Hey! I sometimes have a hard time parsing tone over text. It seems to me others do as well, since I've seen a bunch of people commenting on the levels of irony on hexbear.
While we're all supportive of tone clarifiers, we don't want to use /s because that would turn this instance into Reddit. I sometimes think that sentiment is silly, but I can see where it's coming from and in general I agree with it.
I would however like to ask that we implement a rule so that the question "is this a bit/are you being sarcastic?" Has to be answered with honesty, if the person asked answers. Like you don't have to answer, but if you do you have to be honest.
Do you have any particular comms youd like this for? List them, and if I mod any, I'll make a thread tomorrow putting it to a vote (its 2AM here and insomnia is a fuck so please remind me).
Haha yeah I've been on the same train for a while now myself. I've started journaling and then some light stretching half an hour before bed, and that does a lot.
I don't have any particular I was thinking of, I was thinking it would be site-wide like the disengage rule. In general I find it a bit hard to keep up when different Comms have different rules, so I try to just think of them all as general rules.
But I appreciate the sentiment, and if nothing else happens I'd love to see it implemented in your Comms at least, though I'd prefer it to be site-wide.
