I signed up I wanna say 1 year before 2001? I dunno now actually I remember 9/11 2001. My account was old enough that when I got banned I couldn't rereg because my original email was from college and I didn't have access to itD&D actually had a lot more conservative posters and wasn't like super duper liberal, but then that was also when there were a lot of posters.

It'd be interesting to actually go back and reread the D&D and see how it's changed and shifted.

It's a noticable enough for me that I remember it being a obvious shift.

the forums run on the same principle of antiquity history, where the ages decline and the great heroes all die leaving only their inferior prodigy to slog along unblinkingly in the new gotterdammerung. the figures that persist are simply those who lack the fame or infamy to die.

sa seems like its got a five to seven year turnover cycle for its era which is pretty good, compared to the other forums ive been to where its like two years per cycle and have all gone to absolute dog poo poo while sa is just mostly tedious unfunny meme bullshit

I'm one of the only posters to join sa for AI instead of games so I didn't even look at dnd until after lf died.

BTW these are all the same complaints made by lf about dnd just with some minor updates. Not to be all nothing has changed because overall the forums have gotten more inclusive and less regressive but that the complaints are basically the same. hive mind has no meaning anymore and I wish the Nazis could at least be creative instead of always sticking to the same dumb words to complain about their free speech being infringed upon.

Not in person. The trip to the capital in high school was more than my parents could pay and since I became an adult I sure as hell haven't had the time or money in the same place.

They are an important detail, though. The framing of Lincoln by the fasces is meant to emphasise the United States' understanding of themselves as a fascist country.
