    As someone who’s not used these things, what’s wrong with a basic handshake to establish the comms channel?

    “Hey, are you listening?”

    “Yes, go ahead.”

    Isn’t that all this really is?

    Seems a weird thing for people to be uptight about.

    Perhaps I don’t really understand - looking at the world news community on lemmy.ml rule 1 seems to be about only posting links to news articles. None of the things on the mod log screenshot look like news articles. Isn’t this the mods doing their jobs correctly?

    The OP’s situation seems completely different to this and it’s definitely a problem - what am I missing about the rule 1 stuff though?



  • Yes, just wanted to contrast the reception they got. Bethesda games don’t generally attract as much ire for the bugs. People expect them and tolerate them (to an extent). Cyberpunk 2077 was a totally broken mess according to the internet, while the Elder Scrolls are the greatest thing ever.

    I had crashes to the desktop about every 4th area transition in Oblivion and it still didn’t bother me too much, since it had just saved and took less than a minute to get back into the game.

    Some bugs - even total crashes - can still be put up with just fine.

    You guys should really think about changing your voting system.

    Our voting uses something called a Single Transferable Vote. You can rank candidates in order of preference - last place gets eliminated and any votes they got are instead transferred to each voters’ next preference. Repeat until there’s only one left.

    It cuts out most of the stupid games and you get to see people’s positions more honestly.

    In this case it’d let people vote for an anti genocide candidate and still indicate that they’d prefer Biden over Trump.
