LividLiquid is part of a marginalised group. They felt that even though the Acclaimed are also parts of marginalised groups that they were still fomenting the same kind of reaction towards marginalised groups that Donald Trump was facilitating. The collective absolutely dogpiled LL for making the comparison and it ended with a quote that has stuck around in the first post of the AEW thread for over a year now. LL just popped into an AEW thread a while back to politely ask if it could be removed because they felt personally attacked every time they saw it. No matter what you believe about how it was said or whether it was valid or whatever, why the gently caress couldn't anybody just say "oh yeah we've got a shitload of stuff in that post already, it really doesn't matter to us if it helps you feel more like a member of our community" and get rid of it? It's a rhetorical question by the way, I already know the answer and it's why I've basically done an overly prolonged banme request.

This is what Lividliquid actually said for reference:

LividLiquid posted:

I get up to check on dinner when The Acclaimed are on. I just can't begin to enjoy their work and they come across as the kids whose parents don't pay enough attention so they scream curse words until everybody's looking at them.

So, pretty much Trump. Which you'd think would make me want to see them get beat, but I just can't begin to care beyond wanting the edgelord teenagers who don't know poo poo to stop reminding me of being an edgelord teenager who didn't know poo poo.

which was rightfully mocked

If LL had specifically mentioned the bad Acclaimed rap about rape rather than "kids whose parent's don't pay enough attention" as being "pretty much Trump" this insane take would have been taken more respectfully

You mean the one that doesn't directly reference LividLiquid in any way shape or form? There's no right to feel like you belong to a community (and the something awful forum isn't a real community, it's a group of strangers having a conversation at best) especially if you said something dumb and got mocked for it.

I didn't even remember what LividLiquid had posted 2 years ago now until you brought it up. The answer is always :justpost: normal poo poo about wrestling and everyone kind of forgets.

Being so insecure that even being tangentially reminded of it causes emotional pain is not the responsibility of the forum.

Derisively talking about the posting police while finger wagging at everybody else about their posting 30 seconds before you're booted off the island because you self-exiled after everybody got sick of your uniformly terribly posting is ALMOST as good as having a meltdown for being tangentially related to a joke about Trump after comparing a black gay wrestler to Trump. But not quite.

Hey, I have terrible opinions but I am NOT a terrible poster thank you very much.

I said that Roman Reigns was a draw compared to MJF who is not in the WWE thread and you called me "numb nuts". One is an opinion, which may or may not be good or bad. The other is bad loving posting, which is what you and your crew of flunkies who follow my terrible opinions from thread to thread engage in like I'm the pied piper of assholes or something.

irrelevant but i remember gamefaqs was a great place for people who had an ideological reverence for accrued posting credibility through repeated opinions as well providing service and maintaining a high level of presentation in your words, instead of anyone caring if you're a poo poo head or cool. almost everyone was like that but those are memories from 20 years ago so i don't know if it's different or dead now. some cults can also be good for this. well i got no problem. my rat poo poo is bigger

And all you others who respond to my actual opinions with Elon Musk quality memes and personal insults and low-content shitposts then get on your high horses about how people should and shouldn't behave on the forums and are then in pure disbelief that I am just going to leave this toxic place after 22 years and not epic re-reg, cheerio and best wishes! I am glad that you can find so much enjoyment out of AEW when it's turned into such a bitter disappointment for me. I'll take my negativity elsewhere and I really should have realised it was the wrong audience here, so I'm sorry for that.

Just one final word - I think the way you all treated LividLiquid was incredibly lovely. They just asked for one little line in that giant wall of text and images to be removed because they felt personally offended by it and they got shouted down and told that their feelings were irrelevant. It would have taken so little effort just to recognise that one person but NO, the collective has spoken.

Man, this was a great thread.

Lid posted:

“The match that I had with Punk, where things go wonky at the end of that match with the kick out on the GTS, which isn’t even his move.

“That’s me giving into my desire to be a little bit petty in that regard. It’s KENTA’s move and you didn’t even have the decency to change the name.”

“Regardless, the confusion at the end of our match was the fact that he did what’s called ‘the office’ or an ‘iggy.’ This is some inside baseball stuff here. He did that before the three count was over.

“Having been in the business for a long time, I recognize what that is and have done it myself to somebody to say, in our way, ‘whatever, good match.’ He did it before the three count was over. That’s also a way to alert your opponent that, ‘Hey, let’s change something.’”

“In that moment, I can liken it to what Tony Khan might have been feeling when he’s going off on the EVPs. You don’t know what to do. In that moment, I know for myself, I had to make a split-second decision, couldn’t weigh out this or that.

“I had to kick out or not kick out and lose the moment forever. I kicked out. Being whatever it was.”

I feel really bad about piling onto people who are going through some kind of bad emotional response to the internet but I'll never understand why when called a bad poster some people decide to double or triple down on it and start picking fights with the entire forum. at some point you've either got to decide the place you're on is toxic and you should just leave quietly or realize you're the one that's a problem

sometimes it can be both i guess

This place is one of the least lovely places left to talk about punchsports on the internet, and a big part of that is an openly stated intolerance for the kind of toxicity that permeates most of said other places, and I think a lot of people who wind up at odds with the body public of the forum--sometimes for reasons that are good, sometimes for reasons that are bad, sometimes for mixtures of both that are just deeply weird--feel a certain sense of betrayal about that. 'If we care so much about not being lovely to people why are you being lovely to me' becomes another source of anger that reinforces the original anger rather than making you question if your mockery was warranted and if your reaction is fueling more of it.

I am not in the AEW threads enough to know the background, I mostly just see the drama when it spills over and I hope everyone is not being a dick. Except That DICK!, who is legally exempt.

Personally, I liked how Egger claimed that they're glad to leave this toxic dump of a subforum, while simultaneously trying to get "Internet good guy" points by claiming to be aggrieved on LL's behalf

He shook his head to clear it, thought of taking another sip of water, and dismissed the idea. Tonight. When he was in catering over the remains of the shattered table. Then he would drink. As for now . . .

Personally I just don't post or read most of the active threads in PSP because i don't think they're enjoyable to read or participate in, but I'm not accusing any dark cabals of conspiring to make them like that or posting banme manifestos against my perceived forum enemies. I just stopped reading them.

Slower threads about wrestling history or the shambling corpse of the NWA are still fun though.
