So when YOU have an opinion, it's "just good sense".

But when I have an opinion, it's "ego".

Hmmm.

Strawman: The Post.

 

I expressed my utter disdain for Reddit. This thread is about Reddit. It's bad enough that people here and the devs expect people to be in Discord if they want to be "the most up-to-date." Every community I've seen that starts trying to drum up more users to "check out Reddit" eventually transitions into news/updates being nearly exclusively uploaded to Reddit and nowhere else.

 

My post was about how I hate Reddit, which is directly related to my above point.

 

What was yours about, besides being belligerent for belligerent's sake? You've had that account for 4 years but your only 2 posts in all that time are in this thread, one in response to my own? I don't know if I should feel honored that my words moved you to action after such a long time, but I have a sneaking suspicion that this account is merely the alternate of someone else here that doesn't want their shit-flinging to be associated with their primary account.

 

But please, do go on.

Thank you for essentially reinforcing my point about Reddit and its denizens being ass cancer.

Hey now....boomer? I think we can do better than that:

 

That's what's going on here. 

[Frostbiter]

Everything I like is good, everything I don't like is bad and if anyone else has anything to say I will post memes! You've all been warned!

I'm seriously at a loss here. This isn't about whether Reddit is good or bad. It's just some people offering an invitation to join a channel there. 

Now if people lack the basic tact to be supportive of other players and are going to suck the air out of the room by venting their grievances with the platform--might as well have a laugh. Especially when the memes are on point. If you don't want to be called a boomer, stop acting boomerish.

After getting caught up on this thread here, I agree with your sentiment completely. A player posted a place for folks on HC to talk about HC and this thread devolved, as most things on this forum eventually do, into gripes about Reddit as a whole and completely ignoring the point was inviting HC folks to a specific area to talk about HC.

Ahh, that brings up memories. A line from Spider and Jeanne Robinson's novel Stardance: "Tact? I've always understood that to be a mutual agreement to be full of shit."

If everyone could chill, that would be (to use a technical term) swell.

But how will we know who is nicer and more mature if we can't insult each other?

How does a Boomer act? I'm afraid I need a lengthy explanation before we can continue in good faith.

Didn't you know?
We need these user's EXPRESS permission to do anything.
After all, City of Heroes was made specifically just for these two people -- We all know that it's their world and we're all just a bunch of NPCs here.

Meanwhile... over on Reddit.

You have a really funny way of asking for permission.  But then again you know you don't need it so I have to assume that your purpose in continuing to mock people here is that you want the attention. So here:

I don't think I've missed your point at all. So far you've done a wonderful job of representing what the reddit Homecoming group must be like. I'll stand by my initial 🤮.

[GM Flints]

Not interested in deciphering what is a shitpost and what is just a shit post, much prefer to continue my 4-hour so far flowchart about frogs in D&D, 

Y'all been told to be nice already, a second reminder shouldn't be required. 

 

[Snarky]

4 hour flowchart about frogs in D&D.....  not enough info to determine meaning.  But whatever you do, do not hop off now.

I'm with Snarky on this I would love to know more about this Frogchart.

You've appealed to my inner nerd Flints.

Wait-- also my outernerd.

Ah hell, I'm all nerd!

Also--

Presently I've set up a pinned lil link to remind people that the Forums exist, as well as the HC discord.
Any other ideas on things I should set up? 😮

Okay fine, as long as y'all play nice. 
Grung need more respect than just "Evil Chult Slavers" so the obvious first step in rewriting them is creating a flowchart for their ancestry. 

[Ruin Mage]

Nice idea. I hope the subreddit grows.

[Luminara]

Bruh.

I completely feel this sort of time and effort. This is super incredible.

It reminds me of the sort of nerd-work I do for simple projects like Skyrim Together.
I spent the last entire day (hungover) packing this 225 Page (so far, I've got like three more sections to build) doc for my small Skyrim Together party, and as a long term fan and supporter of dice and TTRPG elements in general this has me
