I agree. That’ll happen anywhere people reflexively downvote and insult over an objectively true statement just because it doesn’t fit their worldview.

I don’t care enough to go back and read what I wrote to confirm, but I’m fairly sure that I said I could tell when English wasn’t someone’s native language as an ancillary statement to my initial point that the correct course of action is to assume everyone is American unless contrary evidence arises.
I do not assume anyone who writes a certain way online is a native speaker. I assume anyone who writes a certain way is an American. We are the largest group of native English speakers online, especially in forums that aren’t dedicated to a specific country.
plans to pursue changes” that would let regular users vote moderators out more easily
I think that’s a good thing in the long run. A lot of reddit moderators are absolutely shit people, and having an actual process to remove them is a good thing.
It should go without saying fuck u/spez and that his motives here are absolutely malicious in nature, but I do see some small good coming from this.
That’s not what you said. What you said was downvotes mean I’m wrong. I showed a case that clearly proved you were wrong, so now you’re trying to make a strawman argument out of an insignificant tangent.
I don’t think you actually believe anything you’re saying or are even cognizant of what it is that you are saying. I think you saw someone being downvotes and jumped on it as an opportunity to feel better about yourself since people are more likely to downvotes me since I’ve already been downvoted. I hope you progress in your life to the point where you don’t need this validation from others to function.
Good luck, and have a nice day.
Downvotes don’t mean I’m wrong. Downvotes mean people disagree with me. The two are not always the same.
By your logic, if I were to go into a conservative community and get downvotes for saying trans people deserve to live, that would mean they don’t deserve to live.
A typographical error is not a grammatical error. It’s nice to see people will always fall back on attacking the person when they don’t have a valid point.
And you can usually tell the ESLs because they usegrammar in an unnatural way, either very stiff and formal or with a heavy dose of influence from their native language.
It’s autocorrect.
Your assumption is completely off. My assumption is completely correct. I was talking about native speakers, as I clearly stated in my post. Your assumption that I meant to include everyone who can speak English is off.
I can speak Spanish. It is correct for someone in a Spanish speaking community to assume I’m from a Spanish speaking nation, because that’s the most likely scenario.
There are about 450 million people who speak English as their primary language. About 300 million of them are American.
If you’re communicating with a stranger in English and you don’t know they’re nationality, the odds are heavily in favor of them being American. Like it or not, we’re the default.
I would love to see GTA: San Andreas updated to modern QoL standards and with renewed licensing so all of the original songs are included.
This guy rolls around and picks shit up.
Small ball becomes big ball
Civilization. Any of them.
Dragons Dogma Dark Arisen is fun to play, although a bit more in the vein of classical RPG than what you’ve mentioned. Plus there’s a new DD game coming out soonish, so if you enjoy it you’ll have a new title to enjoy soon.
Geocaching can be 3rd person if you’re small enough to ride someone else around like master blaster.
Yup. It wouldn’t surprise me if the product that ships after that trailer is just a choose your own adventure popup book.
So during to formatting on my phone, I read that as “they even have it running at 30 fps” and was like uhhh…
I can recognize about a dozen Chinese characters, so I can confidently say that this probably isn’t about soup.
