This is why it's useful to always have a gas mask or respirator. If this is the kind of things that can happen, I'd recommend finding a cheap GP-5 mask in working condition. Be aware, the filters contain asbestos but pose no risk with later models unless damaged. If you're not comfortable with that, get a normal respirator with charcoal filters. If you can't afford these, you should carry a nice, thick towel. In WWI, people urinated on cloth and covered their mouths to resist chlorine gas. It worked better with normal water, as the urine resisted most harmful chemicals but created an irritant. This method, however, doesn't work very well with tear gas, so prepare to focus on running away if you need to follow this approach.

Man, I used to love Space Chimps.

Won't need moderators if the site is shut down

Not a problem, Biggie Cheese man.

That's puberty, my friend. You'll start sounding like a girl next.

All the rules were why I decided not to join the public KSP community. It's bureaucratic in my eyes. Rollo's points sum up my opinion very well, the forums function well as they are. They aren't exactly the nicest place in the world but that's what you get when half the oldies bail and the community is rebuilt from a completely new group of people, creating a really jarring juxtaposition between the opinions of each side. Also, it gives us less work to do. ?

If you're considering breaking rules it isn't exactly a good idea to warn us moderators before-hand.

@Slime You could ignore it instead of telling us to stop this debate.
What? I never said I cant deal with it. I dont want it shoved in my face.

To be honest I don't like it. There's this kind of atmosphere around newer users that's just pretty toxic in my opinion. There are people who make content that is just, well, bad. And that's not inherently an issue but the real problem is that these same people tell each other that they're doing great. They give those people the mindset that what they're doing is just fine and there's no room for improvement, when that should never, ever be a mindset anyone should have. There are always ways to improve, and if we don't believe there are, no one grows. This probably isn't something many people have noticed (or cared about), and who knows, maybe I'm delusional. But there's a term over in the world of marriage counselling (I know, now I sound like a complete lunatic), "codependency", a very well-known concept of extremely dysfunctional relationships. Just a thought. Again, I'm probably just crazy.
Something I've also noticed is that a lot of the newcomers aren't really treating this like a forum. I've noticed a lot of people just feel like they have to reply with something, or that they have to make multiple status updates about this one thing. For example - I'm not going to call anyone out, but - there was a rig that was posted recently and the first reply is basically "oh, okay." That doesn't help anyone. It takes up space that could be used for constructive criticism, or even nonconstructive criticism I dunno just say something if you're going to take the time to reply. I'm probably being picky here but this seems like a nonproductive atmosphere that I don't want to come to this forum. It almost feels more like a Discord in a sense that you can come here and hang out, as long as you at least say something. You don't have to bring new conversations to the table, you just need to show that you exist. That's not necessarily a bad thing for, say, a chatroom, but this is a website built on starting new conversations. We don't care if you're present. No one will notice you if you say "oh". Your reputation is built entirely upon what new stuff you bring to the table. If you had a hundred Fad wallpapers that were exclusively two white dots on a black background, yeah people won't respect you at the time. But if you make one original, good wallpaper after that, your entire reputation will be built entirely on that new thing. We don't say "Yeah this wallpaper is good, but you made a Bendy and the Ink Machine rig a while back sooooo" (Your reputation doesn't have to be built on creations either, I was just using it as an easy example. Starting good conversations is also just as appreciated). No, that's immature and we don't do that.
Wow look how long that turned out to be. I don't even know if this atmosphere exists or not. Sorry about that.
TL;DR: We need to stop encouraging bad creations, no one will grow and criticism is always a good thing. We also need to remember that reputation is based on good presence, not just presence.

Heh, I did it.

I haven't touched MI in years and I'm not even that active in the community. Look at me.

Let's see how this goes

I think imma puke

Manual programming is not nonsense. Frankly it's a little sad that some people refer to it as 'manual' nowadays. Visual scripting is often unpredictable and limited in what it can do. Programming is a useful skill, high-paying and not at all that hard. I suggest you continue.

Ayyy, pretty proud to be a moderator now.

As far as I know, Mine-imator 1.1.0 wasn't made by liberal transgendered Trump-haters, it's safe for you, don't worry.

yeah my older car doesn't have seat-belts or a stereo
but I like it, it works, and I don't need any new features

To be fair, Ethan is right. +1
