LL should stop supporting the russian language in SL instead of suspending me for suggesting that they should cease supporting it.

Second Life, fuck you to hell.

You know, I really hate Putin and hate his stupid war, but I don't think I agree that all Russian speaking people should be punished for his actions.
It's pretty simple: If you're not russian, don't speak russian

Also putin hasn't personal fired a single bullet in Ukraine. Hundreds of thousands of russian soldiers have, though.

Somebody screaming at me: #bombukraine today in-world is my limit.

I was mad the other day. This was a bit of a rant into the void, I guess.

You're right. This is good advice.

The war compounding with the autocratic way LL runs SL sometimes drives me up a wall.

I fucking hate the way the internet in general has become a digital gulag in so many ways. So much of everything is censored and watered down and then fed to an AI, regurgitated, and then served back up to us as a sort of bland colorless paste or something.

This site is a good thing for virtual words, though. You can largely say what to want, provided you don't go way too far. I should abuse this less, chill the fuck out more, and practice more healthy ways of exorcising personal daemons.

allot of life is about dealing with the hand your given. Success and happiness is dependent on how you chose to respond. make the best out of a difficult situation and don't let it define you.

By that logic, LL should not support ANY language, since groups of people from every language have gone to war, killed other people speaking other languages.

Iceland.

Iceland hasn't had any wars or supressed native peoples in a long, long, very long time. How hard can it be to learn?

A lot more gets censored by algorithms than people realize I think.

One thing with Reddit, I will often "open in new tab" on posts I want to go through, then I get distracted.

Then later, the post is removed. The comments are still there and you can reply, but the post is effectively gone.

Don't even get me started on how news stories on like, Facebook etc effectively disappear after 24 hours because the feed never shows anything "old".

In my opinion, this is a classic russian argument tactic: comparison to justify.

However, I think you're absolute right and I agree with you.

If your upset about my idea that the russian language should be removed from SL, please take solace in the fact that I would be perfectly fine with English being removed also, and have suggested doing so in the past (English is my first language but it annoys me that it is the lingua-franca of the internet). If I were the majestic monarch of SL, which I'm most definitely not, I'd be willing to remove both, plus any other language spoken by any country that has ever gone to war and killed people.

Conlangs like toki pona, Esperanto, Interlingua, and Interslavic could be used to great success in virtual worlds and provide a way for people to interact without nearly as much friction due to language. Obviously, nobody cares and this would never ever happen in a million years, but it's another idea I've had in the past that probably wouldn't have sounded so offensive. Probably, I should have suggested it this way. But I didn't. My bad.

Learn the difference between business and government before thinking such words mean anything.
I've using autocratic as an adjective here to describe how I percieve LL to be running SL. I think it works just fine to evoke the idea that a bussiness is being run like an autocratic state. There's aren't really any gramical rules in English that specifies how specific words must be used in terms of verbs, adjective, and adverbs to describe stuff. Yes, there are rules concerning articles, cases, an instance of gendered vocabulary for a single borrowed French word, and prepositions, though I find the latter of these to be extremely straightforward in comparision to Swedish. Sorry, but I'm not extremely educated, so you can either make due with my English, or we can just talk in Swedish, which I perfer when people like to correct my grammar and explain what words mean, because then I can acutally learn something. Here, all I can do is disagree and provide a wordy explanation, which is not so intersting and probably comes across as rather uppity on my part.

Also, are you the one I saw picketing outside Pizza Hut because they wouldn't serve foie-gras with roasted gerbil testicles?
No, that was my freind. But I'll tell them you said hi and that you disagree with them and believe that makes for a wonderful meal.

Klingon. The Klingon Empire has never invaded any country because it doesn't exist. Otherwise, quv Hutlh Holmeyvam.

I can't bite my tongue on this one. I am sorry, @WeFlossDaily, but your idea that any language should be banned from SL is fucking stupid - and that is what is autocratic. This entire thread is absurd.
In my opinion, this is a weak counter aregument. If you curse at me one more time, I will curse back at you, and force you to shoot me with the ban gun. I feel like I would have to do this out of principle. I'd perfer not to, though.

You could also lock or delete this thread. I can only assume you are interested to see how I respond your post. But this is really all I've got: I'm fine with banning all the languages if need be and switching to conlangs, even if the idea is absurd, and perhaps I could have taken a more positive apporch to the way I presented this idea. But I don't see any reason for why I should tolerate profanity being directed at me by you just because you are the site owner/admin. Banning me for saying any of this would only serve to reduce you to powertripping level of pettiness inherent to most Reddit moderaters who have no idea what grass looks like and moderate hentai severs of Discord in their spare time when they aren't busy redditing. Personally, I think more highly of you then I do Reddit moderators, as this forum acutally seems to permit free speech. But it's up to you. I do request that if you do ban me over any of this that you para RP it, using at least four well-crafted sentences and that you do it using the ban gun. I envision it as a .45 Colt with a wicked geam to it when it catches the light in it's metal. But any pistol you feel comfortable using is probably fine.

TLDR: Okej. I disagree and think you are being mean and that you should not be mean. Also, are you going to ban me over it? And yes, I was being serious about the para RP part at the end there.

I'm probably playing with a dead man's hand here, so I might as well make the most of it.
