If we call ourselves the Traps maybe we could slyly pull in the /r9k/ crowd and convert them.

@Albo Greychak - MI I get what you mean

@Albo Greychak - MI I get what you were saying, I think you just have a way of phrasing things that comes off as more larpy than you mean.

@Albo Greychak - MI When you literally say you want a "cult like" ceremony, then yeah, you kinda do.

<:really:453005408064241674>

Everyone else got it

<:really:453005408064241674> "when I said cult-like, I didn't mean cult-like"

@Albo Greychak - MI Not the way to handle that man

Understandable have a nice day

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN please keep the language clean. Even minor racial slurs. Thank you ☺️

<:really:453005408064241674> having an emoji to communicate disdain. Does this help us?

Not really, it's overused too much and towards other members.

Yikes

?

Its like the <:really:453005408064241674> really bro? Emoji

I prefer 🤢 for comedy disapproval

@Phillip Wiglesworth - FL I meant to say "Western Hemisphere Mongol-Aztec" my mistake.

<:really:453005408064241674>

<:really:453005408064241674> <:really:453005408064241674> <:really:453005408064241674>

Hitting someone with a <:really:453005408064241674> automatically roasts them

Bro if you're offended by a react...

You can't recover

: 🤔 🤢 😂 my emotional range

@Perihelion - CA very Evropean

🌲 ⚒ 🇫 are three I use often

Honestly dude trying to plan and deliver on a ceremony at a time so young in our organization's history would probably result in some incredibly high quality cringe

Not really offended, the emoji just kind of strikes me as unnecessary and it's used passive aggressively.

That's what it's for

It reminds me of Reddit 🤢

@Kingfish valid point. I like The informal ones we have like recognizing member of week/month, and lapel pins. To return to my earlier thought, as the clout of an organization rises, so does the cringe/LARP threshold

Right but it's not a good thing

I'm sure each chapter has a few unique things they do born naturally out of consistent fraternity

Are we men or what? Someone can disagree with you and banter you a little bit. It's not the end of the world.

An IE that is ten years old and 10,000 members could afford more paegentry

@Papa Pizzagate and I have a few regular things we tend to do with our North Atlantic guys that almost serve as rituals

And it kind of came naturally though seeing each other a lot

But trying to plan one out? Eh

@Albo Greychak - MI Not saying that, there's a difference between a bit and too much

IT'S A REACT lmao

@Kingfish very good point. a mannerbund (or whatever) functions best the more organic it is

"Too much"? Jeez
