I'd like to understand the reasoning behind my 15-day comment restriction. The video I posted was censored and contained no explicit content. I'm struggling to understand how this decision aligns with the platform's moderation standards and would appreciate clarification.

I see avatars with actual sexual connotations all the time. I thought this was supposed to be a progressive and gay-friendly forum.

I am grateful for all the Civics regulars btw

@Vermillion @Relampago. @Communion @ClashAndBurn @LegaMyth @dabunique @Lil Mistee @Sannie and the rest because it's getting tedious doing the tags on mobile

I know how much work Vermillion puts into keeping the election megathread running in particular

The essays ...

While I greatly appreciate the leftist perspectives shared on this site, I think it's healthy to remember that posting on ATRL is not praxis

We're not saving the world by commenting on a pop culture forum. You don't need to go SO hard all the time.

Civics is gone,

Roof is gone,

Michael is gone

but still Mad Nonna is here

Stream Confessions Two.

But really, though, some people only post in Civics. Why delete it??

Ok, seriously...gurl, what is going on

Not HQ being used as a halfway house...

I'm glad that there are no more civics threads in here temporarily

Delete games & lounge section next

Where is the search bag?? It is coming back???

Your post was very well-said and I hope everyone reads it. This part felt especially relevant, and is, I believe, the core issue when it comes to arguments in Civics. Hardly anyone can ever disengage. If Communion is mischaracterizing your statements, ignore their posts and keep it moving. But instead, people respond, get into back and forths, and even when they're asked to take a break, refuse to do so and keep arguments going. Communion knows very well that they used to fight with me all the time in 2016 when I was a Hillary supporter (another lifetime ) and I just put them on ignore and I no longer got into arguments with them. It's that easy. But because people refuse to disengage, its left to the mods to handle these arguments, which almost always devolve into name-calling and other personal attacks.

because creating actual change in society comes second to moral superiority as a means of fulfillment online.

I go to Bonnaroo for a week and yall idiots got the civics section shutdown. SMH. The over dramatics when mods said it would come back too. Yall go outside.

@Rian how long till it comes back. There is too much going on to see if that was answered.

This should be a notice. If we got a notice for when Whis sucked a guy's dick, we should get important notices about forum changes.

the way I thought Civics got shut down by the white house when I first logged in

is the huge ass "banner" before every post like @Pomegranate is doing even allowed?

like girl no one needs to see that and it's taking up space. i'm seeing it everywhere and it doesn't contribute anything to the discussion

i don't think that's how do you this sort of personal branding?

@Pomegranate randomly getting lashed in the midst of the screaming and essays about the civics section getting shut down bc of discord drama

I like the envelope it's cheeky and distinctive. atrl is a shitpost website, and I like it a little tacky and flavorful on here

Hello, 'ATRL HQ' I would like to question as to why I was banned for 2 months despite only having accumulated 4 warning points? Have I missed a sentence in the fine print? I'm happy to re read.

This forum doesn't allow calling Taylor a MAGA, or Republican, let alone a terrorist, so it might have been that

Ah, thank you sweetie in perhaps flagging the protection of a verified harmer of the environment against the harmless posts of an ATRL netizen.

I'd like to offer my bent knee to ATRL in solidarity of Taylor Swift and declare I hope her private jet lands safely in Hollywood, CA in time for her film premiere of the billion dollar franchise Toy Story. God bless her, Disney and the color green!

please bring back Civics section for the sake of good sis @Vermillion alone

"A message from Pomegranate" is giving "… @Vin " teas

I think @Pomegranate 's signature is instantly iconic.

And it's so versatile. You could change the colors of the envelope, the wax seal, the paper, the font. You can make the image bigger, smaller, put it at the start of the post, at the end. Will be fun to see how it will evolve (and how many members FUME over it).

P.S. Didn't notice Civics was gone. What happened to it? Explain it in pop girl terms. Where will members go to say the word "Zionist" over and over now?

Again, we don’t give a damn what you call a celeb, the issue is attacking other fanbases. You’ve been told this numerous times and yet you still choose to lie.

You had 10 active warning points. that’s why you were banned for 2 months.
