Facepunch/Knockout Forums - A "welcoming" gaming and lifestyle community

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
That was one of the tipping points that made me realize just how far gone the site was. I still don't understand why "ableism" became a thing.
it's because they have a massive autistic userbase and were outspoken that it hurt their feelings. This is funny to me because that means they see the word "re:tard" and imagine themselves as who it's referring to.

I don't even have any hatred towards them personally, They just deal with other opinions in the dumbest way possible, and handle criticism by labelling it some sort of phobic. They can't hear "biological sex is real" without claiming transphobia. It's not a healthy way of talking to anyone, and I imagine they feel like everyone is out to get them constantly. That must be exhausting.

These dudes radiate male aggression, hence the incel similarities. They're broken down, and I honestly just feel bad for most of them.

Except for that one user whose username is that genre of hentai with gored women. He can rot.

Why is that decoding their posts is harder than parsing actual code?

I'll bet drag queens bother them because there's no material difference in what they're doing.

Except drag queens know it's not real and have fun with it as a costume instead of say, claiming they're women to get into women's spaces.

As an old fp user, it's weird to see that nearly all of the legacy users have trooned out. They all went from being incels to incelitas

As much as those types of people will talk about "owning the CHUDs" and "incel rhetoric" the incel to tranny pipeline is a genuine phenomenon. People here frequently joke about men who can't get laid eventually choosing between MGTOW or "becoming the girlfriend" and you can see tons of examples of that being the case during a lolcow's lifetime. Peets (Chantal's ex-cuck) is on the verge of doing it right now.

Fuck them, even if you're the most delicate and apologetic poster around they'll find ways to demonize and make you feel like an outcast before begging a janny to ban you for some made up shit. They will wait for you to slip up (or even provoke you into doing so) and then the unpaid janny will will strike you as they declare victory over bigotry.

When I was a user I mainly talked about foreign affairs because that was my expertise (I studied it), and the regular troon clique who participated in the discussion were spouting so much made up shit it was astonishing. I used to give them detailed explanations, sources and all kinds of evidence only to be dumbed down and zinged by some white American tranny from a middle/high class suburb. In the end they got tired of it and decided to ban me for ""bad faith arguing"" once and from there I was basically marked to be banned again each time I ever talked about foreign affairs on the forums. In the end they baited me into talking about it again because as soon as I wrote the first sentence I was already permabanned from their discord + forums, they told a janny that they're gonna bait me and it worked.

This is how they bend the rules for themselves - people used to get banned for "caring about ratings" a ton, that is until they finally did it themselves and decided to change the rules in their own favor.

yes, they permabanned him for literally opposing HRT blockers for underaged kids

they made a good point about them forcing themselves too much onto society and still got permabanned


Autists or not, they're a group of white men who cut their dicks off for that sweet, sweet minority privilege. They're the same type of people who advocate to burn the whole city and riot in protest but then go hide behind a group of minorities when they provoke the law.

Also, the large amount of ex-FP/KO users here is pretty much hard evidence on why they end up pissing off so many people.

Bonus post of a troon doing the infamous "hmmmm how can I make this about myself being a victim" trick

I'm also a former Facepunch user.
I was considering signing up for Knockout at the start, but after realizing it was only the dumb fuck commiefaggots and troons that made the move to Knockout i decided on just moving on instead.
One of the funniest things on Facepunch was seeing that loser janny Big Dumb American/Patriot go insane after Trump won the election :story:
And it's nice seeing that Kyle902 continues to be a mentally ill tranny to this day.

Any good highlights of this get saved? The thread here only started in 2020 so we barely got any election meltdown content from them.

they're not even marxists, they're the most annoying type of liberal. I saw an argument where someone said "you shouldn't buy sex from prostitutes as it creates demand, thus increasing the number of women being sex trafficked" and they got dogpiled by users saying shit like "uhm how are they gonna get money if you don't buy sex from them" and "sex work is real work".

absolutely mental, incel behaviour.

and yeah please post the BDA meltdown, I remember him going full bonkers over it.

I actually don't give a shit about troons being troons they can do whatever they want to themselves as long as they aren't harming other people imo, but the "activist" fetish for permanently and irreversibly harming children through puberty blockers/HRT/genitial mutilation as "gender affirming" is disgusting and the fact that "normies" among the troons (and their allies) don't call it out and condemn it says a lot I think. It's like the saying these folks love about how there's no good cops if they aren't arresting the bad cops.

