Policy Discussion Revivals

Post by Vekter » #742505

The relative success of Wallstation has shown us that some things that have historically been blocked here (ie non-human heads, Ligger being banned) can be quite popular. What's one thing you'd be willing to implement from the Policy Discussion forum that has usually been blocked by other head admin terms?

It wasnt really blocked, but I liked the Bagil players table proposal. I think its cool to have a space like that and would help to improve our community. Im sad that it got closed, I dont know why it was but it doesnt seem to have been from a place of ”this sucks”. I expand more on why I love events in my platform but I think bagil playerstable would be a great avenue for map events and such.

It kind of died a death but my day 1 policy change would be loosening the guidance on antag tokens

I like Justice's proposal in regards to a rule 2 precedent, which got blocked by the current term: viewtopic.php?p=730595#p730595

It's weird to have the rules directly address one, and only one, specific way of preempting antagonists. Evidently, it has generated some uncertainty regarding what the spirit of the ruling is, which I see as an issue.
I have a confirmed grand total of 1 merged PR. That basically means I'm a c*der now. 8-)

when everyone goes into peanuts already set on what their opinion is ekat's posts are a breath of fresh air
might be more true to say they redirect the dogpile most of the time tbqh, like diving heroically onto a grenade

I want to canonize pun food names as valid felinid names.

I don't particularly care about felinids but I think the naming quirk is fun.

Unironically based.

I feel like lore-wise its impossible to treat felinids seriously anyway.
