Hello,

I have been incredibly busy with life, barely keeping on eye on this place and letting it police itself. Many users on this website love to proclaim that mods should back off and let the users and community police themselves with upvotes and downvotes.

The result: this subreddit is garbage. It is just another subreddit where all y'all are doing is bitching, whining, fighting, shitposting, off topic posting, low effort posting, and just in general acting like miserable human beings surrounded by other miserable human beings.

This is going to change. If that results in one post a month, then so be it. I would rather this subreddit pass to the Djalia than operate in its current form.

So let's clarify some items:

1. This is a T'challa subreddit. It says so in the subreddit description none of you have read. Only T'challa is in the banner. If this bothers you, leave. Are posts about Shuri, M'baku, Killmonger, Storm, etc allowed? Yes. Are posts where you act like they are the main character allowed? No. Are posts that go, "this is a bLaCk PaNtHeRs subreddit" allowed? No.

This is r/blackpanther. Not r/blackpanthers. Not r/wakanda. Not r/blacksuperheroes. Not r/Storm. Not r/Shuri. T'challa is the Black Panther.

2. The infighting with Shuri and Storm Fans will stop. Just fucking stop. Stop purposedly agitating each other. Y'all are not discussing. Y'all are just trying to get barbs in and agitate each other. Stop acting like children.

3. Absolutely no real world politics. You can do that in every single subreddit on this website. Go do it there. You are not an activist because you posted that T'challa is oppressed because he is a black male for the 102343th time.

4. If you use a racial slur, you are gone. I don't care what race you say you are, I can't confirm and so you will just be banned.

5. Put some effort into your posts. At least pretend you passed middle school.

6. All bans are permanent. I don't do two weeks bans, 2 day bans, one month bans... if you break 1-4, you will be permabanned.

If this doesn't jive with you, that is fine. The beauty of reddit is that there are an infinite amount of subreddits and you can even make your own. I am not arguing with people about this. Adapt or leave.

Game after Game has been perish song stall.

They either quit with the first taunt or it becomes a game of protect slop.

And why on Arceus blue earth do they win if everyone dies the last turn? Why isn't this a draw?

Our kids are finally old enough where we want to take them somewhere "adventureous" and am looking for advice and guidance.

My wife and I are rather athletic so no restrictions there. The oldest is as well. It is the youngest who doesn't quite of the stamina for hiking 6 hours or anything but he is plenty fit to handle shorter burst adventures.

We would like to stay in North America.

A National PArk sounds great but choosing the right one that fits kids stamina + making it worth it for adults seems hard to me. Like we would love to do the Grand Canyon, but we do not believe the youngest could hike down into it and if we are going to go somewhere like that, we want to do it right.

Yellowstone, cruise to Alaska, Costa Rica, and Puerto Rico were the initial ideas we had. I figured there were more National Parks that aren't as popular as Yellowstone that I don't know of so please shout them out if they are kid friendly-ish. Other than the Smokeys, I've been there so would rather not repeat selfishly.

Thanks in advance and let me know any other information you need.
