(There's probably something interesting too be said here about the ways these norms change in the shift from human message board moderation to algorithmic moderation and the relative integrity of the semantic structures required for efficient moderation)

Like, for example: technically saying "I'm going to kill you in Minecraft" isn't a death threat but it obviously *actually is.* Are death *wishes* currently made in that spirit now? Probably not. But they were at one time! The norm is deprecated, but not based on nothing.

Like I said it's probably overly conservative: this norm has its roots in response to *actual* attempts to skirt e.g. forum rules in a kind of "in minecraft" style "I'm not touching you" thing.

Right, but I'm saying the latter was regarded as a plausible form of the former. Like saying "people in this town don't tolerate that": like "people in this town," the "someone" in "someone should kill you" might actually be the speaker (or their immediate proxy)

This is, to be fair, less of an issue now that the dynamics of posting online have been altered (specifically: a much reduced expectation of consideration for one's audience, especially in a "comment" or "reply")

In the early days when the (perhaps overly conservative) proscription of any talk of death online was being discussed, the consensus was that even indirect exhortations posed a risk of *inciting* violence. Sort of a "who will rid me of this turbulent priest?" thing

Yes, this changing is a feature of the hypothetical

Unfortunately the TFR can't handle the chilling effect this would have on procreative sex

Also he got them with what was basically a Bugs Bunny gag

Unfortunately this is the wrong image

There's some examples in the QTs: things like loading the dishwasher incorrectly, leaving laundry on the floor, not cleaning the bathroom, etc. It's ostensibly complaining about "gross men" but it's actual purpose is to remind *women* that doing these things makes them defective.

The closest thing you need to situational awareness is popping DPS cooldowns when the raid leader sounds like they are getting anxious

Sure, but it operates on an audience of women, not an audience of men. This rhetoric is designed to provoke a sort of OCD style anxiety: THESE practices are easy and normal for all women. You don't want to be a defective woman, do you?

Causal relationship is inverted there.

No! This isn't true!

Okay that is not why it is called teabagging

The -vania is a second data point which establishes it as a genre. It is the genre to which Metroid and Castlevania both belong. It would be analogous to calling roguelikes "roguehacks"

An intelligence which obeys direction is a spirit, not mana. ASI should be mana.

I've talked about this ages ago but a lot of the "weaponized incompetence" talk from women is actually a way for women to police *other women*, not men.

Seems like the first one is just having a bit of fun (and is also correct)
