Speaking of ozma, I got a couple questions lol. A) whats the story behind the ozma porn? Was it just her getting doxxed or was there a funny story behind that discovery? B) why ozma fat? Having seen said ozma porn, she didn't look particularly fat. Was that just goons being dicks because it got under her skin?

Because on the internet then, and still now but nowhere near as bad, being a woman was automatically bad. And being a woman who didn't look like they had just escaped a concentration camp meant you were fat, especially if the person calling you fat was a fat neckbeard.

So it was just goons being dicks. Sad.

Not defending the past stuff, but Ozma was the most visible admin back in the days when making fun of a mod for any reason was probatable or bannable. So people liked to say that stuff specifically to get under her skin.

Does he think you get permabanned for leaving EVE? Like goonfleet is the Yakuza? Nah I looked up his rapsheet and he's threadbanned hard enough there to be under threat of perma if he ever posted in it again.

RFC2324 posted:Speaking of ozma, I got a couple questions lol. The porn was some porno about a woman masturbating in a bathroom stall, who happened to kind of look like Ozma. The fat thing is because she was a woman and a site admin on a web forum where people like to trash talk anyone with a mod or admin star. People will talk about how she created the "catlady GBS" phenomenon but apparently she hated that phase of GBS and was one of the people who set up the GBS 2.0 reboot. And even that didn't really remove whatever any given poster mean by "catlady GBS." There's still cat-fanatics on PI and YOSPOS. The whole range of self-flagellating/pedantic tones and getting mad at random news articles from old GBS is still represented between CSPAM and PYF.

Wasn't Majorian an IK in the USPol thread? You couldn't pay me to be thread janitor for that thread.

Kchama posted:So what's the story with Majorian? They were IK of D&D and then suddenly posted a banme and was gone. Yeah I wondered what happened but no one seemed to care or notice. I think someone said he went to B&R but I don't know if one specific thing prompted him to leave. At a guess it was over the weird concentration camp/not concentration camp poo poo that D&D and CSPAM hate each over.

# ? Apr 8, 2021 20:34 |
he got de-ik'd I think, and in response autobanned. I've noticed he was consistently the most complained about IK in uspol, so maybe something prompted the mods to de-ik him.

He also posted in the C-SPAM "let's mock D&D" thread which as many posters observed was a thoroughly goony conflict of interests.

The tag line was “le petite morte” although I forget the actual name of the site... last time I mentioned it (I think in this thread?) someone knew it. The bathroom stall porn thing was a lookalike, though, if I remember correctly.

Sigh ...... read the FAQ please. The mod of gbs in 2009 was never filmed having sex in a bathroom stall. Everyone knows this. They were, however, filmed jacking off, but only their face. Maybe lurk more????

A lot of the mod stuff from '08-13ish was before SASS and CWCwiki/KF really kicked the gently caress off so tons of those people were posting here on a regular basis as their brand of lovely humor hadn't been recognized for what it was, hate speech. In general the outspoken female mods got an absolute river of poo poo for their jobs and misogyny was definitely a part of it. The fact that an era was referred to "cat-lady" times is kind of proof that a lot of the criticism seemed more concerned with gender then any actual facts.
