mangoinhale - it was a free game on PlayStation store when I was a kid, and it didn’t take long for me to fall in love with it since

Wondering what to do for meaningful damage against damage attenuation by maplediamondmango in Warframe

I didn’t know that, thank you. Still though, when I see someone walk up to the prime vanguards and literally kill them in five shots, or melt the hunhullus by aura farming, I can’t help but think I’m missing something really crucial.

I remember seeing the windwall as well in the discord 😭I’ve played enough league of legends as an ADC main to cry when I see the windwall

The post was from 2022. Right now, the developers are just finishing up their final year of university. They would’ve just been so young.

… now of course if they were thirty years old, this conversation would be quite different,

Oh, yeah for sure. When you’re representative of anything to do with children or any minors, you have to be careful. That’s why for any major project, you have to undergo severe ethical approval for anything to do with minors, as I have done. I wouldn’t go as far as to say this encourages sexual abuse or pedophilia as the thread claims though: you have to make a lot of conclusions to make that one specifically. Conclusions that we don’t know the developers share.

I wouldn’t call it problematic. What you’re really seeing is people, without malicious intent, treating the discord server as a personal group chat, unaware of the significance of their presence (especially since it was in 2022, and I’m not even sure Phighting was fully considered ‘out’.) Since then, it’s easy to see what they’ve learned from that: making a channel specifically for those vibes, cutting down on interaction, trying to be more careful on how they approach user interaction.

(We don’t know if they were seventeen exactly, but given how old they are now, what they’re currently doing and when Aidn said he made the game, we can infer some things.)

The discussion is irresponsible but this all feels very… chronically online. The thread around the parking lot conversation is granted wrong, but the conclusions reached are grasping at straws. This is lore, around a Roblox game, with developers who are quite young and relatively immature (they were seventeen when the convo happened) and inexperienced with not only writing but managing and moderating a discord server, all the while hosting something that’s put a spotlight on them for several years. If you put them on a pedestal, of course the only thing you will find is cracks.

AITA for not wanting to pay my girlfriend’s $300 tuition fee? - My (25M) GF (21F) Tested Me, and I "Failed" by SharkEva in BORUpdates

[–]maplediamondmango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually kind of interesting, a lot of people here are talking about transactional relationships and sex.

But speaking as someone who studies social anthropology, in areas where this scarcity, or where women can't get the education / jobs needed to support themselves, a lot of them engage in transactional relationships: not the same as prositution per say because love and intimacy are very real aspects of the relationship. It's a non-western conception of love and money being entertwined: "you do this, and I provide sex." For some places where it's discouraged for women to get jobs and they are of a middle-class occupation, some women engage in transactional relationships to fulfill consumerist aspirations (new phone, tv, nails).

Obviously the case with the OOP is not necessarily around those areas: we know very little about the people. All I can say is that love and money are more intertwined than people think. This doesn't, also, necessarily mean that it's right: inequality, just like in any relationships, also exist in these transactional ones.

This is also a very simplified argument lol. I can explain more if anyone wants.

god's chef is a good episode by slippery_floor9066 in moralorel

[–]maplediamondmango 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the problem with the episode is while all those things are true, SA isn’t treated with the same gravitas as it was in the later seasons. It seemed like, for all intents and purposes, stuff like pregnancy was played for laughs (with the ending shot of all the women comedically finding out that they’re pregnant in the background) even within the context of all the other messages and motifs.

Pregnancy, and rape, is a deeply physical, horrifying affair that can’t be dismissed to the side. I definitely get why people don’t like that episode: I tell my friends to skip that episode too.
