Bigot Brigade Something Awful and Friends - The roller-coaster train-wreck embarrassing downfall of a Web 1.0 giant and its tick offspring like from Cloverfield

How can they be so stupid as to keep tripping over their own girldicks with this?

I looked over the rules for the lolcow forum here. Sixteen words, another hundred or so of commentary. It's straightforward and people understand them. Null makes sure they're enforced pretty evenly, and shitbirds get ejected relatively quickly. If you don't like the rules, you can fuck off and leave.

Meanwhile over on SA there's no agreement on any topic and Jeff's too chickenshit to actually enforce anything. Let's have hundreds of pages of discussion about whether it's okay to call for the site owner to be violently raped. And that site owner... just sort of lets it happen? What a cuck.
I wonder what the rules are for trying to seduce jeff

That's always been one of the biggest problems of the site. The mods chosen are almost always over-sensitive dickheads who play blatant favorites and go easy on whoever is perceived as a protected group. If anything, that's one of the reasons why Troon both became a term and the definition of it from all the lonely fat male goons choosing to become trannies for the social benefits it gets them.
 
New discussion guidelines.

Helldump has been dead for 14 years; the majority of goons were still their original gender back during the brief period when Helldump existed from 2007-2009.

It's fascinating that SA is so stagnant that the admins still treat this ancient forgotten forum as some kind of boogeyman.

It's actually pretty difficult, tbh. Kiwi Farms is extremely straight forward - the rules are identical everywhere on the site. If you post in Stinkditch, A&N, Games, whatever, they may be tiny variations but the rules are identical.

Something Awful's sub forums all have their own sets of rules - some of them wildly different and that's the main issue. What forum A deems acceptable (aka saying Faggot, Retard, or Nigger in FYAD) is a literal hate crime in a different forum (like D&D or CSPAM) to a point where there's tons of legal fighting over where someone should post and how they should post. It's also a forum that covers a huge variety of topics so they can't really have a uniform set of rules (aka the rules for shitposting in a "Post a picture of a Cat thread" is different than "Race Relations in America thread").

There's also all of the wormy addendums to the rules for "special" people - aka you can say "nigger" if you are black and "cunt" if you're Aussie, only for people to try and rules lawyer/purity test those rules too.

Then there's the user - a Something Awful goon - one of the worst people on the internet. They have to be coddled like children and constantly fight like retards and if you discipline them (timeouts, bans, or permabans) they're going to just constantly cry about it on offsites, discords, or video game guilds. They will email you, they will call you, they will move heaven and earth to avenge their loss of $10 (or their 6 hour time out). Every SA discord has a #drama channel that's always bumping about how the site doesn't lean left enough or whatever the issue of the day is.

I can see why Lowtax and Jeff just throw their hands up and leave, although I have no idea why Jeff bought the site from Lowtax's corpse.
 
The reason why Jeff bought the site is very simple, he's a very sad man who has far too much of himself mentally and socially invested in the site over the years, so he decided to make the next logical step and follow them up with equally bad financial investments. He's literally said that he feels something akin to religious nationalism towards SA.

A mod way, way overthinks our ratings system (I included his stupid Defend Equality pfp because he donated money to people who will never, ever be grateful for his "allyship")

Stay safe, Gun Goons, and don't bitch when 99% of your website votes for politicians that want to take away your guns.

I seriously, seriously, seriously doubt there's a ton of "straight white cis men" left on SA, and even less who are "armed" and for all that equality bullshit.

Also putting it out there once again Cyrano has cucked multiple times to inter-forum harassments after shootings and is a Weimar Republic fetishist himself. For those that don't know, Weimar Republic era of Germany was responsible for a lot of early trans research and advocation for child sexuality. The rise of the Third Reich was directly after this, and pink triangles abounded.
 
Sorry for the double post (don't probate me), but I'm feeling contemplative, so I have a question prompt. As cringe as Something Awful is, it's not the worst of the old-school forums out there, right? Like, my current rankings are:

1) AIDS: RPGnet Forums
2) HIV: Reset Era
3) Fail: Something Awful

What do you guys think?

SA is not as bad as those places, but its fallen a longer way and frankly has been the site of some uniquely grotesque internet drama, even compared to here. Like the very fact that its owner and most important personality for 20 years ended up blowing his own brains out with nobody missing him kind of says it all really.

SA is the source, it's worse for that reason alone.

TFR goons are the types of gun owners who would proudly brag about how they're not """single issue voters""" and vote for every gun-grabbing Dem on their ballot. I posted there a ton back in the SA glory days and am not at all surprised at all to see Cyrano is a cucked eunuch, too.
 
Hmm, I do wonder what the source is, but is it really SA? Are the cat ladies of SA to blame for current year?
I'd say internet culture wise, once Tumblr types were allowed to fester on SA, it all spread from there because SA was the source for a lot of internet memes and some culture. It's a focal point of that type of hard leftist insanity.

If only it were that simple. Last I checked, not only do different subforums have their own rules - different threads within those subforums have their own different set of rules on top of that.

It's a rats-nest of overlapping sesnsitivities, basically.

So people mention the tumblr influx because of that stupid lets play.

I would say the rot goes further back.

Basically it was women with alot of freetime. Like Ozma, ice queen etc.

They put in other women and kinda had the cat lady "oh my we cant say mean things etc"

I was there when D&D started to radicalize itself back in 2009 era. They had a fucking "reading list" that help phrase america as racist etc. If you ve read the SAD thread on the Ukraine war you get honest american goons telling sweden goons that because all the Europeans are "White" so whats the issue.

Fuck one goon even posted some to the effect that of course the forum is liberal and conservatives are a minority because liberals are right. Never mind that anyone to the right of MAO will get run off for having the wrong opinions

Then ZDR took over and cucked lowtax he after radicalizing soo much in D&D he fucked off to discord and it was just FUA running the place you started the ban +30 and perma bans, and closing QCS threads and being a faggot who didnt want anyone mad at him.

Before jeff bought the place a goon made a very telling post that SA was terminal and just need hospice care which is true

I think the last meme SA pulled of was EAT THE EGGS and lowtax kiling himself.

I just wish I could get a bead on jeff he bought the fucking place and seems to listen to someone about it

Love seeing overwrought explanations of KF ratings from gay niggers like ciri. Surprised you could type those soy-filled paragraphs through the tears and clutched-pearls you dumb homo. Looking forward to seeing the obituary in your local paper after Jeff goes on tilt after a bad batch of dark web coke and bans your troon loving ass.