Compare it to the troons we do have on KF, at least half of them will call out these freaks and mock their insanity with the rest of us. But lots of places like Knockout and ResetERA are captured by the troon extremists who act like a cult and the cis faggots who worship and protect them. I have no idea if the online perception is reality but it certainly feels like 80+% of online troons are extremists.
 
I actually wonder how long until they get up in arms about this thread again, it always seems they bring it up on their own accord after this thread gets enough traffic.

Another refugee here. Was a member of Facepunch from the mid-late 2000s. Knockout was always going to be a shell of FP but it's gotten so bad now that I barely post there any more. The site has become a total hive-mind run by a clique of trans and radical left types (usually both) who only ever make threads and post about the same shit over and over, patting each-other on the back and silencing anyone who steps out of line even a tiny bit. The final straw for me was when certain users, and even a mod, started openly admitting to trawling through someone's post history and their "rating patterns" for the purpose of discrediting anything they say. Now they're even talking about making the site invite-only. Yeah, you can miss me with that gay shit.

Trans people run the site now. If the mods aren't trans themselves then they bend over and take their girl-dicks for fear of being dogpiled and cancelled. I wouldn't give a shit if it wasn't impacting every thread, even ones that have nothing to do with it. I feel like I'm a tourist on a trans forum. Sucks man, FP was legit.

Their ""allies"" are one of the worse cucks I've seen yet. Not only they submit to the old troon clique and agree with everything they say but they completely take any flak towards the "cisgender community" and accept it no matter how absurd and psychotic it is.

Good example would be that Hungarian/Bulgarian ex-janny Breadman - guy kept close tabs on any user who had a debate with the love his life: schizo troon #1385 Amber. It only takes one complaint from that hairy American abomination and Breadman sweeps in, strikes the transphobe with a "bad faith argument" ban and proceeds to declare victory as he earned some good boy points towards getting that trans pussy.
This is what lack of pussy does to a nigga: man must be thirsty as fuck when he simps for another fat hairy man in a dress on the other side of the globe.

EDIT: don't know which turbo-autist is doing this but godspeed you magnificent bastard you managed to derail another thread

>over literally a handful of people with major insecurities

I'm fucking speechless. :stress:


Also great job jannies, making that forum invite-only, wow. That's going to be another nail into Knockout's coffin.

First you get the rid of the OG members, then you get the rid of almost every content creator, then you make it that every new account is gimped until a post cap, then you start throwing tantrums and banning people for using "bad words/bad faith argument" and lastly you put up an invite-only registration?

Jeez, then they wonder why their forum userbase is dwindling. Oh well, it's their loss.
 
Hmmm... I wonder why so many ex FP/KO users gather here? could it be because of the retarded moderation? the schizo troons limiting everyone's free speech? the nepotism? the degeneracy and virtue signaling? the groupthink? I really wonder.

:thinking:
I know you're reading this, Jim. Learn how to count, faggot.

Has anybody taken a look at their rules page and moderator code of conduct yet?

1635720589380.png
This is just about the most vague bullshit you could write.
They even admit there's no actual criteria or line to cross, it's literally a gotcha for any dissenting opinion.

1635720709489.png
Notice the wording. Apparently it's a defined rule to report wrongthink now.

1635721779885.png
Every day you can find people advocating for violence in the politics section. Of course that's the right violence to advocate for so it doesn't matter, right?

The janny code of conduct does not get much better. Inacio gives a janny peptalk in The Vision:
1635721130578.png
I don't think there's a single thing here that's followed.

There's a whole section on Honesty and Integrity, too.
1635721253280.png
>Sincere and Truthful
As if :sighduck:
Notice there's a clause against bribing or gifting moderators anything. There's no way in hell that's being followed.
 
Who do they think everyone is so ready and excited to dox them on the internet? Hey idiot I have barely enough time to browse online after work and finish chores.

Do they really think I'm gonna spend extra time in my day to go throw eggs at a randos house because they're stupid on the internet? This fear of theirs is so ridiculous.
 
"Bad faith arguments" literally does just mean you disagreed with people. That's all it is. There have been cases where even if you provide literal sources for your points, and I mean actual data driven studies from journals, doesn't matter, the moderator can just decide they don't like your sources and ban you. It's bollocks and just a carte blanche rule to ban whoever they don't like.
