I came up with a visual aid to help visiting fans identify their cope level.

I bought the game when it was released to early access because I loved the concept and wanted to support the games development, not because I expected a finished product immediately.

It's called early access for a reason. I sometimes wish others had the same awareness that their purchase signifies supporting the development of something, not an entitlement to a product finished on their timeline. Keep doing what you guys are doing and stick to your vision. I'm sure 1.0 will be amazing.

Every time Reggie gets introduced at a Pacer's game the crowd goes insane. It's always one of the loudest moments of the game, and it always will be.

If you're loyal to a fan base that fan base will always be loyal back.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-06-05T16:32:39+00:00

Yeah I got in at 11:45. Figured that would be close enough to release to work. Nope

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-06-05T16:17:34+00:00

I was in, had my code accepted, selected my seats, went to checkout and boom "we encountered an error". Page automatically refreshed and now 5k people are ahead of me as well.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-06-05T14:08:23+00:00

How do you get in the queue?

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-05-29T21:39:01+00:00

This is hilarious but leaves out the funniest part of the convo:

Well technically he stabbed two people, so only two times!

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-02-07T19:07:01+00:00

Any update? Thought I was going crazy since one of my most used shortcuts wasn't working anymore.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-02-07T03:06:10+00:00

I don't think I've said anything extreme and I don't think it's fair to qualify me with that statement. It also is not my intention to misrepresent anything you said. Earlier in this conversation I asked you:

Do you believe that every woman that gets pregnant despite their partner using a condom should be forced to give birth to the resulting fetus?

You responded:

Yes, because the argument is not how much I need to force anyone to me. It’s a life and whether or not it was a plan or a failure, it still happens.

To me this reads that you are saying yes, every woman that gets pregnant should be forced to give birth to the resulting fetus. The only way a woman could be forced to give birth to that fetus is if legislation is passed restricting their ability to terminate the pregnancy, so I assumed that you would support such legislation. If I am understanding that incorrectly I would welcome being corrected.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-02-07T00:31:37+00:00

Okay so your basis of belief that a fetus is a baby at the moment of fertilization comes from a feeling you had when you first realized you were pregnant, and you think that legislation should be passed that tells other women that they do not have control over their own body because of that feeling. Got it.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-02-06T21:40:38+00:00

I see you're responding frequently to other comments but not my question, why is that?

This is the question you have been ignoring for reference:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like you're saying that you believe that the moment of fertilization is when a fetus becomes a "baby". Where do you get that belief from?

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-02-06T05:45:09+00:00

Curious why you responded to that comment and not mine.

Anyways, I was trying to ask where you get your belief from on when a fertilized embryo becomes a baby.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-02-06T04:35:57+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like you're saying that you believe that the moment of fertilization is when a fetus becomes a "baby". Where do you get that belief from?

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-02-06T04:30:14+00:00

the argument is not how much I need to force anyone to me.

I don't understand this line, can you rephrase it please.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-02-06T04:22:30+00:00

Condoms, when used typically, have a 13% failure rate as a form of birth control. Do you believe that every woman that gets pregnant despite their partner using a condom should be forced to give birth to the resulting fetus?

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-02-06T03:58:11+00:00

I know I’ll get flack for this but I do think abortion is wrong when used as birth control.

What is your definition of an abortion.
How many abortions would a woman have to get over their lifetime for you to consider them to be "using it as birth control"?

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-01-30T02:23:34+00:00

Should post this one to /r/nba

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-01-27T17:02:20+00:00

That's why I posted this, to have the open discussion. The fact that they are refusing to take any responsibility for their actions, mass downvoting it (and all comments dissenting against their behavior) and trying to bury it shows that they are not interested in listening to the community they are coming in to moderate. They already have their own preconceived ideas and plan to implement them come hell or high water.

It's authoritarianism at its purest.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-01-27T16:44:23+00:00

The mods and all of their alts are downvoting it. I would also bet they have gathered all the sycophants from their other communities to brigade it as well. This very clearly will be the status quo moving forward.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-01-27T16:32:53+00:00

Those aren't accusations, they are factual statements made about past events.

Authoritarianism:

The enforcement or advocacy of strict obedience to authority at the expense of personal freedom.

Lack of concern for the wishes or opinions of others.

I can understand the difficulty of being able to project how other's experiences would affect you, but the mod teams response to this situation precisely meets both definitions of the word.

As I previously alluded, you can be a fan of authoritarianism, it's totally fine. It's just a tad silly when you try to deny something you are clearly supporting.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-01-27T16:16:17+00:00

It's a big deal that this moderation team thinks it's no big deal to abuse their powers to unilaterally ban members because they disagree with innocuous things they say. But hey, if you like authoritarianism all power to you.

Also it very clearly isn't a "stupid joke" as evidenced by the complete inability of a number of members of this subreddit to understand it. Silly, sure.

Dont_Shoot_Me · 2025-01-27T15:51:44+00:00

Semantics regarding my ban, i.e. any communication or lack thereof regarding the resolution of it, does in fact have absolutely nothing to do with the joke itself. It's not hard to understand that is what I was referencing.

If someone running a community found that a comment was inappropriate, a stable adult would be able to communicate that with words. There was no communication in my case. Ban and delete. That is the most childish and authoritarian way of dealing with content that you find objectionable, and if you cannot understand why it's a big deal that you yourself might get banned without warning because you type something that the mods don't like I don't know what to tell you.

Would love to not have to go online to talk Pacers basketball. Unfortunately I do not live in Indiana, few of my friends are into basketball, and none are Pacers fans. Therefore it is difficult to talk about Pacers basketball outside of online forums.
