While Shoopthewoop is easily offended, this thread has become about not making generalizations about a particular denomination--which he/she pointed out as being done. So let's at least acknowledge that that is a little bit of the same thing.With that said, I would also recommend OT to Shoopthewoop. I do like your username however.


Talking abstractly and generically about the evils of generalisations is more-than-slightly different from being personally offended about any generalisations you feel have been made in passing about your own religion, and being defensive about it. Fuck that noise.
... I do approve of the name too, though. Takes me back.

What do you mean. I am just looking for a forum that has games. Does off topic have games.


Does this thread look like a game? No? Shocker. Off-Topic does not have games, but it does have threads where people get offended and upset over controversial topics with an ease that's ridiculous considering they know the topics are controversial. So post in game threads for your gaming needs, and post in Off-Topic for your overly-defensive derpbating needs, and all will be fantabulous.

I've been sassy but not angry. I'm just tired of the bullshit and I'm not going to ignore it entirely. I've noticed improvements and/or the scarcity of some of the new folks I gave a hard time to last week. Thank you, Mole for easing up on the ellipses. That beaning said, I'm not here to haze people but I'm also not going to let a bunch of shit posting drag down Spam anymore than it is. Looks like Nat's gone and all his clones need to stay gone as well. Maybe we don't need to be assholes but we do have to maintain some semblance of standards here. Most of the vanguard that once kept shit posting in check are gone and you see what happened when it was allowed to go unchecked.


I was joking about the anger; other than that, yeah, I agree fully with you.

I wasn't criticising all individual Catholics; I acknowledge that individuals of all religions and creeds can be wonderful or terrible people of their own accord. The institution of the Catholic Church, however, I am not much a fan of.
Sorry, home life has been somewhat rough recently. I promise I have not abandoned this roleplay. x_x
Saw the "ad" (so to speak) on Facebook, and having read the OOC OP I'm quite interested. I'll be rather busy packing and travelling over the next few days, but I will hopefully be making an application!

Where the hell did you pull that from?


I thought I remembered seeing an '05 or '06 join date back when I joined in Feb '10, and recalled seeing many more from '07 onwards (hence the "getting bigger in '07 comment). but evidently not. As I alluded, I'm not the person to ask - older members are. Or clever little sods like Brovo.

I'm not sure how new or old you are to spam, but this increased harshness isn't new. In all honesty, I'm shocked at the level of tolerance. A year ago, if half of these threads were made there would've been a swarm of vets posting to tear them a new ass.


Older to spam than you, for sure. And you haven't been around for quite some time; the way Spam is acting towards newcomers now is the harshest it's been in months, mainly because we haven't had this sort of influx between the, uh, "vets" leaving, and now.

Well, I'm absolute garbageEveryone come tell me how much of a useless cunt I amUnite Spam under the banner of telling me I suck


I know you're loathe to accept this, but you actually make us laugh sometimes. And at the very least I never actually physically cringe over your posts, like I have been with some of the newbies.
I dunno, I think people are noticing that when we're all too nice there's room for absolute idiocy to slip through. All those who were the resident "magnificent bastards", or just dickheads, used to #rek morons. We criticised them for being that way, but didn't quite realise it was what protected us from too much 13-year-old stupidity, or that it actually helped create our community by way of the fact that those who 'survived' the 'hazing' were generally of a certain type and quality. People are just now realising that the payoff for tolerance and kindness to one another is inviting less-wanted folk in and having to tolerate them too, and the backlash against that is a combination of increased harshness to newcomers (Idle-senpai been so mad these past few days D:) and in general, as well as making a big shitstorm out of it. The fear is that this isn't just a summer swarm anymore, but, because of the changing dynamic of this community, will become a permanent fixture.

Don't pretend "I am the lord of the dance said he" doesn't fill you with entire realms of joyous nostalgia.

I meant in comparison to other branches of Christianity.


I'm biased because I'm British and we (historically) fucking hate the Catholics, so take this with a grain of salt, but I rather disagree.
