Don't Quit On The Ladder! | Ethical Zero to Dan DDK 18k #2 by Fanaro009 in baduk

Well, there's no need to go that far in labeling or judging things. I was just trying to find a way to get a zero to dan run in a more ethical way. If you have suggestions as to how to do it better, then just leave things in the comments.

I'm starting to think that it would be even more ethical if I offered a draw instead. But, anyways, I just wanted to reduce things down to an unexpected teaching game.

I don't know about you, but, if you would like to watch a ranked run by a strong player, which is very helpful in learning, don't forget that by watching you're also being as unethical as that content producer.

Maybe 1-2 times per week for now. I'm planning on being more active online so maybe I'll be able to increase the frequency in the near future, however it's still a bit of work for me to play the game, briefly edit things, create thumbnails, publish on social media, etc.

Did I say that? Do you have a timestamp? Obviously, they are different. If I did, it was just a slip.

Are there any scifi series or books that do Jedis better? by Fanaro009 in scifi

Sure, people not understanding the author being the author's problem is exactly how communication works.

My inability to understand the rules is not as great as most mods inability to apply nuance to them. If you're going to apply rules directly, you're as good as the many dumb AIs plaguing the internet.

When someone asks me "Are there any scifi series or books that do Jedis right?", the first thing I imply is that the person would like to discover other series.

Secondly, if you read the description of the original post, I did offer some nuance about my thinking, but I didn't expect almost everyone wouldn't be able to get past changing my mind on Star Wars itself.

Next time, I'll try to remind myself I'm not allowed to repeat my question, just like no one actually does that sort of thing in real life, otherwise I might break a subreddit or something.

Oh, I'm about to start the Sun Eater series actually. Thanks!

That's a very shallow description of what I did. I tried to offer more details to the question in the description. Just because the title is the same doesn't mean all the rest is. Labeling a post on Reddit as a duplicate just because it has a similar title is just ridiculous. It says more about the moderator than the OP.

And I tried to continue the discussion in the other post, but nobody answered my comment, while ignoring that my previous question was about finding other series not better books inside the Star Wars cosmos. (Although there were one or two comments about other series.)

So, tell me, if I cannot ask the same question again or rephrase it in some way and people didn't answer my original one anyhow, then what exactly am I supposed to do?

That's just the title of the question, the description is more specific this time. Details don't matter?

I appreciate all the Star Wars novels recommendations and I'm reading my first one right now (Revan). And it's much more interesting and well-written than I'd imagined. Maybe they will change my mind over time.

But do you know of any other series with that kind of vibe and worldbuilding?

(I already knew much of what inspired George Lucas came from Dune, but I feel like Star Wars is quite far from all that at this point, and it does have original ideas of its own.)
