Luke Skywalker kills Han Solo's son at the climax of Episode VII

"We gathered a list of the worst posters, and lowtax banned them all at once" or something like that. I remember "banned them all at once" strongly. It ruled. Knowing what I know now, I bet lowtax came out of nowhere and found a thread listing troublesome posters and banned them without talking to anyone. My favorite part is it included Ruddha, one of the funniest posters ever imo.

Maybe when you get the site you could undo a few bans/permas? Not for genuine arseholes, but for a few actually funny posters that might entice Ruddha and others like them to return as well.. Whether they actually return or not is down to them.

People being super performative about constantly loving and posting cat pics was one of the worst things about old internet. Like as much as people make fun of epic bacon people the epic catte picture people were way more widespread and also way more self-righteous because if you ever said anything other than effusive praise about their posting it means you're only doing so because you're a cat-hating monster.

It was basically the exact same school of dysfunction as the modern Qanon people who think that anyone that challenges their conspiracy theories only does so because they're a adrenochrome-chugging child molester, only with a slightly lower body count.

I was agreeing with this until it turned into a Qanon thing??

First account "Of Science!", second account "Guy Mann", third account "Sleeveless". Originally just a bad-take generator who sometimes have good points hidden behind an abrasive surface, now seems to be just writing many words to rile people up / bore people for trolling purposes to show off to their discord expat partner. Currently mod-sanctioned to be a group bullying target on the Internet.

my first experience with him was him kramering into the estranged parents thread yelling at everyone that they were horrible selfish brats for rubbernecking at some of the truly insane posts on a forum for said parents (usually looking for people to reaffirm that they did nothing wrong and their sweet obedient child was brainwashed into being a heartless monster, instead of coming to terms with that their adult children’s lives no longer revolve around them). then when bobbie was demodded he kramered back in for it to be closed because it was her “pet project” (it was not).

anyways further spottings of him in the wild have not changed my opinion, like when he compared being called guy mann as the same thing as deadnaming a trans person.

Years ago I was bummed when I noticed Of Science! stopped posting, though that may have partially been because their av kicked rear end. I kind of laughed when I found out later that they were the same person that pissed me off so bad I made myself stop visiting the forums for six months because it had me realize I was getting way too invested in online stuff. I’ve since kind of come around on them, when they’re not just trolling they can still abrasively have some good points and I always like when someone has that 3 olives/Irish Joe/iluvlortab thing going on where the whole community comes together in mutual antipathy for a poster.

Younger people than that, too. It was insanely popular and lived on in reruns forever. Though it may be harder to get into for young people now that smartphones and all that are ubiquitous, it has so many arguments that would be ended by google in like ten seconds.

You're thinking of a different guy: Guy Goodbody. He was posting things other posters deemed "mildly interesting" at best, and it got to the point where some were bothered enough by it to create a "PYF Mildly Interesting Pictures" thread to try to contain it. It was either one of the most effective trolls targeting the highly specific PYF instinct for Coldly Compiled Lists, or maybe it was sincere and humor is subjective? :shrug:

Unless i misread a post, he also compared being furry to being trans (in a "trapped in the wrong body" sense) in the previous sagas thread, but that was right before everything exploding re: KM, so it just slid right under the radar.
