I find the lack of humor disturbing. I’m told/observe it’s due to the plethora of native tongues, neurodiversity, timezones, caffeination and other variability hereaboots. Idiomatic expressions and deadpan, in particular, seem to set off the kerfuffles, ke?
In my experience, forum moderation is Sisyphus-complete and utterly thankless. The fact we have had this refuge that functions as well as it does for as long as it has, well, res ipsa loquitur. Thanks, mods, fwiw.
- dotancohen 5y ago> I find the lack of humor disturbing. I'm split on this. The occasional Monty Python reference in an otherwise informative post is terrific. But I don't want to see memes here all day, too many great Reddit subs were ruined by that. I don't know where the slippery slope starts, but I prefer the conservative approach.
- SwiftyBug 5y agoI agree. I don't know where to draw the line either, but I notice some kinds of posts allow for more irreverent comments than others. I think it goes by the "seriousness" of the topic.
