Closeso much is so bad, and it's all so fucking exhausting.
e: this isn't a 'stop talking about depressing things' or anything like that. sort of the opposite, actually: I wish this was a place you could.
but nah, here's members of multiple hate groups to make that impossible.

If you really think so, mawk, why don't you try to help matters by being undogmatic and reminding everyone of their common goals and interests, instead of making statuses like these?
It's counterproductive.

yes, why don't I do something impossible instead of naming the problem? you've enlightened me.
Yeah, I get you. I've made it a rule to stay out of quite a lot of parts here.
I know there may be ways to slightly nudge it into a better direction, but that is quite a lot of effort and will simply be ignored 95% of the time.
No reason to exhaust oneself.

I've gotten where I stay out of threads that are drama bombs (which, sadly, generally means anything that's not about pure GAM MAK or site events). It's not good for me emotionally to try to argue with people all the time when I could be putting that energy into making games.

I don't think anyone here disallows controversial topics on the board, so much as those kinds of topics tend to draw in the ignoramuses who resort to personally attacking someone based on their disagreements and eventually starting a massive banter-fest. If that part was left out, then any of the recent political threads would be okay, but that isn't the case here, and as a result we sometimes get the privilege to have a debate revoked.

oh, no, I'm absolutely not complaining that they're disallowed or anything. if anything, I feel the staff have been too inactive in curating those kinds of discussions. when a topic about a social issue that most affected women or black people was derailed by a couple of loudmouths upset that it didn't spend enough time talking about white guys for the third or so time in a row, I started wondering what kind of value there was in holding those kinds of discussions here -- there are a lot of people who just aren't worth the time to talk to, and I'm not the kind of person anymore who does it anyway for fun. this place is still pretty okay when you come to the side of the community focused on active development, but the other side is unfortunate.
and while I'm on that subject, I guess I've let the other topic cook long enough. I'm gonna go against my gut instinct and read it.
e: ... that was actually really pleasant! you guys are okay.
