But that's not what the rule is for at all. The rule is there so that there's one week, it gets posted in the AM and then the next week, it gets posted in the PM, not "post it at random times." It's so that there can be a post every other week for approximately the daytime for people in places not in the US, instead of having it only be posted in the afternoons by US PST standards.

If people want to post it in the allotted time slots as soon as they happen, what does it even matter? They're literally abiding by the rule. People are making this so much more complicated than it really is, and for seemingly no reason other than to complain! They say post it one week in the am and one week in the pm according to PST, so when those times hit, that's when people post them. That's literally the rule.

As someone who isn't in the US, it's really aggravating to see US RPers freaking out about something not accommodating them for once. 90% of DWRP runs on US times and everyone else in non-US timezones gets screwed. Welcome to the rest of the world's experience, we've been living like this for years.

Seriously, I'm in the US, and I don't get their mentality. These people are being so weird about this, it makes absolutely no sense!

let's not pretend the reason the on-the-dot tfln poster is doing it is to actually make the meme more available to non americans. they're doing it to be petty

There are more places in the world than the US and Europe though.

Like sure the poster might be doing it out of spite now, but the wall-eyed hissyfits about when it was posted came first. You brought this on yourselves and continuing to flip the fuck out when it’s posted is encouraging further spite posting.

TFLN didn’t even hit captcha in 24 hours. It’s not the end of the world if you can’t post your TLs as soon as it goes up.
