>>23519689as i expected, all you have are loose connections. i take it you think every concept is about humans since humans are the only ones who can think about them. as for the strength of a concept, i gave the analogy of a cylinder with how specific/vague the concept is (ie, how many other concepts are connected to it) deciding how long the radius is, and how commonly the concept can be found as it's height/the total fuel of it. a concept that is specific, such as a single number or sequence of numbers, lets say the fibonacci sequence, has a cylinder with a very large radius, and can therefore burn a large amount of fuel (is more powerful, but runs out quicker) but it also is found just about everywhere (and therefore has a large reserve of fuel, ie, it decays in use at a slower rate.) and therefore concepts such as the fibonacci sequence are ideal, but of course other concepts are either more vague, or less common. for instance, /horni/'s concept is honiness, which is very common, but also very vague. certainly more vague than a specific fetish thread, which might be less common, which is relatively more common, and more vague than a thread dedicated to a corporation, further still an individual chuuba. figuring out how much energy a generator makes is arbitrary without defining what a unit of energy is, such as a joule, but until someone defines such a unit, we can use this concept to at least figure out how everyone compares to each other.
>I'd suggest that you not say someone's idea "clearly doesn't work", especially in a topic where whether something works or not is rather ambiguous and objective. It's a bit rude.i don't mean to be rude, i just want the setting to be grounded in some degree of realism. your idea is fine if we wanted to disregard realism, but i would see that as a failure of world building. specific stories taking place in universes that only exist as a place for that story to take place in can get away with poorly designed universes with bad world building because the point of making those universes isn't to flesh them out and make them work as concepts, but to have them set in the background and forgotten. good works of fiction will often try to make their setting grounded by using world building to create an interesting universe in addition to an interesting story because making an interesting universe can make your stories even more interesting than they would be without. with all this in mind, i can't help but see your suggestion as being less grounded than mine. you can say it's ambiguous and not objective (i think that's what you meant there) but i don't think you can deny that my idea is able to cut of at least a few more layers of ambiguity than yours, at least in the way you have described it.
>>23521120i don't think anti-chuubanite as a concept is bad, just that every suggestion so far has done it poorly. there seems to be two interpretations most people take, either it literally does nothing whatsoever, or it changes the way the universe itself works. with the right balancing i think anti-chuubanite could be an interesting inclusion into our setting, with that said, this new idea is way better in my opinion. you could say the doxing schizos kill off some of the mystery of chuubas, but all schizos bring out the worst in the chuubas and their fans, and the negative effect of any given chuubanite allows for more interesting dynamics to play out. with that being said, you should let each thread decide what their negative effect is. personally, the way i see it, it can either be a reversal of their original chuubanite effect, which i think is a bit boring desu, or it can be a negative interpretation of the normal chuubanite effect, representing the toxicity of a chuuba and their fanbase. i can't speak for other threads, so to use /meat/ as an example, /meat/ chuubanite makes things go through the life cycle at a faster pace, which can cause imperfect healing and cancerous growth, but /meat/ gets around this by having skilled medics, but negative /meat/ chuubanite could be even harder to control, think love town or mitty. this represents the fears some people have about us encouraging other people to do bad things, or the idea that we are a bunch of degenerates. this is just a hypothetical example, i'd have to talk with the rest of my thread to hammer out a good suggestion.
>>23522603schizos having the same behavior wherever they are could have more to do with administration method than the actual effect their behavior incites.
