Jenner was a really bad poster(really, really bad) but I still don't think she deserved to be permad for a joke that Lowtax didn't understand. I mean she probably would've melted down and been permad anyway but

I do find it very funny that Lowtax misses obvious jokes in his quest to make the forums funnier again.

But yes, Jenner deserved to be banned for lack of brevity if nothing else.

I don't like Jenner but pretty much.

Permabans for that sort of thing are dumb. Just regular ban her and let her keep paying :10bux: if she cares that much.

lol I didn't know about that voidburger and psychedelic eyeball drama, I remember I tried watching one of pe's LP once and his voice was insufferable

also there was that one LPer whose name I can't remember who grew noticeably weirder and weirder in his interactions with another LPer, I'm pretty sure her name was skoolmunkee

then one day/night he straight up starts tweeting he's going to kill himself because she doesn't like him like he likes her and eventually he's banned

that was so unexpected, although he always did sound like a creep like 90% of LPers

he did have good points re: the schmorky thread had run its course, was being artificially extended past its sell-by-date and didn't have anything new besides photoshops and the like
but like the way he went about it i just felt kind of embarrassed by proxy every single time he'd post

I mean before the longcat meltdown it was multiple pages of him responding to any post with all-caps rants about repeating the same jokes over and over again, which is just kind of sad. It's literally one thread in one forum and I don't get why he couldn't just be like "welp this thread is poo poo I'm out" and had to make two dozen posts that were like "HEY YOU GUYS LOL POO POO PEE PEE I'M SO FUNNY GUYS THIS THREAD SURE IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!"

I don't even necessarily agree that BBG was absolutely in the right. Sure, people were circle-jerking over the same bad photoshops and chatlogs, but everyone posting seemed to be amusing themselves, so who really cares if they're just rehashing the same dumb jokes over and over? It's certainly not cause to have a gigantic loving freakout over.
I don't think the thread would have been closed when it was if BBG hadn't come in and had a gigantic screaming tantrum about a thread he thought was stupid and also intentionally trying to make the thread literally impossible to load properly
