General Chat

so only heavily engaged conversation is allowed?

i sincerely dont mean to be a pain, but ive noticed many instances of a conversation flowing slightly off-topic of a specific channel and it being shut down for that, despite the fact that it remains impassioned discussion of the games we love and would soon turn back to the channels purpose

[SoraAlfheim 69]

Slightly off topic isn't a problem. It's when a off-topic convo goes on for too long that the mods step in.

Which was the case over in Kingdom Hearts 4 Chat just now

[Mys. Carrot 1]

it was all related to yozora, but again: thats not nearly the first time ive seen this

[Aqua_Wren 11]

It really isn't that huge of a deal to click on another channel and then continue there.

And they're seperate to keep things organized.

[Mys. Carrot 1]

yes, but when does that ever happen?

[SoraAlfheim 69]

And just tag the people you were talking with to bring them over there

[Aqua_Wren 11]

All the time?

It's one mouse click away. You're not going to lose your train of thought or lose any serious discussion of the topic by simply moving it to an appropriate channel

[Mys. Carrot 1]

without fail, mods trying to limit these flows results in the end of discussion every time

[Limen 10]

Moving it to the right place also allows others who only engage in specific channels to join if desired

[HuntSD#7607 14]

like the other chats are not just for show, we made them for a reason

[Aqua_Wren 11]

Then maybe it wasn't all that important. You're advocating for complete anarchy and the channels being pointless, frankly.

At that point we might as well just have channel 1, channel 2, channel 3, channel 4, channel 5 without any organization to it at all.

[Mys. Carrot 1]

yall need to read deleuze

[HuntSD#7607 14]

if you dont like how we run things here, you can always just leave

[Mys. Carrot 1]

i explicitly do not, which is y i suggested u reevaluate ur goals amd how u achieve them

this is the stupidest reading i could imagine of what i suggested

[Aqua_Wren 11]

I mean, you're suggesting we just let people talk about whatever they want in whatever channel they want, no?

[Aqua_Wren 11]

That is exactly the result.

[Mys. Carrot 1]

no

[Aqua_Wren 11]

You're complaining that we occasionally nudge people to remain on topic, then.

As appropriate for a channel.

When it has veered off topic for a considerable length of time.

[Mys. Carrot 1]

people know what channels are for. we naturally take things to specific channels. u dont need to police that most of the time. what im suggesting is that the way u "nudge ppl to remain on topic" shuts down discussion both of the channels intended purpose and the allegedly unrelated one.

again: i wouldnt mention this if i did not see it actively harming discussion time and time again

[venommob12 2]

Yeah the format right now is a tad bit confusing
I thought the original format was actually organized where movies/tv and games were both separate categories
