Just MORE Chatting
The Blind Eternities forum

fresh start. GO
To further what CanadianShinobi has said, if you need an other people outlet for whatever's in your head at the time, find some people who are both willing to deal with it and your own age. Taking it out on a forum of teenage-to-adult strangers is going to make people angry.

Cobalt, zaffre, and black sky, 50 and clear, steady breeze, and clean country air. This is joyriding weather.

Here comes my highly unpopular opinions
Derp is doing nothing wrong...or rather not doing anything that this thread was intended for
I remember a time when what he is doing was the NORM of this thread. Femme and I have talked about this before. It's really sad that you can't have nice things. Go back and read JC 1. You'll see the evolution from a quiet place of solace between friends to be
themselves into a dedicated thread to be intellectual
TLDR: this place was much different and I'm sad we got this big

I be teen-age. Don't be hatin' on the teen-age.
That said, I agree.

VampireArmy, if the point of this thread used to be reading a bored thirteen year old's stream of consciousness, I'm actually glad I didn't participate.

Hilarity and spontaneity are fine. Shitposting random things 2-3 posts in a row isn't fine. Also, all caps hurts my eyes.
And the pages are long so we have to scroll through a lot of random stuff

Considering that the first JC didn't contain any bored 13 y/o's, I think VA was talking about how the thread has evolved to this point.

VampireArmy I'm fine with random, however, I feel there's a line to drawn. This has nothing to do with being intellectual. But when I see five posts in a row with someone tagging themselves because they're bored, or just random bullshit that cuts off even the most casual of conversations, then yeah, I'm going to get pissed off.

I thought the old JC thread was cool. No one was asinine. Good times.

Pretty much what CanadianShinobi said.
Randomness and off-topic banter are fine. But they aren't excuses for ignoring basic forum etiquette.

Also, could we not go back to arguing about the behavior of a user? We did that for IM and it did absolutely nothing good.

I both agree and disagree with VampireArmy's post. I agree that this thread (and site in general) has turned into dedicated place to be intellectual and I've also been caught up it in, and have also been depressed by it on numerous times. I disagree that Derp is doing what we used to do. Our posts back than had purpose, they flowed with each other. We were communicating with each other rather than posting something that no one else would really care about.

I have the weirdest urge to make a Frozen EDH deck. Like not a character deck, but just cards that have ice themes.

GoldGhost012 We are very sorry to announce that you are sick with an incurable disease... Call for Blizzicane man, perhaps he can help you.

In essance you said what you wanted
Point being everyone was very quick to pile on the "let's make a change" train...then shit like this happends
By the by i spent many a nights myself doing exactly as he did and yet...no one bothered to tell me not to. Why not?
April 12, 2015 9:19 p.m.
Deeper Discussion (Serious Time) I thought the discussions like this were supposed to go in this thread. If you plan on continuing it please move there to save the rest of us that don't care for this discussion.

VampireArmy says... #23
What belongs in this thread then?
How can we appease everyone's ever so delicate sensibilities?
How do you define this thread which was intended to be a thread with no neaning but whatever i guess. I'll be that guy

FAMOUSWATERMELON says... #24
On a lighter topic: Am I the only one who gets the advertisements with the really hot chicks on the side?
April 12, 2015 9:42 p.m.
I only suggest this because this is one of those arguments that tends to pit us against each other and then this could turn into what happened with im, modern bannings and commander rule changes to where everyone threatens to leave and some actually did leave. You said it yourself this was a causal thread were we can joke around and have fun, not pester a person for having fun. So if you would be so kind I have already linked the other thread.

VampireArmy says... #28
If you think that was my only point then you've missed part of what I'm talking about
A LOT of "real talk" has always happened here. A lot of relating horrible stories a lot of depression a lot of seriousness that obviously made people uncomfortable. My other point beyond the first that you mentioned is that if your skin is that thin that you can't handle what's said here, perhaps this isnt a good thread to join
April 12, 2015 9:50 p.m.
First off, I'm not against "real talk". Its healthy and perfectly fine here. Arguing about the behaviour of a user is not real talk.
Also, look at the comments of this thread since this started. Its slowed down a lot because some of the people who we enjoy talking to don't want to see this. This has nothing to do with how thick your skin is but just a preference to avoid arguments that could be held in a more appropriate place. Its like when your parents would argue in front of you, its really awkward and could be brought to a more appropriate place and time. A better way to go about this, I know you didn't start this VA, would have been to post the request to stop spazzing out on his wall with linking a few people that may feel the same and maturely discuss his actions with him.
I'm only trying to help us enjoy our time together.
April 12, 2015 10:02 p.m.
Wow, this conversation got really deep, really fast.
Got into a fight with my mom today. Now I'm sad ;(

VampireArmy says... #31
Perhaps but I am thoroughly agitated at certain users blatantly telling others what they are allowed to post or how (within context.)
Sure, they could have taken it to his wall and perhaps then others wouldn't feel so obliged to dogpile but I stick by my statements.
April 12, 2015 10:06 p.m.
I don't really agree with having a separate forum for the "deep" discussions personally. If another user is having a rough time with something, I think they deserve the full attention of the entire community, and not just those who are subscribed the "deep" forum. And that sucks, tennis. What happened?

