To be fair, he didn't go looking for it, someone made a complaint thread. Why would someone complain about a thread twenty years after the fact? Because there's no witch hunt too petty for Something Awful. A thread about "hot underage females you would like to sex" would obviously be creepy as fuck today, but at the time the forums had an edgy sense of humor and the people posting there were teenagers themselves, so going back and perma-banning people for it is pretty retarded.Who is he trying to even appease with this madness? This is the exact sort of over-reaction that absolutely puts his ass in an investigative light when he's doing this shit on posts older than the people who actually are fooled with this shit.
The screenshot I posted is also funny because the quoted post is by famous game designer Cliff Bleszinski, who was 27 at the time. Now that's creepy.
