>there's no place to figure out these little nuggets without asking unfortunately
What the actual fuck?
You watch, you gather data, you look for patterns. That's what "researchers" do. THIS is the place either to figure out how to do that, or lurk quietly with the understanding that, until you do, you're better suited just to observe what happens here and spread what you learn on SocMed.
>then you're at the mercy of whomever wants to help or be a jerk.
Exactly. Our culture is designed to self-moderate by shaming ignorant fucks demanding to be spoonfed.
>You're good, anon. When conversing with anons, just pretend as if you are having a conversation with someone that has dissociative identity disorder.
Nice try pathologizing an opposing opinion. How Marxist of you. There is nothing inconsistent about our culture, Anons have been salty since the beginning. It's in our welcome statement that we're a "boot camp for the mind." We welcome all new would-be research contributors and those that observe and disseminate what we find here. But we're not a feel-good chat room for the lazy to hang out and dilute the efforts of our research with inane questions and platitudes. Q came here so autists could be autists.
