How serious are you in NSG?

For discussion and debate about anything. (Not a roleplay related forum; out-of-character commentary only.)

Well?

What is this "humor" that you speak of? NSG is only for non-nonsense debates on important topics such as our virginity, Japanese anime, and sex!

Meh. A joke or two doesn't hurt, but it should mainly stay in F7. NSG should be serious.

I post a balanced mixture of humor and substance. In other words, I'm an average, boring, and unnecessary addition to this community.

I mean, dick-waving is fun and all, but why so serious? What's life without some laughs? Apart from the fact that humor causes threadjacking, of course.

How serious are you in NSG?

Postby Blitzkrenia » Thu Jan 28, 2010 10:00 pm

During my short stint here in NSG, I've noticed not only the enormous variety of backgrounds, opinions, and ethics of the posters here, but also the different levels of seriousness. Some are only here for the debates, others make a wisecrack or two, and still others are nothing without their puns and jokes. Just for kicks, I decided to make poll out of the diversity.

So, the question is simple: How serious/lighthearted are you in NSG?

Though for some reason I stayed and have grown attached to you all.

THE INTERNET IS NOT FOR JOKING.

Whether or not I'm being serious depends on the context.

Every post of mine is utterly serious in NSG for it is meant for nothing but seriousness. If you do not believe me I will flog you to death with the femur of your first born child. :eyebrow:

Depends - if there's an argument or debate going on, I'll be a dick and throw out several failed attempts at humor, and eventually leave knowing that my status in NSG (to which this day remains at about 0) has not been helped at all.

If there's a joke or something going on, I'll be a dick and throw out several failed attempts at hum- oh wait, it doesn't depend. Meh.

Option 4. :meh:

Indeed. All jokesters should be expelled immediately, and never be allowed to return!

My mood largely determines this. ;)

I used to love serious debates here. Now it's not fun unless there are lolz. Arguing has lost much of it's appeal to me.

Expulsion from the internet is equivalent to death. Once gone, you linger on as a non-entity.

Maybe but I for one demand that Black Jewish Ninjas storm their house and assassinate them in order to send a message to others that the internet is indeed srs busns.
