This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Remeber when greentext was something interesting or toughtfull? Instead of fariytales for incels?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 6 days ago

Not in the last 15 years.

Honestly, no. It was exactly this bad in the early '00s

Using tinder like a ranked FPS is surely something

How is it an FPS?

Personally, I don't like the fact that every team-based video game uses ELO, a system designed for a 1 on 1 game, to determine an individual's skill.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)

While Elo (and side note: it's a person's name, not an acronym) isn't perfect and systems like Glicko-2 are better even for 1v1s, is there a better system than Elo that could be used to rate players in team games? Especially if there's a mix of pre-made teams and random teams thrown together by matchmaking?

Edit: extra bonus if it can be applicable in games that have both 1v1 and team game components where there might be a desire for some form of bleed between the two. (e.g. AoE2 where your starting Elo in one of them is based on your Elo in the other, if you've played a lot of one type of game before trying the other.)

It stands for female humanoid and is exactly as dehumanizing as it sounds

[–] [email protected] 57 points 1 week ago

It was femoid originally but anon got even lazier.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago

I think that the part being dehumanized is the one that uses that word.

I think it's supposed to be some kind of derogatory label for women, but is really just an identifier that the person using it is a worthless being whose opinion is as relevant as a gnats thoughts on the economy.

I think this is an unrealized thought experiment by op. I don't believe the Chad he imagines has any relation to the man most woman are looking for.
