A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don’t be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

We are agents of chaos I’ve created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named “mapporncirclejerk”

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say “take time to grow and come back when you are ready”.

Of course, the bit of Ohio up by Lake Erie is actually Western Connecticut.

I'm in the current Ohio. Under no circumstances should we be granted any additional territory.

In fact we should delete Ohio by giving some to Pennsylvania, some to wv and some to Kentucky. Nothing to Indiana because fuck that waste of space.

We demand you return Toledo.

Stop playing, we all know that nobody wants Toledo.

I like how even Ohio wants nothing to do with Florida.

Mexico? Could be Ohio, someday.

Florida? ... Nah, we're good.

also, missed opportunity to call our favorite vacation state Ohawaiio.

Ah yes, the Ohio of Babel.

In the good timeline, this is how all the states would have been named.

Has "Rand McNally" vibes

God what a horrifying idea.

This actually makes a lot of sense. The country seems to be going to shit, and Ohio is a shithole. I’ve done the math, it checks out.
