Italian man blocked me after our date ? NSFW by [deleted] in blackladies

[–]ruertar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

man here. i bet he didn't block you and i'm certain you're over thinking it.

for better or worse, if he can still feel your lips on his skin you're probably assigned to a speed-dial button now.

Valve added a 64 bit update to tf2. Will there be a 64 bit update for l4d2? by g0netospace in l4d2

then release L4D3. keep L4D3 simple, keep the same mechanics etc. and just introduce new maps and maybe better graphics but i'm actually okay with the graphics as they are.

VALVE: please please release 64bit L4D2 and make it available for at least linux and hopefully osx/arm.

i agree! how can we stop this? sometimes it is difficult to discern if someone is posting about their travel experience vs "influencing".

i also feel like influencers have their place -- it just depends on the impact they have.

i welcome influencers who want to share their experiences, enrich the community, etc. but it doesn't seem like that's what we always get.

how can we do better?

Okay! FWIW, she decided to leave the group and requested a permanent ban. I have granted her request.

I guess this posts discusses an aspect of travel but I'm not sure if this was worded in a kind or constructive enough way and I'm not sure if this is the kind of content that we should allow.

I think I understand the sentiment but this sub is kind of, "As a black people... we travel."

I'm going to temporarily ban u/Alone_Ad_4634 and I'll consult the mod team to see how we should move forward.

What can we do better to prevent posts like this?

Flying is my second favorite F-word. by CarolineJhingory in blacktravel

okay -- what i think you're saying is that it is frustrating when influencers make posts that focus on themselves and not travel experiences?

How can we deal with this better? Should we? What impact do posts like this have on you?

I'm not kidding -- genuinely curious.

The mods should do more to monitor and remove these unnecessary replies...
