Oi oi matey, u got a loicence for that telly streamin’ service?

You’re reading the post backwards.

Well behaved? Idk, his behaviour seems pretty awful to me.

The Steam release of the original Crysis comes with DRM that prevents it from launching after five (5) installs. Ask me how I know 🙃

If you don’t wanna play the remaster, just get the GOG version.

Did you know?

Phones can have a headphone jack and still have Bluetooth for the people who don’t want to use it!

How much sandpaper did you get through to make your brain this smooth? The gap between the values of fascism and human decency isn’t “minor,” it’s fucking monumental. If your values are only a minor step away from those of fascists, that’s a you problem.

Why drag it out? The brother is clearly a lost cause, OP should just burn that bridge already instead of suffering longer than is necessary.

Your brother isn’t just passively going along with it because “muh eggs expensive,” he’s drank the kool-aid and he’s a lost cause. Don’t listen to these fucking concavebrains telling you to pal around with enthusiastic supporters of nazis, especially when it comes at the expense of your health.

This is true. I am prone to the occasional understatement.

It’s what Apple uses the super key for. Most keyboards have it.

According to the mod team, this post is from all of them. Nevertheless, Rmbp is in this reply section disputing this, saying that he didn’t write a word of it.

Dunno about you, but it looks to me like a small number of mods have a habit of calling all the shots and then sharing the blame when it backfires.

Really? All of them? Personally, I’d be happy enough taking no more than two heads for this. Whatever the case, I think the main priority should be adding new mods whose attitudes are more in line with the comm.

Anyway, I’m sure there’s stuff that’s happened in private that I’m unaware of, but it seems like qaz has been pretty level-headed about the whole thing, Rmbp, despite approving of the move and thus being generally out of touch with the community claims (believably, IMO) to have had no knowledge of, let alone input over the process prior to the call being made, greembow hasn’t posted anything in a year, and Peachy has wisely kept pretty quiet about it, with a grand total of two (one if we’re not counting duplicates) pretty neutral comments in threads about the mod team’s decision.

Yes, all this and the fact that the move was months in the making but had almost zero* communication with the broader community really just paints a picture of a thoroughly dysfunctional mod team acting in a bubble, but from what little I understand I’d argue this particular fiasco was done mostly on the initiative of the “head honcho of 196” and A_Very_Big_Fan, who made the announcements and were the ones to double down on it in the face of community pushback.

* a month or so ago when PJ really got his knickers in a twist about not being allowed to misgender neopronoun users by LBZ’s site rules one of the mods mentioned they were considering a move to dotworld and got pushback then too

I think people’s interactions with you were coloured by the fact that you were one of about three people who were vocally supportive of the mod team’s move. That you’re (unknowingly at the time) a member of it probably didn’t help, but was likely secondary.

Also appointing a few moderators who are actually on LBZ and active in the community could be helpful.

thanks for that. i guess now it’s time to figure out what happens next

Yeah this just about sums up my view of the situation.

Strong agree. Can’t speak for anyone else, but here’s me a few months ago thanking Ada specifically for this reason.
