All I remember was that he or she was really, really mad about new GBS and generally hated anything fun. I think they still post once in a while.

Apparently under a different name, and still reporting people frantically enough that mods hate it.

I have to admit, I WAS taking notes just in case I wanted to get that free name change.... but looking at its rap sheet, it looks like there are also a large number of bans involved too, so not very free.

I just have trouble understanding why someone would report poo poo on the Something Awful forums. I've disagreed with plenty of people in my time here, but have never once even considered hitting that button. Adults who tattle about others on internet forums are a very special kind of pathetic.

It has one very valid use... I'll report inline NSFW because I(and others) browse from work, and having a goatse load can cost someone their job, even if they never see it because it was spoilered.

See, that makes sense, but it's worlds away from MEATY MARTHA and friends reporting anything that rubbed them the wrong way. I always have to wonder how people like that fare irl. I bet they're "that guy/girl" in every conceivable situation.

Someone on my FB named their daughter Stormageddon. I googled it and it's a doctor who thing. Someone post that comic with the parents slamming their baby's face with a nintendo controller yelling "Be me!!"

Hahaha that's awesome I just got a kitten and named him stormageddon(ruler of all). But we call him stormy.

For the record my girlfriend and I both enjoy doctor who, but not enough to bother telling most people the cats full name and explaining the joke. Also it's a cat, holy poo poo why would you name a human that.

Personally, I report people who have huge lovely meltdowns and make a thread be all about themselves and their inability to cope with criticism. Yes, it takes five to tango, but if that ONE person shuts up for six hours, maybe poo poo will lighten up and we can get back to PYF Dickbutt or whatever.

So that the mods can create report shaming threads and mock the people who report stupid poo poo. We need more of those threads mods. Literally a bird make it so.

Because your username isn't the URL, and if you have ever had to explain to someone over the phone what a URL actually IS, then you should hate anyone who causes doubt as to its clearly defined format.

Your username is NOT the URL, it is PART of the URL. If you had to login with imafukkinretard.tumblr.com, and if that full this showed up on those posts, it would be accurate to say, but that is not how it works, and the URL did not appear anywhere in that picture.

In the url "http://forums.somethingawful.com/", "forums" is called the "subdomain". Now that you know the correct term, let the tumblrites be tumblrites, as if there weren't already a million other reasons to laugh at them.

Because, anything dumb someone that uses Tumblr does is infinitely worse than anytime someone else is stupid on the internet, for some reason.
