I can't think of more kiwifarms worthy behavior than thinking up stupid conspiracy theories why Lowtax won't do what you want to immediately and assigning the worst motivations out of whole cloth possible, maybe you doomsayers should all go there.

I would like it if the Kiwifarms ads stopped because KF is not a place you should be encouraging people to support

Maybe just buy the No Ads upgrade or block that ad if you don't want to see it? It's not like removing the ad from the site will make Kiwi Farms magically disappear from the internet. I don't get why they still have an entire subforum dedicated to DSP in 2018. He's probably going to own himself a couple more times and then fade into obscurity once he stops making money off streams. Really only merits a single thread.

Manky posted:For what it's worth I PMed lowtax about the new lovely ad some days ago and he replied. I tried arguing and he responded politely but disappointingly. It might be worth others sending him short, courteous messages but currently he does know about the ad and is allowing it to run. So the answer is no, the ad isn't going anywhere until its completion.

I'm curious, are the people angry about Lowtax keeping the kiwifarms ad still going to keep giving the site and Lowtax money? For real, because I've noticed that a lot of the same people who keep complaining about Lowtax's offsite behavior and supposed gently caress-ups also still keep giving Lowtax money in spite of it. It's weird and strange, but it happens anyways. A lot.

botany posted:"people are trying to change a website they care about for the better, how strange" A website run by a dude who decided he was okay with this, and is going to continue to be okay with things similar to this in the future. Like if things were going to change it would have happened in 2014 or so when he was going around saying 'things are totally going to change!' Supporting him in spite of all this isn't going to encourage him to change, either. I sometimes struggle to understand the cult-like devotion this internet forum commands, in spite of the fact that in terms of personality its owner has always been pretty much exactly the same problematic shitlord trapped in 2003 as the ones current day users like to keep howling about in dedicated mock threads. I think it's all pretty creepy. And it's really only going to get creepier as time goes on. And at least the lovely Neogaf dude posts on his forums more than once per lunar cycle.

botany posted:if you think i'm lowtax's biggest fan then lmao I'm way past (1) at this point. But while I get that people who are not on board with Lowtax as a person might still like the website he made, the two are inseparable. Supporting SA is always going to mean supporting Lowtax, and that does mean financially backing a dude even if he does something you think is hosed up. And doing that is a nonstarter for more than a few people here whenever it's for something not SA related. I don't feel that the site is still good enough to warrant that sort of exception. Personally I just get by via insulating myself in a deep layer of cynical apathy while simultaneously cultivating a sense of childlike wonder and curiosity towards forums drama like whatever we've got going on right now. Also the GBS thread over this has been closed so I guess the two main places for discussing the Kiwifarms ad are now this thread, but, also Kiwifarms.

Lowtax posted:I'm aware that poo poo is bannable here, which is why we've always banned it. I have zero problem with KF buying a banner ad here though, because to me it's a honeypot for garbage posters that I do not want posting here. Any moron who goes there and thinks "boy, these people are funny and this site is good, I think I should stay and post here" deserves to stay there and get the gently caress off these forums. No sane, rational, or decent poster will go to KF and become a regular there for the rest of their life. I have absolutely zero issue with having the trash here get up and go somewhere else, and I'm absolutely against the notion that it's my job to retain the users who consider KF to be a great site. gently caress em, let em go and post there all they want, try to convince me we're losing something of value here.

I’m more like a bleary eyed stepfather who, while finding his step-son much too embarrassing to ever love let alone be proud of, is at least vaguely grateful that they haven’t done a mass shooting. You might be grateful the admins didn’t immediately announce Null was buying the forums wholesale, but you can’t really be proud just because they cleared a bar so low they could have stepped on it.
