Can we get a section for the Opie and Anthony community refugees? - A community so dedicated to aspergery, we got Reddit to change its ToS

As much as I love laughing at the Count, his brother Dopie and the rest of the cast of total degenerates I don't think they'd be a good fit for the Farms. A lot of the big happenings in recent years came from people fucking with the Cumias rather than letting those two boneheads wither away into obscurity where they belong.

This isn't to say I don't find it funny when they get fucked with by the same boomers and truckers they used to use to attack others however it goes against the mantra of "no cowtipping".

I'm seeing a lot of people wanting a thread/sub but not wanting to make a single OP to prove their points. Really gives weight to everyone saying you just want a refugee camp that's reddit2.0.

Lots of effort ITT to get someone else to do something you could do yourselves.

Yeah isn't that what the whole proving grounds thing is for? If there's enough content generated to justify one then by all means they can have a subforum IMO but until they can prove it's worth it, no dice.

You aren't wrong, but the counterpoint would be that good OPs take time. They just put this request up today, no need for them to try and rush to shit out ~7 different OPs on various O&A adjacent people.

If we're expecting them to properly intergrate, it's going to be a minimum of a few days before they can look out our formatting and learn a bit about our culture.

I would have to agree with Null, the people these refugees talk about already have threads. What would be the point of opening up space for them when they'll shit up anywhere they go? Are people from Reddit usually this way?

Appreciate your open-mindedness. I'll be posting a Patrick Tomlinson thread within a couple of days. Opie offers nothing; Anthony's thread could be spruced up, but is very low output these days; Joe Cumia has been fairly quiet; Jim Norton and Sam Roberts, who host the de facto O&A successor show, are just lazy and self-indulgent.

The subforum idea is not well liked at all by most the O&A crowd. Also, there has been a very recent problem with hosting, so a subforum is just not a good idea right now for several reasons, in my opinion.

Even just a skeleton in the Proving Grounds would be more effort but it just sounds like they would rather latch on than make their own thing.

I know Kiwi Farms is autistic by default but these people were apparently too spergy for Reddit. That's something I didn't even realize was possible.

Just go make a thread on Opie. He is more of a lolcow than Anthony anyways, actively puts out a ton of content to rip on. If yall want a home here dont ask for a bunch of shit. Connect with your buddies, make some threads, if you really do pull in even a few hundred people from OnA it will be noticeable and with enough activity, congrats, you get your own board. Dont beg like a fag. Or donate Null a bitcoin, he will probably sell out for that.

However, that sub and Kiwi Farms are VERY different culturally. They actively fucked with people associated with the show and constantly wished for bad things to happen to them.

I think people are forgetting that the IRL stuff only really gained traction from the general sub once people like Anthony threatened to get the sub taken down. There were a few psychos who would fuck with these people, but shit got crazy only after a bounty was put out to get the sub shut down and once Joe Cumia started falsely DMCA'ing posts.

Why can't those niggers just make a discord to jerk off about how much they hate the Cumias and plan their gayops in?

Why can't they make something on their own? Why do they need to come here? That is a question I would like answered.

There was a discord and the gayest of ops were conducted, which is why a bunch of people hated it. And we tried to make a few new boards but they kept getting false DMCA's so the host said fuck it and booted us.

How about a radio lolcow forum? If not then I see no point in having an o&a sub-forum if we can’t include Ghost and others.

Internet Famous already pretty much is this, boomer radio lolcows are too obscure and specific to warrant their own space.
