So they formed a union but nobody thought about tying to actually get paid?

In Space Quest IV, Roger must dress up as a “blond woman” to access an ATM machine in Galexy Galleria shopping mall. The author of a 1993 review commented on this: “at one point Roger has to cross-dress to fool a computer” (Ardai, 1993, p. 34). Another author suggests that “SQIV must be the first game to include the main character dressing in drag in order to solve a puzzle (Sorry Cloud from Final Fantasy VII, but Roger got there first)” (Spaul, 1999). This scene is available in this video starting around 13:00 (set up) and about 27:00 (for actual drag scene; *content warning* there is some transphobic dialog at the end of the scene). The image above shows Roger in the dress and wig required for this puzzle.

*Content Warning* Transphobic dialog:

The robot clerk who sells Roger the required dress and wig gives him a hard time about the size of the “friend” he is buying the outfit for, and when he says “she’s built about like me” the robot says “a likely story. Good thing I can keep a secret sweetie.” After she gives him the dress, she says “If that ‘special someone’ needs a wig, this one should look pretty good on you.” Once he is dressed, she says “Very lovely honey, it was made for you.” When Roger opts to wear the outfit and wig home she says “that will be 60 buckazoids, sicko.”

I only played Space Quest 1 neglecting the prophetic Sq4. Sad. And what a bitchy robot.

So....this Seb guy who seems to be organizing a lot of this. I've encountered this username before out in the internet wilds. Years and years ago, back at an old Web 1.0 game called Utopia and it's Politics subforum. That Seb was an insufferable liberal then too. And British.

Quick glance at their legacy discussion forum www.utopiaforums.com and looks like he still posts there too. I wonder if they are same person? If they are that is a good two decades worth of content to go through and build a profile on the guy.

This guy needs to get a grip and have an actual job, as well as n8thegr8. Imagine moding 100+ subs whereas you could be doing something beneficial to the society

STO the Star Trek Online subreddit has already REEE'd and gone back online after users started getting mad about the blackout.

What an excellent win for the good guys.

The idea of flooding a forum with child porn is an interesting one.
In order to post cp, don't you have to have cp?
Isn't having cp considered to be a bad thing?
Isn't distributing cp considered to be a bad thing?
Perhaps I need more coffee for this.

Having a paying "job" might affect their monthly tugboats

Lol you just reminded me of when Dan Olsen tried to own gamergate by posting CP and getting booted from Channel Awesome. You'd think the same would happen to AHS. Just take a moment to let it wash over you that Mike and the Walker bros are more based than Reddit.

Remember in the mid-2000s when Reddit was Libertarian-leaning and had a hard-on for Ron Paul... WTF happened? I refuse to believe it was just Tumblr.

When you consider having subreddits that you don't like existing on the platform is worse than owning cp, you deserve to be hanged or shot. I'm starting to think that AHS is just full of pedos

You know what username/s he posts under?
e: nvm I found it. He was posting in a random thread blaming Trump for the chaos in Afghanistan.

most likely lolicon. Otherwise the people doing it would be felons and Reddits not gonna humor that.

I seem to remember him mentioning he was involved in banking, but this was years ago. It could be he's a trader or some shit and he has all his discussion forums on one monitor and his job on the other. Financial services Jobs are very results oriented. So long as you bring in the dosh Managers don't give a shit what you are doing while you are doing it.

Just Seb. It's why I remembered it. It's simple but uncommon enough that they are probably the same person.

That utopia forum bumps threads off the front page but it does not delete. The entire database should be searchable via Google or whatever service you use. And it's been online for decades.

I recall someone close to SRS doing a similar technique, shit what was its name (yes, its so far beyond gender norms its appropriate to call it an 'it').

I'm pretty sure lolicon can be a felony as well.

 

[spacekatguy]

gawd at this point I can't penetrate the ridiculous layers of irony that exist on reddit. I kind of get why r/drama is fucked beyond recognition, but is rdrama.net meant to be the main place everyone migrated to? Is the trans ideology in both places genuinely sincere or just taking the piss? Poe's law is a pretzel, I don't even wanna touch those places anymore. At least rdrama.net seems to be posting the real shit some of the time.

I don't think I can keep up with the energy those places have anymore.

 

[Fields Of Rye]

Not in the US IIRC. Canada it is for sure cause truckers keep getting caught with it coming from the US.

From the many misadventures of Shadman I know that in the US, so long as it's not portraying someone who actually exists, like a child actor, or a character a child model resembles, it's not classified as genuine CP.

then again I don't fuck kids moderate reddit so what do I know?

It was something like r/versamax or along that line. Named after retired General Electric PLC product.

You had to know exactly what to look for to find it but it was a wealth of knowledge.

At most it has maybe a hundred users.

It would have been fun to see the subreddit and see the ban reason for it.

>getting
You should have already stopped looking at it after they banned r/MillionDollarExtreme.
