Hm, hard question. I'd say probably Monopoly, I haven't played it in ages but I remember really struggling with it (mainly because Maths is my weakpoint) and people just expected me to understand everything

Professionalism within the staff teamI'm not upset by your posts. But I just think, to put it blatantly, that there's been more than one occasion where I've thought 'Oh, that's a bit rude'
It doesn't matter if you wrote it with the intention of it not being personally directed towards people, but they could easily think otherwise. Yes, free speech does exist but I wouldn't just go telling a group of users I disagreed with to 'STFU' just because i'd seen their posts a bunch and was tired of having to explain something. They'd probably speak up with me and tell me that i'm being rude and more than likely- i'd get some sort of consequence. Free speech is good, but in moderation (heh, like a moderator. Get it, get it?) just uh- please take into consideration what i've said? I'd appreciate it, thanks for taking it well :)Also, to prove i'm not alone in thinking this. I've already had 2 DMs from people I don't regularly talk to saying either thank you for speaking up or I agree with you.

Professionalism within the staff teamJust before I start, I love the effort moderators put in, I love the moderators and I love the staff team. At the end of the day, i'm just a silly 14 year old on the Internet showing her opinions. I don't want to cause upset nor outrage but this is just a thing I have picked up on and don't particularly like in certain situations. The staff themselves have said multiple times that we have the right to submit any complaints as long as we keep things civil, I intend to do that. In short, don't ban me please. I'm really scared.
So I don't like the attitude that a staff member shows sometimes, yes I think in certain aspects it is necessary but it can get out of hand and could easily offend or cause upset to certain users. I'm not going to say their username, as I don't want to rub it into the dirt as you will. I still respect and appreciate all the work this staff member has put into bdns. I do not think it is appropriate to tell kids, when you are an adult to 'STFU'. I think that especially as part of the staff team, you should show patience and a bit more respect, even towards posts we all believe to be a bit dumb, a bit stupid (probably how you'll see this one)
As a member of staff I think you should be a bit more considerate, sometimes I'll agree with your views but still, could you maybe DM the users instead? Posting and telling them they're stupid or whatever can be humiliating and will also probably be why most users are just a little bit more intimidated by you than they should be. Users should feel comfortable and confident when talking to a member of staff.Also, there have been multiple posts that they've made with similar attitudes. I'm not just seeing one and getting all worked up. I've had conversations with multiple users saying that they have similar views on this but yet didn't really want to say anything, which is completely understandable but I don't want this behaviour to continue going under the radar (or over?) but I also don't want other users to witness this behaviour and think it is accepted, it is not. I could be sounding hypocritical here, but the main difference here is that I'm no longer a higher up staff member and since rejoining the almighty, beloved public relations team, I have been deliberate to make sure that I don't come across as rude or disrespectful towards any users. This is waaaaay longer than planned, but the point came across (right?)
Just a reminder too, please do not try guessing the staff member even if it seems blatantly obvious to you. Also, remember to keep it civil in the replies. Thank you.

Time Travel, a community effort research project.I think time travel in both directions is at least theoretically possible, but they're very different challenges.
Going forward in time seems much more realistic since we already know that time can be affected by speed and gravity. If someone could travel close to the speed of light, or spend time near an extremely strong gravitational source like a black hole, less time would pass for them compared to people on Earth. In a sense, they'd be traveling into the future. We already observe tiny versions of this effect with satellites and astronauts, so the science behind it is pretty solid.
Going back in time is where things get much more speculative. I've read about ideas involving quantum entanglement and black holes, but as far as I know, there's still no evidence that any of them can actually send information or matter into the past. The math behind some theories suggests it might be possible, but there are so many unanswered questions, especially when it comes to paradoxes and causality.
Personally, I think traveling forward in time is something humanity could potentially achieve on a larger scale someday. Traveling backward in time feels like it would require us to discover entirely new physics, or at least understand parts of the universe that we're still completely missing. Either way, it's one of the most fascinating concepts in science because the more we learn about time, the less straightforward it seems to be.
