Don’t think a pop up is the way to go tbh

#162

Or are these people of credible reputation

#163

I mean the options right now are:

  1. When you use it, it gets autoreplaced
  2. When you use it, you get the pop up telling you not to
  3. When you use it it goes through and people tell you to stop using it.
#164

I trust everyone here is discussing this because they care.

#165

3 is preferable.

or possibly a non-pop up message like when you try to post an empty post

#166

Ah apologies. I skimmed the thread, found only people disagreeing with the change.
Execution is probably the best substitute word.

3 imo, it won’t take long for people to assimilate. It’s just like when you go to a new site and have to learn their mafia terminology. Rarely is it consistent

Even when Nanook began starting the TK movement, people started picking it up and I would use the term in Nanooks games

@Ellibereth have you ever worked in a CRM tool with required fields? It’s the most annoying shit ever when you get popups saying “you can’t take this action because”… Usually results in whatever action is being taken gets done less frequently, which isn’t really the goal.

So, I am clearly for option censorship because I really don’t care what word gets subbed in when I want to demonstrate my intent to eliminate a player from the game.

  1. is the most liberating but it also completely defeats the purpose of ‘banning’ the word in the first place
    I advocate for 2. if people would like to see it no longer used here.

I can see the argument for the toggle.
It just makes the dev work more annoying. :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m in a Lady Gaga phase rn, don’t mind me
But yeah I’m new to this site.

#175

Really? I always assume people named and profile pictured after other people/ characters are alts LOL

#176

I actually don’t know, it depends how frequently I’m playing offsite at the time. My activity is sporadic…

Realistically, it probably won’t happen that often, but I think it’s one of those things that even if it happens 1/10 times, it’s super annoying considering that could easily be once per game day.
