Also can you please stop moving threads to OT? Thx.
I'm kinda into it. I went through a whole bag of popcorn reading that "I don't like it" thread....
The threads were vaguely interesting in that looking-at-a-car-wreck way for maybe a second or two, but now they’re merely banal and tedious. And, no disrespect to the mods, I still don’t understand why OT is being made the dumping ground for these junk threads. Are they kinda ridiculous? In my opinion, yeah, but so are a lot of threads. Do some of the individual posters cross the line from reasoned debate to semi-hysterical, abusive ranting? Absolutely. But — to reiterate a point I made earlier — neither of those characteristics take away from the fact that the content of the threads is largely about the game itself. According to the forum’s own rules and standards, they simply don’t belong here. If the mods have a problem with them, the can fix the problem by locking them or curbing the behavior of the more abusive participants. Instead, they chose to “hide” the problem by disposing of the threads in OT.
Oh, well. Not to worry — eventually all of this nonsense will fade away when the event ends. I just hope the mods aren’t establishing a pattern that will be followed with future “crank” threads about the game’s content.

Already crossed that line, I'd say...
But, yes, THANK YOU MODS!
Sorry, they had to go somewhere.

Now I want popcorn...
Me too- and I was part of the thread! It has to be toffee popcorn though, none of your salty silliness...
Awww thanks @Turkey1010
Normal?

as opposed to cannabinoid buttered popcorn?
