One day like in Black Mirror or Her, everything Lowtax put on the Internet will be used to resurrect him in bot form, which may or may not have actual consciousness. So he's sure to live again at some point.

Epcot will have a Hall of Internet Superstars consisting of increasingly out of date AIs of forgotten one-hit wonders on the internet.

Lowtax will be placed between the Numa-Numa Guy and Fred.

Why would a machine copy be more sapient than the actual Lowtax was when he was alive?

Sorry, can't edit prior post, moderators--can you give me back my ability to edit posts, please?

I wouldn't compare Lowtax to someone like the Numa Numa Guy. The Numa Numa guy was actually a nice guy, and Lowtax's ultimate failure was due entirely to his idiocy. Due to what SA was, it could have been an icon of the internet for a long time if its moderation wasn't so toxic and mentally ill. Gary Brolsma, a humble and kind man, on the other hand took a situation that normally lends itself to 15 minutes of fame and was able to have it last several years, monetized it, and he is still doing well and still has money. Gary Brolsma had less and turned it into more, Lowtax ultimately took one of the largest cultural forces of the internet and turned it not only into nothing, but his own death.

Yah I did boxing in my younger days. That shit hurts.

I was out of the sport well before Richard’s fight, but remember reading as a lurker that he was going into it, and hoping it was some sort of kayfabe. ‘Rasslin gimmick in typical SA goof troop style of the time.

In retrospect, him being completely unprepared (as opposed to being able to take a few punches and rounds) was the best outcome for Richard. That shit was over as soon as it began, and not a second too soon. He likely avoided the spine-powdering hits he could have had landed onto him.

I don’t believe that the punches Richard took had ANY impact on his health long term. He took a few good connections, but he was young and resilient, and it’s not like he got hit by a $20 cookie delivery truck.

Richard’s spine was shit because he had an itinerant unhealthy lifestyle where he was hunched over a computer screen in a race car chair for 20 hours a day doing pills and eating like shit. All he needed to do to fix his body was to start using it. Even at 45, he could have had gotten into decent enough shape by just having a basic workout regime. A cheap craigslist weight bench, good running shoes, an excel sheet to monitor weight/reps/laps, and he wouldn’t be a 67 year old woman trapped in 45 year old lowtax’s body.

I’m a handful of years greener than Richard, and like Richard indulge in pills, sin, sloth, and gourmet pies, but I’m in better shape than that dumbfuck ever had been (if not closer to Uwe).

Humans are amazingly resilient. But definitely not to bullets

I did boxing until I moved to the US. Thank God no brain damage. I think most people do not appreciate the cardio required. Uwe could have not thrown a single punch and Lowtax would have passed out in three rounds of sparring, just trying to keep his hands up.

If Lowtax has any real injuries from the sparring match, he would have sued Uwe into oblivion. Like the waiver shit, those things get thrown out all the time, especially in a situation where it looks like one party manipulated a second party. And Lowtax had the money to get a lawyer. It would have been easy as shit to get a settlement if anything close to what Lowtax claimed, actually occurred.

Medical/risk/whatever waivers are written to show your insurance company that you've done a bare minimum of due diligence. I got real mad after spending too much time doing in depth risk assessments before I wrote my first ones only for the lawyer to tell me that. I'm sure senior staff got a good chuckle at the effort I put in.

Lowtax over the years pretty much claimed that he was tricked into signing a legal document that allowed Uwe Bolle to victimize him in front of countless witnesses. Whenever someone ever pushed him into "why didn't you sue" he would always fall back on the claim he signed a waiver, hence he couldn't sue.

It's so silly because no one can just write up a contract that legalizes crimes. One can't just sign away their basic legal rights and protections.

That is a good point; when will this thread be closed? LowT is dead, there can't be much else to post about.

There are plenty of goons cycling in to post about Loltax and while repetitive, it is content. They'll all undoubtedly be trannies/furries/pedos and could provide content in and of themselves. The fight for the few shekels Rich didn't spend on tanny hookers and drugs has only just begun in the legal thread. Most people don't read that subforum, so it's only natural for this thread to be kept open and updated about it.

Momtax is furious and lawyers want to be paid. Rich's rotting corpse will likely provide lols for at least a year or two.
