When is the best timeframe for us to get off this and onto something decent?

Why does is the text after /linkdiscord in this announcement gold?

@lyicx#13033 And the horrifically bad compression of the wallpaper that came with whatever theme you tried to use. For reference, this is what the wallpaper is supposed to look like:

Earlier today Lyicx sent me a screenshot of what appeared to be his main computer running Windows 7.
However, it turns out Lyicx is a man of deception. As it turns out, he was attempting to deceive me into believing he's using a decent OS. Unfortunately for him I was able to see past his deception and immediately called him out for using Windows 8.1, disguised as Windows 7 to give the illusion of a good OS.
You can see the full image here:
Just thought people should know this before voting him in as our ESL.

@billy7oblos#12999 ?? are you trying to say that lgbt people are more prone to poverty
No. I'm trying to say that depression in people who are LGBTQ+ can be caused by factors unrelated to being LGBTQ+.
-
Quote
@billy7oblos#12991 well lgbt can cause depression in some cases like trans people might have depression without discrimination.
You should take into account the possibility of the depression not even being related to LGBTQ+ at all, like for example economic struggles (poverty), living conditions, or the loss of loved ones.

@billy7oblos#12985 if we could prevent something that causes depression then we should no?
-
LGBTQ+ does not directly cause depression. The problem is not LGBTQ+ itself, but the factors leading up to the depression, sometimes influenced by them being LGBTQ+ (e.g. discrimination and abuse towards those who are LGBTQ+) but other times it's not. Wouldn't it be better to prevent the discrimination (and the other factors leading up to depression) from happening instead?
-
Banning LGBTQ+ isn't going to fix that, and if anything is more likely going to do more harm than good.
Edit: Some other thoughts came into mind after posting my original reply

@billy7oblos#12981 LGBT > discrimination(will always be there) > depression
Not all depression is caused by discrimination in this regard, however there are a lot of instances where this is the case. I don't understand why this is the reason why we should ban it though?
Edit: Thinking things through a bit more

@billy7oblos#12976 are you denying that trans people and lgbt people are commiting suicide because of how they are?
I'm not denying anything. You have repeatedly implied that the suicide and depression rates are proportional to the increase of LGBTQ+ and have on numerous occasions implied this is due to a causational relationship:
Quote@billy7oblos#12863 I would say depression in the western world is because of many factors, sexualization and accepting LGBTQ are just some of them
@billy7oblos#12975 well for trans people especially, trying to pretend you are another gender your whole life would probably take a toll on your mental health.
As I've said before, you have little to none evidence that backs up what you're attempting to imply.

@billy7oblos#12971 you are very very very wrong is saying this
https://www.healthline.com/health/depression/gayThey only have a correlational relationship. You have failed to prove anything along the lines of a causational relationship. Correlation =/= causation.
-
This is easily your worst one yet.
-
@lyicx#12867 You don't see me complaining on a public forum about it.
-
Boo hoo. Go back to bed.

I find it ridiculous that she was banned for making fake messages. She clearly didn't know it was against the rules and judging from how vague the rules (including the one she somehow broke) are, I don't blame her. You're banning her because she made a bunch of joke messages with little ill-intent.
Everyone who was banned for the incidents should be unbanned. Clearly the rules are the problem, not the people who "violated" them. Is this really how we're going to decide things around here? Using vague interpretations of vague rules?
Vouch, by the way.

@fleshly#12796 Twice.
The first time it was for being a prime informant for UYScutix back in 2017. The smoking gun for this case was when I worked with Cyro1999 and UYScutix to abuse a known quirk in how the server verified admins at the time (basically you could bypass admin verification if the server was in online mode) to gain unauthorized access to administrative commands.
The second time was when I (regrettably) obtained Nathaniel's personal information through third party means in mid-2020. Although I had good intentions, it didn't matter anyway. I was additionally permanently banned for this, although I appealed when I got the chance.

@redeastwood#12781 I don’t really believe I am, if a new user joined and saw an announcement that said "Void is a polish cow", what would they think?
I'd think they wouldn't really care. It's not like it's imposing as an official announcement (such as on Twitter) or anything like that.
Quote@redeastwood#12781 You're right in saying that if done in game, the user would be smitten - but if done repeatedly, they would most certainly be banned.
You're correct - however I don't see why you'd ban someone for having a laugh when admins literally do the same goofy shit with the /announce and /rawsay commands.

