Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@HotGoomba___Rebrand we found you. Get back in there immediately.

@HotGoomba___Rebrand Good grief. That cesspit is still breeding comments?

All it took was one user - the first comment even - to drag in something irrelevant to the article, and that was enough to bring in the troops. Nothing good will come of that comment section, out of either main "side". I'm surprised the staff hasn't already closed it.

I had to stop reading it shortly after posting my own comment (which I meant; I'm so, SO glad I don't have Twitter) for fear of concussing myself from facepalming.

Edit: Looks like the comment count is shrinking. Bans and/or deleted comments must be responsible.

@Tyranexx You can toss me invites either way. When the game feels like working, it gives me notifications. And if I don't join right away, you can always invite me again, if you need more people. I often back out and re-invite people. Case in point, someone just invited me while typing this. XD

And in opposition to Niantic, yes in the main games it's got a lot of RNG, but you control how many balls, and what type of balls you have. As well as you can do things to improve your odds, like sleep or paralyze. Niantic limits you to a set number of balls and only the one type.

@ThanosReXXX My family is like "COVID restrictions? None of us are sick, it's fine! Grandma is over 80, I'm sure it's fine! Thanksgiving, Christmas, let's go!" Meanwhile America is consistently reporting 100k a day and my mother thinks the risk of tracking devices in the vaccine are a the real problem. That and the government taking our rights away with evil masks and stuff.

#I'mashamedtobeAmerican...again!

@Heavyarms55 Sure! I've noticed the game's notifications are inconsistent about alerting me to invites when I'm not running it. I've missed a few thanks to that.

Yep, after I posted that I remembered how it only limits you to Premier Balls, and you can't use those useful status effects. I do highly dislike the ball limit, especially when the screen accidentally registers a movement as a swipe or ball spin.... -__-

(Returns to watching videos on YouTube)

@Eel Dude, thank you so, so, SO much for taking care of that. Sends virtual hug and an imaginary plate of desserts

I view it less like cleaning house and more like you exiting a war zone lol. One that involved firebombs, mortars, acid pits, and neutral UN reps on the sidelines.

Hah. It could be worse.

I could be a content moderator on youtube or twitter.

Speaking about broom and cleaning service...

/SHUDDER

I would gladly pass on those positions. My banhammer and sanity would be reduced to nil.

If you were a YouTube mod, you'd just be hearing "Never Gonna Give You Up" every 3 hours.

@HotGoomba___Rebrand
I have better Never Gonna Give You Up.

@Anti-Matter debatable

@HotGoomba___Rebrand
Where? Was it in the Sniper Elite review or did Nintendo Life post those Brie Larson Nintendo ads for 30 minutes or so and it got removed?

@Toy_Link The Hyper Light Drifter article. Most of the comments were deleted and I think that @nessisonett got temporarily banned for starting the argument.

@HotGoomba___Rebrand
Thanks, from the few slightly political comments that are left I'm very glad that I didn't read it while the political warriors were sparring with each other. lol.

@HotGoomba___Rebrand I noticed that he starts those political stuff here and over at PushSquare. Even if the article is not about that he must "defend!" the values of some people. I think he has some phobia that the world is against the "different" people.

I argued with him couple of times.

But it would have been fun to read. I am sad I missed it

I was too distracted looking at videos of PS5 Coil Whine and playing WoW!!!

But on a more fun note today I expect my order of magnets to arrive and I will start my next "interactive" sculpture from polymer clay ... the Earth Elemental!

@HotGoomba___Rebrand I'm not entirely sure I'd call that a "temporary" ban. But who knows!

@Tyranexx Yeah. It's totally inconsistent. But it works sometimes. Lol

And hey, now gen 6 is coming and the level cap is rising. Huzzah updates! I wonder if the community will throw another tantrum. I kinda stopped listening after the Home-Go tantrum.

Wow, I missed that whole thing, followed the comments here, and tried to figure out what article was even involved.....and none of the articles even have any hint of being related to anything political.... (which is rare for Damo, admittedly... )

nessi got banned...permanently? Woow....amazing. Odd user. Seems like a nice guy, has good comments on gaming....but goes waay off into extreme political agenda activism and haranguing of anyone that disagrees or even doesn't celebrate his world view on a level of religious zealotry at the drop of a hat. I kind of can't believe it took this long. Which is a shame, because on gaming he's pleasant.
