HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

i'll post this in off topic too if you want but imma post it here

I simply cannot state enough how utterly misguided, asinine, plain stupid, dead wrong and much, much more this rule change is. If someone is too lazy to simply type the word "swearing" in after pasting a link into chat, you're either just incompetent, don't care for the rules, or as previously stated, overly lazy and/or forgetful.

The administration, be it Parax's, G-man's, or this current one has always been the biggest stick in the mud when it comes to swearing, with a near no-tolerance (might as well be no-tolerance entirely but, my god, we allow the word crap!) level of enforcement towards it as if it's demon spawn. So why in the name of all that is holy would you allow free reign on links containing swearing? Is it so difficult to type 8 letters after you click paste that an entire rule change that is bound to spur faux-political garbage is necessary? (By the way, if someone adds the "you love that wiki politics stuff" argument, I just gotta commend you on an original, creative argument quickly) simply so asinine I literally cannot comprehend it. I'm not smart enough.

Also, gotta say it, nice touch-up with that "abuse won't be tolerated" bit. Thanks for clarifying that.

I haven't even gone about the way you went about legalising this.

Let me get this out of the way, though. I'm all for abolishing the SSC and having a spot for user input or something along those lines, but the way this damn wiki has been shaped, we are a democracy for some reason. Meaning, doing something that isn't democratic is heavily scrutinised, and rightfully so. Again, just abolish the damn SSC if you're gonna be this way. Do it. I encourage you.

I think I've probably said enough. But to summarize, this rule is completely pointless, counter intuitive, stupid, misguided, unnecssary, and more.

Am I Goldvane now?
