Well it's better for some things just because it's smaller, frankly.

Sorry but

>Getting offended by Sam Spade

Offended, nah.  Spade is what he is, and I know better than to be "offended" by it.

I'm merely baffled and disappointed at all the knob-slobbering he gets, that's all.

From other men, no less!  I wonder if he realizes that. Cheesy

Really enjoying the current bitching about me on the "worst post on Atlas" thread. For the great offense of trying to have an intelligent discussion on gender, no less. Not really surprising though, coming from lowlifes like Bgwah and Sam Spade.

You hurted my feelings. Cry

In the spirit of Atlas Proper, perhaps I should report you to the mods!

It's kind of nonsense to have a GPG at all, so I guess the irony of it being named after Spade gives it some sort of purpose. Gosh, how I didn't miss him. Easily the worst part of this new place other than not having a dislike button anymore which I would be using frequently.

Lief made a good point, though.  Does that not limit discussion too much by discouraging people to explain why they disagree?  I mean, we'll probably put it back, but it should be blocked from use in Update.

That would be ideal, but with stupid posts like the stuff he's doing, there's no reason to discuss. Imagine if we discussed half the posts on here in the Absurdity/Ignorance Mine. That stuff doesn't warrant a response.

I've hitherto avoided developing an opinion of or making any comment on this project but I have to say that the knowledge that I'm being talked sh**t about behind my back does not incline me to think of it fondly.

The whole talking about someone as if behind their backs even though they might show up at any minute and read it aspect is depressing,  but otherwise its a pretty good place.

Agreed for the most part. Not that I'm not talking a lot of sh!t about people on Atlas, but nothing that I'm not openly saying here already of course. Tongue

Eh, the gossip and backstabbing around here has been going on for quite awhile, the new forum is just another outlet for it.

Which is exactly why I'm considering it FF, because it's moved most of that away from here.

You'll never get me there personally, I have no regrets for taking the minority answer of hell no when that poll was made.

But there's no denying that this place has become much more pleasant since.

It has some benefits, but overall it is mostly an outlet for things I never cared much for - looking at semi-nude pictures in a forum thread, listening to BRTD's trolling and being allowed to curse when writing politics post on an internet forum.

Ok, the cursing I enjoy a bit.

dont take it too personally some of it is just exaggerated for comedic effect. i can be a bitch like that. i have gotten annoyed at you being overly sensitive and falling into certain tumblr-esque social justice cliches. but you do occasionally post *something* interesting

It's funny you say that because Madeline did express disapproval of my music that has a lot of the extreme Tumblr-esque social justice cliches. https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=212668.0

Quoting posts from people who have been banned here is worth 10 death points, per Nym90.

I haven't noticed that, but if I did, I certainly would have stepped up to defend you. I'm sorry to hear that part. I mostly stick around in the Update section.
