I want to clarify that I was referring to anything that I specifically posted. I take no responsibility for the content of the raw logs.

Thanks for clarifying. :)

Fwiw, GOONS can't / doesn't force anyone to do anything. We provide options to receive peace ingame along with a comedy option; if someone chooses the comedy option, there's nothing we can do about it.

Provide an example of the usual terms provided.

Mate when kids are involved you can't pretend it's the same as doing it to a 22 year old who actually has full mental capacity to comprehend what they're doing and actually make an informed decision.

Peer pressure doesn't force anybody to do anything, it just gives a choice wherein one is heavily weighted to be considered 'wrong'.

Don't give a damn if it's to adults, but there's no defense for kids, there's never a defense for that sort of behavior towards kids.

I'm in GOONS server, it's usually

1. Write some sort of comic about whatever they say

2. An essay of 800 word on whatever topic they choose

3. The weird food thing

Thanks for the summary, I'd still like to see an actual example though since the topics themselves could be rather humiliating.

This has already been addressed. If you find specific instances, @ArcKnox has said to let him know and he will be more than happy to remove any that were overlooked. 

No it hasn't. 

If you take a walk through the raw logs, you'll find plenty of OOC convos and RL information from myself and others posted in a private channel. 
Archknox has posted only IC excerpts, which is fine, but in no way excuses the fact that a bunch of people are apparently fine with spreading around unscrubbed logs with personal details in them as long as they also have Roq saying mean things about KETOG and Chaos. 

Thanks though, I hope a few weeks of shitting on IQ is worth this.

So, to receive peace from GOONS, you must complete one of the following tasks. Failure to complete a task will earn you a spot on our enemy of GOONS list. However upon completion you will be rewarded with peace and a 30 day NAP between yourself and GOONS as an entity, completion of all three will qualify you for consideration into our great alliance.

1. Write and sing a pirate shanty of the great goon sinking of Arrgh. Must be entertaining/Funny and uploaded as either a video or mp3.

2. An 800 word essay on why stealing fizzy lifting drinks should have been a criminal offense, this will be graded by GOONS membership.

3. Create a 9 panel MSPaint on when, exactly, you realized Arrgh was a trash fire, and what you would give to have that part of your life back.

4. Comedy Option Eat an orange, without peeling it, on video for our entertainment.

This was posted at some point.

Yes, I misread what he was saying. Thankfully Arcknox was kind enough to clarify for me. :)

If there is indeed OOC content (I have been unable to read them in their entirety as they are extensive), I would like to echo Cooper's request that they be scrubbed of OOC content before being re-released.

It's pretty pathetic that you feel the need to subject a defeated foe to humiliation before granting peace. 

The terms aren't as bad as I was suspecting but yeah, still on the pathetic side of things. Not that my opinion will matter to you naturally.

Far from being a punishment, in truth a lot of people come to enjoy the mercy board.  In other worlds, people who did the mercy board wound up joining GOONS.  It is the purest form of creativity, purely voluntary, and an absolute riot.  It is one of the defining aspects of our culture.  It is not violence we seek, it is entertainment.  I had my worries about transitioning to a discord version of the process, but I'm happy to report we have had great successes already, and I eagerly await what's in store next.

Keep your "culture" to yourselves.

All the pearl clutching from TGH and KT is fairly rich. You're not in a position to have an opinion that matters anymore.

Maybe we also need to latch onto the teat of a larger benefactor in order to be relevant? 

Nah, we will pass. We will leave such things to the likes of you.

Got any evidence to back up such a wild accusation? We can wait.

Also, it's nowhere.

Isn't the minimum age of this game 13? There shouldn't be 11-year olds participating in these sorts of shenanigans at all in the first place.

Furthermore, if someone would rather eat an unpeeled orange on camera instead of writing an essay or doodling a comic or singing a song, that's on them. From what I'm reading here there is no coercion for people to take the "easy but humiliating" option, and yet people seem to line up for it anyway.
