Grift Wars CENTCOM - Meta discussion for the Grift Wars board.

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
In 2013, in an attempt to control violence among deep-net autists, the New Net Government legalized no-tards-barred fighting. CWCKI Lolcow Coroporation, working with the NNG, established a series of boards and bloody public exhibitions. The fight's popularity grew with their brutality. Soon, CWCKI Forums discovered that the public matches were their most profitable enterprise. The professional league was formed: a cabal of the most autistic and mushmouthed grifters in known cyberspace, selected to fight in a Grand Tournament. Now it is 2023. Ten years have passed since the founding of eDrama. Profits from the tournament number in the hundreds of billions. You have been selected to fight in the professional league by the Grift Wars rules board. Your greed and stupidity are legendary. The time has come to prove, you are the best. To crush your enemies. To win, The Internet.

I like this board idea. I wrote a post in the Comicsgate thread about what I think should be done with that board and some related ones.

I'm hoping @Null reads this or some of the other staff/mods.

This is the time for a new OP. It was very recently discussed in the thread, past few pages in the midst of the Eric July/Dick/Vito/Nick thing that has stirred things up. @Mister Dongs and @Mecha II posts lay the groundwork for a chronological history up to this date OP that we need. I think @Mister Dongs should write the OP @Mecha II and @Ike Aim have a lot to contribute to that also. There were other good posters here like @Smug Freiza but a lot of them went MIA as frankly this "movement" has been winding down as a relevant force.

Also there are a number of side threads that could be iced in spergatory or moved, but fit in the historical lore of Comicsgate.
comicsgate-hangers-on-and-drama-whores splinter thread with sperging by thread banned people and a series of dox posts
Umbrella Guy
Vikkiverse / DA Talks
Yellow Flash
Raging Golden Eagle
Liam Gray
George Alexopoulos
Sheila Aliens
Vox Day

Anyhow this is the perfect opportunity to have a much needed new OP, the outdated 2018 OP should be archived, but leads to confusion that this is still largely about fighting woke Marvel DC people and not the trash fire of infighting and backstabbing that it is. It needs a good "this is what it is/these are the important events/these are the major players" OP similar to the IP2 community OP.

Here are the recent posts I mentioned that give a big head start to organizing a new OP:

I think Jim fits better as a lolcow proper. He does exactly what he is going to do and puts it on the internet.
If nothing else, it is abundantly clear that he won't do anything different in order to get more money or attention.

I think this would be a good time and place to move The Fandom Menace Thread out of PG, it could be a pretty good general thread (like Tranny Sideshows) to then spin off threads for anyone in the sphere who miraculously achieves some level of originality.

Yeah I agree, him and Sam both exist as entities outside of their political grifting, which is why I put them as 'maybe's.

The OP of that thread sucks, which is why it never made it out. Also "Fandom Menace" has now run its course splintered and was replaced by or reverted to The Friday Night Tights crew, Geeks and Gamers, Simp Cast, Rippaverse etc. Someone would have to write a great OP and convince people here they are lolcows which didn't work recently for an Eric July thread but has worked in the past for Clownfish TV, Razorfist, Mauler (who should all be here)

I'd put Kanye's thread back in lolcows as a schizocow. Drop Milo and Loomer back in there too I guess, I don't recall any ebegging from him and Loomer recently.
Venti and Shoe can stay in BP because thirstposters suck even more.

I think there needs to be some kind of baseline to follow.
- Lives exclusively off Internet clout, no job outside of making Internet rubbish
- Plugs Patreon etc, ebegs, takes numerous sponsorships

This means:
Destiny/Fuentes/Boogie2988 etc: belongs here
"Urbanists" probably not, most of them have actual jobs.

Otherwise it might become another IF.

Maybe the cozy.tv thread can become a megathread for minor grifters on there like Brittany etc.
We might need to get some new thread prefixes, we've got everything from far left/right grifters to cringe anime trash, children's comic books and other weirdos.
