alexalex303 Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 We're all playing an M rated game. If we can't handle a couple of twitch memes, then I feel that the snowflake emote's place is well warranted. 7 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padpilot Posted November 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 haha that could be so true. just thought it might help negate any bad feelings go back into the game. Fair play though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Carter Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 I agree, I've always thought it was an odd decision to add these. I'm as bad as anyone else and use them a lot, and I understand we are playing an adult game but these emotes do seem to contradict the idea of having civil discussions. There are so many cases where a faction will brigade someone's comment/post and spam the chromosone reaction instead of giving an actual response. Inb4 people start doing that in this thread 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Done it myself as well, but it's probably not conducive to a more community friendly feel. Like/Dislike, Funny, Sad, Angry.

Xoza Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) Reactions should be simple and straightforward, without the 'meme' which most people don't understand anyway. +1 Keep it simple. 7 hours ago, GOAT said: Like/Dislike, Funny, Sad, Angry.

Mopop Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 +1 I used to do it all the time with the pepe emote but then I realized it wasn't productive and was toxic. We should all stay cool to each other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrus Raven Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 +1 Don't really care about the reaction, but the ableism behind feelschromosomeman is pretty disheartening 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skizee Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 I've come up with some reports in the past all being dismissed about this issue, at the time I reported someone for some sort of anti-rp which the person got issued with something, him and his friends went through all my posts giving me feelschromosome that lead to my super negative rating on the forum, not because of what I comment, just because a group of angry friends oocly decided to start the harassment. Forum rating shouldn't be decided by reactions but some other features like publications (useful ones), activity, etc.. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on people's reports, it's on their suggestions, it's on their regular discussions etc.. If you're stopping people from contributing to discussions or even posting altogether because they worry they aren't gunna be taken seriously, that's shitty. The forum is for those posts, no? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaltyPython Posted November 8, 2019 Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 (edited) Considering we have a rule regarding "ooc insults" and how we should treat each other with respect, having a reaction that tells someone they're retarded seems contradictory. Listen, I know it's a meme and all, but really, what other point is there in these reactions other than insulting someone for whatever opinion they have? I do admit it can have its place in IC threads or shitposts, but outside of that, I feel it should be removed. Especially reports.
