BOSS MAKES A DOLLAR,
YOU MAKE A DIME,
I'LL LICK HIS BOOT TILL THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS SHINE.

I know what’s going on:

“Those of you with accounts that haven’t been banned you know what to do.”

Something Sensitive directive

I’m not saying that Lowtax didn’t gently caress up but a lot of these pissed off posts are part of a campaign to inflame the community much more and sow greater anger. Again I’m not saying there shouldn’t be anger but there’s gasoline being poured on an already huge bonfire.

I’m sure other websites competing with SA and disgruntled ex members have the same idea.

Again I’m not implying that anger is wrong in this situation.

If Something Sensitive is powerful enough to take us down, we kind-of deserve to be taken down.

I had no idea any of this was going on, I just happened to log in for the first time in months (maybe years) because I was bored at work.

My return wasn't the happy one that I hoped it to be.

Pretty sure it has more to do with people who have been in the subforums and stayed out of GBS coming in to get the latest news on the future of their favorite games/politics/computer/sports/pets/food/podcasts/books/guns/drugs/coupons/whatever forum.

On a good night there'd be about 500 people in GBS before all this went down. But there's a ton of other, more specific subforums and while none of those may have THAT many posters, when they all go to the same place at once, it's a pretty decent number.

i stopped checking in mostly after the pandemic hit, not even sure why. also partly because of the earlier drama and forum closures. is there a thread that has all the info for whatever the gently caress this recent drama was? or was that locked away? or is talking about it bannable?
