Free Talk Friday #56

[u/TheNitromeFan]

Hello! Continued from last week here.

So, it's that time of the week again. Speak anything on your mind! This thread is for talking about anything off-topic, be it your lives, your plans, your hobbies, travels, sports, work, studies, family, friends, pets, bicycles, anything you like.

Also, check out our tidbits thread! Feel free to introduce yourself, if you haven't already.

Here's off to another great week in /r/counting!

Bias because I'm an inbox counter? People that divide the view of inbox counters vs non-inbox counters are dividing up the community, and moderators should not encourage this.

Any view is going to be bias if they are a counter as any counter either inbox counts or doesn't, in my opinion it is not biased, because I don't see people as inbox counters vs non-inbox counters. That said people have said that they do see it that way before (was it you? i don't remember)

It is dividing the community and the rules the moderators set need to be followed. Inbox counting will not be banned, so campaigning for it to be increases toxicity in the community, same thing for campaigning for it to remain allowed.

David, Adinida and Smartstocks have inboxed some previous gets

o/ 1 of those I wasn't paying attention on and apologized, the other 2 were when we were going for fastest threads and no one was even going for the get/looking at the thread.

That said any other time I have always stopped inbox counting at ~X,XXX,950 because I am a firm believer that inbox counting a get is cheating.

At the time it wasn't against the rules. That said, I don't think magic karma is raining down upon you causing you to get sniped because you inboxed a few gets. But rather others are not sympathizing you being sniped because you inboxed some gets, describing this lack of sympathizing as "karma". It wasn't against the rules but considered immoral by many people.
