I had down turboprinzessin because I saw in this thread that she had asked for challenges but not sure if she is active or not in the debate circle
Ah! Thanks for reminding me, Bambi! I have Turbo on my list of people to challenge as well (I've added everyone in the debate circle to my "favorite bimbos" list, it's just easier for me to make sure I don't miss anyone that way). I didn't realize that I hadn't added her to the list here though so thank you again for pointing it out! :)
As far as the idea of making the spreadsheets to see who is & isn't challenging whom & sending them to me so I can remove "inactive members" from the list:
A.) I would like to give a reminder that not everyone is able to get on here everyday.
B.) I would like to also remind everyone that even if they
can get on everyday they simply may not have enough tokens to go around for everyone (like me) & (like me) it may tremendously bother them if they only send debates to
some of the people on the list & not
everyone. (I'm a little bit particular about it & I don't want to leave anyone out...plus my memory is
sooooooo awful that if I only sent debates to some people on the list & not all of them then I'd get
very confused,
very easily lol).
Also, while I
do approve of the idea of using spreadsheets for those of you who want to keep track of these things, I would highly recommend
not sending them to me. I'm
extremely terrible with numbers & would be pretty damn likely to fuck it all up somehow lmao.
With that being said, please keep in mind that I'm also not the only person who is allowed to alter the list. There have never been any rules set in place for who is "in charge" of adding or removing people from the list. I just happen to do so whenever I take a look at the thread & see that someone has requested to be added or removed (& no one else has already updated the list).
I'm here for the same reasons why Cum made this thread; to work together with others to achieve a goal that is difficult for all of us to achieve on our own.
This thread was never intended to be a way of breaking the rules, "gaming the system", or otherwise cheating. It was a member of our community offering help to anyone else in the community who was interested in working towards the common goal of earning the Curious Badge.
I can see why some people might look at this & find it ethically...hm....ambiguous? ...I personally don't agree with that assessment &, again, that is never what this thread was intended to be, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. Just as everyone is entitled to join or leave the debate group at their own discretion. We aren't a "gang" of one person with multiple accounts trying to get ahead. We're just a group of players trying to help other players & while, again, I can see how some people could possibly see it as an ethical "grey area"...this is a game. If we were actually breaking any rules of this game (or it became clear that the majority of people in the debate circle were
not helping each other out but instead simply receiving debates without giving anything back to the rest of the group). Then yeah, that's not what this was meant to be, so someone would have to discuss with them
why this was happening & depending on the explanation they'd either be allowed to stay in the group or they wouldn't.
Not having the tokens to debate people back every day is understandable. As I've already said, even
I can't do that so I don't feel like we should kick people out of the group for that alone. Part of this group is that it's here for
all players to join & participate in as they will. But, again, it was never intended for people to join simply to leech off of the people debating them without ever debating anyone back.
That being said...I have no interest in getting into an argument or anything on the topic. I've added my opinion, & I hope that you understand my reasoning.
And also, @Pia, Hey! I totally
did not forget your birthday! ;P ...And you're still young, hun,
I'm older than you, sweet summer child. ;) <3
