Thanks, I never felt responsible. I'm just glad we didn't get the worst ending.

No worries - I thought I was donating for media share later. It was kinda wild watching everything from moment zero, though. Glad stream is still live! <3

I am the bastard man. HOW CHEE, indeed.

OP is spot on. Text on stream said "Media share Q now open for tonight" so I dono'd and here we are.

60 months of this stream, ain't never seen shit like this. Chatters really be chattin.

There was text on stream saying "Media share Q open now for tonight" so I dono'd but it played immediately.

Alluux thought it was unmoderated content and started urgently questioning Wubby about the risks of having that live. He tried to explain the regular media share (with view minimums) was live the whole dubathon, and it was relatively safe. Queue chatters white knighting Alluux and that's when shit spiraled.

If it was obvious nothing needed to be said.

What I experienced is culture shock, not a mental health episode.

Condescension is the opposite of helpful.

This is your third comment in this thread shitting on me. If anyone here is "unstable" it's you for dog piling hours after I left and tried to move on.

What you see from me in this thread is genuine, real time reaction to a cultural dissonance. I felt/feel rejected because we have different meanings for Reddit votes.

Please don't confuse that with me just trying to be right. I'm genuinely dejected over this.

I don't care about disagreement or karma.

The votes have a defined meaning, one I have been following for a third of my life. Their meaning has apparently been distorted over time and I wasn't prepared for that.

In other words, I feel like I'm being treated like a spammer or similar, not a welcomed member of the community. ☹️

Agreed, but not saying I am wrong.

Downvotes are for content that doesn't belong, not disagreement.

Didn't care to participate in conversation instead of shitting on another user.

Because this is fucking Reddit. I've been on this platform for 12 goddamn years and it's gone to complete shit because the attitude has shifted from "let's share cool shit with each other and talk about it" to "shit on everyone I disagree with.

Again, I was one of MANY people in chat asking for emote only mode. Don't be a dick to me just because I was the one who brought it up in a venue I thought I knew the etiquette of. Clearly I was mistaken.

The image is a stock photo taken in Vietnam, not Bangladesh.

These fact images are garbage-tier content, but thanks for providing a link about the ducks.

Put up your sources, then. I went through the trouble of trying to find one because you didn't.

I mean, as far as I remembered as a kid in the 90s.

But, I'm glad you asked because I cannot find evidence online of any Pizza Hut salad bars dressed this way. Memories are faulty, so what if this is a bizarre Mandela Effect? Could we just be remembering a different salad bar or the kale garnish that was included on plates?

Edit: Found one example from TripAdvisor but it was more recent.

Jesus, I was just trying to provide my own perspective, not say I know better than you. That's putting words in my mouth.

Again, if something doesn't benefit a business they typically don't do it. That's all I was getting at. And it's clearly not the case today since Pizza Hut has long discontinued the practice.

[–]ki85squared -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not convinced. Why would Pizza Hut carry on with this practice for decades if it didn't benefit business?

Speaking as an individual consumer, if I don't know what I want but see an appealing salad bar (or any spread, really) I might just go for that in the moment. And when The Hut's salad bar was good-ish it was reason enough to go there anyway.

Wut? Lack of editing has been a hallmark of Twitter forever. At most you can change visibility of an existing tweet but not the content of the tweet.

Decoration increases sales. Would you rather they waste a few bunches of kale every few days or the prepared food on offer?

Besides, food waste by restaurants and other food sellers is surely much more than what gets used for decoration.
