Right now undead are at the top of my shit list. Undead are complete fuckers. Those geists are fuckers. Necromancers are fuckers. Necrosavants are big time fuckers. Skeletons aren't too bad except when they bleed everyone in the company. Zombos are at least not too bad.


I'm fine with the krust as long as it doesn't get spammed like some lovely twitch chat.

Also, Lowtax, post on your drat forums. Even if it feels weird sometimes. The more you are here, the less people will be weird about it. As it is now, you showing up here is more of an event than just Lowtax loving around on the forums.

Lol, ZDR posting all of their ban totals on page 2 is pretty much admitting he's taking money from Lowtax's wallet by permabanning them. Nonviolent J alone reregged 14 times. Of loving course revenue is down.

I PM'd Lowtax and said unprobate me like he did to DGSW and Nooner and even ban me so I have to re reg and get a new avatar, I'd happily contribute to revenue... No repsonse over the last few months.

It's useless, contentless-free, wastes of skins like yourself that are causing revenue to plummet. Nobody want's to join a forum full of a tiny but excruciatingly loud group of halfwits who spend all their time talking about how much these forums suck, talking about the FAR SUPERIOR ALTERNATIVE skull mom, and making grade-school calibre photoshops of Krusty doing "wacky" things.

Stop trying to blame the mods. The problem here is YOU.

Seriously guys, 99% of the users here have absolutely ZERO problems with the way the moderation is handled.. Unfortunately, the 1% that does, all seem to have those loving retarded Krust avatars, which just makes it easier for all of us to monitor and ban them. Have you ever stopped for a moment and entertained the notion that perhaps, just PERHAPS, the mods are banning the completely unfunny retarded, which just happens to be the Krust Krew, and perhaps the problems does not lie so much with the moderation team but the group of posters who believe they can ignore any rules, post any garbage, and expect to get away with it without any punishment from the mods?

Nope, I'm simply tired of the nonstop bickering going on here which causes extra work for the mods and admins. None of the people I'm purging have ever added anything with humor and effort to the forums, so I feel absolutely no remorse for their loss. We need to separate the white noise from the content producers. reward the intelligent, funny, content producers, and kick the white noise the gently caress out of here.

I agree 100%. And I really think you could get more perspective on how much people still like the forums if you visited some of the subforums. Games/PYF is always busier than GBS, and those forums run nearly problem free.
Not all of us hate the forums, I would be miserable if Reddit was the only place to post because gently caress those unfunny jerks. Its just that the *always mad* squad seems to follow you around when you show up.

At the stroke of midnight immediately following April Fools' Day, 2017, Something Awful admin Zen Death Robot had a mini-meltdown in the Questions, Comments, & Suggestions subforum and either banned or perma-probated several pivotal GBS posters. This was the event that got QCS renamed to QQcs:

~~You can find several instances of such punishments on pages 2 and 3 here.~~

^^^This was the day the music comedy died in GBS. A large splinter faction of GBS's most iconic, prolific, and committed posters jumped ship as a result of these decisions and ultimately began spending their time posting at a place called Skullmund, SA's latest offsite. If you haven't heard about Skullmund, it's a place on Xenforo where all the GBS superstars like Nooner and Dad Gay So What went to post because they were tired of being unable to talk to their pals online. Now they have a safe posting space where they can share their own brand of irreverent humor without worrying about being silenced by report-haters or FYAD's chain-probations.

Mostly, the people who went to Skullmund wanted their own space to post chat threads where people wouldn't report them out of hand for pushing the envelope - that and they want to be able to post with their friends who have been probated from SA until 2028.

Dad Gay So What has had his permaprobe removed, and so has Nooner.

That leaves the following users, who were also caught in the aftermath with perma's on 4/2/17:
Jerry Mumphrey
A Misanthrope
thathonkey
Nonviolent J

My (simple) suggestion is to offer a blanket pardon on all the permaprobes that were issued. Leave the perma's for grievous crimes against humanity, please.

My (more complicated) suggestion is to open up a "Spooky Skull and Crossbones"-themed subforum and name it Skullmund. Make Saint Isaiah's Boner the mod and see what happens.

Love Pupkin

Like this is the poo poo that would have been honestly mocked back in early SA days, but the forum clique here is so far up its own rear end they don't even notice.

People don't come to SA to be nannied by computer touches obsessed with rules. Sorry man but that's the honest truth. The people who make photoshops like krusty are the same people who got this forum up to steam years ago, and the number of people who'll create interesting and funny content for the forum without pushing any boundaries is exactly 0.

A few months ago you said you wanted the forum to focus on making funny things, and stop neurotically obsessing with rules, what happened to that?

IMO as long as the stuff you post is funny the mods seem to take a pretty wide berth before banning you or whatever

so just post funny stuff maybe??
