Really? I was not aware there was a discussion about it. Like I said, I've been stuck in gote for the past couple weeks.


I have already liked you for turning it on. Now you have a moral obligation to keep it that way :)

you care so much about a little button that just spreads kudos throughout the clique. why is that such a big deal?

posts in off topic do not contribute to the idea of the forum. people who get liked should do so because they made an insightful post related to go. now if it were up to em, the like option would never exist. but if it has to stay, it being on in off topic creates disillusion for newcomers. theyre going to assume that people with a lot of likes are very helpful, when its really when they made a crappy joke about sente or gote.

Getting double-sente right here (200)!

What would that even mean in the context of dying?
We don't know who we are; we don't know where we are.
Each of us woke up one moment and here we were in the darkness.
We're nameless things with no memory; no knowledge of what went before,
No understanding of what is now, no knowledge of what will be.

My life feels like I'm struggling to just get sente. Fate is a stronger player, poking at my bad shape and making me heavy. I'm having to take gote just to survive.


I once again feel the urgent need for the 'like feature' in off-topic posts! Please reconsider policy here. :geek:


The "like" feature is so overused, though. Pretty much every site has that. <<

Clearly the solution is therefore to only like posts with good jokes about sente or gote. That way even if the person isn't insightful or helpful, they'll at least be funny
