropped out now in full view.

Still, are people really that bothered if an old show doesn't fill the complete full screen of their widescreen TV? Why do production companies keep doing this?

Your work is in a weekly Shonen-type magazine.

The main character has been around for years, but your plan was always to eventually kill them off and let their progeny carry the torch as the story continued from there. Once you reached the point where you feel that you've taken the MC as far as you could, you go through with your plan, to the shock of your readers and editor.

However, the MC was very popular, and months later, your manga is now suffering a gradual decline in popularity. Your editor is practically begging you to find some way to bring the original MC back; as of now, your work does not include a mechanism to revive the dead.

Would you acquiesce with your editor's--and the fans'--wishes and find some way to bring back the original main character? Or would you continue on with your original plan for the story, despite your work's longevity being a sinking ship?

I love Deino, but due to how they scaled evolution levels according to when the Pokemon is first encountered in the wild, yeah it does take a long time for it to evolve to its final stage.

As for Grass, yeah, the remaining non-Legendary Grass types beyond Deerling (Foongus/Amoonguss, and Ferroseed/Ferrothorn) really aren't that impressive, for ingame at least. I would personally recommend Lilligant (you can get Petilil in an ingame trade in an early city by trading Cottonee), but the problem is that Lilligant's only good offensive options are Grass-type moves.

I don't remember where I heard this so it may not even be true

But I have heard most female serial killers tend to be the angel of death subcategory
They take on positions like nanny or nurse where they will be in charge of vulnerable people and then kill making it look like natural causes often racking up much larger body counts before being caught than other serial killers
This. I remember looking at a list of the most notorious female serial killers, and it was dominated by women in nursing positions, with their victims being old people or children.

I read stories (albeit, on Reddit) of kids who try to blow out other kids' candles, and then throw a tantrum when they end up being denied. I recall one story where one guy's parents would let his spoiled, autistic younger brother blow out his candles, and then light them again so the OP could blow them out, because otherwise if the brother didn't, he'd throw a tantrum and toss the cake to the floor.
