Google it.

May or may not be 100% applicable here; I dunno, I still haven't technically gotten up yet.

Oh my God Adric I know the fucking comic

The mods reference it all the time in the EBS thread

I'm just saying I don't quite see how it applies here

I mean I don't actively believe it doesn't apply, I'm not being sarcastic or passive-aggressive, I'm just saying, in full Sincerity Mode, that I don't quite get the connection

The general idea of the comic is "Free speech laws don't protect you from censorship on a privately-owned platform or repercussions from the general public on publicly-expressed speech"

So like

I dunno I just don't see quite how he's applying it

Point being, complainers gonna complain; that's why we have rules in the first place.

You want a thread that's solely for unfiltered pointless roleplay nonsense, just find one or make one.

You want a thread that has strict rules about not having complaints, enjoy your headache. I dunno how many trolls there are around here, but that seems like a good way to find them.

You mean this thread here where we've engaged in some stuff like that and barely anybody has complained about it and yet is somehow a big deal regardless? How come nobody had any issues with the one going on last night? Or the one the other day where Bruh was suing Solip? Hell, I didn't even start the last one and yet I'm constantly blamed for everything here.

I'm not trying to start a fight

But like... I don't "want a thread that's solely for unfiltered pointless roleplay nonsense".

I want a thread where "unfiltered pointless roleplay nonsense" can come up without it being a big deal

Why does everything have to be compartmentalized and categorized? I get why some threads need to be on-topic or particularly formatted or somesuch, otherwise there'd be no OTC and no Troper Covens and so on. But why does all the roleplaying have to be quarantined in the roleplaying forum? Why does shitposting have to be quarantined in the Trash Heap? Why can't there just be a thread where the people who want to hang out in that thread hang out and do as they please?

Like 99% of the time that's what we do in here anyway

...Although, "complainers gonna complain" and the XKCD comic reference is actually a really good argument for the Trash Heap being exactly that.

People can complain in the Trash Heap.

They can also be completely ignored

Which I think is my policy from now on

As long as someone isn't complaining about a violation of forum policy (harassment, illegal or offensive content, etc. etc.), I think I'm just going to start ignoring them in this thread.

*checks last page*

I thought I wasn't the one to start talking about roleplaying threads this time, but I had to check.

And I'm fairly certain it's just Adric who gets me complaining about it. :| By now, y'all kinda know why, and in any case I'm not feeling really invested in pursuing that yet again at the moment.

And yet I didn't start that damn roleplay from the other day with Solip crashing a plane into Bruh's house and getting sued for it. Even Ultimatum took part in that.

Maybe.
