Logic

I wasn't telling you to void, I just meant if you have a post to delete.

I can see that still being problematic, but im not invested enough to say why. Honestly. Just edit your post to say void, its no big deal

-1 This gets shot down everytime. Stop trying. You can edit a post to say void, and the title to say void, which keeps the logs intact for mods so if necessary they can warn/ban me-Whoever is causing issues

+1 if possible

+1 I saw you guys talking about it, makes sense to have it

He wanted some Dark Force User Slots instead of B1 commander

I'm not well versed in this because I only played for the beginning of sith under Joah. At first it was really really fun and I loved it, but quickly it became problematic because of Rules of Engagement. Resulted in me telling my entire battalion to not roleplay with Sith because they only ever wanted to RDM or annoy us. So I'd be all for this if it follows BH rules of engagement, like Civilian until otherwise proven. +1, I want to see what'll happen I also have a general question... Would this take the place of the "battalion" that founders were asking if it should be added? (can I english?)

Quick everyone -1 me instead of dumbing, I need -1000 rep

I agree, I think the rep system could be reworked, instead of people losing rep fora disagree/-1 they should get 0 rep added (no rep change) and only positives should change the rep amount. Also to go with it, delete dumb entirely This kind of thing would be a suggestion but it will get dumbed really hard

Name: Logic Bug: Negative Rep (Specifically Dumbs) Are not effecting rep total Location of Bug: uhhhhh everywhere? Date/Time Bug started occuring: Yesterday I think What is this effecting: My road to -1000 rep Severity: 1 Test this by dumbing me, posted with -61 rep Feel Free to test with other negative reactions. I don't know if they contribute or not. (posted at 6 dumbs and still -61 rep)

-1 the only use I can see is the Halt and beckon.

This. also, f o r m a t

I actually understand what you're saying and I kinda like it... So right now rep is calculated with a simple formula: Rep+1 or Rep-1 This would basically complicate the forum rep. In simple terms if you have 75 rep, it will be Rep+.5, if you have 125 rep it will be Rep+.25 and so on and so on, basically turning it into a logarithmic curve, slowing down some of the rep numbers (Meaning you don't need to add more star colors!) And it would actually apply the other way too. So if you have super high rep and get dumbed, instead of being rep-1 it will be rep-2 or rep-1.5 Yay math coming from stupid person Its complicated and makes no difference really. I think if anything changed about rep it would be expiring negative rep, because sometimes people just have a bad day

brain go mush mush :)

So if someone finds it offensive, you're basically telling them to suck it up? This line needs to be drawn so that everyone feels welcomed. Real life has no place in roleplay life

Jediism is INSPIRED by real world religion and does not rely on stereotypes or accurate religious details that can misrepresent those who believe in it. I SAID IT SO MANY TIMES NOW

OOC events are allowed with specific clearance. So no, this does not affect them

I said. It. Was. Not. Offensive. But it WAS Failrp. I also mentioned how this is semiunrelated to this scenario. All this rule does is make it not okay to perform stereotypes or imitate a group of people regardless of if anyone finds it offensive. And if the saleem situation tells us anyhting, staff doens't seem to know where to draw the line, because nobody told them to stop.

Yes. This is going in circles. Because I have to reexplain everything to each one of you apparently. 1. I'm not emotionally defending myself, I am drawing anecdotes to show how this is not a baseless rule. 2. What he did was not offensive but it was FailRP. 3. That quote was my signature, which I was not aware did not update as I had wished. 4. I do NOT care what you find funny. Keep it to yourself or to others that you KNOW will find it funny. Respect the fact that others may find your humor offensive. 5. This in no way sets the precedant you are claiming. In fact that makes no sense to me 6. I ALREADY ADDRESSED THAT TAKING INSPIRATION FROM A REAL WORLD RELIGION IS FINE BUT DO NOT FUCKING EMULATE OR MISREPRESENT IT. I said that in the original post. Quoted it, told you that in discord and said it in a post above. What this rule does is allow for an AOS before a problem occurs. Want to use religion? Then don't be a fucking dick and just get creative. Im done responding to stuff thats already been addressed. If you don't get it with any of my explanations then you don't get it. There is MORE than enough information here to justify this miniscule change.

Clarifying in the rules that making fun or misrepresenting a religion is not okay is not the way to make the community more inclusive? Yes I probably should've AOS'd you for failrp quoting the bible and shit. My bad for giving you a warning first. Ok thats fair, I'll change it, I actually thought I put idiot so as not to be offensive. Guess I forgot to save it. Thank you for pointing that out @Mitchell I understand what you were doing was not offensive. However what you were doing is dragging stuff into rp that shouldn't be there. I, like many others play this server to escape my life stresses. I don't talk about much of my life to anyone on the server, maybe some anecdotes about my classes or shitty profs. Maybe a joke about how my parents used to treat me in ooc. But I genuinely come here for an escape from everything. Politics, my crazy religious ex, who is my neighbor, my dad threatening to kill my cat or some government official. I don't want any of that shit in my roleplay. What YOU were doing is already against server rules under failrp, and the reason I called it out is because of that and I'm sure theres other people who don't want to see real world religion in their roleplay while they try to escape their reality just like me. What I am suggesting is almost completely unrelated, because I KNOW you had no bad intentions. But you did bring to mind how it actually isn't against the server rules to get on a BH job and represent religions. The only reason the saleem situation ended in a racism ban is because they were also stereotyping a race. Theoretically under the current rule set anyone can get on a bh and act like a bunch of christians and begin using stereotypes to misrepresent them. Thats what this rule will prevent. And if this interupts your fallout rp then get creative with it. Instead of copying a NV character, change it up to be starwars. Instead of jerusalem say alderaan, instead of God say The Spirit of Spotchka. Like it is so easy to come up with something else. As long as it remains unoffensive.

I can see this point in a multitude of cases, but need I remind you that the people found guilty of the saleem situation thought what they were doing wasn't offensive? This suggestion was actually something brooding in my mind for a while, since the saleem issue, some people, no names, continued to feel justified for a period of time after, beleiving they didn't actually break any rules just because one bad apple started to get into the offensive stereotype and rp suicide bombed or something. And im going to be totally honest. This server is not a very accepting environment to begin with, theres history of people getting bullied off over sexuality, gender, or even age. With the addition of bounty hunter, its only a matter of time until someone gets offended by a misrepresentation of their religion and then gets bullied off the server for having gotten offended. We, as a community, need to be better.

I know I had a stroke mid sentence, but cmon read my last blurb. (Edited the stroke I had on og post)

Edited to be less abrubt and rude. Trying really hard not to "get shitty"

Read the whole post not just parts of it, I literally address and explain that inspiration and creativity is fine. You are basically saying "fuck it if someone gets offensive that doesn't matter" at least thats how I understand it. If your roleplay is completely based on a real world religion then you need to reevaluate the way you roleplay. It is not creative to misrepresent or emulate stereotypes of anyone. I am not circumventing anything, sinister told me to bring it here. And the reason I wouldnt have given 2 shits is because I refuse to roleplay with anyone taking on a real world religion because it can very easily end up being offensive. Bible passages should NOT be quoted because people unfamiliar with this random fallout guy may feel misrepresented and offended.

You would assume so. But it became a whole debacle trying to explain that to people.
