The period was marked by discussions ranging from educational policies and societal issues to cultural commentary and technical assistance, reflecting the forum’s broad spectrum of interests and its users’ engagement with both internal and external affairs.
The week commenced with significant debate sparked by a proposal to ban minors from owning game accounts, as seen in the topic “全国人大代表樊董伟：建议禁止未成年人拥有游戏账号”. This topic quickly became a focal point, attracting numerous responses and varied perspectives. Users like @MYIHV pointed out the impracticality of such bans due to parental accounts being readily available (post 11), while @Hatsune_miku sarcastically commented on the potential for extreme reactions from children if such policies were enforced (post 13). @nya astutely questioned the underlying reasons for game addiction among children, suggesting a lack of alternative leisure activities in China (post 16). The discussion further evolved to encompass broader issues of Chinese education and societal pressures, with @colas arguing that excessive academic pressure, rather than games, is the root cause of children’s distress (post 28). Humorous and satirical takes also emerged, such as @MengXIN’s ironic “excerpt” on reasons to ban electronic devices for minors (post 33) and @nocatnozzz’s dark humor suggesting a link between the age of consent and gaming age to boost birth rates (post 62). The topic concluded with @nocatnozzz offering a legalistic interpretation of the proposal, suggesting it might only restrict ownership, not usage, of game accounts (post 77), showcasing the depth and multifaceted nature of forum discussions. This topic is categorized under #縱論 and tagged as #solved.
Another significant thread, “太鉤子混亂了”, humorously dissected the diverse ideological spectrum present within the forum. Initiated by @Hatsune_miku, the post listed a colorful array of forum user archetypes, from “military-nationalists” to “neutral CN-partisans” and even “初音未來” herself (post 1). @MengXIN wryly observed that most of these identities seemed to converge in a single user (post 4), while @chw cautioned against the pitfalls of identity politics in online discussions (post 5). @ShaoQing succinctly summarized the forum’s atmosphere as a “gathering of heroes from afar, a conference of jianzhen” (post 14), using a term that implies critical and often cynical commentary on current affairs. This lighthearted yet insightful topic, tagged #灌水 and categorized under #縱論, reflects the forum’s self-awareness and its users’ ability to engage in meta-discussions about their own community dynamics. The playful tone is further emphasized by @nya’s “miku打油” comment (post 17), and @cnboy’s self-identification as a “social democrat” (post 32), adding to the topic’s whimsical exploration of forum personalities.
The topic “我真他妈要开骂了” captured user frustration with intrusive propaganda, specifically targeting a WeChat advertisement for the film Ne Zha 2. @Hatsune_miku expressed outrage at being confronted with political messaging upon opening WeChat, drawing parallels to other forms of unwelcome digital intrusions (post 1). @Rhumbos echoed this sentiment, describing the aggressive promotion as “too ruozhi” (retarded/brain-damaged) (post 2). The discussion broadened to critique the trend of “cultural propaganda” laden with political correctness, with @Hatsune_miku satirically suggesting the film’s importance was being exaggerated to the level of national mourning (post 6). @nya humorously questioned the constant comparisons between Chinese and Marvel films, feeling that Marvel was unfairly targeted in these nationalistic cinematic rivalries (post 12). @without_name expressed skepticism about the authenticity of the WeChat screenshot, suggesting it might be fabricated (post 13). The topic, categorized under #縱論 and tagged #灌水, showcases user sensitivity to perceived propaganda and their willingness to voice discontent, even with strong language. @Adler’s humorous “Ne Zha Smile Biography” meme (post 54) and @wand111’s comment about similar propaganda reaching even “pre-education departments” (post 58) further illustrate the widespread nature of this concern.
Discussions around forum functionality and user experience were evident in “论坛UI公投”, where users debated the recent changes to the forum’s user interface. @RuletheWaves criticized the new comment UI, arguing that while it aimed to improve clarity, it inadvertently disrupted the chronological flow and made it harder to track comment threads (post 8). The user pointed out that the previous version allowed users to easily see the context of replies, a feature seemingly lost in the update. @cnboy echoed the sentiment, noting that the collapsing comment threads made it difficult to find new messages (post 12). This topic, categorized under #縱論 and tagged #別讓我加tag了求你, demonstrates the community’s active involvement in shaping the forum’s platform and their direct feedback on usability issues. The discussion reflects a desire for a user-friendly interface that prioritizes clarity and ease of navigation, highlighting the importance of platform design in maintaining a positive user experience.
Creative expression and personal reflections found an outlet in the long-running topic “紙短，情長”, a space for sharing handwritten notes and poetic excerpts. @Miao-Jam continued to contribute to this thread, sharing excerpts and original writings, reflecting on the nature of creativity and the limitations of AI in capturing the essence of human expression (post 222). The user also shared a handwritten poem about spring and personal feelings (post 230), and later mentioned destroying some of their own work due to self-criticism and aesthetic concerns (post 236). @zwjzwj also contributed with an image of handwritten text (post 233), and later playfully questioned if @Miao-Jam’s avatar was also handwritten (post 238). This topic, categorized under #縱論, serves as a unique corner of the forum dedicated to personal expression and artistic sharing, showcasing a different facet of user engagement beyond topical debates and discussions. The ongoing nature of this thread, spanning several months, underscores its enduring appeal and its role in fostering a sense of community through shared creative endeavors.
Key insights from the week’s forum activity reveal a community deeply engaged with contemporary social and political issues, as evidenced by the extensive discussion on banning minors from gaming accounts (topic 5418). The forum also exhibits a strong sense of self-awareness and internal critique, exemplified by the humorous analysis of forum user archetypes (topic 5441) and the direct feedback on UI changes (topic 5444). User sentiment towards perceived propaganda and intrusive advertising is notably negative, as seen in the outcry over the Ne Zha 2 promotion (topic 5480). Furthermore, the forum provides space for creative expression and personal sharing, demonstrated by the ongoing contributions to “紙短，情長”. Technical discussions, such as the one about setting up a VPS for circumventing internet censorship (topic 5462), also indicate a tech-savvy user base. The recurring tag #別讓我加tag了求你 across various topics like “要不我開個vps建梯子的完整教程”, “《就应该拉黑使用繁体字的》”, “李白，这盛世是否如你所愿”, “忍不了了”, “誰是p社戰犯”, “论坛UI公投”, and “孝服” suggests a playful resistance to rigid categorization and a desire for more flexible tagging practices. The frequent use of #灌水 tag in topics like “太鉤子混亂了”, “我真他妈要开骂了”, “誰是p社戰犯”, “我和科比在书院杯合砍200分”, “睡不着觉”, and “關於“孝”的一些想法？” indicates a significant portion of forum activity is dedicated to informal, off-topic discussions and humorous exchanges, contributing to the forum’s social fabric. The presence of tags like #miku in “阴翳礼赞” and #初音未来 in “一些初音未来” points to specific user interests and communities within the broader forum. Topics like “
維護記錄” and “統練通知！” suggest internal forum management and school-related announcements are also part of the forum’s content. Finally, the discussion in “论坛被墙了？” and @suen’s pragmatic response (post 4) highlight the forum’s awareness of and adaptation to internet censorship challenges.
