JD sheep doesn't need to be banned because JD sheep is dead.

Great shitposting.

Ah the irony.

Anyways, removing Kappa and whatnot is fine, but leave hashtags because holy shit you can't actually plan to "censor" THAT much, r-right? Assuming someone doesn't use # next to every word in a post, it still maintains the quality of the original post.

"Deal with it" has the exact same meaning as "#dealwithit".


Probably has the same meaning but it just makes you 1000 times more moronic

Because what?

I am an idiot moron without a sense of "proper" humor, because I find something else funny that you happen to do?

That attitude, is what I'd call "1000 times more moronic"

Don't ban it by all means, I find hashtags obnoxious as fuck and redundant for the most part on mediums where they're not required. If people used them with wit all the time this wouldn't be a problem, but as with image macros that's sadly not the case

People use it because they think it justifies the obnoxious or ignorant things they type.

hashtags don't work on this site, they're overused and they aren't funny.

Thank God.
If i wanted annoying meme's repeated ad nausea then another thousand times, I'd hang out in the wretched hive of scum and villiany that is Twitch chat. Glad TL is still a place where us classy gentlemen can yell at each other

I was wondering what the hell was Kappa. I thought that everyone suddenly talked about the supernatural Japanese folklore monster and I couldn't figure it out why..

Plot twist: You're the shitposter for taking an official mod announcement thread and using it to air all of your opinions on what you find funny/makes everyone else a moron.

Haha, me too. Especially since I usually saw it in the context of Dota2, where people (for some annoying reason) like to misspell everything. I suppose it makes you cool to call it doto instead of dota, and volvo instead of valve.

Except spamming memes, kappa and hashtags is pretty much the same shit.

so wait, you mean writing 'kappa' gets you banned? :S I'm not familiar with twitch chat but I don't recall seeing it written in the LR threads I've been in.

ya i have no idea what everyone's complaining about. so is the rule that we can not type 'kappa' or other twitch emote in our forum messages? i mean its a word, and not an image that pops up?

Hm, I guess this is a good thing.
I never really get bothered by seeing any of these twitch chat things being posted.

More seriously though, I'm never happy to see censorship. I don't think what makes TL amazing is its high standards for banning memes.

Memes are fine as a single reference. But in the internet, people tend to just spout memes without any substance behind it.
Since memes alone are rarely never expressing one's opinion in a meaningful way, they are censored.
If people were just posting quotes upon quotes of historic books without any of their own thought contributed, that would be cenosred as well(if something like that was happening. It is not happening right now).
