Thanks for the comment!<br /><br />Running a community is really hard work, and if I'm going to run a community then I'll need some sort of plan for it.<br />I mean, I've run communities before and I run one now on Pokémon Online, but I'm wondering how I would approach it.<br /><br />(If it's exclusively KoopaTV then having a Google+ community wouldn't really be getting anymore folks. If it's something more general, then people would be turned off if the mix of posts isn't right.)Ludwig Von Koopahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07286894104423855927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803482805925136251.post-13855384387742468102015-09-10T18:49:53.744-04:002015-09-10T18:49:53.744-04:00How dumb, but then again Google + communities aren...How dumb, but then again Google + communities aren't that great anyway when you let users take the wheel... But knowing you...<br /><br />How about you make your own community, Ludwig? You can make your own rules and put your articles there! You'll have another outlet for KoopaTV publicity too.ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04525180395586476958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803482805925136251.post-51101770958770242872015-09-10T07:29:41.974-04:002015-09-10T07:29:41.974-04:00I've given up on people being consistent with ...I've given up on people being consistent with their written policies a long time ago. None of the places I've been banned from have been consistent with their written policies.<br /><br />Except Facebook, I guess. They pretty much put on paper that they're evil but people still use it, which makes me wonder if people even care.<br /><br />Either way, we'll continue to make fun of serious issues and we'll find other outlets to let folks know our content exists. And hey, Google+ is still a big place and a viable platform and it's not like Google themselves banned me.<br /><br />...(Unless they do, and then I think more than Google+ will be affected. *gulp*)<br /><br />But yeah, these types of groups don't really do serious discussion. A lot of it are stupid polls like "CALL OF DUTY OR BATTLEFIELD".<br /><br />Repost:<br />OH YEAH. Uh, does <i>Miiverse</i> stay true to its written rules? Well, pretty much yes, the problem there is they over-enforce.Ludwig Von Koopahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07286894104423855927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803482805925136251.post-91793728265407056882015-09-10T07:17:46.340-04:002015-09-10T07:17:46.340-04:00Being the legalistic person that I am, I went to t...Being the legalistic person that I am, I went to the group and read their policies. I found nothing about "making fun of serious issues." I could see them stretching it if they argued the post was self-promotion or flamebait, but that's not the reason they gave.<br /><br />And I want to know how far "making fun of serious issues" goes. Would they have a problem with Hogan's Heroes (which I know isn't a video game, but it's the first example I thought of) because Nazis and POW camps are serious issues? What did they do during the Portal 2 controversy when a parent made a stink over GLaDOS making fun of fat and adopted people (which was played for laughs in the same dark way nearly everything she says is)?<br /><br />Just saying, "making fun of serious issues" is a vague and unclear reason to ban someone when it isn't listed in their policies.Samantha Lienhardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00050896759185927270noreply@blogger.com
