What? The entire population doesn't read Pratchett? Obviously exterminatus is required.

Or the passing out of free books..... nah, I like that "Scour all life from the surface" option better.

Why scour all life from the surface by shooting books at them?

Bleah, that's what I meant to say, I meant to imply we SHOULD do so. That's what I get for posting at 1:30.

Your ideas intrigue me and I wish to purchase any propaganda you have on hand.

Every single thread on this forum quickly derails into one or two posters posting *hilarious stuff* about dwarfs, exterminatus, or whatever else for several pages. Toady needs to get moderators. or at least janitors.

Looks real unprofessional guys.

This seems more accurate from my perspective.

Also, addressing the actual post, most of us are not professional forum posters. How would I go about becoming one?

I meant it makes Toady look unprofessional, because he has a sloppy website.

Imagine being a programmer, and you live off of donations from people. Now your website is 4chan.

How much money is that really going to generate? Not as much as if the forum was semi-classy and could stay on topic for at least 2 pages, that's for sure.

(also, removing the random bigotry that occurs in threads would be cool. It's pretty tiring reading a thread in the suggestions forums about guilds and suddenly someone cracks out the "fucking americans and christians are retarded. kill em all".)

Barely if ever seems to happen.  It seems far more usual for the Japanese to be the targets of such racism...

Well, it's not, that's the thing.  Threads do sometimes leave their topics, but there has been far less super weird stuff since the fall of VN.

Well, this is a rant thread, so it's not going to get derailed but if this continues someone is going to get banned. So I'm not putting any view on the subject matter forth but this: stop. This will not lead anywhere good. If you don't like the place, we won't object to you leaving.
