badposting
badposting is a comm where you post badly
This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.
Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?
Rules:
- Do not post good posts.
- Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
- Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
- This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
- This rule intentionally left blank.
- If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.
Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

Yes, because orthography wasn't just me trying to say "spelling" in a pretentious way, it was to refer to the standardized way to write in a language, which include all aspects of writing, so a symbol representing one spoken word rather than another is also orthography, just an more opaque type of orthography than most alphabetic or syllabic systems. That said, it still often has both phonetic and semantic measures to make itself more clear, so it's not totally rote (less so in Sinitic languages other than Mandarin, because afaik the phonetic elements of characters are more consistently applicable there*). Japanese kanji are somewhat more opaque, but this is mitigated by the use of katakana and hiragana in the main writing and furigana as a reading aid, so Japanese writing overall is less opaque (but still far more so than, say, Spanish).
*I do not remotely speak any Sinitic languages, so I encourage you to do your own research on this subject because I have only a vague idea about this matter.
