RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Whistle - 11-10-2021
I'll have you know that JUPES...
is currently not by my side at this moment.

And even that's perfunctory at best. Mental health issues should be dealt with through consulting a trained professional, not through self-deprecatory/self-loathing humor or through depending on online friends who are unable to help you in any practical way.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Whistle - 11-10-2021
Yeah, and I've noticed that it's basically become only TheWhistleVents in there. Like either I'm leaving nobody any space for their own concerns or that everybody else is improving.

Well, you don't just see a therapist for an hour and never see them again. Therapy usually takes a very long time to resolve someone's issues. It isn't easy, and it isn't a quick fix.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Kennifer - 11-10-2021
Calling a helpline if it's really serious is also a good idea. Random internet people, whether friends or acquaintances or whatever... are really really not qualified. Venting is fine and all well and good in the thread for it but if it's super serious self-hatred... yeah. (And if it's not, the jokes are... prooooooobably not in good taste anyway? Unless it's super-mild stuff like calling yourself boring or something I guess)
And off that topic and on the one of cats, Dusty's cured up on my bed yet again.

I wish I had the willpower to do that. But then again, their intentions probably aren't genuine. Did you know that Ted Bundy, a serial killer, used to be on the suicide hotline?

Your conclusion does not follow from your premises. A single serial killer working on a suicide hotline does not taint the entire service.
Yes, it's obviously suboptimal, because it's a hotline.
And admittedly, we have no experience with them, so we can't say whether the people there tend to be sincere or not.
Just... yeah pls think through these statements pls
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Kennifer - 11-10-2021
Yeah and like... serious vents might be better in the serious threads. Or use a tone indicator or something if it's a joke so it's less awkward if someone wants to post lighthearted stuff?
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Whistle - 11-10-2021
I thought from the context it was kinda clear that it was an extremely self-deprecating joke??? /gen
With the broken emoticon :bigggrin: ->
thing.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Kennifer - 11-10-2021
You uh... you kinda deprecate and talk about yourself a lot though? Like calling yourself "weird" a lot and stuff. So... not really as obvious even with the emoticon.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Guma - 11-10-2021
No one here really knows how to respond, especially since this is a publicly accessible thread that's meant for general, casual convos.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Whistle - 11-10-2021
I think I tend to be pretty on the edgy-jokey side most of the time. 75% joke, about.
Hehehe....
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Kennifer - 11-10-2021
Yeah maybe less with the edgy/self-deprecating jokes though?
They're still awkward to try to figure how to respond to.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Whistle - 11-10-2021
What's the Warning Level, by the way?
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Kennifer - 11-10-2021
Other than "a thing that makes me paranoid mine's gonna go up" I don't know.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Whistle - 11-10-2021
Huh. I was worried it was something exclusive to me.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Kennifer - 11-10-2021
Nah, we can only see our own but I think everyone has one. I'd guess admins and maybe mods or whoever can hand out warnings can see everyone's.

There is a fuzzy bee-filled croissant on the bed...
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Whistle - 11-10-2021
Get away. It'll sting you.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Guma - 11-10-2021
Not these bees.

Mods can issue warnings which come with warning points. Depending on the warning, they expire after a certain amount of time. That percentage is how many you have out of... the arbitrary number we pick to be 100%.
There's a whole system we can set up with automatic punishments for accumulating points, which we've largely not bothered with. Like, there've been five actual mod actions since TC began and literally nobody has ever had more than one warning on record at a time. It's really meant for larger boards.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Whistle - 11-10-2021
Huh.
RE: LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread) - Kennifer - 11-10-2021
The bees in the fuzzy croissant are purr bees :3
