just saw a thread with a title about short sleeved shirts get gassed, Is it true that goons have a problem with short sleeved shirts? A classic goon niggle or pet peeve? Why do short sleeved shirts grind everybody's gears so much on the forums idgi

it got gassed because it was a zero-effort crap OP trash thread

your thread seems ok because you're at least asking an honest question

no its more like if 95% of the posts here are crap the ones that are modded seem entirely arbitrary or just whatever personally offends you which is lame. just embrace the crap otherwise whats the point of still hanging around here?

Well your percentage is off but I'll ignore that. So you're positing that there is no reason for anyone to "hang around here". For the sake of argument, let's say that's true. Why then are you still here?

well i said the reason to hang around here is to enjoy the last poo poo posting stage of this forums life, modding seems to go entirely against that mentality

What's funny about this is that there have been people posting "the forums are dying" since at least 2000. So yeah I'm not worried by screeching harpies like you that THIS IS THE END

in fact it just makes it more fun because you fuckers just keep coming back again and again

right well there used to be 3k people regularly browsing and now its like 500 plus there used to be tons of awesome mega threads and whatever now its just meme-y burger stuff. theres still a kind of charm to it though, this is just a new stage of the forums life its like in the golden years and you cant be as aggressive with the modding. like i said it just seems arbitrary or whatever personally annoys you

yeah okay you want to keep the same tight rear end mod style as when the forum actually required effort because you cant accept it is pretty much dead this time, i got it. whens the new big influx coming in? maybe in another 10 years when everyone has a teenager they can introduce this internet nostalgia to? lol

If I wanted to be Abe or Senior Woodchuck I could easily do that. But I don't. It's not the mods that are the problem, it's morons like you who think you know everything.

But whatever, do what you like. You'll keep being an angry internet sadsack, and I'll keep being a mod. That works for me.
