That’s the thing with most SA sagas: a lot of details get warped and lost and become ways to mock a group of people instead of rightfully mocking the participants themselves.

OK tribe GO! Nah I didn’t think it was just SA. I do wish we had clearer details on some stories to compare how far they got out of proportion, or more complete information so we got the truth, but it’s the internet so welp.

I can't find the announcement post he made but basically his back is all hosed up and he had to have surgery to remove multiple discs. edit: oh yeah and the forums are also bleeding him dry so now's probably a good time to spend money on the forums to try and keep lowtax alive and this place around.

The pertinent question here is how can we convince people to buy new accounts and the accompanying perks such as archives etc? The best solution I’ve come up with so far is that when a new account is purchased I will give them a kiss. No tongue, this is gonna stay classy, no groping. Also, the kiss is not optional.

Just donate some money through the forums link, the fees are minimal and the money is injected straight into Lowtax's spine.
|
# ? Mar 30, 2018 06:00 |

Also since $1 is the same physical size as $100 it’s best to donate $1 100 times to pack in as much of his missing spine space as possible.

Helldump. Even worse considering it's where a lot of Extremely Online people honed their skills, and now there's hundreds, even thousands of places using Helldump's own formula and methods.

Did Helldump ever go after someone's irl details? I'm mostly sure they only ever went after people's online portfolio unless I was missing out on some really gross poo poo somewhere.

Came up in another thread, that Helldump and communities like it, based on identifying valid targets and mocking and victimising them for the amusement of all, inevitably end up utterly toxic hellpits and ultimate turning on themselves the moment that valid targets start becoming scarce or boring, and also produce people who've learned how to manipulate entire communities into basically witch-hunting targets based on their own idea of transgressive behaviour, while avoiding the consequences themselves by becoming a community pillar and deflecting aggression onto outsiders as more valid targets. It's a pattern that's repeated itself many times across the internet, from tumblr to the alt-right.

Peanut Butler posted:all the Second Life griefing I took part in was mostly poking fun at people who took SL as seriously as their FL Yeah, it was more fun watching Anshe Chung and the Serious Business Pixel Tycoon types get griefed than like the Shadow the Hedgehog cosplayers using sex pose balls in their Castle Robotnik bondage dungeon or whatever. At least those people were consenting adults, doing their thing in an adults-only sim and not hurting anyone. (Hopefully.) I never went in for the pick-on-the-freaks stuff, anyway, I preferred to annoy the people who seemed too full of themselves to be having fun. I wasn't a part of W-Hat or any other established griefer group, and by the time Second Life Safari started up, I was growing out of my angry-edgy-20something phase (and having actual fun in SL building crazy Googie architecture stuff) so I didn't follow it. Then again, Anshe Chung is probably still sitting on piles of real life money and I'm lucky if there's enough in the food budget for the fancy mac and cheese this week, so WHO GRIEFED WHOM Howard Beale has a new favorite as of 09:53 on Apr 1, 2018 |

I think I've mentioned it before, but I really wish that Second Life had been better and not full of weird sex maniacs. The potential was always there. Someone I know did some indie record release on there, and we all got to listen to it "live" and it all seemed pretty cool. Welp.
