I like how the comma between shitposting and shantytown makes it look like there's a town called Shitposting inside the greater region of Shantytown.
I would like to be the first to welcome everyone to Shitposting, Shantytown, Hawkspace, USA.

Ok, i first thought this would be mspa's serious business 2.0. I' still skeptical but whatever, i'll give it a chance.
I'd like to proclaim myself leader of the shantiest of towns. (That comma was supposed to be a colon).

can shitposting, shantytown be moved to this subforum?
RE: Why did you guys turn "shitposting, shantytown" into it's own subforum? - Infrared - 10-09-2014
That would be like moving a turd from your old bathroom into a new one.
I approve.

These communities are sort of like "shitposting" inside of the greater "shantytown." Maybe we can theme ourselves after the Parisian street urchins in les miserables and add "little" before all of our names. I am "Little Wheateaux"you can be "Little Coldbleauded" and we can get rich by acting cute as a distraction while one of us picketpockets others.
Alright, but who will drive the getaway car???

Isn't that General Chat, though? I'm confused.
Not directed at you, it's just that your quote was a convenient one to cite.

Wheat basically wishes to bring the IRC experience to a forum format.
Which is a bad move on the universe's part. Universe, how could you let Wheat do this? I bet Shitposting, Shantytown will be everyone's new place of residence and be the General Chat Crap Thread for this subforum.

would it be acceptable to make another subforum in this subforum
RE: Why did you guys turn "shitposting, shantytown" into it's own subforum? - ICan'tGiveCredit - 10-10-2014
Yeah, it can be the Archaeopteryx subforum. In which lizard-luverz and bird-embracers can fight to the death
RE: Why did you guys turn "shitposting, shantytown" into it's own subforum? - Gatr - 10-10-2014
is that a challenge i see?

Yeah that was my first thought, why not "change" the rules of regular ET, it's not like people were using it anyway.
I dislike this background color, it's too tacky and makes my avatar look bad.
E: It's actually not tacky i just dislike change.

I mostly put this subforum together with Wheat on the grounds of "fuck it, let's give it a go." If it becomes indistinguishable from Gen Chat and people want to merge it back, let's merge it back! Otherwise let's just see how this joint pans out.
It was never my intention to have any particular rules about post quality or the like when making ET Gen Chat; if the rules seem to reflect that then yeah the rules need to be changed. If it's just a culture/perspective thing though I'm down for more casual shit-shooting. My trouble is I get all self-conscious and only feel ok doing it when other people are doing it, because I lack initiative
RE: Why did you guys turn "shitposting, shantytown" into it's own subforum? - Infrared - 10-10-2014
It's because it's badly cropped.
It is my wish that we eventually merge this into gen chat, there really is no difference other than "just be more casual". I don't get why people were so pressured to make "quality" posts. Who cares? We all know we don't shitpost for the sake of posting and we all know exactly what kind of shitposts we hate.
But whatever, if this makes the forum more active i'm more than up for it.
Please allow us to switch from this theme to the original, it's ok that this is the default one for the subforum but i'd like to switch.
RE: Why did you guys turn "shitposting, shantytown" into it's own subforum? - ICan'tGiveCredit - 10-10-2014
I think it would be good to switch back as well. So I can change my settings and turn EVERYTHING INTO BUZZARD without anyone knowing
WHOOPS.
RE: Why did you guys turn "shitposting, shantytown" into it's own subforum? - ICan'tGiveCredit - 10-10-2014
I Definitely knew that.
Definitely not
but being able to have All the forums be the same color whenever I'd like is
well
yes. Yes is a very good adjective for this type of feeling.

Switching to "Eagle Time" doesn't do diddly.
RE: Why did you guys turn "shitposting, shantytown" into it's own subforum? - Schazer - 10-10-2014
I'm messing around with it now and seeing if I can't find a workaround.

Meanwhile, do we have a topic for the Reptile Throwdown yet? This seems like pretty important business to me.
RE: Why did you guys turn "shitposting, shantytown" into it's own subforum? - SleepingOrange - 10-12-2014
We can start a "SeaWyrm v Garuru Slapfight" thread, that'd pretty much be the same thing.
