No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I know you can visit some theme parks at certain times of year to avoid many children, however what I mean are theme parks built more for imaginative and fun-loving adults.

Take some of the park rides you might find in family theme parks that appeal to both adults and children, but instead of avoiding elements that may confuse/frighten children, they're allowed to get more detailed or whatever may be more fun for people. Fwiw I'm aware of some smaller scale themed venues (particularly some horror-related ones), but I feel like I'm blanking on any obvious larger scale ones.

Honestly, I wanna know as well. I've been enjoying Carowinds and I enjoyed Universal, but they're both quite family-oriented. Maybe Cedar Point is more adult? Seems like they have lots of big rides... But they also have a Camp Snoopy area there...

I'm so glad I'm not the only person that gets the same "theme park" vibes from MMOs. It really takes me out of it when someone is doing the same quest as me but is a few steps ahead so they trigger a unique animation or dialogue from the quest giver, and then I experience the same animation or dialogue a few minutes later. Kinda like waiting in line for a ride but you can hear or see some parts of the ride as you progress through the line.

If a bunch of them have coordinated a themed red light district, I guess that may count for the most explicit approach to this idea, but I don't know of any that have, albeit maybe parts of Vegas have given that a run for its money.

Universal does Halloween horror nights that is very adult oriented. It's in their normal park but they are open a standalone Halloween themed park in las Vegas soon that will be similar but full time.

Busch Gardens too. It's pretty fun, we've gone a couple times and had a blast.

In what country or continent?

Honestly any, even if I may never get a chance to visit, I like learning about some of them, particularly ride designs and engineering. (Also for those lurking, this question is mainly inspired by having watched some more Defunctland videos lately.)
