No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Because that’s not incredibly easy to exploit. And even if it’s not intentionally malicious reporting… there’s idiots who seem to think them lossing means the other cheated.
I’m reminded of my time in WoW- vanilla wow when T-0.5 was still the best gear yiu could reasonably get. Any how this fully geared T0.5, l60 warrior tried to gank my greens-and-blues geared l58 mage.
He waited until I was drinking, for that free crit. I was OOM, cuz I was ape grinding mobs.
I killed him using r1 frost bolt, frost nova and my wand. (Warriors at the time had zero ability to reliably gap close against any kind of mage.). Eventually he tried to run. He got but hurt from all the frost bolts I rammed up his ass.
Decided there’s no way a level 58 should be able to kill a 60. Now. Here’s the thing I’m very much “red is dead” in games with pvp. So of course i camped his ass. One, it was basically free HKs, two, he tried to gank a lower level, three he tried to gank an OOm mage. And four? Did I mention the free HKs?
In any case of course I got reported for haxxors. GM was like “dude are you camping him” I’m like “he started it… he could always get a friend.”
(He did. An equally terrible hunter. It was almost adorable.)
