I have the impression that whenever people do this kind of thing, they genuinely feel like they are doing some kind of just & noble self-sacrifice in the name of freedom, like their great-grandparents must have felt when they stormed the beaches of Normandy and ran into machine-gun fire in order to stop Nazism.

Genesplicer is an MVP because he convinced a group of terrible posters to voluntarily leave the site and throw cash at Lowtax as a way of "owning" him.

I don't really mean the "Basement Crew" or Krusty stuff in particular, but more like, that people doing Ban Me threads often seem less like they are making a parting joke, and more as if they take themselves really super seriously and think that they are doing something really grandiose.

It is an Ask/Tell thread with an auto-bannable thread tag selection, instantly banning the poster and putting the thread into the gas chamber. The thread topic is Ask me about being legally blind.

Literally years and years. He first started posting in the thread in Dec 2008 but started making posts saying nothing but "ape fight" in August 2009 and kept going until December 2012.

Confession time: although this image was made jokingly, Kim Jong UN actually does have a Steam account, and I'm one of his friends on Steam. He and I were playing WarGame: Red Dragon just the other day, in fact.



He picked North Korea (as usual) and I picked the USSR. We matched up against some NATO scrubs and after a quick and easy victory, he said to me, "I don't get it Lumpy, why don't more big-shot game developers make good real-time strategy games anymore? This genre still has a lot of room for potential."

I just told him, "well, Kim, it's because a lot of that market has been sapped away by simpler, less macro-oriented strategy games, like MOBAs. Blame the DOTArds." He didn't say much after that, and seemed deep in thought. I doubt he dwelt on it too much.

I love how minimal the response was. Every single time a few people pointed it out or played into the joke and then it just fades into the chatter of the thread.
