Wasn't there one guy in a recent mock thread who derailed the whole thing to drone on about his quicksand fetish?

I remember that one of the old Minecraft threads had a crazy fairy-torture-fetish guy in it.

There was also the super creepy dude who used to post in Games and desperately attempt to incorporate his fetish for giant anime girls into everything like it was totally no big deal and not a creepy fetish of his at all. It was a lot of "Just posting this here update about the game I am making, it's a really cool concept about giant anime loli catgirls the size of godzilla wrestling." *insert awful screenshots of glass eyed terrorbeasts made in poser* He alternated between feebly trying to defend it as some sort of "funny joke that doesn't give me boners" and ignoring pretty much every post people made and pretending that people really wanted updates about his awful project.

Now that I think about it, though, I haven't seen him in a while. Probably mellowed out?

There was also that one time where the guy who created a FF6 hack that was played through bought up out of nowhere that he masturbates to MLP. So yeah, Goons are hardly paragons of virtue.

Well on SA, problem posters re-reg a million times before the mods get tired of them and permaban. As opposed to TvT, where people get banned, then come back under obvious sockpuppets, and everyone pretends it isn't them for some reason. Moderation is generally better overall though.

Wasn't he such a tremendous attention whore that the old PYF Mock thread and previous TVT thread banned discussion of him because he was like a hosed up puppy—he loves it when you kick him, because at least he's getting attention?

He also used to post at length about how this girl who sat next to him in math class was a reincarnation of a girl from his previous life in some kind of weird pseudo-egyptian fantasy world where she was his willing sex slave

Draven was either a seriously bored kid, extremely mentally ill, or both of the above.

He believed that he fought for the Chinese monarchy in the Second Sino-Japanese War, yeah. Somehow he wasn't aware of the Chinese monarch being a Japanese puppet at the time.

They said their being a pedophile was a learned behavior, and they think the kobold and slave fantasies were parts of their mental illness. On the other hand, now they say they are a god and have separate past lives as fictional characters. So...improvement? If nothing else they aren't involved with the toxic pit that is the TV Tropes community, so they can't get much worse.

This story gets weirder every time I hear it. It was a bad set of threads, no lie, but like the cannibalism guy was like an obvious troll, as always comes up at end of life for bad threads like that. And that response was like, people obviously loving with him back. It still had the same few jackasses basically advocating rape every ten pages or so and a few nazi uniform fetishists, so good riddance, but still.

The worst thing about the fetish thread was that so many, like, 14 and 15 year olds were posting about sex stuff and interacting with actual adults.

The Bee posted:Suddenly I understand CM Punk's gimmick way more. Thanks TvTropes thread! Punk's gimmick (and life) stems far more from the fact that from what snippets I've heard, his upbringing was absolutely horrific with him starving and scratching on with very little while his parents spent all their money to feed their addictions, and even now his family is a bunch of junkies and users who would gladly latch onto him and suck him dry if they could. To him, being straight edge is basically renouncing every single pile of poo poo he had to struggle to escape growing up.
