Go to an offsite that was created in reaction to the lovely moderation and nazis on SA instead of one created because people weren't allowed to be nazi enough, for a change.

WampaLord posted:

Anyone who wants an invite, just go to https://breadnroses.net/ and register, I will approve, let me know the username you select if it is different.

Also be patient if it takes a little bit, there is a queue I am getting through as quickly as I can.


BreadnRoses already has a lot of people who've moved over, seems rad and actually has good QOL features SA doesn't have (e.g. a dark mode). If you want to register they're letting everyone in for free while GBS burns and the entire admin/mod team is in some kind of standoff with Lowtax for apparently beating a third woman so yeah.

They're opening up the new forum for the flood of new users. People using the same name as their SA name will be approved asap. If you choose a different name just PM WampaLord to let him know and he'll let you through.

I have no proof, but that site was spun off during some C-SPAM drama and one of the mods there may be a sex pest. Can somebody confirm this?

Cool so theoretically, if I have to rent one half of my duplex to an appreciative family so that I can afford my mortgage for the other half, I'm subhuman scum on these kinder gentler forums? Or am I good if I just sprinkle in some "full communism now" memes here and there?

I mean let's not jump to conclusions, I just want to make sure I'm not an outcast in this place. I lost my career in the military for being outed as gay, so that kinda makes me a leftist, but I also had to stand armed watch sometimes, so that kinda makes me a cop. How many leftist points do I need to be accepted.

Ehh, that site is teetering on the brink of self destruction anyway. SA managed to last 20 years, but offshoot forums almost always collapse horribly.

In this case it's largely consisting of the users too awful to exist even here, and I'm sure as with nearly all SA offshoots the owner is one mental breakdown away from burning down everything.

Sure but you've been posting for as long as me and have 20 times the rap sheet... but then again, if mods knew... maybe a bigger rap sheet means you're a better person than I? It's a topsy-turvy world, this 2020 :shrug:

My life is a joke to you? My point was I like the SA community because there's spaces for people who use drugs or invest money or own guns, and people (at least more than anywhere else I've seen online) respect each other and are given the benefit of the doubt. It's been slipping into a hivemind more over the years but it's still mostly good.

This new forum rolls right off the bat with "anyone caught complimenting capitalism is in deep doo doo" which gives me pause. I don't consider myself a professional victim but I've been discriminated against in my real life (gay veteran living in Boston gets to be called "human being" and "baby killer" in the same week) and don't want to live in fear of persecution on an internet forum for having radical ideas like "yeah it would be nice if we could all live in a hippie commune but I guess this is a more workable better system for the moment". I dunno, I'm not a D&D poster or some super smarty. It just feels hostile. That site is asking for :tenbux: just like this one, maybe at least be evaluate their leadership on a critical level too before everyone dives over there.

Nah, the prevailing wisdom is that you should literally die! I've seen plenty of people advocating for the murder of everyone who rents around here, but that's Left-Approved Murder, so it's fine.

edit: I live in a house with one of my best friends in the world, and I contribute to the household expenses to the tune of $200 USD. It's not much, but it's what I can afford on disability. You know, working together to collectively share the communal burden, taking from each according to their ability, which I was told was some kind of ideal, and it really bums me out to know that a significant percentage of the people who follow philosophies supposedly all about basic be-nice-to-each-other poo poo are treating it like enough of a fuckin' tribal war that if poo poo hit the fan, they'd literally be my mortal enemy, trying to kill me and the people I love for an rear end-backwards, monkey's-paw interpretation of an ideology,

Nobody is actually committing murder, though. Plus, you know, ideological purity is necessary. Opposing the death penalty is pretty sus though.

It is, it took about 2 weeks for the site to start eating itself and the posters to turn on one another. You might as well go to LPzone if you want to go to an SA off-shoot and even that's... dead.

I think you'll be fine but I'm new there so maybe there's some secret hidden part of the site that's really evil or something idk v:shobon:v

Also I saw the $10 reg thing too but they said it's free for everyone going from SA right now. All you need to do is either register with the same username that you have here and wait to be approved, or if you choose a different username let the WampaLord person know (I just sent them a PM and got in without any hassle).

They have a forum list similar to here so general and tech and video games and arts etc. and I think people might want it to fail but it seems to be doing fine? Reminds me of early ResetERA after NeoGAF imploded under similar circumstances. The only difference to SA I can see is shitposting isn't tolerated which they spell out in the rules, they have a two strike system and then you're gone for good which honestly seems like a good idea. SA has thrived off having people shitpost and just keep paying $10 every time they're banned so there's people that poo poo up threads who would have been perma'd on any reasonable forum long ago, but they get to keep coming back here and making GBS threads things up for $10 because sports cars aren't cheap and so there's a financial incentive to make people toxic here that other places lack.

What you do is your choice but from what I've seen the place seems to operate on a common sense "Don't be an idiot because it actually has real consequences here" philosophy which is a good thing, imo.
