I'm sorry, but Ireland is clearly the best country ever.

I thought you were going to be sarcastic or something, but that actually is a gorgeous countryside.

it was always infractable without this new one, just it wasnt always as clear what to do and people had to go to a smod or admin for a custom infraction, which could often have different results depending on who did it. plus more hoops to jump through often means less results if a reg mod didnt want to bother us or we forgot or something. now we have a clear outcome for each time it comes up. kinda sad it happens so often that a new default infraction was necessary tho :|

Please tell me that it isn't going to be enforced when we're obviously joking. Because I make racial slurs towards half the people I talk to here, but I think it's pretty obvious that I'm joking and I've never had anybody complain or retaliate.

Oh yeah I've never watched the Office (well one episode, but I didn't think it was that funny) and I've never seen Spaceballs.

New rule is cool.

The Office wasn't funny? You probably just watched a bad episode, then, because most of the series is pretty great imo

Yeah I watched one episode a few years ago and didn't laugh the entire time. It might've been from the first or second season, can't really remember, but it was definitely early on in the show's run. Though when the show first came on I would've been like nine years old or something like that, I may have just not gotten the humor at that point in time.

for jokes it depends on the context like every other kind of joke. if it's to your friend who you know is ok with it i probably wont care. but if you say it to someone and they report it to me for flaming or w/e then you probably will get an infraction. personally i wouldnt recommend using racial slurs anywhere that other people can read in the first place because the word itself is pretty charged for a lot of people, but like i said itll depend on context

No way to argue against that. Still, it seems like it could've been better if, instead of watering down the exact same events and making them half-hearted and/or confusing, they could've adjusted them to fit into a new medium (sort of like Yukine's story, even if I didn't especially like it). I guess it's not so much annoying that it's bad, because who the hell cares, but that people apparently think that it's so great when it is a massively-inferior adaption (plus, way more people love and are defensive of Nagisa than hate her, from what I've seen). I think I need to watch some anime adaption first and play the original VN second and see if I wind up as deluded as these people.

Yeah, I've just come to terms that the anime will almost always be inferior to the original source, so I just take the show as it is. Without prior knoledge of the VN, the anime really is a great stand alone show.

I also just learned that "CE" on calculators means clear everything...

What have I been doing with my life.

[moot]

Ever been to New Zealand.

[Snorunt conservationist]

This is certainly nice to see.

Cool. Now I'll just get the five point infraction for being wrongfully accused of homophobia.

It sounds like something for filthy Communists, and that's why we don't learn about it in America!

Maybe it's talking about how long you'll be driving on the road where the chances of hitting a kangaroo are 99%.

I think you're being discriminatory towards Americans.

Not too long ago, a few guys did this. There's a series about it on YouTube called "A Simple Walk Into Mordor" where they hike the ~120 miles in I think six days. It's only about an hour long in total IIRC, and it's a pretty interesting watch.

[SpeedDeoxys]

Everyone's talking about countries lol

BTW, I'm from Germany. Suprise?

Yeah, I heard about that! I've been meaning to watch that.

Anyway, I was quoting Dwight Schrute and apparently that went unnoticed despite the recent conversation about The Office.
I am disappoint.
