I miss the times when alien visitors would come up with somewhat believable names. "Elvis Presley" was a stretch but people bought it back then, "Tom Homan" is just lazy. At least my guy Aal`Vis (as I knew him) put some effort into his costume and mask.

If he's such a communist, why does he have capital letters in his name?

This map is doing flavor gerrymandering with D.

Thought the title said "couch" at first and this was going to involve Kirk and Vance with one or the other (maybe trading places at some point?) in the cuck chair.

The .ml is a warning and indication of bullshit to come.

Guy knows his base (if nothing else).

Too many weaselly people-pleasers making the decisions so they back off instead of risking a little apocalyptic super-war. Now we get this "I'm not touching you (with guns and missiles (yet))" bullshit that drags on forever instead. Enough foreplay and edging, it's time to fuck.

The risk is that you'll end up with people who seek out mod roles for the money, spin up legions of alts (more than they do now) and do all kinds of bullshit to game the system. If there's a flat payout, a top mod could inflate the team and double(+) dip to make sure they get the pie slice they want. If it's activity-based, run a handful of bots to break the rules at a time of your choosing and get whack-a-mole points.

If only certain communities qualified for paid moderation (based on activity levels, for example), this could add an incentive to sabotage other related communities and drive traffic to the one a bad actor controls. If all communities qualify, maybe we get massive fragmentation as everybody decides to try and carve out a niche for their mini-job.

That's just a start, lots of other ways it could go sideways or be manipulated. I think we're better off with people who want to keep the spam to a dull roar and prevent heated discussions from getting too out of hand because they want to provide people with usable communities instead of dangling a couple dollars in front of them.

Noob, did you even try to knife it?

Cry more, little baby Bibi.

Any guesses on what our "American patriot" friend ArtemZ means by the last character of his name? I've got my suspicions.

Federal Research Public Access Act of 2006, perhaps? (Archived)

I'd rather go the more natural route of overeating until I can hide my valuables under the sweaty folds.

Does this post title show up with the word "zionist" halfway through on your end? It's not present in the source headline. Not sure if there's some kind of edit sync issue going on.

WISH HARDER, IVAN.

Wish harder, Ivan.
