Okay, I can fully accept the "Lost Fun Factor" part on your wall of text, Null.
I, for my time been here on the Farms, have spent over 90% on the Animal Control Board and the rest is calling other members: fags or just shitposting, and in an everyday fashion saw the sense and structure disappear over time. It's not completely gone, just because some of the old guard and/or self-aware members of the board that still remains today that is keeping control of threads but the majority seems loose enough to have taking everything a bit too serious and start complaining about god-knows-what or simply repeating something that has been on the thread itself or politics all-in-all instead of taking the absolute piss out of it.
I've been mostly on lurk mode because of this and not every tiny thing that lowcows and furfags are doing should be documented or I just don't have much to say in regards to a situation on a thread but well, it has happened anyway. And shit like that has gotten stupid, real quick. Don't really want to sound like of these Oldtimer Boomerfags but, I wished things can be like the time when lurked before I joined in 2016...it still can be tbh, if people start waking up a bit.
But even with all that dumb shit going on, this forum has given me the chance to meet different mindsets and give me the opportunity to be who I am without getting drowned by randos crying their eyes because of some small remark.
This platform is one of the best that exist and you made it possible, Null. It's quite hard for me to find a place that give's out the same satisfaction.
I can understand the problem that pushes you out of this forum and how much it eclipsed on your personal life. It's tough to digest a pill like that with the constant negative bombardment from other websites and faggots that tries to shut you down.
But for real, its reads like you've hit a mid-life crisis or some sort one, you really need to get out of the farms and doing something that benefits only you alone, dude.
Or just let the Mods handle everything in here while you try containing revenue for the bills to pay for the Farms and do your things in life. you know? Like a boss?
You said it yourself that the Mods are quite good with their job, so why not give them a try? But hey, if you think it's way too much to handle, then do what you need to do, man.
You are in control in life and no one can take it away from you.
That's enough of my faggy post! When the Kiwifarms gets sacrificed for the harvest, don't do it like Vivisector or Something Awful, Null.
