#EfU and you

[Vlaid]

I've been pretty reluctant to reply to this thread and I'll tell you why.

There is this strange internet tough guy routine in #efu, that even the notion that maybe we should not spew every last thing we're thinking into #efu is absurd. That censoring yourself a bit at least for the sake of maintaining some civility for the less thick skinned or the newer players to give them a positive impression when they stroll into our server for the first time is some kind of admission of tiny-penis-syndrome. I think most of us "vets" should be mature enough by now to vent or say our funny mean things to each other in PMs or in back channels if you really need your fix of the salt mines.

I'm not saying I'm not guilty of it. It's a community norm issue, not an issue with individuals.

What it comes down to is...does it really take that much effort to just not say whatever shitpost thing you want to type into #efu?

It's pretty weird how the tone in #EfU changes when Howlando is logged in vs when he isn't.
