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

I kinda wonder that about SA as a whole honestly, considering a lot of the weirder shit you see out on the greater internet now started there. The troon epidemic pretty much started there and I've never seen so many people that crazy about Hillary being good and pure in my life.
doesn't troon mean trans goon? It doesn't make any sense outside of SA aside from sounding funny
 
Guys give me money for merch!

Okay you aren't getting the merch you paid for but give me money for a forums move!

Okay you aren't getting the forums move you paid for but give me money to cover costs!

Okay the forum covers it's own costs anyway but give me money for medical bills!

Okay I never paid my medical bills but give me money to cover costs!

Okay the forum still covers it's own costs anyway but give me money for medical bills It's serious this time! Oh God Surgery!

Okay I never paid my medical bills but give me money because my mother is literally dying as we speak!

If these people actually cared about Something Awful they wouldn't donate anything in the hopes that Lowtax will be forced to sell it to someone that isn't a completely useless parasite that refuses to get a job. As long as Lowtax is in charge the money goes to preserving his lifestyle and not preserving the forums.
 
A doubting Thomas appears.

Some idiot thinks spamming SA links on reddit is going to bring in new members.

Maybe this is all some grand op so that Lowtax can say IF YOU DON'T WANT FUCKING FEATURES THEN STOP ASKING ME TO SPEND THE MONEY YOU GAVE ME FOR XENFORO TO BUY XENFORO!!

Eh, who am I kidding, Lowtax's already low IQ has been wrecked by the booze and pills for too much for him to think that deeply.

This is actually pretty likely.

Lowtax : "Hi guys I just added some new features for you I hope you like them!"

Posters : "If bandwidth costs are your biggest gripe why would you make the forums automatically refresh twice a minute. That's potentially hundreds of millions of unnecessary page loads over a month period. Also I don't think anyone ever asked for the ability to turn our posts into tweets with the Digg Button 2.0 or have a sixth option to scroll up the page which doesn't even work."

Lowtax : "FINE I GIVE UP. FUCK YOU. NOTHING MAKES YOU FUCKS HAPPY."
 
Lol funniest shit ever. I imagined NOTAX stumbling around...fucked up on Tylenol-3 and night train express.. finding an html coding book from the late 90,s in a box somewhere in his house doing all of this thinking it was a good idea....another fail.


Mangosteen meltdown incoming

"Fine then...dont click my buttons...dont fucking USE IT. Whats the fucking problem? "
 
The funny thing is that jump to the beginning feature has been in there since a while and came with a slew of different features I think ZDR implemented, when he still cared about anything besides his ego regarding SA. He literally just didn't know and implemented one himself because he never looks at the forums and has no idea what's going on with them. He's like that deadbeat dad that shows up every few months and asks his 7th grade kid how elementary school is going.
 
An example that's often given is Lowtax mocking some online-support thing/personal webpage stuff (so early 00s) of women who lost their children, either in labor or shortly after birth. I think he coined the phrase "Your poison womb is making heaven too fucking crowded", directed at a woman who had a bunch of still births. Also goons started making joke gifs about 9/11 before it all was over, that shit that was made in that thread is still all over the internet. An insane contrast to the super serious and mod-enforced "please let it be a cis white guy" and "actually, islam is the religion of peace!1!!" shit you see when some rando somewhere gets stabbed by somebody who shouted allah akbar. Early SA didn't take anything really all that serious and that's what made it so fun to talk about everything and anything. You don't really have that in most parts of the internet anymore these days. It really became serious business.

Sounds like a case of ironic just deserts.

Lowtax just current-year'd someone for saying "faggot" and banned them:

Lowtax is and always was an enormous faggot. The only reason why anybody thought otherwise was because he used to be politically incorrect, just like Maddox, Habermann, ect.

That was when ZDR threatened to quit publicly, said he had one foot out the door already and Lowtax immediately backed down. It's documented in this thread somewhere. I seem to remember someone saying that ZDR had plans to take SA mainstream somehow and that's why he was thought policing the site so hard. He was pissed all of his work to turn SA into whatever family friendly game review/let's play website or whatever was being destroyed by Lowtax allowing bad words so he cucked Lowtax into submission.

Because Lowtax is too much of a fucking idiot to just learn CSS and manage it himself.