@redeastwood#12779 it is formatted in such a way that users would not know that this message was posted by Rianne.
I feel that you're making a mountain out of a molehill here.
Quote@redeastwood#12779 This is quite literally impersonating the entire server announcement system, something that I deem a subsection of conduct policy 1D.
You can do this exact thing with /me by nicking yourself as [TotalFreedom] with the same colors, and then sending a message with similar formatting. At maximum you'd be smitten for this. At minimum you'd get told to stop it.

Still lasted longer than their shitty cars.

@Miwojedk#12462 GOAT Admin?
Nobody is. In my eyes, there is no "best" admin, only good ones.
Quote@Miwojedk#12462 Favourite Admin?
Kash445, an old friend of mine and a mentor. During my early days as an admin, I looked up to him as a role model.
Quote@Miwojedk#12462 Best owner?
Mark for sure. He led the server for 7 years and the server peaked under him.
Quote@Miwojedk#12462 Favourite owner?
Seth. He helped implement a bunch of policies that from my perspective, made this server better. He cared a lot about this place and did what he could to keep it afloat, even when things were rough and when it was at his own expense.
Quote@Miwojedk#12462 why is ur profile pic like that?
I find it hilarious.

Billy has since edited his post, so here's two previous revisions that I screenshotted (one from another tab I had open and another from when I was writing a previous reply):
Quote!
!
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 it would be more -smart and easy to read- if you just put your points down and didn't quote each sentence in the paragraph
Then you'd probably interpret it as me saying it applies to all of the points in the paragraph. Not worth my time and to be frank, it's easier to break down each point that way.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 These are not who i used for defining morals, just showing that the same conclusion can be reached by nonreligious people.
It's not helping your case.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 yea but in that statement i didn't
You did, actually. You tried to make it seem like the two were as equally bad, adding onto the original implications from previous posts.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 you did change what i wrote in a quote but i see you changed it back
I have no idea what you're talking about.
The edited post looks exactly the same as what it looked like minutes after it was created.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 a dead animal does not need to consent because the moment it dies it becomes an inanimate object
You completely disregarded the fact I noted it didn't matter if they were dead or not.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 also what about letting an animal rape you - is that moral?
Rape is rape. It's not moral, regardless of who or what does it.
I see what you're trying to do - you're trying to set up the stage to imply that animals raping you is as bad as someone gay raping you. Yeah, nice try.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 Don't try to make this about consent because its not
Oh, it is. Animals can't consent to being fucked. Humans can. That in itself is a major difference that you specifically asked for in your original reply.
Quote@billy7oblos#12750 Why is homosexual acts different from sex with dead animals
@billy7oblos#12761 absolutely, but why should we not stop something that is bad and is not biological
Because it isn't bad and your reasoning for it being bad has been debunked on several occasions.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 because it has higher std's
Heterosexual sex is equally likely to spread STDs. Having straight sex isn't going to reduce the chances of getting an STD.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 there is much less ongoing violence towards lgbt people in the us than in the KSA so i don't really understand what you are trying to say here
Violence against people who are LGBTQ+ isn't strictly limited to Saudi Arabia.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 Ill accept that, but what about the depression rates
The depression is caused by either:
- Abuse towards them for being LGBTQ+
- Issues not related to being LGBTQ+
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 Non argument, homosexuality is immoral, and i have factored in the possibility of them being killed (27 people were killed in the KSA in 2020)
You only mention Saudi Arabia. What about other countries who ban it?
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 everything after this point is doing what you did
From this point onwards, I will only be addressing the "points" that are actually relevant.
Quote@billy7oblos#12761 i called their behavior degenerate
False - You directly called them a degenerate.
Quote@billy7oblos#12728 cope lmao. "shit like this" has been practiced for thousands of years and they still had lower suicide rate. I hate nothing more than the guilt tripping. Every single time degenerates try to blame their problems on others.
@billy7oblos#12761 i wouldn't say i devalued them
These statements say otherwise.
Quote@billy7oblos#12728 Please just look how twisted you have become, you identify as: furry, bisexual and transgender.
@billy7oblos#12728 twisting yourself like that is pretty bad, for the person and for the society.
