I believe Kbin already fills that role either as a fork or at least as a similar platform
this would be cool, but I could see it causing issues for places like Memory Alpha, which have a really strict and well-defined manual of style and acceptable references. I frequently see things on other wikis that you’d never see on Wookiepedia, Tardis Data Core, and/or Memory Alpha, like fanart embedded in articles, links to YouTube videos, incomplete drafts without proper tagging, etc.
EDIT: Conversely I could really see it benefiting the smaller wikis, especially ones with lots of overlap with each other (all the various Marvel/DC wikis, the specific Clone Wars wiki separate from the main Star Wars one, etc)
Do you feel that the PCs actually pretty smart, but the DM is still making jokes like they aren’t? Or is it some of the PCs are using “oh I’m dumb” as an excuse to derail gameplay and ruin ingame plans?
I think people have lots of definitions for what constitutes railroading. I personally don’t think anything in the meme constitutes going off the rails.
In my view, if you build or plan the next session based on where you think they’re gonna go next and what they seem like they want to do as players, and then someone goes “Well can I actually just make a 90-degree turn off the road to the city that we’re talked about going to last week into these random woods instead of engaging with the hours of content you made for us,” you aren’t railroading them for going “sure, but I’ll have to pause the session here so I can put the time and prep into this that you deserve as players, or we play Dnd today.”
Matt Colville has a great vid on this, but I can’t remember its title. I think he’s done a few videos that talked about railroading.
The GM has the power to present a heist, but unless the GM is really railroady, the players have the power to make it a ransom, a demolition job or just ignore everything and join the circus.
This doesn’t sound contradictory to “planning a heist”. I guess I just took it to mean that the setup was a heist and that the punchline was that they had little control over the tone during actual play. I feel like ransoms, a demolition job, or joining in the circus fall within the “heist” aesthetic and narrative.
I really hate how interwiki navigation sucks on Fandom. Like, they’ve done all this branding and centralizing of the Fandom platform, yet I’m pretty sure they only fairly recently started logging you in on all wikis whenever you signed in on one.
Its all just to try and be some hip pop culture thing for use to “consoom” without any effort to actually take advantage of being a central platform for the repository of lore from across culture.
Okay and? Like, you’ve listed the problem, which I think was already known to anyone passionate enough to care about PeerTube and to want it to grow, do you have any ideas or solutions or are you only here to demoralize and discourage?
I’d really like for PeerTube to take off, especially with how YouTube/Google seem to be escalating the war on adblockers.
Did you like tell them? Have you been reporting it?
This is so important to know, because it matters if this is from willful negligence or simply because no one has brought it up and the instance admin(s) think it’s smooth sailing.
There is absolutely a segment of Mastodon users who behave like they do, and tbh I think there should always be small instances, but i also think this will be a great improvement.
About a year. I found it after cleaning up an event. Took it home, soaked it for 24 hours, and now it’s covered in stickers.
I keep hearing they are swamped and not many people, so if that’s really the case i hope this spurs knowledgeable people to join to help add these things.
Well hopefully some people here will see it and subscribe and it’ll build.
Ugh, me? Living in a SOCIETY where I have to PAY for things I don’t USE?! What’s next, paying for SCHOOLS when I don’t have KIDS?!
Kinda telling on yourself by calling it “drastic”. What exactly is “severe” or “rapid” about supporting alternative methods of transportation?
Damn, you really incensed a whole bunch of people who seem to like living in soulless, identical car-centric hells. What normal person thinks you expect “a sudden drastic change” from a silly comment like this?
such a good trick. Used it for years.
This would really light a fire under corporation’s asses to adapt for climate change…
This is the ideal. I think a problem also comes up because I think a lot of people (DMs included) feel like “peak Dnd” is when you could in theory, go anywhere and do anything your party wants, and you just need to review few quick notes and be ready to go.
