Spoiler: show
Now that I've gathered all the pseudo-philosophers here (there's been a lot lately), I gotta ask what's up with the "Don't like the topic don't post" mentality that so many people seem to support?
Are we supposed to just turn a blind eye on things we don't like? For instance I see someone appealing to violence here in the forums? Am I wrong if I go out of my way to try and stop that? Because if you say "don't like it, don't post" it kinda sounds like you don't accept anything other than your own point of view. I realize one thing is harming another human being quite another is just posting useless threads but the argument stands, if someone is baited to a thread that turns out he doesn't think it belongs there or he finds it useless or whatever shouldn't he be allowed to voice his opinion on the thread?
If you post about a particularly controversial topic expect people to react controversially. We're all here in this forum, if we don't like something we should have the right to say so. I for once think if a thread is shitty people are entitled to say so, it's their opinion after all.
This is gonna rub many people on the wrong side but at least it serves the purpose of stopping this childish mentality.
If you have anything to say on this matter, positive or negative, don't keep it to yourself speak up, even if it is saying that this thread is crappy.
Just by reading the first few lines I noticed where you went off track.
It's not about people not sharing the same points of view, it's about the haters.
The creator of the thread noticed he received hate on his post. The comments were not even going against his point of view, they were literally calling his post a shitpost, to which he responded with "if you don't like it, don't comment".
There's nothing wrong with it, lol.
I believe everyone has their own opinion and I respect everyones views. However yes I have recently told people dont like the topic dont post but thats when they dont even give their opinion they just leave a slightly disrespectful mark that has nothing to do with the post in the first place... Kinda feel like this whole post was about me honestly.
Further more I made it clear I was attempting to be more active on the thread all I ever see is useless suggestions as to how everyone thinks they game should work when really none of their ideas are even going to come in to play, it will be years before vreg or any of the staff reads all the suggestions so I post other topics with the intent of getting people talking and debating.. I watch so many people post so many pointless post I just figured I'd ask deeper questions and get people talking but I get it yall only wanna read and talk about pretend slo clans and orgs or give your ideas as to how the game should work. I'll keep it in mind.
I've been talking to players and on forums trying to gauge out the community see how people think and what their belief systems are. But I see the community has its toxic people like everything else.
Again if you want to discuss why a thread is crap or criticize a thread then talk it to general discussion! Don't do it on a thread with a spacific topic!I just hate seeing them in the Recent Topics so much and some of em are clickbait as fuck like "Curious"
That was actually my favourite post in a while ngl. Anyways, i didnt think it was deep enough to like... 'bully' the man off of the forums. Yeah 'the weak' and all that shit but still, its never that deep bro. However, the posts were absolutely brain dead bro, like if i wanted to find out peoples believe about God, id go to a fucking church LMAO. Or maybe buy a bible or some shit idk, but i come onto the forums to see what people are think about the game and how people want it to develop and shit. Idk if anyone else feels the same way but i really coudnt give a shit about the meaning of life and shit lol. Theres no need to rage quit the forum, just tone it down a little and keep shit relevant bro.Again if you want to discuss why a thread is crap or criticize a thread then talk it to general discussion!

I applaud you all that think the "make-believe" Kage and clans/orgs are irrelevant but a stupid post about existential crisis is. Einstein logic right there
you get what he means tho... if you don't then you're just mentally clapped. These topics need to be moved to somewhere relevant, or not be as frequently asked lol.

I'm unclear as to what you mean here!
Are you saying spending time playing "make believe" is more or less valuable then thinking about existential questions?
Also your using existential wrong!
existentialism = that people are (1) defined only insofar as they act and (2) that they are responsible for their actions
By this definition I would say the people that are playing "make believe" are the ones that have adopted this existentialist philosophy.
Suroshi's beleves in a meaning to life. That we are meant to pass on are genetics and knowledge to the next generation. This goal is a definition of his life and dose not fall in to the category of existentialism.
I think the one missing the entire point of this thread is you. We're not arguing about whether or not he believes in god knows what neither are we here to discuss how much more important those things are than "make-believe".I've been talking to players and on forums trying to gauge out the community see how people think and what their belief systems are.
