There definitely seems to be a correlation between popularity with goons and it being eventually revealed to be a scam or inferior service in some way. There was the resume writing goon, the "swole pt" guy (although I may be misremembering it being a scam, but I'm pretty sure I remember some drama about him), now the jerky goon.

That said, I have used the tax goon for my returns a couple times and haven't been audited and/or arrested yet so maybe there are some good ones left.

What makes it are the dev's extremely defensive reactions after each and every criticizm and his meltdowns about things like changing the thread title or people publically posting PMs. In the end he had a bot set up only for closing the thread any time we reopened it.

Also no guillotines in a game about The French Revolution.

Is there a source on this besides a few contradictory posts in GBS? Looks like fatty jerky guy's 12 year-old thread is still going.

CONTENT: Man, am I glad I dug up that old PYF Trainwrecks thread, because I've been able to revisit some classics I'd forgotten about. Here's one that's goldmined, so all can enjoy. The title's innocuous ("is my bi girlfriend worth it?"), but wait for the quiet bomb drop on page 2.

It must have been earlier because they were straight up porn games and the forum was weirdly tolerant of it. People were TV-IVing the thread and getting into the story.

imo it's a law of SA that goons will post porn and nudity anywhere that it's even slightly tolerated. i think a year or 3 ago there were some threads in PYF about porn, yet PYF had a no-NWS rule at that time. these threads skirted around this by just discussing "oh yes, look at this SFW picture of this porn performer i like, also did you know she was in this one movie and you can find it for free at www dot pornotubesite dot fart?? wink wink nudge nudge"

and while it wasn't technically NWS, i remember early versions of the YOSPOS pics thread being pretty heavy on booth babes. so much so that eventually there was a rule change banning it. this was because the mod at the time (cidrick) had to read the thread but he kept getting yelled at by his wife, who would look over and see him scrolling through pages of scantily-clad women holding computer motherboards

those threads were actually excepted from the NSFW rule, iirc. No idea why, though

There's no colour on the steak at all though, so it's more like a pan warmed steak.

I think the general idea was " Even a SFW work porn thread would not be safe to read at work, so go ahead and post porn". It's safe to assume in a thread about porn and pornstars any link you posted was going to be someone taking yards of dick. Those threads were great though, you had people come in and say things like "I'm trying to track down a scene I downloaded off of limewire 7 years ago.The bed had blue sheets and the girl had on converse sneakers" and within seconds you'd have some goon pop in with the girls name, all the other scenes she's done, the movie the scene came from and a poo poo ton of links.

Someone in tff or cineD had that happen too, a couple years ago. He was visiting some girlfriend at a house near Nawleans or something iirc and didn't realize he was locked in til a day later when she went to work. Everyone kept telling him to break a window or call the cops but he didn't.
