Probably the fastest way to get on my nerves is to act all elitist and holier-than-thou, especially if you're a problem user. One of the more recent things that really pissed me off was Raccooner making fun of OfficerZach when he's demonstrably far worse than him (that's even supposing that Zach is a bad guy, he's provably grown in his time here to be actually a bit respectable). It's also outstanding how many people will just defend people doing really stuffty things, like with the whole beachbum private investigating scandal recently. I'm not going to dig into that anymore. There's a whole topic for that.
Boy all I did was make a pic of me and my"oc" as a joke. And post a pic of a doraemon plush with some weird sandwich thing.

literally everyone just stuffs on each other in those threads. they're fallacy-city as well.
not all the time. there's some wholesome discussion in there from time to time

there is nowhere else on the internet that you can witness the effects of putting random people together only connected through their playtime in a sandbox game, and that's why I love this forum so much
on social media you often feel like you're in an echochamber whereby the only views you hear are your own, then here you have borderline national socialists interacting with commies. I disagree that the political threads are bad because I have seen actual intellectual debate there, and though I don't agree with anything either say I respect cappytaino and tactical nuke for extensively using sources and actually backing up what they say instead of resorting to calling people carrot sniffers.
only big pet peeve about this forum I have is the shadow of anonymity that comes with threads like 'post real life pictures of yourself' where people just talk stuff about other's appearances without ever revealing themselves

Most users are immature and it shows.

Go look at the politics thread for the prime examples of this. 3/4 of the thread is just low effort posts to straight up stuffposts of a sentence or two at most which contribute very little to the discussion.

this place is a s-hole.
we don't want these people coming to our servers. 
why can't we have some redditors come instead?

ah wait i gota do this like how it was done on op
1.it can be pretty toxic at times and it kinda makes me feel some dread when i visit the forums sometimes, but it has its moments where i enjoy the hijinks that happen on the forums, hell i like a good portion of people from the forums here shoutout to the amigos on fish tank who came from the unofficial bl discord and or came from the forums (and retro arcade)
2. iunno tbh
3. varies, theres like, certain people i feel as if theyre alright to talk with outside the forums compared to how they acy on here.
4. ykno when someones whole shtick in a thread or account is just to be an starfish??????.?.?.?? ? ? ?    ? yea i hate it
5. iiiiiiiiiiii feel like i dont really contribute to either side but i feel like i could (or am) contribute positively to the forums...like...at least im not hated i suppose so theres that :D

Boy all I did was make a pic of me and my"oc" as a joke. And post a pic of a doraemon plush with some weird sandwich thing.

yeah bullstuff

-snippy dippy-
i cant resist but to laugh at that.
you of all people are not in a position to do that

you laughed at a poorly-made photo of him with his model while you have in the past
  • posted your loving fox abomination image everywhere, even in threads where it doesn't belong
  • posted photos of sears and escalators, which you seem to have an unhealthy obsession with
  • been at least 100x as much of a sperg as zach was in the decals thread when all of this was repeatedly pointed out to you and when you were asked to stop by multiple forum users

this place is a s-hole.

that would be about fifty billion times worse

1. ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm gay but cool.

2. idk

3. i dont even know them so u shoulde always forgive them

4. people saying "ok", or 29 year olds bullying little children lol

5. i don't care or know honestly

that would be about fifty billion times worse
no they're great people.  the best people.  trust me.
everyone's saying it.  everyone's saying it.

no they're great people.  the best people.  trust me.
everyone's saying it.  everyone's saying it.
i'mn't saying it

don't even bother separating political discussion, i'd suggest outright banning it. i don't think it segues into a forum meant for a lego game.
literally everyone just stuffs on each other in those threads. they're fallacy-city as well.

everything i dont like should be banned



too many starfishs and borderline national socialists not sure why I stay here. also look at beachbum's post on the first page of off-topic and that should also help explain why I hate this forum

Oh thats why you stopped talking to me lmao

one of the most toxic places i've ever seen but damn if I haven't met a lot of nice people on here.
