I'm not planning to mudsling & never will, but here are reasons remove the rule nonetheless.

My main point is that it makes lying WAYYY easier. Some people say that they're going to "change things for the better" but all they want is just to be called president. Other's can and do try to hide their bad reputation as cyberbullies, masking the harassment comments with promotion posters. Secondly, mudslinging can actually help in ratting out the best person to vote, due to being able to see how they'll handle in political arguments. We can see how they'll handle future problems & what they truly aim for when they become president. And finally, people are actually just straight up ignoring the rule, & the mods are barely doing anything about it. Why make a rule if you're not gonna enforce it daily? Thank you for coming to my semi-political TED talk, and good day/night/whatever time you're reading this.

It depends on what your definition of mudslinging is. In my view, criticism of someone else's ideas is allowed and I certainly have my criticisms of some of the candidates running. Some people however took it way too far to the point where it was basically bullying, hence why the Stream Mods, with some coordination with me, felt the need to put the no mudslinging rule in place.

My point is, if you're gonna keep the rule, enforce it. I've seen some bullying here and the stream mods did nothing about it. I don't think they even saw it.

I agree

I agree
But I also understand why it's in place. It's supposed to be a fun roleplay and some people took it too far and it kinda made it really not fun.

Then if you're all gonna try to keep the rule, then enforce it. If ya'll don't have the audacity to keep everyone in check with the rule, let it down and watch the bloodshed. It's either peace, arguments, or more arguments.

good point man
