We're still talking about NSG, right? I mean I like the aggro around here, but we are proudly made of purest venom.


Even for NSG, all the OSRS rules made it a lot more tame compared to the others. :P

One can see primal majesty in even a tamed stallion.

What I'm saying here is that social media is social media is social media. I just very much enjoy flowery depiction.

It's social media.

Barring this just being a site comprising of you as sole human and us as rampant AI that demand your eyeballs.

I suppose it is, by definition, social media, but not the same way that Facebook is.
You don't go on NS to see your best friend from middle school saying stuff like "I think fascism gets a bad wrap," you go on NS to see random strangers say that instead.

Some are content with being random, while others demand to be more. Those people tend to become collateral damage.

Was mostly unproductive today because my work laptop prompted me to do OS update and I complied out of reflex, and it put my laptop into clean slate state and ICT had to prepare me a new one.
