Its cause that quote comes from ShadoWolfe, not Shadow_God_10

EDIT: i was being retarded and misremembered his name. You have hijacked his space in my mind i guess

Come back and play wolfe!

He's the originator of telling people (Read: Me) to "go drink some water ffs" which is code for go take a break youre being obstinate. Ive used it a fair bit since then

What makes this even funnier is that Greg called me Omar at Anime North last year

EDIT: How much is rent in your head?

Lol i tell people all the time in games to go drink some water when they getting too heated. (Shoutout to shadogod)

I agree that we are capable of self policing in games and it shouldnt have anything to do with alignment.

Ideally it should never get bad enough to require a mod to intervene but everyone has to be on the same page

If you don't mind me adding to this:

If a player feels genuinely uncomfortable they should be able to effectively communicate that they aren't comfortable with the way they're being grilled and can so and so back off, regardless if it's T/T W/W T/W W/T 3p/T 3p/W interactions.

Nowhere does it say that we are not allowed to call people out for anything that we feel is wrong.

Even if we see it, we should all have the awareness to say "Bro, you're grilling X too hard, take a 15 minute break and cool your jets"

I think now that I've said this, I believe ignorance to the aggression (MYSELF INCLUDED) that any player gets, is an addressable issue going forward in this discussion.

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)

To roundbox, i agree that going forward any infractions shouldnt be subject to community judgement and should be taken care of in private by mods.

Shadow got dragged into this because i brought up an example from my game. To which i aplogize because it was out of line to namedrop him when we are brainstorming broad solutions to a persistant issue. There is no behind the scenes chats going on (i dont think) so i dont think u have to worry about that.

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)

Here is my guide for not being a dingus

- dont insult people to discredit their points (bolth said it best, attack ideas not people)

- dont be a dick

- if someone asked u to stop doing a negative behavior towards them, respect their wishes

- at the end of the day your playing against another person, treat them like one

I think everyone here is capable of following these points and playing in the same general style they usually play in

I think trying to enforce some kind of hard rule is a mistake.

You can't hear me, but I'm screaming in happiness.

Enforcing a hard rule such as possibly: No Profanity will filter some content that players are trying to produce which can limit us in our ability to communicate with each other

Just appoint another mod or 2 and hold people accountable in postgame if they have a meltdown.

Im sure people are smart enough to realize when theyre going too far. And if they dont it will quickly become apparent

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)

ok one more thing: y'all the whole not listening/acknowledging newbie reads stuff like actually stunted my twg game. i took a break for a bit and played on other sites and i found that when i was assertive with my reads i was much better than i thought i was.
that really broke my heart when i figured that out
so anyways i hate that some players (like ya girl) are routinely ignored. y'all can ignore me though 'cause like i'll just win as a wolf again but don't do it to other people. thanks

WOW, It's almost as if I said the same damn thing and no one heard me

My point for that recap of TWG hell is sometimes it's frustrating to play in a community as a brand new player, because I felt like my voice wasn't really being heard, which can be very disengaging for a player when they're playing a game for around a month.

Amazing

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)

i'll post more tomorrow morning
2 mods came from yoshl being fairly inactive and manti being extremely inactive (both of them responded very quickly when I have needed them over the years, don't get me wrong) and I think having two mods here would be alright

5 was the number of the council (which I hate as a term) back in the day so I don't think 5 is too big of a number
