Ignore it. It is Cantr related discussion and nothing has happened in it to warrant locking.

A suggestion out off the suggestion topic?
Sarcasm never good in writing?
Locking could be warranted by the topic not having a clearly discernable point.

I think it's discernible since he edited it to add this explanation of what he means by 'potato paradise'. There are now replies that indicate understanding of the edited topic and provide PoV's. Originally that reason would have been sufficient, but not at this point.

Besides, letting it go on could be amusing. :P

Potato paradise kept my characters alive (when I was busy with school) until my account was de-activated.

Well if the thread isn't gonna be locked for being pointless, the direction it's going in now might do the trick.

There are only 4 votes total between the two threads you linked (so 2 that are not yours?), and fewer responses (3 other people besides yourself and Suchy).

Of those responses, one links to your other poll and states that they are neutral and seems to state that so long as the rules are being followed, then let the person alone (I think?). One makes a joke. The other, I'm not quite sure I understand.

Just because someone annoys you, or even a few people, is not a good reason to ban someone. If they have broken the rules, then there may be causation for banning. It is not something to do at someone's whim or simply because one does not like someone. There are people that annoyed me when I was a moderator, but I did not ban them.

And what happens to those foes?


Anyway, I do think these potato villages are terrible :) ... But wrong, well, ... Just build an aggressive empire and overwhelm them! :) They can become potato slaves :) ...

Those foes become silent. :D Good tip, Nancy.

As for potato slaves... Hmm, interesting. "Get those potatoes, NOW! We have a deadline, people! *cracks whip*" That could definitely cause some fun. Then there might be an uprising of the potato slaves, and they make the potato masters into the potato slaves. Hah.

Slapping up? Beating one another?
