Like, the transphobia poo poo obviously wasn’t cool ironic or otherwise, but straight up closing FYAD seems like a slippery slope. Admins bending over backwards to please the angry mobs is never a good thing.

Anyway I predict Something Awful will end up being Something Awful in name only in the next year or two.

do people routinely post bigotry there? asking for a friend.

I didn't say it would be a good argument, I don't even think it will necessarily be someone who originally pushed for FYAD to get closed, just that someone will post it.


Maybe I'm wrong though and the next "close TCC/TFR" thread won't mention FYAD's closure at all.

Nah it was a forum of like 2 dozen people 80% of whom were posting the bigotted poo poo. The other posters just quoting and going 'lol'.

Nothing of value lost, dear friend. Stop going to bat for bigots. You can just stop.

I'm scared about what this might mean for the forums future. If Lowtax didn't give the OK for this all I see is another massive drama bomb about to go off.

Hopefully the upcoming statement regarding this issue will put us all at ease and we can go back to posting or not posting as usual.

Like... do you legitimately think every person that was posting there was an unironic nazi or what? Regardless of if the forum was funny or not that’s pretty disingenuous. But whatev, it is what it is and I’m sure you’ll just infer I’m a bigot anyway :shrug:
