Yeah no. Please just tell us your name. I tried searching up "anikom15" and I couldn't find you unless your name is "Ani" and you're from Turkey. Also your profile doesn't say anything.

 

In other words, you're the one missing out if you're not going to tell us your account name lol.

I'm just going to let everyone know that the Unofficial PureZC Skype Group isn't a place to debate and especially not a place for baiting people. It's a place to relax, have fun and just casually chat. We don't need the place to be heated up. We have the forums if you want to discuss (or debate) video games. That, or please just keep the debate out of the group.

 

Which leads me to another thing. Always listen to a mod. We are moderators for a reason, we wish to put everyone and the discussion back on track. It makes it harder when you ignore us, or retaliate with anger or something completely off the wall. If you wish to continue to be in the group, take all this in wisely, because we won't be dealing with these lightly anymore.

to what extent is debate? one can debate something like "is it always of the suck to make fiction, with 3 male protagonists and one female as the token chick? is it a dangerous formula that creates sexism" to the forbbiden sex-religion-politics-health practices lifestyle"

Okay, I definitely need to clear the air here. When Shane was talking about debating, he was referring to the more aggressive form of debating, or at least debating that leads to aggressiveness between the two or more parties, where people are basically "yelling" at each other, are blocking all other types of conversations occurring in the chat, and/or are basically flaming, trolling, attacking, and/or antagonizing people with whom they are debating with. Debating in a more educational and formal way is more acceptable in the general sense, unless the topics talked about are identified as against the rules by the discretion of any or all of the moderators.

 

There have been few true debates in the Skype Group, but when they occur, they tend to be more of an aggressive type of debating in which people are flaming each other rather than a civilized and formal type of debating in which people are being friendly to the other party or parties and the conversation is not leading itself to chaos, anger, or aggressiveness. We, as the moderators, are not out to censor debates in any way, but rather we are making sure that if debates happen they are taken in a mature and civilized manner so that no one is personally offended, antagonized, and/or hurt in any way, shape, or form.

how does Purezc people and chat mod define "trolling"? I've been here and there and drama, and even people call "anythign that offends them that is contradictory to the current topic at hand is trolling".

 

so if someone thought the feral camel of Australlia should stay and live and the humans be killed, and I call them a horrible person, the camels should be fed to the starving people and zoo animals. that makes me a troll. somehow. and not, trolling, like tricking someone into viewing Zelda fanart of of XXX subject involving Tingle and Ganon., and then saying that they like it and are sick freaks for it.

[anikom15]

IMO stay away from using informal vocabulary such as 'flaming' and 'trolling' in any serious context.

In very small communities like the Skype group there is no negotiation. Listen to moderators.

Trolling is defined as intentionally or purposely starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory and/or extraneous messages with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

I suppose you are correct about not using informal vocabulary, but I just wanted to make sure that everyone understood what I was talking about.

 

And thank you for stressing the point about listening to moderators, as it is true.
