This was covered in the previous thread. If you believe that your evidence is new and compelling in ways not covered on the previous thread, you just have to clearly and decisively say how and why it is different. I have been asking you to do this for days.
Sniper, for the love of God, what part of "chill your attitude and stop being so rude and combative" are you failing to get?
Not to mention, "stating the intent of the thread" is not the point, nor what I asked for. The intent of this thread addresses the same points you made, and were debunked...
Yeah, I couldn't disagree more.
If something is determined to be wrong, rerolling the thread is dishonest and disingenuous. If you want to argue the same topic and exact debates several times in a row, you are free to do so. Forcing others to do so is the problem, because I don't particularly...
The other problem with these kinds of threads is that we'll have to get everyone from the past thread to look at this one at well, which is an annoyance and a waste of time for everyone involved. There were a fair few staff members that disagreed previously, too.
Frankly, I don't think we...
You have literally responded to a comment calling it a rehash with the following:
Not to mention, the last thread passed for reasons completely different from your own. Your reasons were never accepted for either topic.
You can't lose a thread, and make a new one hoping different people will...
If the proof isn't different from the last thread (which you have not proven any noticable differences and have neglected to respond to repeated inquiries), then I don't need to repeat the reasons why the evidence is flawed.
You're right. This thread isn't the same as the last, but your...
Antvasima, I am opposed to the idea of people rehashing old threads and hoping for the vote to turn their way. That encourages people to simply retry threads until the opposition doesn't show up and they get lucky enough for the thread to pass.
I asked Sniper to explain to me why this thread...
So you are saying that these are new (fansite-translated) quotes that back up your claim as to how Plates grant power to Pokemon? And again, please, watch your attitude.
And how is this different from what you have already proposed? Translated text walls aren’t new, and it being 2 AM for me doesn’t make it easy for me to tell one translation wall from another (that I read and disagreed with months ago, and would rather not revisit if I didn’t have to).
Stop repeating text walls, especially when you’ve admitted repetition from the previous thread. Tell me, very simply, what is different in terms of evidence and content.
Yeah, no. I have no tolerance for people retrying threads until they get the result they want.
I would like one good reason to not close this thread, given you literally just admitted that it is an exact repeat of the previous one.
I see a lot of whataboutisms being thrown about here. Just because we have other egregiously large tiers doesn't mean it is a good idea to make more.
If you want to argue that the cutoff "shouldn't be arbitrary" then I simply ask that you are consistent when making this change. Our system works...
The reason for the cutoff is for clarity. What is the reason for cutoff in any tier? To not have one massively large supertier that contains way too many characters that can't be compared.
I disagree with the proposal, mostly for reasons already stated.
I think that's fine. The comment was inflammatory but not outright anti-lgbt, just anti-lgbtgettingtheirownmonth. Still rude and against the rules, but not as bad as previous offenses. Not to mention, the comment was on his own wall and was deleted soon after posting, so I'd like to say he...
I get the feeling that this is a young and rather poorly-spoken user from his message. While he is entitled to his beliefs, and did at least go on record to say he doesn't have anything against LGBT people and only dislikes "wokeness" (which could mean literally anything, tbh). That being said...
If nobody has any objections, I will be deleting any further back-and-forth arguing over this matter that doesn't involve putting new evidence on the table. The facts and screenshots are present, arguments have been made, now is the time for a decision. Period.
Do any staff disagree with this?
The evidence I see above greatly contradicts this.
I don't know about all of you, but I, for one, am very tired of RVT being spammed for egregious amounts of time over the most obvious and glaringly dumb issues. This is the most cut-and-try, textbook case of vote manipulation and it's actually...
The evidence is, to be blunt, absolutely staggering and I genuinely struggle to see why this has been a debate for so long. I don't think it's unreasonable to ask discord friends for help, but that just isn't what this is at all. These posts are clearly the epitome of "I agree FRA" and the...
I will briefly interject to make it very clear that we absolutely shouldn’t count kudoing an offensive comment as “half as RVR worthy.” Aside from that, I understand your point.
However, I still hold dislike for the idea that “calling a staff member” an insult like this (to quote AKM) deserves...
Really? Historically, we are remarkably more lenient on far more severe things. For repeated behavior, perhaps, but that isn’t a baseline rule this wiki has stuck to.
It is a reasonable interpretation on its own, imo, but doesn't necessarily imply that anyone besides Chara would scale. I do get the idea behind it, but the OP didn't make it clear how (even if we accept the interpretation of multiple timelines and Chara destroying all of them) it would scale to...
Frankly, with the variety of reasons, rationales, and directions the supporters of this CRT are taking, it would do us a lot of good for Wasp to truly clarify what he is supporting, why, and who scales. The OP itself only truly proves that there are multiple universes, but doesn't really go into...
