What would you ban if you could?

I would personally ban people using understandable criticism to get into someones pants.

No, *insert obnoxious person's name*. I will not allow it's usage just so you can get into their pants.

Me nether but I needed to get it out just in case.

Cosmic human watches over a certain Meme universe.

I'm not sure what you're talking about here.

By the way, shouldn't this very thread be banned along with those threads which were banned recently? It's all about complaining about things. But before it got banned:

Tablets with preinstalled malware. And this ban is something actually theoretically possible.

Rule 34 based on real world persons.

Botox - and synthol, from other side. Who even invented this creepy shit?

Ban Russian government organs from banning things.

We haven't gotten into a flame war yet and hopefully we won't any time soon. Please don't tempt fate like that.

"Hope for our world, tragedy for another."

The notion that Men Can't Keep House.

"Hope for our world, tragedy for another."

I’m right behind you on that one.

Pinkie Pie and flugelhorns are a bad combination.

I would ban the new Reese's commercials. The way they glorify the candy in question has become at best off-putting and at worst creepy. Hey, I like Reese's too, but come on; they're not the Body and Blood of Jesus. x_x >.>

Pinkie Pie and flugelhorns are a bad combination.

Keeping fish as pets in Norway.

I live in Norway and it is legal. But you have really good point with the not-backwards compatible thing.

I'd ban the general disdain for video game preservation by big companies like Sony. I mean I in particular didn't really care for any of the digital releases on the PS3, PSP or Vita stores but I can see why people are upset and I think it's stupid. And also like??? You could have prevented this by, I dunno, making the PS4 backwards compatible with PS3 games in the first place??? /rant

You don't know that. Maybe they are.

The reason the PS 4 isn't backwards compatible is because it runs completely differently from the PS 3. To make it backwards compatible you'd have to seriously modify the disk drive and, well, everything else probably. And then it would be likely that you wouldn't be able to play PS 4 games on the thing anymore and its basically a weird looking PS 3 now.

I made a typo and left off an arrow, I was actually talking to the person above you. I totally believe you with the legal fish thing.

"Hope for our world, tragedy for another."

The interruption, suspension or rescheduling of regular TV programming with any news or sporting event, except in an emergency situation. It really is not necessary in this day and age of 24 hour rolling news and sports channels.

Would it be impossible even with emulation?

Why would sports networks even have that capacity? I can understand why news networks might need it for emergencies, even if the trade-off is the potential for abuse, but sports?

Often, a game goes on longer than planned, and they need to keep broadcasting or the viewers will miss the ending.

I definitely agree with that one. Especially since, for some reason, all the breaking news stories come on whenever Jeopardy! is supposed to be on. What, does all the news in the world only happen at 3:30 in the afternoon? :S

Pinkie Pie and flugelhorns are a bad combination.

Mostly aimed at traditional broadcasters (i.e. The BBC, Creator/ITV etc.) over here rather than dedicated channels. Sometimes they show live sport and it still overruns. As for news I think I'd best not go into that!

Pants.

"Hope for our world, tragedy for another."

People adopting pets only to send them back when something else they want to do comes along.

Just had to get that off my chest; I just saw a local news story about pets being returned to adoption centers at record levels by people who adopted for the pandemic returning them now that all the restrictions are loosening or ending.

Ads for adblockers. Ads that cover content. Ads with close buttons so small you’re practically guaranteed to misclick the ad itself. Political ads on Cool Math. Ads pretending not to be ads. Ads that come back after you tell Google not to show it any more. Ads that show up again and again and again.....

Ads that fit multiple of these!

Ads in general, but mostly these.

Comments on reviews here after a certain amount of time. Like wtf is the point, why is this review from months if not years ago so important to you.

Self-serious autistic metalhead who goes by any pronouns. (avvie template source)

I'd ban those vile skin bags of bile and feces that observed the cops stopping a suicide attempt in Gothenburg a day or two ago and decided to stop and film it all.

The Gothenburg cops chewed them out on facebook, but I'd damn-near say that I think an act like that should be against the law. You have to be a special kind of morally bankrupt to do something like that. I bet you anything those bastards planned on selling the footage to some newspaper and make money off it.

Tasteless as their behavior was, let's not hold them responsible for things there's no clear sign they were even planning.

Paralogues that are so bad you're still complaining about them after finishing. What an absolute slog. Here's hoping Forgotten Hero (Marianne's paralogue) isn't anywhere near as tedious and frustrating...

Another thing I'd, while not ban per se, but at least put some kind of statute of limitations or some equivalent if that's a bit too harsh or I'm using the wrong word, is TV shows making episodes about some kind of current ongoing event.

My Mom loves to binge (Read: Keep them on as background noise while she's working, occasionally shooting a glance at the screen) series on streaming services, some of those happening to be hospital shows, and I found myself a tad annoyed at some of them already having made a goddamn COVID episode. At least wait until the pandemic is over, you vultures!

Hope you have your best defensive units ready. It's a fog level.
