I'd ban the perception of positivity as being naive/dumb (provided it isn't excessive)

Do you mean like a nuanced filter?note  because they have a switch.

no, just all or nothing. Hover over your avatar and you will see Display Mature Content click the switch next to it.

Umm, I meant, does it block sexual art too, not if they have a spesific switch for it.

Talking about celebrity deaths on forums. I'm sorry all love to their loved ones. But it bugs me so much that people just plop them in topics with no warning I don't even care If I never heard of them.

Don't do this

"Guy Mcduderson died."

Do this.

[up][up] Blocking mature content gets rid of most of the sexual art.

[up] yes. Especially when there's already a different thread all about celebrity deaths they could've posted in.
Maybe it's okay if the person was related to the topic at hand, but it's still annoying otherwise

[up][up] I don't get it. It's one thing to want people to take it to the proper forum thread, but why spoiler-tag facts about the real world?

Cause we don't want to give away the plot twists and spoil it for people who haven't read the book.

Saying things like "I'd rather read a Harlequin Romance novel than some heavy Russian classic, and I'm not ashamed to admit it!"

It's the kind of thing you say when you think you're anti-snobbery but you're actually anti-intellectualism.

People complaining about Dark Souls and that other game not having an easy difficulty.

I'm a really big of opponent of Easy-Mode Mockery but even I know that if the intention of the designer is to make a game that is hard as hell then you shouldn't ruin that.

I say just remove difficultly selections altogether, or at least remove Easy modes.

Be like Nocturne, with only two difficulties: "normal" (read "CBT Simulator: The JRPG") and "A difficulty suited for those who seek the thrill of death".

[up] That seems a little too restrictive, NGL.

Easy Modes allow people to better get into gaming, not everyone gets the controls and stuff good right off the bat

I would ban the entire debate over it and mean-spirited Easy-Mode Mockery forever

[up][up]Some people want to play games, but don't have the physical capacity for the inputs that would be needed on the higher difficulties, you know.

Well, turn based RPG's don't tend to have complicated button combos on par with something like, I dunno, Devil May Cry.

[up]Your initial post indicated nothing about being specific to turn-based games. And in those cases, there are still potential impediments an individual may have to playing them regardless, more likely regarding the mental aspect.

Here's a problem I doubt nobody but me cares about: Ion was just bought out by Scripps Media a couple months ago, and they announced the shutdown of its subchannels IonPlus, Ion Shop and Qubo for no reason other than to use the spaces for their other over-the-air networks. Unfortunately, these networks are already broadcasting on other channel spaces, resulting in me having two channels for CourtTV, Laff and Grit, and let me tell you, nobody needs two CourtTVs. To put it in simpler terms, this is the current layout:

  • Ch. 4.1: CBS
  • Ch. 4.2: CourtTV
  • Ch. 7.1: ABC
  • Ch. 7.2: Laff
  • Ch. 7.3: CourtTV Mystery
  • Ch. 7.4: Grit
  • Ch. 51.1: Ion
  • Ch. 51.2: Qubo
  • Ch. 51.3: IonPlus
  • Ch. 51.4: Ion Shop
  • Ch. 51.5: QVC
  • Ch. 51.6: HSN

And here's the post-Scripps layout:

  • Ch. 4.1: CBS
  • Ch. 4.2: CourtTV
  • Ch. 7.1: ABC
  • Ch. 7.2: Laff
  • Ch. 7.3: CourtTV Mystery
  • Ch. 7.4: Grit
  • Ch. 51.1: Ion
  • Ch. 51.2: CourtTV
  • Ch. 51.3: Grit
  • Ch. 51.4: Laff
  • Ch. 51.5: QVC
  • Ch. 51.6: HSN

See the problem here?
I'm especially pissed because Qubo was really the only good thing Ion had and there were already two other useless shopping channels they could've replaced (I think they're already on cable anyway). But they didn't even need to replace them because the Scripps channels are already on other channel spaces anyway.

So to make this post have something to do with this thread... ban whatever this is. Again, nobody needs two CourtTVs.
