im a hoe for visuals and ratlobber makes awesome intros for mostly gmod / source related stuff. nohluhn i heard is either an actual kpop artist or is just someone obsessed with them, but the graphics are baller and epic. sam hyde has uploaded a lot of the graphics from their productions that are unbelievable. say what you want about sam hyde but the guy that plays a big part in making the visuals- his name is konzept.globe. these graphics kick ass.

i think theres an objective science to appealing graphics and to see people nail it makes me happy

i have always kinda wondered why this seems to have died, did people just get too used to free VC slush money for everything in the 2010s? self hosting isn't that much more expensive now is it?

i cant speak for every community, but i will say zelda OOT (and really all n64) modding used to be an extremely niche thing in 2009 and it was split between like, 3 different smf forums that were barely active. every key user to get information from was on them and some of them even had their own sites, but it took weeks to get answers to even the most basic questions. as soon as everyone caught onto discord that stuff boomed. the niche early console modding community has objectively flourished because everyones in such close contact now

its fun to think about. blockland spawned kiwifwarms which is wild. and ive posted about this before but could blockland have spawned the entire genre of source humor?

would the gmod idiot box or kitty0706 (both of which arguably inspired what we know source humor to be) have created what they did if the idiots of gmod didnt exist? you do realize the idiots of gmod spawned from the idiots of blockland right? its practically the same format and everything. go look at the credits of idiots of gmod 1. its probably 80% blockland people. djy1991 and icton made idiots of blockland first

forget it ill list their accounts cause i know they had them:
djy1991: https://forum.blockland.us/index.php?action=profile;u=1294

this might be forgeted up for me to admit but i actually really like heavy breathing. big child enthusiast band allegedly and they played at the pizza place but i would absolutely go to comet ping pong an bully them about when or where heavy breathing is playing again. these people are still alive and theres no way they gave this up. i used to drive downtown with all my windows down blaring this as loud as possible in hopes a schzio would hear it and freak out lol

Good, hopefully they're locked up for a long long time

genuinely.

kodens avatar lives in my mind as one of those "old forum avatars that never changes and reminds you of those times" kind of things. i also hope this brings you peace

what you're doing is okay, but it's not, and shouldn't be, out of respect for those people, their culture, and history, that we white people do not have in common

i feel like you're imagining the absolute worse case scenario which would be me just going around and saying nasty words to people because i can, which couldn't be farther from the truth. all i was advocating for is that people have the right to say this stuff if they want to. im not an idiot. i know how to treat people with respect and not make their lives a living hell. i wouldn't have the relationships i have or the jobs ive had if i was some spiteful evil person.

i just think basing your interactions with people of color based off these factors is weird. respect their culture and their history (obviously) but these people aren't untouchable. its okay to forget with each other every now and then if you like and respect each other

I guess my ramble is to lead to this question - if alienation IS a major influence to the pipeline to a certain subet of youth, how do we maintain safety on the internet without alienating people we disagree with (no matter how valid)?

How do we maintain a safe and protected space for all without giving up on others? Is it even possible? If not, what do we do with those we have written off?

all anyone had to do was not be nasty about their ideas. as of now we've gotten to a point where everyones going to be nasty about their ideas and throw around nasty words to each other. but in 2015-16. when people were bringing up gamergate or the immigration crCIA in europe or even something as crazy as pizzagate. if we could have had a normal conversation about it instead of being called national socialists or white supremacist's or tribal's or conspiracy theorist's or whatever ist or ism, this wouldn't be happening right now.

Freedom of speech does not mean a white guy can shout the N word or vague national socialistsms for fun and it'll just be accepted

they still do it to this day. why bring up a white guy specifically? why national socialist stuff? this charged language has been a thing since 2015 and is exactly the kind of thing that has forgeted all of this up. i was willing to have a conversation until i was deemed an enemy simply because im white and i dont care.

Context matters, power dynamics matter, and dismissing all that as who gives a forget is exactly the kind of casual ignorance that keeps these conversations going in circles.

i agree completely. the point im trying to make is that masterlegodude wants to imply

Freedom of speech does not mean a white guy can shout the N word or vague national socialistsms for fun

which is incorrect. words have consequences and i think everyone understands that. a "white guy" or any guy for that matter can shout whatever they want for fun. thats what free speech is. i imagine you think this only relates to people on stage or in large crowds, but eventually that would trickle down to the individual. should people get arrested or forgeted with because they call their good friends friends or something?

thats why im beginning to believe theres a disconnect between some people and the real human experience. when you have a really good relationship with someone its natural to say harsh stuff to each other because you know neither of you actually mean it in a hateful way and its fun. its a sign of trust and strengthens your bond with others. i hope its obvious i wouldn't advocate just throwing the n word around willy nilly to random strangers. that'd be like me calling people i dont even know friends all the time. but i absolutely think you should be able to say that without being hunted by shadow police for wrong think or something

There's only one N word when it comes to the topic of 'racism' and 'old American traditions', please don't play dumb

the monday word? i only ask because somehow "brother" got thrown into N word status when i was always under the assumption the N word was monday but apparently that can also be brother too sometimes. babying your language around black people has always been so foreign to me. if im supposed to see these people as my equals then im certainly not going to care what language i use around them cause i wouldn't do that with any other person or whatever type of people. if they call their closest people brothers and even call me a brother then im gonna call them brothers because at this point its just a sign of respect.

speaking of which, how can you speak for how black people feel? were not even black. who gives a forget? either they'll let you know when its a problem or they wont. they've never done that to me. have they done that to you? i also live in the hood so that might be the difference