Got a dream draft at FNM, Managed to scrounge out like 4 lightstalkers and 4 Sandcrafter Mage.
I even got passed 2 Elite Scaleguards, an Arashin Foremost, a Daghatar the Adamant, Citadel Siege and a Dragonscale General.
My deck was ridiculous.
Also had decent removal like Death Wind and Flatten.

Novel idea: we let the admin address the situation and then resume whatever we were doing.
Seriously, I've noticed an uncomfortable rise in backseat moderating. Calmly expressing an observation is one thing, but we don't need ten people jumping at someone.
April 12, 2015 10:15 p.m.
Posting to incite discussion is fine. Posting because you have nothing better to do is not, and neither is posting something that is completely irrelevant.
"But wait!" you cry out. "Isn't everything here technically irrelevant? It's just a bunch of us fucking around."
But this does not stump bigguy99; in fact, it gives him a chance to offer his wisdom:
Get along. Tired of this shit.

Epochalyptik says... #37
Posting for lack of something to do is fine if you're starting a discussion or even making a passing remark. All I want to end here is the chains of rapid-fire posts from someone trying to artificially create a conversation with himself or herself.

CanadianShinobi says... #39
So, because I point out something that probably should be happening I'm all of a sudden backseat moderating?

ThisIsBullshit: Thanks, Tibbles! I also pulled a Cavern of Souls in the pack I bought with my drink to hit the minimum credit card limit
April 12, 2015 10:40 p.m.
How much you get the pack for? I imagine the shit's not cheap. Some place I know is selling Darksteel packs for 15.
April 12, 2015 10:47 p.m.
So hey guys. We need to have some rules for this forum now. No game of thrones spoilers. At all. Plz.

Inference is not implication.
Either way, I don't care who's doing it. I just want it to stop. The past month has been basically all damage control, whether it's over one user or another. I'm getting tired of it.

bigguy99: Cavern of souls is from Avacyn Restored, so... 5 bucks?

So apparently a majority of the men and women I become sexual with are into trans and futa girls, regardless of whether or not I tell them I'm trans. And it made me reflect on myself and have a revelation.
I've always been in an eternal dilemma of whether or not I should keep my penis or not. On the one hand, I've always felt that I've hated the thing and thought that it was disgusting and frequently felt that my sexuality for wanting to use it was disgusting. On the other, I've always enjoyed the thought of using it on my sex friends that I love and care about (vampirelazarus, shout out to you~) and especially applies in my throes of lust.
So fast forward to just before I started rp'ing with one of the guys (the other's greatest fetish is trans/futas) I asked him what would he rather have me as, futa/trans/regular girl. His response to me was to close my eyes and imagine an image of my true self. That image is who he'll have. What came to my mind was a red-headed, futanari femme fatale.
Now I was wondering exactly why I thought that. Why did an image of a cock wielding girl come to mind when just the day before he asked me that I was lamenting on how I really did not want a cock? Well, after a few minutes of thinking I came to this conclusion. I didn't hate my cock. In fact, I really enjoyed it as sense that many of my fantasies in my throes of lust includes it. More and more so after the months go by. But what I hated was the fact that it took the place of the vagina I always desired to have. I desire to have the girl parts a lot more than I enjoy the male parts, and that is what I hated, was being stuck with the parts I liked the least.
Make no mistake of gender however, gender is female. I'm not gonna all of the sudden want a male body, no. I want a female body. It's just that I've finally come to realize my proper sexuality. I've lived with a penis and would be happy to keep it along with getting the whole female body. But if I was forced to decide, then yes, the cock is coming off for good.
I hope I can save enough money up and find a surgeon who can perform this on me. That's the hard part. The money, and being able to find someone who doesn't think it is unethical. One day it will be done. One day. And I won't stop until it is done.

@VampireArmy: I'd be lying if I said that philosophical vindication didn't do anything for me. I enjoy dismantling bad logic probably as much as I hate seeing it used. But there is a genuine attempt to educate; it's not just telling people they're wrong for the sake of telling people they're wrong.
