The "what's the most traumatic thing that ever happened to you?" thread from 8 or so years also also vanished and that thing would give you nightmares.

The Anime That Must Not Be Named has two sagas outside SA, both pretty good.

The first one, a US distributior licensed it under the name 'Nymphet', prompting the EIC of a big anime review site to call them and go "Why would you do this" and it turned out the licensor hadn't actually read it. They just saw people talking about it online and assumed it'd be a hot property. They dropped it within the week, prompting gross anime nerds everywhere to scream in anger and try to dox the EIC, who responded with "I review anime for a living, you can't embarrass me any more than I did with that statement"

The second one, a few years ago, some company did a Kickstarter for UNCUT COMPLETE RELEASE IN ENGLISH FINALLY and it made several times it's goal and all accounts indicate they didn't release anything, just took the money and ran.





Does anyone have the thread where someone said "post what's under your couch" and it turned into goons lifting their sofa like it was weight lifting?

I've been seeing these "load bearing" jokes a fair bit recently, but no idea what they're referring to. My thought is like a Groverhaus/beatmstrj kinda colossal DIY fuckup, that I just missed like a dumbass, but it's always been too recently for it to be either of those two specifically.

Maybe I'm just dense and in this case the joke is simply "radium's code is shite" though. :v:

I was trying to remember that time that the forums got completely broken, and the cause was that someone had put too many people on ignore.

I worry I may be that poster someday.

EDIT: I think the admins at the time posted a list of who had the most people on ignore as well, but I may be wrong on that. I'd love to see it again in this wonderful time of peaceful discourse.

CSPAM has at least one “threatened terrorism” perma. I’m sure there’s more but I don’t go in there and most of the hardcore CSPAMmers don’t post too much elsewhere.

Q) What's the message in Ashley's life and death?

A) Ashley Jean Arnold was a brave, beautiful, proud transgender woman. Her light will continue to shine and her story will without a doubt result in changes to the world around us. Other trans women will be better protected due to her sacrifice. Her death will count for something. And for now, that is enough.

the secret is wording. ideally we should be able to discuss positive ways forward to society in such a way as not to constitute terrorism.

to quote the examples above, the first and third quotes are not in fact a threat to trump's safety or in any way an incitement to violence. the first quote vaguely describes a webcomic that contains a depiction of trump's death. the webcomic does not exist. the third quote concerns an existing webcomic, strong female protagonist, and is a critique of the plot direction taken by that narrative, which is passive and not relevant to today's political climate; a potential storyline is suggested, but only as a hypothetical. i will argue that neither of these should have been permabans and the mods owe me twenty dollars

the second quote is, of course, a sincere direct call for trump's death, and in this case a permaban was appropriate. thank you to our brave staff for keeping our forums and democracy safe

It's pretty shocking. The sentiment of "people still deserve basic human rights despite their crimes" is noble but that was the absolute worst possible example to ever try to shine a spotlight on trans issues and the inability of some of those posters to not understand that is staggering.
