It's time (Option to Hide other players Glamour)

[Krotoan]

What you're trying to solve is people voicing their opinion.

If you have additional thoughts or additions to what has already been brought up, I have no quarrel with those. However if what you have already stated has been taken past any of your own arguments or thoughts, why would you just repetitively post the same thing? Why would you want to read the same points every time? I go into these threads hoping people bring up salient points and then am disappointed when in order to get to some reasonable discussion we have to go through the same inane knee-jerk responses and hyperbolic fluff.

Almost every subject from every angle has been discussed somewhere on this forum but it isn't a wiki page, its a place of discussion and I for one am glad you can't "solve" that.

But when someone brings up an actual thread full of discussion about the current hotbutton topic.. why not spend the extra 5 minutes to search and read up IN THE THREAD YOU'RE POSTING IN and carry on from there instead of rehashing things that have been discussed to an impasse unless you have unique further thoughts?

I would also much rather take part in an active forum where sometimes things get repeated than a dead one with only a few active threads.

Nobody is ever going to stop repetition and I, yet again, do not expect people to forum search whenever they think they have an idea, but IN THE THREAD ABOUT SOMETHING you probably should take some time to see if your concern/idea/quarrel/question/objection/reservation/addition has already been discussed and take it from where it left off instead of "but why"-ing into the same loop.

I'm not a moderator and I'm not trying to be. I just wish we could discuss different and new aspects of things at least in the same thread about them.

You very much look like you're trying to be the forum police. All people were doing is posting their opinion or having a bit of fun, then you turned up like rain at a BBQ to patronise everyone and lecture us all on how to Internet.

The first thing I said to you is it was futile try and change how people use forums, everyone already knows they have search features, nobody uses them because they want to say their piece.

You can try to take the moral high ground all you want but when it boils down to it your telling everyone to stop posting unless they have some hot take that hasn't been brought up before. Telling people to stop giving their opinion isn't something I will ever support, especially on a forum. I dont care if its a point thats already been made, forums have been like this since the dawn of the Internet.

If you feel like I was scolding you, maybe you think you did something wrong? I'm not patronizing anyone, If anything I felt I pointed out many of the different ideas and arguments that were already made and brought up the fact that those had in fact been talked about and were available to search. Things you'd be interested in if you wished to contribute to the discussion and not, as you are doing now, spending several posts telling me NOT to state my own opinion. I have no power here. I don't expect even a % of the people here to read what I say since it's more than 2 sentences, but I will have tried and I have stated what I came to say.

Assuming everyone knows what you do is a pretty closed minded approach. Yes people want to say the thing they want to say, I also would like to not address the same points over and over again and the 30th time I hear "but if you remove glamours entirely everyone will look weird" when it's been addressed again and again I feel the need to say MY piece. Are you trying to silence ME now?


Or maybe.. just maybe I'm allowed my perspective and suggestions as well?

No.. I'm asking people to do minor research so that a conversation can continue instead of folding back on itself constantly like a yarn-ball. You wanna "me too!" then fine. Give your opinion, I don't say anywhere in there that you shouldn't. I am expressing distaste for answering the same questions and smarmy "gotcha" comebacks that constantly get posted like they're some sort of revelation when they're actually already moot.

And "it should allowed to be like this because it's always been like this" is circular logic and not an arguing point.

Oh cool, now you've turned into Sigmund Freud.

It's really simple, you decided to tell everyone how to use the forum, I called you out on it. The end.

We are done here, this is pointless now.

Uh huh. I'm happy you feel you've "won" the internet.

Have a wonderful day.
