epicmafia as a website where opportunities to reach out and show support to vulnerable people aren't hidden away because certain explicitly toxic and horrible people are allowed to roam and post freely. epicmafia as a website where hiding these opportunities away is the better option because there's no control over the self-maiming, humanity-killing community that the website harbours

let's just be real. this site is an actual dumpster. suicide notes get positive responses in the forums. ian, who consistently makes literally every nonstraight user on the site uncomfortable, was only recently held account for like months of rampant homophobia and ableism targeted at specific users to try and "own" them. you have to fight tooth and nail just to get forum users to not consistently spell out slurs on the forums any time the topic of slurs gets brought up. i know no one's arguing against this but the site truly is not worth saving or putting any sufficient amount of effort in while lucid's at the reins.

all right i'm done probably

i mean people like meetterry were able to say "kill all neggers" and threaten to dox a mod when they got a vio for it because lucid is a nonpresence and there's absolutely no authority behind a mod threatening to ban you when you just have to email lucid and it's a cointoss if he'll unban you on the spot

restricting free speech usually does not make 'toxic' thoughts disappear. often to the contrary.
and it also often just makes people express their 'toxic' thoughts indirectly, leading to a less honest community in the end.

censorship is not the way.

yeah it's censorship that i can't say "kill all n word babies at birth" in my mafia games as a goof

when you die, the guy giving the eulogy at your funeral isn't going to talk about that sick epicmafia setup you made or the time you cheated for a silver trophy. it's all about the impression you've made. just be a good person, sometimes it's all you can do


idk if you asked Pranay to give your eulogy that might be all he talks about

the fact that i sat down and the first thing i thought of was to come on here and play a game of mafia earlier when i was sobbing and needed a distraction? probably something wrong with that

nothing wrong with circlejerking

i mean tbh the only reason most of us have stayed and returned to this site is because a. we're not acquainted with mafiascum as much as we are this site and/or b. circlejerking.

also i get wanting to talk to strangers about your problems and seeing as i've put too much of my personal life and thoughts on this website for the past 7-8 years i feel like i can't talk about this but, there are much better places for it that won't make you feel shittier than before you came to the forums

like yall remember when arcbell messed relentlessly with the mod team, and rather than standing by the multiple individuals taking time out of their daily lives to help upkeep his site, he unbanned arcbell with little to no consultation to anyone
deletedalmost 7 years
i mean let's just say it for what it is: this site has a horrible community because lucid is nonexistent and asking admins/mods to keep a site decent for no reason only to get chewed out by lucid for not doing obscure/uninteresting contests instead of modding the site doesn't generate a productive modding style. dan stepping down as admin was the downward trend for em, and it had already been going downhill for a while. dan was just one of the few remaining people who cared about the site in a genuine way and wanted to make it a decent site. he got worn out because lucid was basically asking him to do a fool's errand.

anyway i love wieners. thick wangs are so attractive to me. #Blownout

this website could never have a serious discussion subforum because

1. banned users would troll it
2. the number of reports and moderation to be done in there would be through the roof
3. too many trolls

good idea and it does exist in many forums but in a dying userbase filled to the brim with trolls it will likely accomplish the opposite of its purpose


honestly the fact that this list isn't just "the people on this website suck at being decent people to one another" is a shame
