Weren’t there some people on KF who tried to stir up trouble by saying they were FYAD user so-and-so and those posts were used as evidence that FYAD users posted on KF?

Yes. And iirc KF is on some fancy "modern" forum software like Xenforo where you can change your username if you'd like, like on Discord or Twitter. There were a few posters who said they were combing the thread for proof of links to FYAD and KF, but really nothing sounds like it'd be more poisonous to your mental well-being than reading hundreds of pages of bitter psychos alternating between conspiracy crafting stuff they barely understand and deliberately posting in a way to troll anyone lurking the thread.

Doesn't help that some anonymous people bought CascadeBeta a series of grossly transphobic redtext avatars based around 'Barney'.

Also I am/was a complete loving idiot for taking Lowtax's drunken stupor side of FYAD being the next incarnation of the third reich and the resulting vice article and also being skeptical about the KM scam stuff coming up a lot in QCS by them and time has shone the light of truth on such matters and I am sorry for being a shitbitch dingdong fucko moron.

i always thought it was hypocritical that the anti-fyad crew said the problem with fyad was that it was host to racial slurs and trans/homophobic language, regardless of intent. but there was a thread in tgrs at the time specifically for posting examples of people offsite being explicitly racist or homo/transphobic. just something i never brought up in the past but feel comfortable whining about now

Maybe Jeffery will fix the title system to require an account to buy them, so that they could at least somewhat be tracked.

Assuming Jeffery ever actually buys the forum.

Wasn't that ZDR?
Edit: Arf is right, it was mostly lowtax saying that so the information is really unreliable

So I'm just going to say it because the thought crossed my mind even though I ultimately don't think it's the case and it's a pretty gross accusation to make at the end of the day but given that we don't know anything about the latter other than what KM claims to have received and given the anonymous nature of avatar purchasing... well is it at all possible that maybe they didn't actually happen?

I mean people are pretty gross so gun to my head I'd err on believing it still, but am I crazy to be skeptical?

E: I'm questioning the latest round specifically. I don't doubt that she almost certainly received threats like that at some point

That was zdr and lowtax framed that as zdr being a heroin addict or some poo poo. But who knows what the actual real story is, everything lowtax has ever claimed is questionable at best now

I wonder if there's some way to repurpose whatever code is used to keep track of who uploaded a FYAD flag and apply that to SA avatars?

Ah, OK. I remember the asking-for-donations thread (and they didn't pretend the money was going to anyone else, so not like KM in that regard) and then them disappearing. Didn't remember who it was or that it was Lowtax who posted about it.

i mean, it is a possibility, if you want to believe the absolute worst of people. I dont think its self inflicted, but thats the thing, there is literally no way of knowing because the people who made this website were albert einstein style geniuses

There is a slight difference between commiserating about awful people saying awful things, and actually posting slurs as a primary source.

I think in the end being skeptical of that specific thing is both gross and completely unnecessary, considering there is much funnier poo poo to make fun of that is both proven and not gross.
