some people discussing the discord in hostility topic:

Idk, I think we've mostly agreed that there aren't any secret conspiratorial cliques/circlejerk out to push away any new people and create a permanent, static group of "the cool kids." P good progress from page 1 if ya ask me.

There are def tight-knit groups in CI but not everyone is tight together because more "us vs them" drama/politics goes on than fun talk, splitting people into two "alliances" where you have to pick a side and then you're marked for life.

Ey in my defense, ive contributed where i could. Most of the drama about the discord is personal beef from months before I came back to the site.

great contribution. 10/10. really clarifying your point pump. 5 stars

making a thread saying "everyone is hostile" is def gonna spark hostile discussion lmao. its like making a topic w/ the word "gay" in the title, you'll attract the gays

whoa, nice contribution bro.

Im not gonna respond to any of that quote blobs bc 1 formating gore and 2 idk any of that situation. What I can respond to is this blurb. In any case, I can't really criticize the current state of the Discord server itself, because I haven't been there in a while, but the forum does feel too connect...

Its been almost 30 minutes and no one has responded. That means I win right?

https://i.imgur.com/y71B32E.png Even people in the discord don't agree on all of the in jokes. If I asked two people which in jokes were bad and which were good, I'd probably get two different answers because everyone has different interests and gain different entertainment from some memes over oth...

How dare someone be silly and make jokes? Chao Island discord is SRS BIZNIZ AND NO MEMS ARE ALLOWED. That means NO DR. FROG. NO TODD. NO HYPER MAN. ONLY SRS BIZNIZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. if anyone in the chatbox so much as cracks a SMILE THEYRE EXCLUDED FROM THE CLIQUE> i mean what clique there si no clique a...

Maybe explain your point in more than 140 characters. This is, after all, a forum. Not twitter.

Then I guess I'll be the one here telling you to not be an immature child c:

Oh wait, but I need a reaction image so i can be the pinnacle of mature conversation...

EDIT: Found a relevant reaction image to prove I am the most mature

Don't be immature and no one will say anyone is immature.

The talk of "taking the first step" is on the part of the person who wants to be involved, not on everyone else to involve them. Like, with me. I dipped a while ago to focus on my own discord server, which was building up, as well as school and stuff just keeping this out of my mind. When I came bac...

Playing video games competitively, running a discord server, and looking for a job take up all of my time. I guess those count as hobbies.

If it makes anyone feel better, this is the least hostile thing of the day.

Yeah, a scientific paper needs peer review to make it into a reputable journal. Shame that there are less than reputable journals that also get studies on the news.

Speaking honestly here, do you mean to say this wasn't a peer reviewed study? Let's dissect this. a majority of studies are poorly peer reviewed because there's no glory (or money) in being the second person to discover something, and everybody gotta eat. EDIT: Also to add on, most studies on the n...

Scientific studies are always bull **** unless its got actual peer reviews.

Adding onto the back of Crazo's post, talking about video games is good. talking about anime is good. talking about someone being brainwashed or stupid someone is for having a political disagreement with you is bad.

Hopefully unsurprisingly, its possible to dislike or disagree with something without there being a huge conspiracy on why you dont like it.
