I'm not sure it will be that big of a change, but this would help more timid hosts crack down on things and do stuff like warn Steveling in Golden Sun Djinn Edition | ||

Consider yourself on your best behavior in any game I host. I have very different morals than most people. When the time comes, I am probably going to be the strictest host. This post is bold because it is the most sincere; I really enjoy lampshading and light sarcasm, the sort that almost isn't sarcasm. I literally will censor my games. I know that means a lot of vets won't come, but I want it out there as an experiment and it would be most honest. If you look at NMM LXIII, LXIV, and LXV (I think) you will see I actually tried to censor other players. Believe it or not I think I could fill a game this way. This seems to be the direction TLM is headed, people who see me on OMGUS may think I am not serious, but I am. OMGUS provides the loose atmosphere, so, here I can provide the tight atmosphere. | ||

I'm in favor of a community norm against referring to people as vets for reasons like saying "we can't lynch him cause he's a vet" or "there's a massive vet conspiracy out to get Steveling" but there are useful times to say something like "Palmar is an experienced player who has played a lot on TL Mafia" in a more compressed way. So: Vet | ||

Somehow people aren't understanding this. First it was Plexa, now it's GMarshal - the "main" mod responsible for the forum actually goes to bat for you guys. Other people on the forum look at this place and wonder how we get away with so much wayward behavior. GM and Foolishness just propose cleaning it up not only for the sake of making it look like the rest of the place, but because they want to start promoting TL Mafia on the main page. Hurrr durr when newbies show up we don't want them to see bickering and arguing between "vets"(lol). This move to clean the place up via hosts enforcing some agreed upon rules would actually lead to getting rid of the Ban List. One of the very things some of you rail against could be phased out by this move. New players won't see anything but games and a well moderated community that can be easily promoted. You can still flame and insult people in thread as long as it doesn't go overboard. Everyone wins. I hate having to think one step ahead for some of you jub jubs (dat insult!) - please don't make me have to state the obvious again. I'm not sure if getting rid of the banlist would come as a result of all that; it's probably easier for us to handle our own affairs on a case-by-case basis like we already do. Regardless everyone should reread what Ace just said here. | ||

The change is good, at least partially, in my opinion. Everyone can decide if they want to join certain games or not. People can host invite-only games if they want to play with "different rules" or whatever (i guess that's still possible in case there is a "problem" for some people?). In general if people think there is too much personal bm then there probably is. It also means something needs to change. Quite simple. | ||

Not that I'm a great or active player anymore but I kind of stopped playing games and when I do occasionally join one it's usually because of a specific rule set that limits posting and has a stricter host, usually when Ver hosts a game. | ||
