A lot of the most heavily advertised games are the ones people wouldn't play without addiction models or whaling hooks, ones that require marketing to get people on board.

I've been pretty insulated from ads for a good bit (by design) but what is that meme one again? Raid Shadow Legends?

I'm not here to debate the validity of cherry-picked portions of their statement. Feel free to respond to me in that thread on that topic. Then you might understand my rant about pointless bans here. I was fully willing to engage in a good faith debate on this topic in the place where it was happening.

I'm here venting and now justifying my vent to you. You were claiming I was uncivil, and I'm asking you to point at my uncivil statements.

As a sign of good faith, I'll point out that the debate on veganism wasn't being fairly input to the thread. The reason I gave half assed responses was that they were attacking people unjustly to begin with.

Veganism is a complex topic ranging from food scarcity to eating habits. I'm an advocate for veganism and participate in 3 vegan days a week. Both me and my wife come from heavy meat cultures and do not find it so simple a habit to beat.

But even when I pointed out they didn't know my stance on veganism, they were still assholes at a personal level.

So please go continue the conversation on veganism with the rest of the circlejerk where I am banned.

I would prefer the focus of this post be about how unrelated moderation is stifling this site to death.

Yup, this was it. I would appreciate if you included the snarky initial vegan response to the initial comment that triggered that chain, too. It would be more relevant than those other 2 comments of the random chain above.

Just saying if we are doing context, full context is best. Blaze already included a link, so it's not necessary, but this is the visual in this thread, thus is the most immediate attention grabbing version of it.

All very true. Our college kids have been an incredible guiding light on morality in our nation.

It's sad they have so often been met with fascist violence. My blood is still boiling over the events and Columbia and UT Austin this week.

Rude attitude is worthy of a ban? Why are none of the rude shit talking vegans in that thread banned? And the other dude has a screenshot of my statements. What are you saying was rulebreaking civility rules?

None of my statements were attacking anything except for racist ideology.

I have no problem admitting I was being rude, the initial topic was about people enraged by the slaughter of a dolphin, and some vegans decided that was the time to shit talk people's diets in response. I was rude to people being rude.

But I never broke civility rules and was never more egregious than the vegans I was responding to.

Seems kinda like exactly my point that being rude to rude vegans being enough reason to perma ban somebody from a news sub on this site, and how that will choke this site to death.

Hey, who knew you didn't make friends by shit talking to somebody in distress?

If your opening statement is calling somebody else combative and shitty unprovoked, you probably should not expect a friendly response.

Had to get on your alt to fit in some extra crying.

Yup. Or that's half of it. You didn't include the chain I'm quoting.

This is the second half of our conversation. We had an initial exchange where he wrote that bit I quoted to him.

I tried to take a screenshot, but im unable to view comments in the community now. I usually block communities after a ban so I don't waste time trying to interact.

If you want the rest of the thread, it's in that same comment chain with that same user.

I can't pull links from the responses in my mail or I would have put the link myself.

Do you cry in every comment?

Lmao

Sure dude.

Take your own advice before dishing it out. You can't even respond to me without having a meltdown.

I clearly laid out my points for you to engage, and you knew you couldn't handle it, so you ran away. Seems like I was spot on when I said you couldn't engage in earnest.

You didn't address anything I said. Ironically, you just had a foaming at the mouth meltdown because somebody is of a different political orientation than you.

My post had 2 political topics:

1. How much I hate the conservative endorsement of political violence against their fellow citizens.

2. I endorsed the moderation of the conservative instance on Lemmy as the best I've seen on this site.

You didn't address either of these points.

What about that statement are you exhibiting to who? Your bs being directly addressed?

You can't respond in earnest because what I said is true so you speak to an imaginary crowd instead as a coping mechanism.

Enjoy crying to nobody.
