The term itself is a joke, it’s something that’s used as an insult to people who complain about general social issues like racism sexism and what not. Calling yourself an “SJW” i found tends to bait out the terrible people into the open so i can see who understands the terms origin and who only use it to shoot down people who are against racism, sexism, homophobia and other types of oppression. So whether i’m SJW or not doesn’t really matter, as that term is really meaningless. I support social justice and am constantly involved in things opposing oppression, and i look for people who agree with me and aren’t terrible, because right now i always join the main lobby and find people who are just spouting racist stuff non stop.
You just admitted that you are intently trying to bait people into arguing with you on an internet forum where politics is completely third party. Not cool.
Not argueing, in no way am i looking for an argument as the above replies of mine would show. Instead people who don’t understand the term of “SJW” will skip my thread or reply to it with hate and attacks, while those who do would add me or reply in a nicer way. I have not responded to anyone that stated something dumb on this thread, but i replied to those who genuinely questioned my views and wanted to understand other things about my thread. Again, if you don’t understand why i’m looking for the type of people i’m looking for, why are you on this thread, i don’t go to some “anti-sjws here” thread and say “I’m sjw and i just happen to disagree”. I’m staying in my own thread and none of you need to post here if you don’t want to. But hey if someone is genuinely interested in understanding why my views are the way they are, i’ll reply, but if it starts arguments i’ll just end it. So far no one has really started an argument, probably because i didn’t reply to the ones that seemed like an obvious troll comment.
Can we just stop arguing, say welcome, and all go our seperate ways?
You sound like you either happen to be a magnet to people who should get banned or take some jokes way too seriously.
I’m pretty sure I disagree with your interpretation of the term but am unable to pinpoint the decisive arument right now. As long as I don’t have any objective arguments or find any attackable statement on your side, I can only let the different opinions be such.
I see no reason to. It’s not like we’re flaming or shitposting or anything like that.
I don’t really consider myself a magnet to finding people that use the n word in the main lobby and put up porn on the theater, its just how the lobby is. So i avoid it most of the time cause that’s been like 60% of my experience in main lobby, not to say it doesn’t have good people in it, i have found many friends in it during my play time.
And yeah i see the term “argument” differently since i’m foreign, and i consider what we had so far here as a discussion. A discussion i don’t mind having if someone questions my view, but i will immediately stop having it if someone starts using bad language, attacking me, start spouting racist or sexist slurs, or just otherwise troll. Cause i don’t see a point in trying to explain my opinion to those people since they don’t seem to really listen to anything.
omg
can i like this more than once
WHY COULDN’T YOU LET THIS THREAD DIE
U really don’t need to be here u know. In fact most replies here don’t need to be here at all. This ain’t a discussion thread, this is simply me putting up a sign saying i’m looking for people similar to me. Yall came here to troll or debate, yall are the ones that made this thread popular lmao, so why don’t you stop posting now?
this thread should be closed in order for that to happen
It is a public forum, so don’t expect your views won’t get challenged by someone. If you want to avoid debate, it’s best not to post anything.
Over 50 posts on an introduction thread is insane.
I think it would be neat if this thread could be closed.
It’s not that i didn’t expect that, its more that i didn’t expect them to fill my thread with replies and then complain for this thread having too many replies lmao. Like what did they expect?
Couldn’t they just remove the replies or ban the trolls from posting on this thread so that normal people could actually still say hello if they wanted to?
i don’t think that’s going to happen, but idk
Not like entirely from the forum, more like from this thread alone. If you minus their posts and my replies to them from this, you’d probably have a lot less replies here.
I saw one on the forums that had like 64 or something. And no one was complaining on that one being too popular. Clearly because it wasn’t infested with a bunch of people trying to argue their views.
Again i don’t get what the big deal is, what am i’m supposed to write. “Hi my name is this i play games pizza is tasty green is a nice color” I’m not really in kindergarten any more and i want to actually find specific people on this forum. I don’t see why wanting to filter your friendlist is an issue or a concern to anyone.
neh, more like critisism from people who don’t like the stuff this thread is about (i have no idea what though) and everyone wants to prove an argument, also the devs are probably too busy with Tower Unite to close this thread so we should all try to not get in a massive fight because the devs can’t have that as an extra
Hey i’m all up for it. I even edited the thread to be more informative and advised the few trolls to just stop posting.
As usual, people have gotten suspended for acting out of line and uncivilly.
I’d recommend you contact either of the mods to close the thread, just so that any ‘trolls’ can’t provoke anyone further.
OT: I’m happy to see you’re on the forums, we’re friends on steam. Feel free to message me whenever you’re looking to play or if you’re asking any questions in relation to TU.
